Mine was brought back from about this state when a friend gave it to me, so recovery is possible.
Mine thrives with indoor lighting and a little natural light, so don't fret as long as its not full sun or in a closet it should be fine.
Warmth can just be "not really cold" for people. Anything above 15C is probably passable. So long as its in your house it shouldn't perish, it might just slow its growth if you don't have a heater on high.
Humidity might be an issue and over or under watering. If you live someplace where the air is very dry it could be challenging as you'd have to dote on it to keep it in the sweet spot water wise.
Autobrewery syndrome is rare and probably has more to do with your diet and antibiotic use than consuming a few actively fermenting drinks.
Some drinks like pulque are traditionally drunk that way and that's why they can't be shipped long distances. So if its been done by other cultures for thousands if years, I'm not a doctor, but I'm gonna wager its fairly safe.
Just use Firefox's reader view and refresh and 95% of paywalls or adblocker blocks disappear.
The Federal Government actually owns most of the west. Its the reason why there's more land for public recreation and national parks in that region of the country.
You can typically hike, camp, or explore BLM land, which is the majority of it, as much as you want so long as you don't start any fires or litter.
It was only a gallon. The disappointment is mostly that I won't have a really weird drink this year.
I've heard cider can be made with unripe apples. Might be worth a shot.
I've got my continuous brew of kombucha going for my daily consumption.
On the more interesting side, I've got some spruce tip mead going which I'm hoping turns out well. There was a little bit of a scare where I was concerned it could be infected, but it seems fine.
Sadly, I was doing an experiment with sea lovage spiced mead which succumbed to mold and needed to be dumped. Something to retry next year.
This year's berry harvest is basically FUBAR. Global warming did a number on it so now there's near zero salmonberries and the ones which did appear are partially desiccated or only half ripe. So no salmonberry wine this year, probably even not enough for jam :(
Blueberries are way too early, but they're tasting fine at least. I'll probably try a blueberry wine or mead. Encountered a few hiccups last year because of their acidity, but I'm better equipped this year so hopefully that turns out well and I can bottle some stuff for the winter.
He has fortunately lost. Though I'm sure this same idea will be floated in the future by some AIs-are-gods type.
The US wasn't conducting a genocidal war in Afghanistan. The Russian government is explicitly attempting to erase Ukraine as an entity and anyone who calls themselves Ukrainian with it.
The Raccoon for Lemmy app has some weird bugs, one of them is marking draft posts NSFW without telling you. The post should be fixed now.
They went for a catchy headline which doesn't quite fit, but I'm a sucker for musing on ecology.
I don't think this is about making autistic people go away or find a "cure". Even if we eliminated all BPA magically, people are still going to be born with autism.
As the study explains, its probably only one element of how autism develops, but understanding how environmental toxins effect human development is important.
That's not typically possible. The study shows how BPA acts like human hormones. It might be impossible to target it without also effecting the normal hormones or receptors.
Ngl I kinda want zeplin public transit.
neither party when elected do anything meaningful to secure the border or deport illegals.
It might shock you to learn the best way to prevent immigration is to make the countries experiencing outflows more stable and liveable, but I'm gonna take a wild guess you don't like foreign aid.
maintain demographics
There sure was a lot of hand wringing before you wrote down what your actual problem with immigration was.
Pray tell what is the ideal demographic make up if the United States?

Imagine branding yourself with the image of a way to circumvent state authority only to lick the boot at the first opportunity.
This thread is getting heated. Please remember to be respectful to other users.
Sadly, this is probably true.
