thanks for the lead, i did some more reading and found this article in a scientific journal about its natural predators in Turkey. so hoverflies, lacewings, ladybugs (which i saw on the bushes too) and other beetles eat the larvae.

there are still too many tho so i might gather some into a terrarium and try and trick them into pupating and emerging in the winter. i think they become really pretty small black wasps, so i'll take photos with a magnifying glass, let them live happily and die of old age, then leave any eggs to freeze outside or sum.

OP, all the bots are digital ghosts haunting you until you resolve their unfinished business

HAPPY SPOOKY SEASON!!!!👻🎃

there's no buoyancy without gravity, so the steam evaporating from the fry creates an insulating bubble-blanket that stops it from cooking properly:

so the fryer has to be on a centrifuge, but it's better to spin at 3g than 1g cuz it fries faster and forms a crispier crust.

the steam bubbles get pulled away faster in the increased buoyancy, so there's more heat transfer. past 3g's though, steam bubbles start forming inside the french fry to make hollow holes that could potentially explode during cooking. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0963996913005929

i dont know if this is useful information that you'll ever use

sometimes life feels like a rollercoaster, but the track is in a superposition state where i'm simultaneously being pushed up and falling down and turning right and left, and all at different angles.

but as long as we all help one another, we can make each other feel like we're on a smooth train ride together, comfortably going to where we need to be.

have you considered pivoting away from socks towards mittens for feet?

i think you have a narrow view of what education is. this is subjective but my view of education is that it's an emergent property; as long as there's different individuals that know different skills, natural networks will form of people teaching to anyone that wants to learn.

whether it's institutions with professors teaching about quantum physics and brain surgery, to herds of dinosaurs teaching groups of young their migration paths and dangers to avoid; it's all within my personal concept of what education is

nothing is futile, convince other voters that the MP isn't listening and shouldn't be your representative anymore. if your mind is set for giving up on government action, then support third party organizations that build ev chargers and teach people how to run and maintain them and stuff. i agree that we need more accountability for elected officials, but to get electoral reform you still need your MP to vote for it. i don't think it's good to completely give up on participating as a citizen within a state, though we still need some direct action as a form of direct democracy outside of established structures and systems

wait so if data is like dna, does that make computers like plants with their pollen being data packets like memes, articles, and videos... and we're the pollinators?

cool i learned that the moon is gay and hollow, and that a lunar restaurant would hold a captive customer base

the base needs a greenhouse to grow moon marijuana

we need our top food scientists on this pronto
