That's pretty metal, not gonna lie

Yeah, different cheese work better in different contexts. You wouldn't want a pile of shredded mozzarella for a cheese plate nor would you want slices of deli cheese for a pizza

I like violife for places where I'd use shredded cheese. It's a decent option for pizza and especially for tacos. I just wish it was as rich in protein as animal cheese

Cheese has been one of the hardest things for my partner and I to give up

It's cheap, tasty, and it's a decent source of protein

We're finally getting tasty vegan cheese (Rebel cheese is a favorite of ours) but it's expensive and often is pure fat.

I'm hoping we'll get more innovation in vegan cheeses but in the meanwhile I'm going to keep looking for good alternatives

I'm not sure what you mean by "advanced" but they're really not

An Immense World by Ed Yong had a section on Mantis Shrimp and while their fascinating creatures with a really interesting vision system, their color perception isn't all it's cracked up to be

I'm reciting this from memory so if anyone knows better please correct me:

Mantis Shrimp have compound eyes with three sections: 1) the main section detects movement and is what they primarily use to see 2) the second section detects color. When the shrimp detects movement it will look at whatever it was with it's color detecting section to determine if it's prey or predator. This is a whole separate section of the eye and is unlike how ours function. The reason why the shrimp has so many detectors is because, unlike our eyes, the shrimps eyes don't combine different color receptors to see color. The book likened it to a bar code scanner that uses the presence of certain color combinations to detect what's there 3) one really neat thing the mantis Shrimp can do is see spiralized polarized light. We cannot see polarized light but there's a lot of b polarized light under the ocean so seeing it is fairly common. What's NOT common is polarized light that travels as a spiral. Mantis Shrimp seem to have evolved the ability to create spiralized polarized light and use it to communicate. As far as we know no other animal can make or see it.

In addition, government research in the sciences is miniscule. You could cut ALL of science funding and be no where close to the 1 trillion that Musk claims he'll be able to reduce the budget by

In 10-15 years people will be nastalgic for Fortnight the way people are nostalgic for Xbox 360 halo

Poultry is definitely the more climate friendly of the meats but it doesn't come without problems

There's still increased risks of pandemic with factory farmed chickens and most chickens are raised in inhumane conditions

Because the moon is moving away very slowly there will be a last total solar eclipse at some point. We're lucky to have such good ones currently

I've heard that's the plan. They're dedicating an hour to the presidential candidates. If only one shows up then that candidate gets the whole hour

Harris is showing within the margin of error for polls nationally

What we really want to do is look at her chances of winning each state to see the probable delegate total but it's WAY too early to tell and either way we shouldn't get complacent

Congrats on your son! I'm sure your support is going to help them tremendously as they discover themselves

Low quality information is easier to produce than high quality information

Even worse, while people prefer high quality information, the preference is weaker than other preferences, such as the desire to see things that are cute or make you angry

Pirates of the Burning Sea

Never heard of it, either

It's not a straw man, the guy knows what he's talking about. Destroying biodiversity is a major problem with a lot of tree farms and tree planting programs. Tree planting doesn't HAVE to do that but that kind of management is hard to do, like the guy said

Can you not afford an air conditioner? A heatpump is only marginally more expensive
