Apologies Diego it is 6. Well spotted ya senile old fart The 7th, Triton the brightest is out of shot.
What would you eat to save the planet? please log in to view this image Adding sugars to powdered, cooked mealworms creates a seasoning with an appetizing “meatlike” odor, researchers report at the American Chemical Society fall meeting in Chicago. Some insects have been found to be an environmentally friendly alternative to other animal protein because they require less land and water to raise (SN: 5/11/19). But many people in the United States and other Western countries, where insects aren’t eaten widely, generally find the idea of chomping down on bugs unappetizing. “There aren’t a lot of people ready to fry up a whole skillet of crickets and eat them fresh,” says Julie Lesnik, a biological anthropologist at Wayne State University in Detroit who wasn’t involved in the new research. Finding out how to make insect-based foods more appealing could be key to making them more mainstream. And one successful insect-based product could have a snowball effect for similar food. “It’s really great that this research is happening, because at any point this might be the thing that people figure out and then it explodes,” says Brenden Campbell, an insect agriculturist based in Eugene, Ore. He has studied mealworms and created a company called Planet Bugs to, in part, make insect-based food products. Steamed mealworms produced a sweet smell, like corn, while roasted and fried mealworms released chemicals more similar to meat and seafood. In their latest work, the team then keyed in on what combinations of water, sugars and cooking time produced a particularly meaty smell, and tested these concoctions with volunteers to figure out which smelled the most appealing. Using insects ground up or in seasonings could help people get past their hesitations about eating whole bugs, says Amy Wright, who has written a book on eating bugs. (She, for one, has no qualms. A literature professor at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tenn., Wright used to keep mealworms in her apartment, which she would use in sandwiches and guacamole.) “There are plenty of things that are disgusting to us, but we have engineered around it,” Lesnik says. “We’re just seeing insects being treated like any other food, and yeah, we’re talking aroma … but that’s what the engineers of Doritos are doing.” Fck that!
Riding a motorbike in the sixties at up to 100mph gives you an insight into eating insects Providing you grit your teeth you can wipe them of teeth before you eat or drink anything
I think it was @PINKIE recently that was discussing vortex or spirals that can be observed on our planet, can't see where he posted it, but this is a simple explanation of what is happening - you can eventually ff to 2.13 to get to the bit piskie was chatting about it... My next question was to be, so where is the sun going? I asked google the question: The Sun and the entire solar system orbits around the center of the Milky Way galaxy. The average velocity of the solar system is 828,000 km/hr. At that rate it will take about 230 million years to make one complete orbit around the galaxy. So my next question was, how many times has our sun orbited our Milky Way to date? The Sun orbits the galactic center in a nearly circular orbit around the galactic center. The Sun makes one orbit around the Milky Way roughly once every 225 million years and is thought to have made this journey some 20 times since its earliest days as a protostar.30 Jun 2020. Even at my age, that means I've only just opened the door to go for a very long flight.
and more, disputing the above theories... https://www.universetoday.com/107322/is-the-solar-system-really-a-vortex/ Is the solar system really a vortex? The short answer? No. Not in the way that a popular animated gif insinuates, at least. If you’re even a casual space fan you may have seen a viral gif animation showing our solar system traveling through space, the motions of the planets tracing corkscrew “vortex” paths around a line-driving Sun. While it’s definitely intriguing to watch (in that mesmerizingly-repetitive gif fashion) and rendered with a talented flair for design, there are two fundamental problems with it. One: it’s not entirely correct, scientifically, and two: its creator’s intention is to illustrate a decidedly un-scientific point of view about the Solar System and the Universe as a whole. For the long answer, I now offer up the stage to astrophysicist (see article in link posted above) Maybe Monty Python would be better to explain it...
Not sure if this sounds cool or horrific. 24 hour restaurants should be more of thing though. No cash, obviously https://www.joe.co.uk/food/first-ev...068rJq0Skf1IReB0MquZstoKJY#l8ihu666lg7lg7l3kd
Meal kits. Sounds errrr lovely. May seem like a silly question but I'm wondering why we need restaurants without humans?
Do robots prepare it live when you order it? or is it a vending machine popping out expensive pot noodles?
I wondered the same. At some point I think a human has to put these meal kits together. If it's a robot slopping/sqeezing/dumping it in, on a mass conveyor belt, then it doesn't sound very appetising. Not that it does anyway tbh.
a human puts a pot noodle together too at some stage…doesn’t qualify it as restaurant food init I want my **** cooked on order if I’m in a ‘restaurant’ This absurd idea needs its own name
