Those are self-explanatory:

Wow, you're right, it IS like Revelations!

It IS called grape fruit, not for its taste though, rather for the way the fruits grow in grape-like racemes ;)

That was before it has been fixed, now it's a neutrino.

They're hybrids, surprisingly though, they're not man-made, or not directly. People introduced oranges and pomelos to Barbados. But the plants then crossbread of their own will in the wild, creating grapefruits :)

I do agree it's easier to tweak the fruit.

Yeah, that's because grapefruits are pomelo and orange hybrids. And it's the only American native citrus. The parent species were brought to the Americas from Asia. They escaped from plantations, crossbread in the wild (in Barbados) and that's how grapefruits were born.

Also, pomelos are one of the few comercial citruses that are not hybrids, it's a botanic species (unlike oranges, lemons, limes and tangerines)

Omg I need that spoon, it's perfect!

[–] angrystego 1 points 5 days ago

Wtf? I've got everything crowded up at the highest level of tasty, including the lemon - nom nom!

You don't have to eat it, you know. And you won't have any medication problem. It's a complete win for you.

Do you have to meet the meteorologist and check his data and model to believe their weather forecast? Do you have to meet every single politician, scientist, news reporter, just everyone, to believe any news at all?

And if you heat any oil too much it starts producing carcinogenes. Butter is especially prone to do that even in relatively lower heat if it's not ghee. So it becomes toxic in a similar way as teflon is.

Why the downvotes when OP asks in this particular sub?

Saru (self.startrek)

I just started watching Discovery season 3. I was quite traumatized by the low quality of s02, but I decided to give season 3 a chance because I like most of the characters. Now comes the point. I do like Saru a lot nowadays, but at first I was put off a bit by his treatment of the tardigrade. Did any of you mind his lack of empathy for the animal? Or were you alright with him treating the creature as a resource without thinking twice? It feels kind of wrong to me when his own nation is treated as a resource on his home planet.

 

I'm using Firefox on an Android phone to view Lemmy. When I click a post at the second page of posts and go back after reading, it takes me to the first page of posts. Am I doing something wrong?

 

Why YSK: I use the web version of Lemmy both on desktop and mobile. By going directly to the 2nd page of posts, I get rid of both the neverending stream of new posts and of the same old posts that keep sticking to the 1st page. It works for all the filters: active, hot... No need to scroll down, just change the number in the end of the URL from 1 to 2 and save it to favourites or whatever.
