Potassium depletion in soil threatens global crop yields (www.ucl.ac.uk)

Potassium deficiency in agricultural soils is a largely unrecognised but potentially significant threat to global food security if left unaddressed, finds new research involving researchers at UCL, University of Edinburgh and the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology....

Francisco ,

What do you even mean with your word salad?

Your first sentence/paragraph is absurd in the post’s context. Crop rotation will not replenish the soils’ potassium.

And in your 2nd paragraph… what do you mean by “similar purpose”? It’s ambiguous, how you have used it. Also, do you know anything of how fertilizers work?

Quick quiz: Wheat has b12 vitamin and iodine, can you just eat more bread to replenish your body’s neads for those nutrients? Or does a balanced diet need to be …balanced for all nutrients?

Musk see!

EDIT: I think Musk went of the rails after he got COVID, I speculate. It’s my own take on creating a conspiracy theory.

“Who would have known that the mighty people of Yemen would challenge the empires of the world,” he added, referring to the Houthi attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea that have led to two nights of retaliatory strikes by the US and UK.

This does not sound like somebody interested in promoting peace.

Could the solution to the decades-long battle against malaria be as simple as soap?

No. And not simple.

What a terrible choice of title.

If adding hand-wash dish soap works with a family of insecticides but not with another one, it’s not simple. And it’s not just the soap. Also the ‘new’ insecticides, neocotinoids, are quite problematic on their own, which also makes them not simple to use.

Francisco ,

It is explained in the link.

A hint, just after the title: “MIT engineers and collaborators developed a solar-powered device that avoids salt-clogging issues of other designs.”

Francisco ,

It is the same thing.

Is this moka pot fixable? (lemmy.world)

Found this moka pot at a friend’s relative’s house, they said it’s been in their family for a bit over a decade. It just broke about a week ago, but it seems like it means a lot to them. Unfortunately they’re a little too old to check out how to get it fixed, so I’m thinking of doing it for them in the near future just...

Francisco ,

You say it broke relatively recently, so likely only one thing has failed. That seems to be the o-ring. As others have said, that is easily replaceable.

But …

I think you haven’t included all the parts in the photo. Or is that just it?

What is the status of the funnel where you place the ground coffee?

Also, how does the side safety valve look like? It should be on the side of the bottom compartment. The moka works with vapour pressure. A good valve is needed.

As others said, NO dishwasher. And I would also avoid much scrubbing. The moka is made out of aluminum which is a soft metal, easily damaged by acids, and with harsh scrubbing.

How do I tame my frustration toward my aging parents?

My parents are 57 and 63. My mother is erratic, forgetful, and when she gets mad she sometimes screams and throws things. My father is slowly going deaf, getting slower and more stubborn and forgetful as well. They can be infuriating sometimes, but I know that they’re aging and I can’t be mad at them. How do I deal with...

Francisco ,

Hmmm…

I think I can see where that took you.

On this subject, the shallowness of your thoughts is only matched by the authoritative way in which you express them.

Can I suggest you to allow yourself to be left your thoughts to think it over.

Even if you don't do anything special, you could be the catalyst for someone else to do something special.

Just wondering about how my life could have touched someone else’s and I realized this. Maybe you’re just joking around online and mention something that triggers an idea in someone else that leads to revolutionary new things that impact humans everywhere. Even if you’re forgotten, or uncredited, you had a meaningful...

damaging homeowners and the broader financial system in the country.

Or, showing that current homeowners overpaid, opening the door to new homeowners and allowing the broader financial system to have losses we all knew were possible.

Francisco ,

PeerTube looks quite promising with its decentralised model. Surely it will never be perfect. But decentralisation is essencial. Also because the types of videos I like to see in YouTube either are monetised by themselfs in some way. Or are not monetised at all. YouTube does not seem necessary for those creators.

Francisco ,

The Hexbear thread on federation: www.hexbear.net/post/280770 – read it yourself.

To me it reads like a plan to increase their reach with preventive instructions on how to avoid being ‘influenced’ by outsiders’ opinions.

My guesstimation is that it is a disinformation machine based on useful idiots.

Francisco , (edited )

From reading that thread it is not just a socialist instance.

They are instructing their members on how to relate to others, how to react to outsiders comments in their communities, and how to protect themselves from outsiders opinions. To me that sounds like cult level brainwashing techniques.

Another word that comes to mind is brigading.

Francisco ,

Thanks for the answer but I can only understand your first sentence. After that I have no clue about what you mean .

Francisco ,

Maybe I’m misunderstanding all the Russia-Ukraine-NATO section.

Francisco ,

Thanks for offering your perspective. Maybe I’m too cynical. Or maybe I’m reading to much into the Russia-Ukraine-Nato thing.

In any case, at current information, I can both accept the defederation, or just teaching people that they can choose and block specific users and communities.

Francisco ,

Please,

discussing a complex geopolitical situation

Is not

telling their users to be nice to others and not break the rules of other instances

You are not being consistent.

Also, an admin detailing how to think about a complex geopolitical situation is not discussing.
