I do mine in a half gallon mason jar. I've got fermenting lids that help me pull the air out just in case but that shouldn't be needed. I'd avoid letting it be exposed to too much air though so maybe not a pot for the souring stage

Edit to add, I really like bon appetit videos, here is one about yogurt: https://youtu.be/D6IyyFc1RqI?si=NxZTYsx-2l3ED1e5

I know you didn't ask for it but I'm really excited about what I've been up to so here's the process: Heat milk to 180-185f basically right as it starts to foam, let it cool to 110, mix in a spoonful of yogurt (I started with store bought Greek then keep a starter from each batch to make the next), let it sit somewhere warm for 6-24 hours. The oven with the light on works well enough but there are lots of options. Then bam you've got more yogurt! I like to whisk mine to make it a bit smoother and I've been having a glass every morning with some cherry juice mixed in, 2 parts yogurt to 1 part juice

I've been making my own yogurt lately a half gallon at a time. It's dummy easy and comes out a bit thinner than most store yogurt. It works really well as a drink or smoothie base

He's talking like my grandpa did a few weeks before he dropped dead, so fingers crossed I guess

Holy shit I did not expect that. A lot of the same mannerisms are there in proto-form but he's actually talking like a human it's super weird to see

Spray cheese, Ritz, topped with a pizza roll. It was one of my "treating myself" staples in college

We're midway through passing the blame torch. Soon they'll drop the millennial part and it'll just be "gen Z is killing an expensive or shitty industry how could they!"

"pay that debt later on", nothings more permanent than temporary. In my experience things are more likely to default than get paid lol

Came here for the Morrowind crowd. Love that game so much

I bought a 1200w PSU in like 2011 and it's chugging along through multiple upgrades and two different builds. They forgot to put the quit in that one

I did read about damaging effects of oyster farms though

Yeah no monoculture farm is without it's damage, for sure, but oysters are real low on the list. They are filter feeders so don't need any additional food source or fertilizer you just seed them somewhere and pull them out as needed. A single one filters something like fifty gallons of water a day, capture carbon for their shells, and they're incredible at pulling heavy metals out of the water but that's not something they're utilized for at scale afaik because then humans wouldn't want to eat those ones

I am not a biologist but my understanding is that largely has to do with a lack of central nervous system. It would be like asking if a heart is aware of itself. It can autonomously react to things like low oxygen but that isn't because those signals go anywhere that makes a decision it's more like a chemical/biological Rube Goldberg machine. If you really want to get down to it though I don't think we can know for certain just make educated guesses, and imo oysters are even less likely to have any form of consciousness than a lot of plants or mushrooms

One of my exes is very strictly vegetarian and will eat oysters. Oysters lack the capacity to consciously be aware of themselves or the environment, effectively they're a water pump made out of meat, and they're one of the most sustainable foods we can make leading to less planetary harm than a lot of plant crops even. It's definitely a controversial opinion though

My favorite tactic used by several of the coffee shops near me is they start slowly turning the music louder. People naturally start leaving once it's too loud to think or talk. Place I used to work at we'd turn off half the lights and everyone would just show up at the register no confrontation needed. People were fine with it a vast majority of the time but occasionally there would be someone who asked us to turn the lights back on so they could keep shopping

Sounds like it is not going to go better :/ I hope they can keep up the fight

Hopefully it goes better than when Unity internally resisted against military contracts. Their response to us was to restrict how we could communicate, stall until we lost steam, fire select people for code of conduct, and freeze any internal discourse that got too anti military but let the pro military ones run wild

Factor and cook unity got me through my surgery recovery and divorce (same time!). They're great options. I prefer cook unity but my understanding is it's local chefs so ymmv, and since it is less industrialized sometimes the meals are a bit odd like they stopped giving a fuck about ratios that day and just slapped whatever in there

Fam they gave you the reason, you know almost nothing about their situation, show more empathy

Please no I finally got mine removed. I'd maybe go for ovarian cancer tho
