Annual hard rubbish week in Healesville. We just dragged out two decrepit bookshelves, close to a dozen broken plastic storage boxes, and a whole bunch of cardboard boxes--IN THE RAIN! Yes, I am wet!
Not our rubbish, but could be.

Around two years ago I told a room full of students studying education that scientists developing new materials was perhaps a bigger niche than computer programming for them to be promoting to their future students.
Scientists Create Biodegradable Packaging Film That Matches Plastic Performance
Biodegradable packaging film represents a breakthrough in sustainable materials. Researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology developed a thin film using cellulose, chitosan, and citric acid. These natural ingredients come from plants, mushrooms, and food waste. The new material blocks moisture and oxygen as effectively as traditional plastic.

Mais uma cientista brasileira notável, Dra. Mariangela Hungria, microbióloga do centro de pesquisa de soja da #Embrapa, passou décadas estudando bactérias que retiram nitrogênio do ar e o alimentam até as plantas.
O resultado: o Brasil passou da importação de fertilizantes nitrogenados para se tornar o maior exportador de soja do mundo – usando micróbios em vez de produtos químicos.
Seu trabalho ganhou o Prêmio Mundial de Alimentação de 2025. Mas o prêmio real é a redução de 40% no uso de fertilizantes sintéticos em toda a agricultura brasileira.
Não se trata apenas de soja. Trata-se de um modelo diferente de agricultura: fazer parceria com a biologia em vez de dominá-la.
As mulheres do Sul Global tem muita coisa para ensinar ao mundo!

Good morning.
Got a call from LBC in London asking if I could come on the radio in 20 mins to talk about the Tangerine Tyrant saying he's going to release all the US UFO files.
Reluctantly agreed, because it's yet another bullshit distraction from some other files.
Good news: presenter was the very sensible Matthew Wright & he agreed that it's all distraction & conspiracy theory wibble.
Better news: he effusively mentioned Space Rocks during the intro 🖖🙂🤘

As long as pirate Services have the better use experience, this sucks.
I also think that the DVB integrations for linear tv suck. Also you need a android device to get proper 4k streaming enabled on certain services.
as much as I like your posts, this one is crap.
Asians use palmoil naturally & they're not obese & don't get cancer etc
Palmoil is only a problem because it's cheap & the Western food industry uses it because of its features. Thoses masses are responsible for deforestation etc
To frame it as bad for your health is almost racist. And it feels like fatshaming.
I am clearly for boycot palmoil but not with this arguments
Today's #calligraphy practice: this now-classic copypasta from @lynnesbian (CC4.0-BY-NC-SA)
I think this nib probably needs replacing, it keeps chewing up the paper and as you can see the fibres occasionally caught in the nib drag the ink on certain strokes like the tails of "h", "k", and "a". It is a Hunt 22, on the stiffer side, not capable of the dramatic changes in line width you get with a 101 or my beloved Leonardt Principal, but good for smaller writing.
