On topic after topic, President Trump made clear that he would be the arbiter of any limits to his authorities, not international law or treaties.

Its not like the American Revolution and Constitution are total rejections of this view or anything.

I mean, if they had just kidnapped Maduro to try him and didn't pretend to own Venezuela otherwise...there could be a way to say it was arresting a criminal (who happens to be a head of state and has diplomatic immunity, but then you could argue that since Venezuela is not on paper a dictatorship and he stole the election, he is not the legitimate head of state...ok...take him to the ICJ, then, which you don't recognize...so...uh...jurisdiction...no...)

But when captain orange shitass says that they will run Venezuela, claim "victory", take the oil, threaten more attacks, not run new elections, not talk to neighbouring countries or allies when they have nothing, just the threat of getting themselves into another Vietnam with all of South America...it is not even just illegal, it is dumb.

A California-based biotechnology startup has officially launched the world's first commercially available butter made entirely from carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and oxygen, eliminating the need for traditional agriculture or animal farming. Savor, backed by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates through his Breakthrough Energy Ventures fund, announced the commercial release of its animal- and plant-free butter after three years of development.

The revolutionary product uses a proprietary thermochemical process that transforms carbon dioxide captured from the air, hydrogen from water, and methane into fat molecules chemically identical to those found in dairy butter. According to the company, the process creates fatty acids by heating these gases under controlled temperature and pressure conditions, then combining them with glycerol to form triglycerides.

I've found so many variations e.g.

soak for 6 hours (minimize fermentation), soak for 3 days (to maximize available nutrients and purge phytic acid);

scrub to remove skins, or don't;

change water...or don't;

blend, boil, strain;

blend, strain, boil;

boil, blend, no straining;

Boil no more than 15 minutes or it will taste like miso paste Vs 20 minutes...Vs longer because beans take a long time to cook

extra condiments or thickeners Vs just sugar.

Sooo...has anyone tried a few of these to tell me which differences to expect?

I was leaning towards soak 24h, scrub skins, boil 15m, blend (my blender is not that strong, so that's why I'm boiling first, add sugar (no straining).

Is there a configuration that is less bitter or closer to nut milk? I'm trying to understand why I am doing things, so that I can control it, otherwise I'm just following random recipes and tweaking with no idea what's happening :P

PS: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GWoP0lc-KqY&amp%3Bpp=ygUIc295IG1pbGs%3D added this recipe with the "burnt pan" trick.

 
 

We are familiar with the social "id" through mob dynamics, crowd control. But is there anything akin to the ego and superego for society or groups? Maybe the media act as a bit of a superego on societies...but maybe the concept just does not extend that easily.

 

Turns out schools of fish hang out around sharks to use their skin as an exfoliator 🤣 and to tag along and save energy.
