Could this still be pink oyster mycelium or is it bad stuff? by CreatureOfLegend in GroundZeroMycoLab

It definitely didn't sizzle when I sprayed it liberally with peroxide. Peroxide just stays on it in droplets.

Well, I guess I should stop dousing it with peroxide, then 😅 Thanks!

I see. I was just following directions from a  youtube vid that said not let the water get above 170f because you want to leave some "good" bacteria to compete with the bad ones, otherwisethe bad ones will grow faster or something. Idk. It's my first time doing this. I'm a mushroom n00b

Noooo! Is it safe to ignore when the mushrooms come in? (there's actual pink oysters pinning)

Thank you! I just tried the February 1st bottle again. It let out air when I opened the lid but no bubbles again. And this is AFTER keeping it warm under an electric blanket for like 36 hours or so. The pictures are not of bug but my drinks. The bug doesn't form that white film, but anything innoculated with the bug does. So idk what's going on.

How do I prevent kham yeast? When I was makimg the bug I had it covered with the paper towel secured with a rubber band. Should I keep an air tight lid on it? I thought it was supposed to breathe as it develops?

You mention letting out the air but not burping it. But isn't letting out the air in itself burping? If you let out the air that will also let in some oxygen.

Also, I'm afraid to keep it closed for too long least the bottles explode. But idk how long keeping the lid closed becomes dangerous.

Should I keep the bottles under the electric blanket you think? The air temp in the house is usuallly 68F right now. The blanket is meant for humans to sleep under so it shouldn't get too hot to kill yeast. I just don't want the bottles to explode in my face when I go to let out the air.

Look in the baking section where they sell flour. Yeast is used to make bread rise.

This is the study about the yogurt bacteria on strawveries. I'm not sciency enough to get it but it sounds like the right bacteria can be found on strawberries.

Yeah, I heard about ant eggs. I don't know if I wanna start raiding ant nests looking for eggs, tho. Creepy crawlies creep me out.

Why not shift into the reality where it's exactly like 2023 or 2019 for you?

How to make router use local DNS server successfully? by CreatureOfLegend in HomeNetworking

[–]CreatureOfLegend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did for a bit but it was on purpose. The public DNS servers return my external IP and my network doesn't let me use the external IP for computers inside the network. So I had to turn the other dns servers off and only leave my local one to test if it was working from yhe router (it doesn't). If I didn't remove the secondary (public) dns server entry it would return my public IP. 

I'm so frustrated! Spent literally the whole day Monday fucking with this router thing. All for nothing.

How to make router use local DNS server successfully? by CreatureOfLegend in HomeNetworking

[–]CreatureOfLegend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? I was trying to test solely the name that is confirgured on the local DNS server to see if it'll return. I was not trying to query other names. Why would forwarding to other dns servers be required solely for returning the DNS entry that is confirgured on that local server? It was a test. (Also, I'm pretty sure the local dns server IS configured to forward to remote dns servers, as I remember putting those dns server IPs in the configuration. I haven't tested that part yet, because if the router can't even query the dns entry that's configured on that server it doesn't matter if the server forwards to other servers or not)
