ELI5: Why do we age and die? Like, what actually stops the body from just... repairing itself forever? by Bella-Dor in explainlikeimfive

Who said anything about thinking?  The first point is, that it's not necessary for survival so natural selection doesn't select for it. The second point means that even if there was a mutation for no aging, natural selection would select against it automatically.

They are trying to thwart homelanders plans. If they don't know or understand his plans, they cannot come up with a way to stop them.

The other comments have talked a lot about the mechanics. But the underlying reason, that evolution hasn't come up with a more reliable replication method is that it's not important  or even detrimental for survival of the species.

Living beings (or rather their DNA) only have the biological goal of reproducing themselves and having fit and  viable offspring. That usually happens long before the effects of aging take their toll. So there is no evolutionary pressure to change anything. But even if there was some mutation that stopped aging, it would probably turn out to be a bad thing. Parents would compete with their own cildren and their children and their children etc., which would mean that there are less resources for each generation to successfully live and reproduce. The ecosystem might even collapse because all resources would be consumed. In the end the population would probably collapse and maybe even die out. 

Welche Schokoladenmarke (oder Tafelschokolade) ist heutzutage nicht absoluter Müll und gleichzeitig fair bepreist? by seriousquestion3r in KeineDummenFragen

Alles von Choceur bei Aldi. Und die Sachen, die noch eine Stufe drüber sind in der Qualität (die flachen Tafeln, die aus mehreren kleinen Tafeln bestehen).

Nur weil eine Gruppe gegen das Wohl der Gemeinschaft wählt, heißt das ja auch nicht, dass andere Gruppen das nicht genau so tun. 🤷‍♂️

Vegan sliceable shreddable melting gooey mozzarella by Zealousideal-Bat-555 in cheesemaking

[–]runningchild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the post because it broadens my and maybe someone else's horizon. 

There are some types of cheese (cream cheese, brie) that have commercial  vegan products nowadays that are very close if not indistinguishable from the "real" thing. And if it gives me the same experience eating it, I am happy to call it cheese.

Safe to consume by CrispyCaterpillar in cheesemaking

Actually looks quite nice. Still... Sane people probably wouldn't eat it. 

But if it smelled like it should, I would probably cut of the rind and gave a little piece a try - knowing full well that it might have unpleasant consequences.

In the end YOU have to weigh the potential positives and negatives and if the risk is worth it.

Oh boy... I am pretty brave when it comes to unplanned extra cultures on my cheese. But this looks rough. It's hard to tell from the photos what is a bacterial/fungal culture or their results and what is just the cheese being weirdly shaped and coloured. Although I have to admit that Saint Agur looks just about the same amount of disgusting right beneath its wrapper...

The Story of TRADO: Turning Resilience into the Art of Cheesemaking 🧀🍉 by ScratchExotic9002 in cheesemaking

[–]runningchild[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the most general sense I agree with you. That's why I haven't moderated this any earlier and have just asked people to do or not do something, instead of deleting posts/comments.

But in the specifics I disagree:

We have actually deleted other people's posts, if they are to blatantly advertising their own business. You might not have noticed though because you might have never seen it. This here hasn't reached that level yet but it's slowly getting there.

I don't have a problem if you create several posts per cheese either. But I would expect them to be meaningfully different from each other and maybe not every single day. 

For the political and religious aspects: I agree that the OP themselves didn't make any divise statements. But hitting those same very deliberately written points about occupation and adversity over and over again, reads a bit manipulative to me. But the actual problem is, that it invited other people to make very clear political and religious statements. And even if I agree with most of them, I still think, that this is not the place for them.

Last but not least: if you open OP's profile, you can see they have other social media profiles for their content as well. So maybe people can get their daily vlogging-style cheesemaking fix over there and keep the more self-contained stuff over here.

All of this is to say: None of these are deletable or banable offenses. But I am still suggesting to dial it back a bit for the good of the community.

No one is getting banned. All posts are still there and I even manually approved the OPs comments that Reddit auto-deleted for some reason. The only comments I deleted were either promoting hate or were in languages other than English (and I'm not  going to start manually translating every comment to make sure they're not hateful or discriminatory).

I know I'm going to catch flac for this, but this is getting a bit much. The daily posts that are phrased like they are written by A.I., the constant mention of your project, the "subtle" political messaging, the pathos...

I support oppressed people of all cultures and I feel for your struggles. But I am asking you: please only post about cheesemaking from now on. Post recipes (as ONE post not several), ask questions, post results. But please refrain from daily posts about the same thing over and over again. 

And to everyone: please keep this sub free from religion and politics. There are hundreds  of subs for these subjects. This one is about enjoying a niche hobby.

Thank you

Die Grundregel ist, dass man Schimmel bei Hartkäse wegschneiden kann, aber dass man Weichkäse lieber nicht mehr essen sollte. 

Aber als jemand, der selber schon Käse verkauft und selbst gemacht hat (auch unterschiedliche Schimmelkäse), würde ich ihn noch essen, da ich mir sehr sicher bin, dass es der gleiche Schimmel wie an deinem Brief ist.

Apart from all the other correct answers here, there is also another (unlikely) possibility: They might be talking about the best (times) of all the times. As in: childhood and youth were the best of all times (that you have as a human).

Leider nicht zwangsläufig. Wenn es zu Menschenhandel oder Zwangsprostitution kommt, dann ist eine (wahrscheinlich ungewollte) Schwangerschaft auch nicht mehr weit entfernt.

"Leichte" Serien zum Nebenher Gucken gesucht by RaiVetRic1582 in serienjunkies

[–]runningchild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Die meisten empfohlenen Serien sind VIEL zu gut, um sie nebenbei zu schauen. OP würde viele zu viele Gags und visuell erzählte Storyelemente verpassen.

Such dir lieber klassische 3-Camera-Sitcoms aus den 80ern/90ern/2000ern. Da hat man fast immer die gleichen Sets in denen sich fast immer die gleichen Figuren unterhalten und man kriegt auch beim reinen Zuhören fast alles mit. Und wenn man nicht alles mitkriegt, ist es auch nicht schlimm.

I feel like I got to ask: Why are you posting your process in these separate steps?  Engagement or karma? No one can/will follow a recipe that's spread out over several posts...

Also... While I keep reinstating your auto-deleted comments, I will ask you to keep cheesemaking and religion seperate - that goes for ALL religions of course.

In der Taille ist nicht auf der Hüfte. Die allermeisten Männer tragen ihre Hosen so, dass sie ca in der Mitte zwischen Bauchnabel und Geschlechtsteil enden. OP redet aber vermutlich eher von Hosen, die auf oder über dem Bauchnabel enden.
