How to know when you've crossed over to full, freakin' paranoia?? When you read an article like this & immediately envision legislation to grow "abandoned" frozen embryos via artificial wombs so they can become neglected, traumatized kids--oops, I mean properly-educated RW voters. Voila... the next anti-abortion tool. 🤦‍♀️

I def need a day away from the computer.

How Indonesia’s Toba Volcano Changed Human Evolution

The massive supervolcano eruption 74,000 years ago has been blamed for nearly killing off our species. The emerging truth is much more interesting - by Gemma Tarlach April 29, 2024

"...Stone tools have been found both above and below layers of Toba ash deposited in northern India, the Arabian Peninsula, and elsewhere, showing that humans were present in those areas before and after the catastrophic eruption. They found ways to weather the actual event and any changes in climate that followed. And in March, after decades of research in a remote corner of Ethiopia, a multidisciplinary team determined that humans there survived shifts in climate likely caused by the distant eruption by changing their diet and, quite possibly, innovating a new hunting technique: archery..."

Very interesting story about the #nitroplast, a potential new organelle resulting from #symbiosis between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and the #microalgae Braarudosphaera bigelowii based on subcellular imaging and proteomic data.
Possibly a new model to study the evolutionary transition from #endosymbiont to organelle.

I tried allowing both Bi-generational and monogenerational life forms. But somehow no monogenerational pushed through.

(Monogen. Plants are greenish, animals blueish. For bi-gen. It's cyanish & magentaish.)

#evolution #creativecoding #trisolaris

Vegetation spawning on planet. One type produces pinkish animals to procreate, the other just grows more plants. When they are close, the Bi-generational Lifeforms are at an Advantage, since they can eat the other plants and seed put there.

“On the whole, large differences in exploratory behavior were observed between the cichlid species, and these differences were also confirmed under laboratory conditions [...] This puts the focus back on animal behavior as driving force behind key evolutionary processes"

Happy to share the latest manuscript from our lab, in which we propose that eukaryotes evolved from a genomic chimera of Asgard archaea and giant viruses.

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.04.22.590592v1

This is a controversial topic, but we believe we have strong evidence to suggest a critical viral role in eukaryogenesis.

Another Periodic Trisolar System, with a chaotic planet orbit.

#trisolaris #evolution #creativecoding

The Blue Star moves in a circle, the yellow stars trace a fivefold star within. The planet circles around the yellow star, then changes to orange, then back to yellow. Temperature is mostly cold, sometimes hot. Life finds a way.

Planet in Periodic Trefoil-Trisolaris System.

Here we see the Advantage of Bi-generational Lifeforms: When temperature gets too hot, the forest sheds its leaves and powers down to survive, to then grow a new clan in... Spring?

Bottom: An orange, a yellow and a white star orbiting in 3-rotationally symmetric ellipses (I think) A green planet orbits the white star initially, then the yellow one. Top: Pulsating Temperature Field. Forest growing, Tribes woozling around them, going extinct, start woozling again.

Many people have learned that horses first came to the Americas when Spanish explorers brought them here about 500 years ago.

But fossils show horses have been in North America for centuries, including during the Americas during the last Ice Age 10,000 years ago.

I have a server running on my NAS. I want to access the calendars on it from Calendar. How to achieve this? I haven't found anything neither in Calendar itself nor in "Online Accounts" section in the Settings.

I found an old blog post from 2016 mentioning having to install to do this:

https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/gnome-caldav.html

Is this still the only way to do this?
