Formic acid is named after the scientific name for ants, and is also known as "ant acid" because they make it.
That's probably the sour part of the taste you described, since acids tend to be. (Think citric or vinegar)

Would you be up for explaining it please?

That's exactly what the article I linked was about.

In the US it means exactly "Not conservative (or centrist)". Same as left-wing, progressive, etc. There just isn't really any distinction or nuance, and I only learned after joining Lemmy that outside the US, liberal has a completely different meaning, and basically means capitalist as far as I can tell.

Oh sure, I am sure they weren't saying humanity would last that long (although technology may help), just 'any plants'.

I recently saw an estimate of around 2 billion more years.

I think civilization in its current form may end, and with it billions of people, but as a species we are pretty adaptable, I think there will be lots of survivors and they will be able to thrive eventually.

But I think it's even more likely that there won't be any one big collapse, and things will either oscillate or reach a steady equilibrium for millennia to come.

Actual gambling (in actual Las Vegas): around $10.

Stock market: Considerably more. (But not recently) We were doing quite well there until we weren't.

I got dictionary also, I think that's the highest category

 

Here's a mild introduction to their style. (Also just one of my favorites)

 

The links inside the linked post are relative links, such as xkcd which is a link to /c/xkcd@lemmy.world

Boost does not open them when tapped, flashing an error instead.

There are unfortunately some subreddits which are still the best place to find timely info about certain topics - for example video game subs run by the developers of the game. Lemmit is a way to subscribe to those while not giving Reddit any more "engagement" or ad views.

The bot that runs Lemmit only posts on its own instance, so users like me only see it when we subscribe explicitly (or the All view I guess, but that's a mixed bag already. Edit: and each user could choose to ban it if they want)
