is the condom to prevent getting sunburned?

They keep using “gender” in this paper, don’t acknowledge any of it’s downfalls (n = 60; self-reported; no protocol for hand swab; biological sex is not binary; etc);

" Each subject was instructed to not wash their hands for a minimum of one hour prior to sampling."

So they are able to determine if someone is using self care products marketed to females vs males? Or are they claiming each gender has a distinct VOC composition due to biological sex differences? this is some really poor reporting on some really shoddy “research”

your feed should clear up.

This works for like a few days, then inevitably the cycle begins again…

Thank you for an actually reasonable explanation

Xmpp was a messaging protocol though, is that really comparable to decentralized forums?

Thanks

Is there anything preventing instances from defederating from threads?

“There are rumours that Meta would become “Fediverse compatible”. You could follow people on Instagram from your Mastodon account”

Are there examples of this? Or is this just the fear? This all seems like a knee jerk reaction to something we are already avoiding by being on Lemmy/mastodon. The point of having decentralized instances isn’t popularity. It’s to avoid the corporate bullshit, which is inherently less popular.

Observational studies do not prove causation

Animal studies cannot be reliably extrapolated to humans

If you want to ignore the vast majority of safety research about artificial sweeteners, then sure… From this very article you posted:

"“IARC is not a food safety body”

The IARC’s decisions have also faced criticism for sparking needless alarm over hard-to-avoid substances or situations. It has previously put working overnight and consuming red meat into its “probably cancer-causing” class, and classifying the use of mobile phones as “possibly cancer-causing”, similar to aspartame.

“IARC is not a food safety body. The World Health Organization’s Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) is currently conducting a comprehensive food safety review of aspartame and no conclusions can be drawn until both reports are published,” Secretary General of the International Sweeteners Association, Frances Hunt-Wood, said in their press release.

According to the ISA, aspartame is one of the most thoroughly researched ingredients in history, with over 90 food safety agencies across the globe declaring it is safe, including the EFSA.

The International Council of Beverages Association (ICBA) shares a similar position, arguing that aspartame has proven to be a safe tool to reduce calories and sugars in diets.

“The best available evidence from large population studies shows that low and no-calorie sweeteners as a replacement strategy for added sugars is associated with reductions in important public health outcomes such as obesity, cardiovascular disease and death,” John Sievenpiper, Professor in the Department of Medicine at the University of Toronto, told on behalf of the ICBA in their press release.

Aspartame has been extensively studied for years. Last year, an observational study in France among 100,000 adults showed that people who consumed larger amounts of artificial sweeteners – including aspartame – had a slightly higher cancer risk.

It followed a study from the Ramazzini Institute in Italy in the early 2000s, which reported that some cancers in mice and rats were linked to aspartame.

However, the first study could not prove that aspartame caused the increased cancer risk, and questions have been raised about the methodology of the second study, including by EFSA, which assessed it."

Observational studies do not equate to causation

Jerboa. Haven’t had any issues

Edit for more info: I’m running Jerboa on my Samsung 21+; created account in browser, then added account in Jerboa app.

Edit2: Switched to just using Lemmy.world through browser on phone. Jerboa had too many issues when they added 2FA
