Jacking off is great, so is beef stroganoff.

Aw damn, that's not an option with fairphones

I have nothing constructive to contribute other than I feel smug and superior because I have a fairphone, so I can change mine if that ever happens.

Nothing wrong with this post

[–] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm so grateful for you sharing this.

I remember asking about it in a previous post you made and still feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all. I'm going to spend some time when I'm free to properly read and understand this and then post up some results. I've got some very sad calatheas that I can hopefully bring to life.

Depending where you are, you might have a legal responsibility to control them. Even if you don't, I would seriously consider getting some traps because they could become a serious issue if left to multiply. The fact one got in the house should be an alarm bell.

My neighbour throws bird seed around and when I work from home I always see rats in their garden. I've told them and it carries on. I think it is extremely unfair to me the other neighbours to knowingly have rats and essentially encourage them by continuing to feed them.

Traps and any potential improvements to the compost rig should be high on the list based on what you have described.

Edit, I've merged yours and OPs writing in my tired mind, but the general point is the same.

What is semi hydro? I've got mine in soil, but I'm interested in other ideas.

I've got a few of these and never attempted a trellis or moss pole, just letting them trail seems fine. I think they are ground crawling plants rather than climbers. I'm sure you could use a pole, but a basic trellis with really large gaps would probably work better if you want height from the plant. That would probably give you more options for the material challenges you have mentioned too.

Imagine someone rolling up with this 17th century BCE

 

I have a load of filters set up on my feed, notably I don't want to see Trump or Elon.

Due to recent events, so much content is coming through that it is as if I don't have filters at all.

If the text or title doesn't include the key words, it can't be filtered. All the screenshots or posts with jokes or bad titles can't be filtered.

I think the only way proper filters could be achieved is with a separate 'tags' field that could be added to or voted on by community members.

This might all seem like a lot of effort, but feed filters are such a good feature that I think it would be worth it.

I don't want unreasonable perfection for the filters, but the system seems too flawed at the moment.

I have no idea where this kind of discussion or decision would be made so I'm just throwing it out as a question here.

 

There are lots of issues I have with them in terms of privacy, but I'm going to be very specific in asking about a certain situation and would prefer to stay on that topic if possible.

I have seen someone showing AI glasses which allow the wearer to cheat at chess. The glasses provide the wearer with computer engine moves, essentially making them unbeatable against even the strongest grand masters.

How can someone prevent this from happening, for example in a tournament match?

I don't consider this as being an issue at the highest level of professional play, but for club and casual players they might not have the resources to deal with this.

Currently the camera and/or screen information might be fairly obvious just by looking, but assuming technology improves this could become harder to detect.

Retrospectively, it would be easy to spot a cheater and correct results, however this still spoils things by having the cheating in the first place.

It isn't realistic to ask people to play without glasses, and I'm not aware of any way to stop cameras or ai from functioning.

So what can be done, if anything?

I just noticed this, what should I do? Sorry for the vague question but I can't find any good articles on what this is.

Everything I find starts the same way "top 8 reasons for brown leaves". Then says too much water, not enough water, too much light not enough light too much fertilizer not enough, wrong kind of fertilizer and so on and so on. That isn't helpful! Do I just have to guess? Why is all plant knowledge basically voodoo?

I'm tempted to take a cutting so I have a spare to try again if it all goes wrong, but the plant only has 5 leaves, so I'm stressing out.

 

First I want to say hello, I have only 3 lovely chickens to start off with as I learn the ropes.

Secondly, my neighbours son is absolutely obsessed with the chickens. It's really nice, but he is also feeding them huge amounts of wild bird seed and I'm a little worried. There are mounds of the stuff being poured over the fence!

I have spoken to his parents nicely and asked them to stop him doing so, which they understand.

In case this doesn't get resolved quickly, is there any danger that this can cause harm to my chickens?

Any idea what this is? Many leaves are dying on the plant, wondering if there is a way to save it. I have forgotten the name of the plant, but will update when I find it.

Edit Ctenanthe Lubbersiana - thanks @squeezeyerbawdy

 

I have a dreamcatcher which I thought had a dying leaf or something, but it looks like this could be something like seeds!? There is a second pod which isn't open to the left in the picture.

I don't really know what it is but I'm excited about it. My other aglaonema hasn't grown at all in 2 years!

Anyone tuning in at all on the off weekend for F1? It's nice to see some familiar faces in the teams.

 

I bought a set of three carbon steel pans, and they are amazing. Is this allowed here? They are 99% iron I think.

They are lighter than a full iron pan but you still season them in the same way.

I have had an iron pan dedicated to meat cooking for a few years now, but I'm not sure it will get much use now.

These are new pans, so I'll have to see how they last, but I'm very optimistic.

 

I get that until recently it was considered normal and relatively cheap, but you are literally paying someone else to make food for you.

It can't be sustainable without exploitation of workers and/or animal welfare to have that available to the majority of people on a regular basis.

If you can only afford fast food as a luxury, to me that seems like a good thing.

 

As a non USA resident, I didn't know who this was. Before I read the post that was the name I had in my head.

 

Sorry for the poor quality / lack of screenshot, this is from my work computer which I isolate from my personal devices, so I just took a picture.

 

I heard on the Sunday broadcast for the San Marino GP that it isn't confirmed yet if the India GP will go ahead.

The riders still need to test the circuit and give a verdict.

I think that's insane. Just wondering if anyone else knows any more about this?
