It will also damage plastic on some Fitbit screens

If you use permetrin on your gear/clothes never let cats sleep on them - while they are fine with low doses higher ones are much more dangerous to them than to us.

Yeah, aphids and tomato blight are the only two things in my garden that make me use any chemicals.

Every year in late May I have to spray beats and dill once with an insecticide to get rid of aphids or I will have no crop. Every year in late August I have to spray tomatoes against blight or I will have no plants left by mid September.

Alternative: buy a non-woven crop cover. I've bought a stupidly massive one - 12m x 50m (39 x 164 feet) - for 95 Euro (~100 USD) shipped. That's enough to cover almost 1/6 of an acre. Even a really thin one (30g/m^2) makes a big difference for small dips below freezing.

50 F

The same is true and to an ever greater extent for peppers. If temperature drops below 10C / 50F you can expect zero plant growth for up to a week. This effectively limits plant growth season to 10-12 weeks in 6B - it will still flower and fruit after that, but the plant will hardly grow.

1 gal is nowhere near enough - it will be a problem as the plant grows and grow it will since it's indeterminate. I use 40L (10.5 gal) pots for tomato plants.

Retaliation will be purely using military drones against strictly military targets. Like hospitals or kindergartens.

About 10% fps bump and even bigger battery life improvement at the same time borderline justifies the title in my book

Visually at first it's going to be mostly weight loss. How much depends on how much caloric deficit you are running - rule of the thumb if you eat 500 kcal less than what you burn per day you will lose about a pound/0.5kg per week. Diet is 80% of success. Your muscle gains will be low while you are losing weight, but your existing muscles will become more visible.

You see yourself every day so it's going to be hard to spot differences - compare monthly photos.

Idk how it compares to tramontina, but to my surprise Ikea 365 set I bought 20 years ago is still going strong despite daily use - might be an ok budget option

It's worse than that. Situations where something causes no harm to literally anyone are few and far between. Even less often you have a full and clear picture of a situation. Usually it's a choice between who gets hurt to what extent and based on what you know you just try to minimize the damage. You will get it wrong a lot.

Life is complicated and all we can do is to try our best and hope others will too.

Alternatively you could eliminate oil company tax breaks and direct subsidies and that alone would fund it.
