It’s my unbiased opinion that .ee is the best place in the fediverse, and this is largely your doing. Keeping a level head, and applying consistent management is no small task.

So for what it’s worth, thank you.

And shout out to all the other moderators that do what they do, and to those who are stepping up to keep this place what it is.

Not true. VFTs prefer nutrient poor soil. In fact, the main reason owners of these plants fail to keep them alive is not watering them with pure enough water. You’re supposed to use water with a TDS below 100ppm. Rain water or RO water preferred.

The reason these plants can survive in such low nutrient soils is because they evolved a different mechanism for obtaining nutrients.

Potato tubers are not actually roots. They are modified stems. So the surest way to force more potatoes is to “hill” them. In the commercial fields this is done with a huge tractor raking soil from in between planting rows and piling it up on the plants. You essentially bury the plants stem as it grows taller. Then the buds on the stem will push out stolons (horizontal underground stems.) these will terminate in tubers, aka: potatoes!

Source: did potato disease research for my PhD.

Additional edit: loose/sandy soil is critical. Too dense of soil and your tubers can’t expand well.

Quick correction: McD’s fries are vegan everywhere except the US. They use some sort of milk and “natural beef flavoring” in the breading here for some dumb ass reason. In Europe they’re vegan though.

I think the fact that there are ~40% of bills that both rich and middle class Americans oppose is pretty solid proof that congress doesn’t give a shit about what American citizens want them to pass… or am i misinterpreting this?

What does that make me (0.38 user)?!?

Also, I think you mean 1.0, 0.7 and 0.5

Thank you for the sources. Some comments:

  1. I don’t think a narrowing of the income inequality between races is the same as a generalized reduction in income inequality across a whole nation. Yes it probably contributes, but it doesn’t tell the story.
  2. your article on GINI tells the exact opposite story that you’re saying here. The headline says it all: pre-tax income inequality has fallen slightly (1.2% or so) but after people pay taxes, the income inequality actually ROSE!! Easily demonstrating the regressive nature of the tax structure. The article mentions some expiring tax breaks for low income households.

I get the cheese argument, but the dairy-free ice cream these days is wild. Oatly, and a few others have some incredible offerings.

“Wood” = “would”

These posts are allergic to punctuation. So there also should be a “.” or something after the “would”.

You forgot v) collaborates internationally for work, requiring them to be awake early to maximize overlapping hours in their workday.

But even I know not to do noisy shit outside until at least 10. Those few quiet hours in the morning where it seems I’m the only person alive are to drink coffee and cherish.

Ooooh! Finally. I have needed something like this to control the volume on my media PC.

I used to have an automation that detects when my HVAC turns on, and it bumps the volume of whatever I’m playing up a few clicks. Then turns it back down when the HVAC cycle finishes. Super handy due to the crazy loud HVAC in my house.

That does look pretty slick. However, I don’t plan on dropping $800 for my partner to watch Hulu with. Are there used versions I could hunt down?

The “SPAM” musubi. I make a seitan/tofurkey loaf that is flavored like ham. Then I shape the loaf like spam. Slice thin, marinade in teriyaki, and bake/pan fry to get some glazed goodness on it. The it sits on top a block it rice, wrapped with a little ribbon of nori.
