I come from a family of carpenters, building all kinds of stairs for most of my life, and I've never heard of this. This is why I love construction; learn something new all the time. Thanks!
Amen! An upvote wasn't enough. I have not seen this important point discussed anywhere. Not on podcasts, YouTube et al, protest organizations, blogs, social media, editorials, etc etc. Seems obvious to me, but notably absent from social discourse. Thank you for putting it out there!
I feel that. Personally, I've decided most times it is best not to read comments responding to anything I post. And if I have questions, I'll just research it myself rather than ask in the comments here. I see all social media as inherently toxic, and while Lemmy is less toxic than most, people still seem to enjoy shitting on others online whenever they can. And you never know if the jerk really is some high school douche or a Russian bot with an agenda or an intelligent adult with poor communication skills or a violently prideful idiot.
It helps to avoid all sensitive and important posts. There are no jerks in superbowl for example.
Agreed. Where do you draw the line between downvoting and potentially feeding the trolls? I'm having a hard time with that. When someone is acting like an ignorant contrarian, I'm inclined to ignore them.
This is the correct database to use. In the US, we haven't invested any official effort into updating our drinking water standards in many decades. So take whatever your municipality or water supplier says about your water quality, with a grain of salt. Maybe a very large bag of salt.
I was finally able to grow three of these from seed this past spring. I'm very excited. The two survivors are waiting out the heat wave on a windowsill. Any tips for a first timer who doesn't want to kill them? I plan to transplant outdoors a soon as daytime highs drop below 90F.
Agreed! I feel like so many disgusting trolls all over the news these days would disappear if we would just stop talking about them. Don't feed the trolls!
I've heard Firefox with Ublock Origin and Sponsorblock works well on Android. I've personally had frequent issues with Grayjay. But I haven't tried the above solution yet.
Same here. A buddy of mine was listening to YT Music on a speaker when an infomercial length ad started talking (uh, I mean, lying) about all the how and why the United States has the best healthcare system in the world and there's no good reason to change any of it.
I keep a variety of chile pepper plants indoors over winter and deal with this constantly. Here's what I've learned about aphids. They will kill your plant if you aren't vigilant about them. A neem oil spray can help but won't solve the problem entirely. Some formulations of neem oil are harder on the plants than others so test your solution every time you get a new bottle. If you have a handheld shower wand, it is worthwhile to put your plants in the shower about once a month and blast off the little buggers. And regularly fertilizing your plants will keep them strong enough to resist the attack. The best method I have seen, is to use water from a fish tank to water the plants. Good luck!

I concur. Bought one about 6 years ago and it is still like new. It was a little pricey IMO but the only option they had at the time. I like it a lot
MotoGP. I've never met or interacted with anyone else who enjoys it. I freaking love it
You had me really concerned until that last sentence. That is so freaking sad.

They make a Plastic Bonder product that I've had good luck using

Wow! You are incredibly talented in a way I will never comprehend. Nice work!

I'm not sure why you're getting down votes for this. Isn't having some redundancy or backup plan a good idea? What am I missing here?
I remember having those comics back in the 90s. I believe they were destroyed in a flood. Makes me sad. They were so cool!

My head almost exploded. What. The. Fuck.

Awesome find! Thanks for sharing! This is going to save me so much time
And the popups. Don't forget a whole slew of aggravating popups. Ublock makes the web usable again
