I love how they don't rule out people who can't figure out a printed url. I certainly couldnt partner with someone who needs instructions on how to use a link.

Why wouldnt you just use a qr code?

    This war is being incredibly mismanaged on every level in the US. There's no strategy, there's no objective, there's no plan.

    Food quality is dropping because they didn't plan, this isn't about front line troops where there's supply line issues due to enemy actions.

    This is all self inflicted. It should be a scandal of incompetence.

    I probably dont have the gene, but I dont feel cool for not clicking an ad. What I mostly feel is rage that the promotions are so obviously geared towards getting the potentially addicted to try it by offering $100's of free (bonus) bets.

    And at the end they have the audacity to mention a helpline.

    The shape of the final fruit leaves me unconvinced that its not a black raspberry.

    Without leaves or an angle peering into the top from where the stem was removed, its basically impossible to confirm my suspicioms. But something in my gut says um, actually.

    I have it and enjoy it. Its got the same edgy humor of Binding of Issac and Super Meat Boy which is starting to wear thin.

    But the gameplay is magnificent. If the battlefields had height to them it'd be the perfect FF: Tactics rougelike.

    If you read the article, a large portion of it is dedicated to people defacing and degrading the nature.

    Hell the title card image is a tree with a bunch of initials carved into it.

    Overall the headline blows, because the article had a large chunk dedicated to Native American Cultural Appropriation and other related criticisms.

    Edit: My bad, I didn't see OP's message. Your comment is a pretty good take on OPs commentary. I'm not quite sure how OP tied that message to this article, this article is not really solarpunk focused.

    I just read the article. I recommend doing that, it is quiet good.

    I arrived during the API debacle.

    Some things are better, content and activity.

    Some things are worse, spammers, AI proponents who harrass you despite the clear community-wide dislike of the plagarism machine, fascist chuds trying to mainstream rascism, misogyny, and ableism.

    Basically each new wave is another usenet September equivalent, and it feels like we're approaching the eternal september epoch as lemmy becomes more widely used. Soon we'll have to deal with state actor bot-nets if we aren't already.

    I tried planting edible landscaping this year, but it's been working pretty poorly. I think I need figure out a better way to communicate the expectations with pedestrians.

    So far 2 Cantaloupes have been taken well before ripening, an unripe green pumpkin was taken, an unripe bell pepper was taken, and they aren't touching the ripe tomatos or strawberries. So I'm very confused.

    Maybe I'm expecting them to have too high of a base knowledge of garden plants? I may just move the garden inside the fence and build a small pantry instead.

     

    For the 250th anniversery of America (honestly, vomit) the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Natural Areas and Preserves is reconstructing the maps and transcribing surveyor notes from the 1800s to create an interactive map of Ohio's presettlememt habitats.

    I'll be sure to post an update once the map is out.

     

    My pawpaws saplings I planted last fall are still alive!

    They have started budding leaves. I know I'm a few years away from fruit production but I am curious if anyone has found good ways to attract pollinators outside of rotting meat. Not sure the city would be very excited about that prospect.

    I am considering making a native carion flower plant garden near the trees to make area more attractive to pollinators prior to the pawpaws flowering. Was wondering it anyone else had tried that idea. I've found 3 somewhat promising options in my area of Ohio.

    These seem to be an especially symbiotic options https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillium_sessile https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillium_erectum

    And this could be grown if you have a bog garden https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symplocarpus_foetidus

    Falling Object? (lemmy.world)
     

    I have no photos or videos, but I was on Topsail Island on vacation on June 4th around 11pm, where I saw a decently bright moving object erupt with a huge v-shaped tail for atleast 30 seconds. The tail was a faint green color. It fell from the eastern sky into the northeastern sky.

    Google has been particularly unhelpful. Was wondering if you fine folks had any idea. I'm assuming space debris. But I cant find any other reports of anyone seeing it.
