You must be confused, or perhaps you're not talking about the same species that I am thinking about. Huckleberries, genus Gaylussacia, are definitely in the same family as blueberries, Vaccinium. They're both Ericaceae, in the subfamily Vaccinioideae. Gaylussacia is definitely not in Solanaceae.

Two species of blueberry as well as cranberry grow natively in a few bog habitats near my home, and huckleberries are also sympatric with these species.

ETA: I saw some context from other comments in this chain that somebody else already beat me to this. I, too, didn't realize that there were, if you were, "false" huckleberries in the nightshade family.

To add to both of our shared confusion, there is even a false huckleberry from within the blueberry family, but instead the Ericoideae subfamily: https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/553849-Rhododendron-menziesii. I have no experience with this plant, or even really this subfamily, as it isn't exactly endemic to my neck of the woods.

FLAC isn't too bad on disc space.

There isn't any. Just the typical 14 year olds railing on about the same ten commie phrases as if it was ever funny. Looking forward to more diverse meme communities coming to Lemmy so I can block the communist stupid.

I imagine that a floss pick is better than nothing, but string floss is the best way to go about it. Proper flossing technique requires you to be able to have a small amount of slack so that the floss can wrap around the contour of your tooth and slide past the "triangle" between your teeth. The floss picks are too taut to be able to do that adequately.

I'll also say that I completely agree with OP: picking up a good flossing regiment helped my mouth health immensely. It also helped improve my gum health and made my teeth feel "tighter" in my mouth, not like they were always a little bit loose.

Same, my 90s HP is a damn tank and it accepts knockoff toner carts.

I'm wearin' myself a T-shirt That says "The world is my ashtray" Our hearts pump dust And our hair's all gray And I just got a message that says "Yeah, hell has frozen over" I got a phone call from the Lord sayin' "Hey, boy, get a sweater, right now!"

Looks like it's a species of meadowhawk, this one is called either a red-veined darter or a nomad (Sympetrum fonscolombii). Great pic! Dragonflies are a lot of fun and a great challenge to photograph.

I've been rocking OLauncher for a few months now, I love it. Cutting down the extra noise on my home screen felt good.

Gorgeous photo! Looks like an eastern carpenter bee on perhaps a sow thistle?

Time to get a good solid botanical society going on this platform.
