its more like it's not safe any more. car infrastructure has been built up so much around here that nobody lets their kids out. when I was a kid we only came home to eat and sleep and I could bike anywhere without worrying about anything. A family generally only had one car, maybe a second for work use, but now everone in the household has their own.

I don't think that even matters. There are plenty of people that would surely be best simply deleted regardless of their affiliation. The us needs a revolution at this point. canada isn't even that far behind. our former liberal party in the last while changed their name, then just fused with the conservative party. so now we are also down to two parties plus a bunch of effectively useless riffraff.

No its just missing AI. If they add AI in another expansion they can save the game. You can ask any corporate exec and they will agree.

Literally turning america entirely into an unsafe place then threatening others for it. Are they trying to do a government take over of a shiny appealing money maker? It sure seems like they actually want the nazis everywhere else, I bet if they actually do anything they will keep the nazis if they actually exist in the first place.

I see this everywhere I go. I used to work a job that had a lot of black people along with other minority groups. I had three separate filipino people and one Indian person ask how I can talk so naturally with the black guy I talked with frequently there. I think one of them just had the hots for him, but the others asked if I don't find him scary. Like what the actual fuck he's easily one of the nicest guys I have met. We would talk tech daily and discuss things like how to make computers easier to use for our grandparents and prevent them from being scammed. But it kept happening. The job has high turnover so new people would come in and be scared of him for no reason. What the hell were they seeing that I wasn't? I still don't get it and I think about it a lot because he was like model level handsome with a natural smile that I would have thought nobody could ever distrust. I guess my childhood belief that good looking people had it easy was even more wrong than I thought.

I totally get you on the gifts thing though. I don't visually express emotions like other people and have gotten to the point where I just tell people not to get me anything since I'm incapable of expressing gratitude whether it's there or not. I really wish I had a solution here for both of us.

eh don't worry, trump will make it up to russia by handing over the list of remaining u.s. spies

yeah now its brutal for anyone trying to make a living and excellent for anyone who already inherited a living and has more money than they could use in multiple lifetimes. I'd hate to go back to when it was just brutal for anyone trying to make a living.

a decent amount of americans seem to think they are the global best in every category so probably not obvious enough even.

I need a replacement for the white plastic socket that the usb/charge board plugs in to. I used hot air to pull out a drifting stick but that also heated and fell off, and of absolutely fucking course, fell into the floor air vent and went on a grand old slippy slide away.

Does anyone know the actual name for this part? Everything I have tried searching so far is apparently wrong

Is anyone familiar with what the iron workers memorial bridge foot/bike path is like in the winter? My new work commute goes over the bridge and I'm wondering if it is viable in the snow or if I should budget for having a car by then. Also the state of the trans canada trail from where it meets the bridge to willingdon would affect my planning. I have heard snow on the roads is poorly managed in Burnaby and I don't like biking on them to bevin with so I'm a bit worried. The north van side I have already seen and its a mixed bag of both excellent and awful. Maybe its a city and district difference but I've seen atv plows clearing bike lanes and other parts where the bike lane has snow above my head height. I have a second bike configured for snow and with mid drive electric motor now.

Saw these while looking at apartments but have no idea what they are. they were found mostly on carpet, but some were in other parts of the unit.

edit: after looking up the suggestion of carpet beetle I am fairly convinced that it is indeed what they are. I also saw a few adult beetles that look like one of the species found in photos online. thanks everyone.

So I used something like these some years ago to recover data off a phone, but I was wondering if the reverse is possible in having a bga soldered adapter with a microsd slot on top. Or if PCBs can even be soldered together like that. I've never actually checked if bga chips have raised pads or something. The purpose would be for rapidly testing custom firmware for shitty old devices that were designed to be replaced without removing the emmc to flash it separately.

Companion plants (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 7 months ago by Grass@sh.itjust.works to c/trees@lemmy.world

Its been a decade or two since I've had any sort of plants growing but when I was last trying to grow I was looking into companion plants. There are some that are pretty much ancient standards like beans corn and squash, but does anyone know plants that have a similar beneficial relationship with cannabis?

I'm currently using the blocklists included with unbound in opnsense on a mini PC and I have used pihole on a pi which now operates my 3d printers instead. I haven't tried any of the other network wide options. Has anyone made any blog posts or similar detailing performance testing of different options?

I have an 8 person household with each person having at least a phone and computer and probably some consoles or something. I haven't noticed any obvious differences but whitelisting seemingly can't be done in bulk efficiently with my current setup.

We are all going to be moving in the coming months so I am revisiting different aspects of the home network and trying to figure out what can be improved and if anything is irritating enough in it's current state to tolerate a potential performance loss.

I'm trying to find out what purpose this type of design serves and how they are designed but have hit a wall with knowing what to even look for.

This piece of the voron stealthburner is the only example I can think of off the top of my head but I have seen them before in some sort of fan duct or funnel thing.

So I've run mods on a bunch of different games which were downloaded and installed with the deck alone. No man's sky, lethal company, Subnautica, etc. with generally no problems but some modding software run through wine had visual bugs but the games worked as intended.

So I thought I'd try something bigger and install fallout ttw. I installed the base games from gog without issue, and MO2 ran fine with my overridden default of wine-ge. Even the ttw installer seems to work... slowly. I started it two days ago and the picture is now. I guess some mods you really are better off using a beefier computer and transferring the final product.

I want to link my brother's network to my own in the lowest maintenance and power consumption way possible. I want to be able to remote admin the computer and for his devices to access my network storage and potentially other stuff eventually.

My home network: Cable modem from ISP in bridge mode AliExpress Intel n100, 4x i226v, running opnsense bare metal Generic switch Wifi AP Multiple old computers and sbc's for self host stuff and 3d printers. Tons of wifi devices due to 10 person household.

Brother's network: ISP modem with built in wifi in default mode. Everything is wifi except tv and the previously mentioned computer. 2 person household.

I had previously tried using wireguard on an openwrt router on both ends, one a nanopi r5s and the other an orangepi r1 plus lts. I think I ran into issues with being unable to install packages due to being out of date or something. I tried compiling openwrt myself but it would fail and diagnosing that was beyond me. At the time the r5s was my home router.

I'm looking for recommendations for how I could connect at least his wired devices as if they were part of my network. Unfortunately it seems I'm still at the point where I don't even know what I don't know when it comes to networking.
