My parents are around 44 deg lat and their tomatoes do very well. It seems like something else must be limiting your success.

I usually look up the number for something like an ftc or fbi tipline if a website absolutely forces putting in personal info.

Zz and snake plants are also very forgiving and would do well in the light conditions you describe. Snake plants grow as straight upright blades. Zz plants grow in more of fanning structure.

A mix of pathos and zz plants could be pretty nice having both semi upright and trailing foliage but could look a little on the messy side.

So why didn’t the poster copy and paste into archive before posting?

That’s a little hyperbolic. There’s a lot of mechanics at play in generating microplastics. Fabrics have microscopically thin strands of plastics. It should be no surprise that rubbing up against thousands of tiny strands every time we move and wash synthetic fabric clothes releases many tiny particles. Plus clothes have to deal with UV degradation making the plastic more brittle.

The plastic components in an RO system should be specced to not leach plasticizers. They should have smooth walls and laminar flow. There shouldn’t be much to abrade the plastic surfaces and shed particles. They may not be perfect, but water from an RO system will have orders of magnitude fewer microplastics. So an RO system still “does something about it.”

We do need to address the problem, but I wouldn’t want people to avoid beneficial remediation just because it has some plastic components.

This is fantastic news. I doubt ITER scale fusion plants would have a chance of commercial success. The high field strength of REBCO should enable much more compact and affordable fusion reactors. This is a major linchpin in ending “fusion is the energy source of the future and always will be” jokes.

How does one manage to wreck cast iron?

Did they take that toothbrush to a belt sander?

I chose mander.xyz and feddit.nl partially because neither require an email address. I haven’t really kept track of who all they have and have not defederated from. I think both don’t defederate much. I use the block feature in Connect liberally to remove the communities I don’t care to see, like the tankies.

I set up multiple profiles on different instances as there were quite a few downtime events when I started. Now things are a little more stable and I only use two. I wonder how much of that decline is from redundant profiles going dark without actually losing the user.

Does anyone know what that grabber device is? I like to use grabbers to pick up chestnuts, but the ones I have are pretty flimsy. This thing looks like a beast in comparison.

Title says Quercus, but emojis say Castanea.
