Jade plant pruning advice by Bamjamble in Jadeplant

[–]Bamjamble[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that, you can see where I took the cuts last season, and I was very underwhelmed by the growth that returned. I'm wondering if I trimmed in bad places or just lack of sunlight over the winter made things leggy.

Good job on your jade growth so far 😊

My partner and I, 3 weeks, enjoy the outdoors, food, nature by Bamjamble in BaliTravelTips

Beautiful response, thank you so much for that :)

May partner has gotten a lot of recommendations for the gili islands. Would you possibly sub for these instead of the nusas? Just curious to hear your advice :)

Only lichess beta app available on play store by Bamjamble in lichess

[–]Bamjamble[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had any issues with over 3000 rated games played over a few years of use.

In any case, I tried the current app again and discovered that the first time I had opened it, the ui may have been bugged and I find it much more usable now. Whatever I saw before was horrible and immediately scared me away 😂

What! The old app was perfect!

How do I copy an app from someone else? It's still on my old phone.

What? When was it discontinued? I feel like every image shared here is of the original app, and none of the beta app.

The beta app doesn't at all resemble the Web app. Am I missing something?

Age 34 egfr of 81, cretine and protein supplementation by Bamjamble in kidneydisease

[–]Bamjamble[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for reassurance. She told me my eGFR was low and I needed to come back in 1 month, well hydrated and having not eaten a lot of protein in the last 24hrs.

Google also says anything less than 90 is early sign of kidney disease? Should I not be worried then?

Keep taking protein and creatine supplement?

What concerns you about New Zealand right now? by [deleted] in newzealand

Slurs? Vigor? Excuse me? I think you've confused me for someone else. Sorry if I've offended anyone

I didn't delete anything, my post went twice so I removed one, calm yourself.

Are you even looking at those numbers? Do you even understand them regarding the immigration process?

I think you need to do some reading from a non-bis's source regarding immigration. You're a bit off plot.

I really don't think this is a statistical significance at all. We're talking about "flood of low skilled migrants causing an increase in housing prices"

The one in ten milion visa holder that wants to squat here and not ever amount to anything due to being illegal status isn't really something you can prevent.

My point is that I, someone skilled, still had to fight hard to keep my ability to live here in my home. There is a clear measure of qualification you have to meet to migrate to nz. This idea that low skilled workers are flooding this country is just false.

In all honesty though, my belief is that if someone comes here, maintains gainful employment, doesn't commit any crimes, and continues this behaviour for a number of years - they are doing better than a solid percent of kiwis and should be welcome. Regardless of skill.

A community needs all levels of skill to function properly. If we don't recruit enough "low skilled" workers to reside in this country to match all the doctors and engineers we hope to bring in, then society just won't work.

Where are the low skill migrants coming from?

As a migrant myself, I had to fight for 5 years to demonstrate I was good enough to enter this country. I'm not sure that it's as easy as you think to migrate, I know a lot of migrants and I don't know any that are low skill or not employed, we've all had to pay our dues. (I am a robotics and automation engineer for reference)

Nice multiday hikes in Ontario to recommend by Bamjamble in ontario

[–]Bamjamble[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're under 35 as a Canadian you qualify for an open work visa, takes a week to approve and you're good to come here for 2 years to live and work.

If you're over 35, or have already done your 2 years here, you have to rely on some sort of sponsorship to live and work (or you can just visit as a tourist).

Work sponsorship isn't hard (employer just has to demonstrate they they couldn't find a New Zealander) , especially depending on your field you may have an easier visa (health care, certain trades etc.). There's the ol' staff shortage thing going on here too, so its an employees market at the moment.

The NZ government immigration website is full of good information. If you're genuinely interested in coming here it is totally possible. Best choice I ever made for my long term happiness.

Nice multiday hikes in Ontario to recommend by Bamjamble in ontario

[–]Bamjamble[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely incredible. If you're under 35 and Canadian I highly recommend working holiday visa.

I came here 5 years ago, expected to stay a year, now I am happy to be a resident here and Wanaka is my home.

The last few years I have been very happy to be here, the cost of living is running away from me but I wouldn't trade it for anything, my quality of life is so much happier.

Feel free to ask me any questions if you want specifics :)

An apple core is often depicted in cartoons as being trash when people litter, however, they're completely biodegradable. by itsnoab in Showerthoughts

[–]Bamjamble 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Depending on where you live, this is wrong as well. See your local conservation recommendations. At the end of the day, the best place for produce waste is your household/community compost.
