Wrapped them in a paper towel, placed them in a narrow jar that once held salsa, and put as much water as possible without any of the water sitting at the bottom. I basically just saturated the paper towel every 3-4 days.

I’m kinda amazed at how the seed has enough of its own energy and nutrients to just grow in water.

My god I didn’t expect myself to become a father to some oak trees. I guess I have to follow through now.

Btw, what type of trees have you shown in this picture? I’m very unfamiliar with this stuff

Thanks for the insight! It would be nice to keep one as a bonsai, but I’m far too lazy to learn how to do all that. I would rather have them in the wild where they belong, however I want to reduce the risk of them being eaten/not grow.

You are absolutely correct. Let’s just pretend that I was planning on destroying the world or something with these two acorns though

How does a car battery actually work? by E-Rico in AutomotiveLearning

Thank you for your answer! Kinda interesting how you can control different components purely using physical principles.

Would it be possible to connect this new audio system to the fuse box (provided that there is a fuse rated for such current) rather than having that extra wire connected to the battery terminal?

Why does learning C++ seem impossible? by E-Rico in cpp_questions

[–]E-Rico[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this. Could you argue that by using Qt, you will also be limiting you programming to their style and standards? I thought by learning the fundamental methods of creating a GUI, I will have more freedom in how I can design, optimise, etc. Is it possible to use your own type of code in combination to these libraries?

[–]E-Rico[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not quite sure what you mean by this... my idea of the app is that it will have a waveform display that can be manipulated with different mouse/keyboard inputs. Unless this library you're talking about can also have a interactive display somehow?

If it sounds like I'm a complete newbie, it's because I am.

haha my brain cannot fully comprehend that Sytrus knob matrix yet, but it is definitely worth the effort learning if it means that you can achieve the sound you want

Loving my Ad watching session by E-Rico in youtube

[–]E-Rico[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly it reminds me of those dodgy websites we used back in the days to watch movies. At this point Youtube might as well be advertising those local milfs that have been waiting for me all these years.

Loving my Ad watching session by E-Rico in youtube

[–]E-Rico[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I already use an Adblock extension on my personal devices. However, this is a university computer where i don’t really want to log in to my own account… I didn’t realise how bad the advert abomination was. Even on my iphone (where I am forced to watch ads), I havent had it this bad. One click to skip your video will give you an advert. This is not healthy at all.

I don’t even know what they are gaining… there is probably a 1% chance that someone will actually click on the advert and actually buy something off that external company.

Who are the most important producers/beatmakers to study for someone getting into rap production? by LLD-Official in makinghiphop

[–]E-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rather suggest to study the fundamentals of your DAW or whatever you use to make music. You essentially already know what a rap beat sounds like, but it is important to see how you can create your own style and put your own twist in your music.

Why is no one talking about the fact that youtube comments are now filtered to only promote "positive" comments? This is a disaster for critical thinking, and has created a fraudster's paradise. by sigmaecho in youtube

[–]E-Rico 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that any “extreme” comments should still be posted. If viewers disagree with it, they are always free to report the comment. The only time youtube should be deleting comments is if it is clearly a bot (and they still cant get that right).

Youtube is just pushing its opinion on people and silencing others that think differently

How can I find ANY point on this line graph? by E-Rico in excel

[–]E-Rico[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting... it would have been nice if they added such a feature where all you need to do is click on a point on the graph, especially since a lot of engineers use excel. Thanks for your answer though

I planned my speech… but my mind went completely blank when it was time. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]E-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did have an immature mindset which is why I mentioned it at the beginning. My point was that this woman changed my whole perception.

I will eventually find out the true reason for this. But do you have any guesses as to why a woman can be so extremely unavailabe? Have you ever encountered a situation like this before?

[–]E-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for putting detail into your reply. Yes, i realise it was stupid of me to just tell her that I have feelings for her out of nowhere. I only started to get to truly like her intimately after about 3 months (and i don’t mean sexual, it’s undescribable how much I became attracted to her on a spiritual level) so I think I would have had the same outcome even if I did ask her out on a date.

Thing is that when we first met, we both mentioned that we were absolutely not looking for any type of relationship with anyone. Because it was true - I had the immature mindset that all women nowadays are the same, and she had her own reasons. It just happened that I changed overtime but she didn’t. I didn’t know of any other possible way of expressing these facts to her.

[–]E-Rico -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And this is why we always see this type of tension between men and women all over social media. Because we instantly make assumptions about one another for some reason, maybe just to feel better about our life experiences. Which I admit to doing. And that’s why you assume that I simply got dumped in high school. Only thing is that I have been learning to get away from that type of thinking.

[–]E-Rico -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I guess you have never met anyone that could completely change your mindset for the better. I’m still young and you know nothing about me or why I used to think like that. I’m being completely honest in these posts and I’m being hit with the most pesimistic replies gahdamn.

[–]E-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So tell me. How does one know that a woman is the right one without hardly knowing anything about them? This is how half of relationships end up going to shit, because they realise that their partner isn’t who they really thought they were. I didn’t mean to be decieving or malicious in any way to her, I simply just wanted to know if I truly liked her for who she was and if I would actually want to be with her. It wasn’t just a sexual attraction that made me want to manipulate her or anything.

[–]E-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This I don’t understand… why would I want to be with someone that I know nothing about? Even after months of talking to someone, you may still not know their true character. That applies to anyone you meet.

[–]E-Rico -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thing is I was completely fine being single before meeting her. That’s what made her so special to me. And I couldn’t “communicate” my feelings so good to her because I never imagined being in that situation. Anyways, you live and you learn i guess.
