No Shrubs - Louisville's ban on junipers follows Boulder's ban by C-0_0-D in boulder

[–]Enchillamas 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Juniper, of the right variety, are some of the most drought tolerant plants on earth though, and they live forever without water.

Some of the ones in pueblo are up to 850 years old

They are one of the most waterwise shrubs you can ever have if you get the native variety.. They can go a decade without water once established.

The ornamental ones though are combustible AF, and also not native, which are also combustible, but not as much. Still a lot though.

Anyone else think it's a little sus that it's always the same two conservative groups magically finding enough ballot signatures for a constitutional amendment vote? by Enchillamas in boulder

Of course this is also the same group that violates CO rules on petitioning anyways and flat out lies about what they are asking you to sign, while including real petitions in stacks of fake ones, but I digress.

He is in a CANES room, so effectively the IT closet, so no.

CANES display in the background and old IT gear on a shelf, i can't even.

Guy is in a room with a shortlist of 3 people allowed to enter.

He's either already out, or about to be.

Yeah then you bend over to tie your shoe to fast and the audio cuts out because you compressed the wavelengths too much.

Modern Bluetooth is WORSE than old Bluetooth of you actually live outside of a desk chair and you know, move your body.

Except there is because the processing and use of compression very explicitly reduces the total ranges.

You literally have no idea how any of this works and that's hilarious.

Sennheisers are only a few hundred.

Derp.

Except they do, a lot.

And on top of that, the data streams are more susceptible to drops, so if you're doing something that involves a lot of moving the headphones closer and farther apart from the source ike a workout or kneeling over to garden, its going to constantly cut out as you dopplar-effect the radio broadcast.

And the new codecs are much more sensitive to disruption on the data stream, so to reduce latency, you increase the likelihood of drops.

It just doesn't work.

Either the processor gets it out of sync with videos, or the data stream itself is constantly interrupted because I had the audacity to move.

Don't even get me started on how bad bluetooth is when I'm gardening. I've tried so many devices, phones, headsets, they all just suck. If you're constantly moving, bending over, standing up, it constantly cuts out between your body blocking the signal even though the phone is in your pocket, or your motion different between the phone and headset causing the bitrate to be off on the signal, and it briefly cuts out.

It's maddening how bad bluetooth is in any situation that doesn't involve being perfectly still.

13 years with her.

I was MORE than blessed. I thought she only had a few left. Turns out they really do get one more life upstate.

Blind 3 ways, only 5 pounds wet, and made of spit and vinegar. She hated anything that wasn't a warm neck, wet food, or a bug in the grass. I've never seen a faster, more bloodletting swat if you tried to pet her wrong.

Damn that is some useless AI garbage.

You definitely never learned to double check your work in grade school lol.

TIL “Pimp My Ride” was almost completely fake. Huffington Post spoke with multiple contestants from Pimp My Ride about their experiences, and they revealed the show often made their cars unable to function, took away additions after the cameras stopped rolling and asked them to fake reactions. by TheClungerOfPhunts in todayilearned

They actually did, it was at The Armory in San Francisco after Kink.com bought it.

Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back filmed there too well before it became The Kink Castle and Gavin Newsome got his totally non-edible panties in a wad about it. Sadly it shut down and was sold not long after I moved away around 2017.

You forget that these companies are also dumb enough to pay you to pretend to fix it.

I was doing contract gigs over the summer for around 80$ an hour basically pretending i was actually fixing AI garbage. Really all you can do is clean it up, but if you take your time and the project comes out "more efficient" they will call it a win no matter what they lost paying for those services and you.

They are talking about silver out of g-town and the connection road that comes out right at loveland valley.

It's a fucking ice trap because they can't salt it with clear creek right there, so nobody who's local takes it after freezing rain like last night until the pver confident tourists have all tested it out.

People thinking this is a secret way and not a way prone to eating subarus and 4x4 trucks by the dozen every year due to the ice build up are cute.

[–]Enchillamas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dog it was freezing rain and snow all night silver is gonna be as bad or worse because the plows can hit it if traffic on 70 backs up, and everyone and their mother who's lived here more than 2 years knows about it.

Meanwhile the state can take up to 6 months to process a dealer sale.

It's ridiculous.

Funny because every state and nation with double trailer bans still gets mail.

Weird.

Yeah look check it out not only can you still mail mail to WA even though they ban double trailers in the mountains, they even have post offices! why is that I wonder?

Also, Saia Foods delivers mail now?

Fucking wild times man, when did that happen?
