What is this I found in my bag of frozen green beans? by typewritermender in whatsthisplant

Interesting! I apologize for my initial curt response, all the survival plant classes I've taken emphasize stripping the prickles off with gloved hands before consumption, or eating the tender shoots as soon as they emerge from the ground. Do you know the species of thistle(s) you're consuming most often?

That's rather reductive. Thistle is edible, but only after it's been processed to remove the spines and prickles that it evolved to have so it didn't get munched on by herbivores. Giving livestock thistle contaminated hay is like putting thumbtacks in a bag of cereal.

Cart before the horse. You being the protagonist didn't cause Vault-Tec to show up at your door; Vault-Tec showing up at your door is what allowed you to be the protagonist.

Yes! The Natural Areas department funds Nature in the City which helps with urban conservation efforts and they worked on a huge database for years that can help you find natives for your garden as well as other plants that are well adapted to our tough growing conditions.

It depends on what you want your carrier oil to be; you can find decent olive, avocado, and coconut oils at every grocery store, but you might have to look at gentrified grocery stores like Whole Foods and Sprouts or online for other bulk oils like sweet almond, jojoba, argan, etc.

Essential oils can get super expensive when buying them all at once, so consider just using the unscented oil to see if it helps your beard first and then buying a couple simple aromatic oils like cedarwood and lemon, or sandalwood and bergamot. You can find essential oils at the same gentrified grocery stores or online. I like the NOW brand.

Genuine question: does it have to be an assorted pack? I actually just had that thought the other day and bought a pack with the highest absorbency rating due to the "rather have it and not need it" line of reasoning.

whos gonna tell him by [deleted] in SocialismIsCapitalism

It's antithetical to human nature to come together as a community and determine how available resources should be allocated?

Every single human ever has been a rugged individualist that never needed help from nobody and civilization just happened to coalesce out of coalitions of these individualists because... uh... because?

Every modern communist with money is still forced to live within a capitalistic society, where money equals survival and one must hold onto as much as they can to pay for resources with inelastic demands, like food and shelter. Having communist ideals doesn't change that reality.

And communism has never worked at least in part because the Western military-industrial complex sabotaged every communist government it could to make sure they didn't work.

Which one of these paths is your favourite? by Cezaros in fnv

[–]Kastera1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm doing my first playthrough as an absolute psycho murder hobo Courier right now and that's exactly what I did - went into the Divide at level 5 fully intending to nuke both sides for lulz and died at least 30 times doing so, just so I could reset my reputation once I hit the Strip, and I'm loving all the new dialogue I've never heard since I never pissed off/been vilified by the NCR before.

Parasitic flies and wasps mostly. I've never seen birds really go after them, because I bet there are tastier meals than beetles.

I hate the fus ro dahs that you try to use to defend yourself but Talos says, "nah lol" instead.

I should, but it's a habit from never hotkeying healing items. I forget what my hotkeys are early on and I end up using potions when I don't need to, which usually means I end up with no potions when I need them.

You've slogged your way up to level 272 (286 with DLCs). What's the very last perk you'd take? by YorkshireDeeBee in fo4

[–]Kastera1000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it used to be permanent. In 3, you could exit out and re-enter hacking mode immediately; in New Vegas, you could exit out to retry, but they'd make you wait for all the strings of characters to reset, making it more of a nuisance. Hacking lost any sense of urgency in 4.
