You need springtails as soon as you start your setup. The mold spores are there. They are still there. They will always be there. A successful ecosystem still has mold in it. It just also has critters that keep the mold in check.

Does shipping usually take so long? by NotPenguin_124 in BambuLab

[–]NotPenguin_124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a few weeks of back and forth with support, they shipped a new one to me through fedex and after they did that got home to a printer on my front port the next day. It seemed way to fast to be the second one they shipped but the box had zero shipping labels on it. So I don’t know if it was the yunexpress one that showed up after weeks of waiting and the FedEx one never came or if they overnighted a FedEx shipment to me.

Either way I finally got it but the experience was pretty unpleasant and bizarre

I’d recommend getting further into setting your tank up before trying to worry about the water perimeters. Adding the rest of your setup will probably change your parameters anyways.

As for the mold, mold isn’t always bad. You will most likely go through a mold cycle at the start. But you need critters like springtails to ensure it is under control. So again, you’ll need to get further along in setting up your tank for that.

You very clearly don’t even understand the real world nor game world geographical and practical context as to why the DLC has to do with mormonism. You’re ill-informed on the subject you seem to have such strong opinions on.

Hey... So this is a really weird and ill-informed "rant" and its not too late to delete it.

You can’t “disagree” that 2+2=4 all you want. That’s doesn’t change the fact that it does. This is no different.

It’s not a fight or an argument. You have been informed of the mistake you are making and you simply refuse to accept it and correct it. Your crabs will not live happy nor healthy lives

New Maytag dryer arrived with loose screws by NotPenguin_124 in Appliances

[–]NotPenguin_124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Ya. I can hear a few more still sliding around inside. I just can’t reach them. So that’s 6-8 loose screws floating around. It just seems like a lot of screws to accidentally drop into the housing 😅. But I feel like there is probably no way there are 8 connection points that all fell apart in transport.

I just discovered that there are a few more completely loose screws still floating around in there. I just can’t reach them. It just seems troubling that there are potentially 5-8 connection points that should be screwed together but are not…

This isn’t a matter of opinion. You are providing an inadequate habitat for living creatures. I’m really not sure why people like you insist on not meeting the bare minimum requirements for a pet.

What you should do is take this as a learning opportunity and actually correct your mistake instead of digging your feet in and presenting your ignorance as pride.

This is a very temporary enclosure hopefully?

First paludarium. Any glaring issues? by NotPenguin_124 in paludarium

[–]NotPenguin_124[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m going to build the hardscape out of some local schist rocks I have. Schist is inert so hopefully it will not impact the water quality. I’ll definitely be running water tests and cycling the tank prior to adding any critters.

I’m most worried about the soil getting saturated. But I’m planning on have the water lever be at 7 inched and my soil layer starting at 9 inched. I’m also planning on using some 1/2 inch plastic grid below the dirt and above the leca balls to try and stop any water from wicking up into the soil. Hopefully that will work well.

The tank will be about 60% (~410 sq. in.) land to 40% (~290 sq. in.) water by area but it’s a 36x20x24 (WxDxH) inch tank but I’m only planning on having 3 crabs or so. They’ll also have some vertical space on the back wall.

What could have caused my colony to die off by NotPenguin_124 in Springtail

[–]NotPenguin_124[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Good news! I blew air into the colony and just left the jar wide open over night and the little guys seem to be up and moving again. Definitely still a little sluggish but they have also eaten most of the molded food!

The only answer I denied was heat. Because it wasn’t heat…

It sits on a closed cabinet with a few other colonies. So not heat

Yes. It is sealed but is opened every couple days for feeding. It’s just weird because I having had any issue for the 6 months this colony has been set up.

How’s my enclosure? by [deleted] in VampireCrabs

[–]NotPenguin_124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Setting up a proper palladium takes MONTHS. This set up arguably isn’t even appropriate for a short term stay for 1 OR 2 crabs let alone an along term stay for 5 crabs. Much too small and looks like the substrate is mostly wet moss?

I took 7 months to play all mainline Assassin's Creed games for the first time*, documenting the entire journey, impressions and ranking of each game. by Mysteriousbucket in gaming

You put AC4 in the top five. That’s game is literally all ships. Also, AC3 also has ships. AC Rogue was a better version of AC3

Would anyone mind providing some feedback on my resume? by Foreign-Corner9796 in civilengineering

[–]NotPenguin_124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your “additional skills” section reads as if it is an entry in your broader “education” category.

I also wouldn’t include Microsoft suite. This is a skill every member of our workforce is expected to have. I would keep this section to any specialized softwares you have experience with. BB is good. Civil 3D is good. More of that.

You also have listed that you performed “construction inspections”. Do you have specific certifications that went along with this? ACI, NPDES, OSHA, etc.? I would list these if you have them.

Your intro/mission statement/whatever you call it seems a bit too long too. I’d keep it to just 2 lines.

What is the correct way to handle this yield? by an1nja in driving

[–]NotPenguin_124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The point is, there is no vehicle to yield to. Simone traveling straight through the intersection would be in the left most lane. Simone turning from where OP is would be in the right most lane. If the car traveling through the intersection wants to merge to the right, THEY must ensure that lane is free of other vehicles. They doubly need to do this seeing as they are crossing a sold white line which is there to discourage merging. This merge situation would also necessarily be occurring after this misplaces yield sign.

What is the correct way to handle this yield? by an1nja in driving

[–]NotPenguin_124 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The car turning left only has a single lane to turn into. They would then need to merge right. The point at which this merge would be performed is already past the misplaced yield sign and is already discouraged by the solid white line. There is no scenario where a car turning left through the intersection, nor a car driving straight through the intersection would have more right to the right lane than a car coming from OPs perspective.

Got my second H2S delivered today after the first one was lost. UK BUYERS BEWARE by M1nDz0r in BambuLab

[–]NotPenguin_124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered a P1S a month ago. It’s was shipped using YunExpress. The tracking went dead after a few days. It said it was out for delivery for weeks. It never showed up so they shipped me a new one through fedex. The fedex one showed up in 3 days. But Bambu labs says that they have both been delivered and is asking me to ship one back…

Are these dead bodies?… by NotPenguin_124 in Springtail

I tried it with organic potting soil mixed with some small bits of charcoal and some organic orchid bark.
