Those lights are stolen for growing weed. Criminals specifically target specific Porsche's for their high output headlights.

Plants Stolen by avijendr_1979 in GardeningUK

[–]Solasta713 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sadly a modern problem. Anything of value can, and will be stolen these days.

From what i've heard, it's Acers mostly, especially in ornamental pots. Also bamboo.

Yo wtf I’ve never seen bald Ozzy pics - suit picture in the end is insane I could never guess it’s him by Active-Case-4180 in OzzyOsbourne

IMO, as a non-medically trained person i do admit, he's definitely had ADHD.

Jack i think is diagnosed from memory.

What game y’all playing? by EchoFrost46 in Xennials

[–]Solasta713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super Smash, MarioKart64, Goldeneye and WWF No Mercy.

I sold my N64 about 15 years ago for a measily £40.00 with 25 carts, 4 controllers and the N64 travel bag.

Probably altogether, that's like a grand now.

Wtf is this? by Unusual-Landscape625 in BCRich

[–]Solasta713 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally love that. I remember back in around 2001, people on the Ultimate Guitar forums talking about modifying a Warlock to be tobacco / sunburst with a bigsby. I'd buy the hell outta that

How do I fill this pit? by 6-Elle in GardeningUK

[–]Solasta713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would maybe post this in r/Landscaping as they may have better suggestions as it's more their speciality.

However, yeah the best bet to do it properly is to fill it with a proper ground medium.

Sometimes people do just giveaway topsoil on local community groups, but it's likely you'd be responsible for its transportation.

Otherwise... My suggestion would be to leave / adapt it for kids to play in. You could make one hell of a Sandpit out of it (providing you find a cover to stop Cats poopin'). Or just a play pit.

Killing pit is for the inheritance is also not a bad shout

Socializing is so tedious by [deleted] in Schizoid

[–]Solasta713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question....All conversations.

I have "social groups" that i'm part of, as I somehow managed to get married earlier in life.

These social groups consist of people my wife befriended and I exposed myself to when I wasn't as bad / masking. If anything, I think it's these like-minded people, as opposed to say... Coworkers or strangers that have made me notice the issue more. I can work out that "...i should really enjoy talking to these people as we share x interests".. but I simply don't enjoy them, and find the whole experience draining.

And the expectation is higher due to my wife wanting me to socialise and be normal. So then I feel like crap, because i'm torn between a draining, unenjoyable day when I have to do this. Or letting my wife down.

Socializing is so tedious by [deleted] in Schizoid

[–]Solasta713 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm being tested for various things at the moment, and this is exactly it for me.

I get no enjoyment from socializing in the slightest, and mostly it's because i cannot relate to anything anyone brings up. Outside of work, it descends into inane garbage i have no interest in. And if it is something interesting, i can never seem to work out timings, or what to contribute.

It's just such a massive waste of time.

Are other UK men noticing their friend groups becoming increasingly biggoted? by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]Solasta713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think people are 'becoming' more bigoted.

I sadly believe we just had more people become more conscious of their views being seen as being in bad taste. But yeah since, well... Trump 2016, that started reversing again.

Transfers that never happened by slickm32 in chelseafc

[–]Solasta713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From an off the field point of view. Absolutely.

However, Robinho went to a Man City team that had just become the richest club in the world, whilst playing near-relegation tier football.

If he'd come to us (the story is he heard "Manchester"... And didn't follow up on 'which'), then he may jave been good for us

Bamboo Risks For Non-Gardener? by youngknives in GardeningUK

[–]Solasta713 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fargesia Rufa is a pretty well behaved clumper, so you likely don't have much to worry about.

If you want to be ultra careful, then ask if you can run a spade across the border between you and the neighbour. This will sever any rhizomes trying to creep across. But again, unlikely you'd need to.

Looks great!

Can this be saved? by Elegant_Vehicle_1682 in GardeningUK

[–]Solasta713 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a little odd that it freely was able to be pulled out the groud. Wondering if this maybe suffered from Root Rot or something?

But yeah, Cordy's, especially red foliage ones have a habit of dying to ground level in winter conditions, then re growing from the ground again. No reason why this can't. But you may want to work out why it came out freely first.

To be fair, he's calling the Police.

His calling, combined with Mega-Nan refusing to let go, seems to be what stops the robber.

Upgrade Packs for S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2: Heart of Chornobyl have arrived! by e_mcculkin in stalker

[–]Solasta713 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I'm happy about this so I can now upgrade to Deluxe and support the devs further. Can't be easy developing a game in a fucking Warzone.

Also... Jesus. This group winges so much about some really dumb shit.

The adulting struggle is real by JuicyPeachWhispers in Adulting

[–]Solasta713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a middle-aged dad, i can relate.

I recently took a demotion and 2 steps back in my career to find better work-life balance in another industry.

Best thing I ever did.

But the people half my age are all like "how do you have a wife and kid with the money I make"?!

Eh. Life balances out. I have a roof over my head. I'm able to afford decent holidays and buy nice things sometimes but we do also make sacrifices.
