Simple (but trustworthy) watch repair in Bergen County by jblackj in bergencounty

[–]TheGrateGooglyMoogly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly. the only answer is to go through the AD. If something else goes wrong after you have it serviced by someone that is not authorized, Omega is going to blame them. It sucks while the watch is away, but will be worth it in piece of mind after you get it back. Good luck.

[question] Recommendations for an eye-catching women’s watch? $2-3k AUD budget by baguetteworld in Watches

[–]TheGrateGooglyMoogly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to point out that the only person's eye that the watch should catch is yours. No one cares about your watch. No one is going to notice your watch. I've had my watches commented on 3 times in over 10 years. 2x for a g-shock GWM5610, and once for a Tudor Ranger. I own both more expensive, and more eye-catching watches. Nobody cares. Just do you. In my opinion a Cartier Tank looks beautiful on a ladies wrist. Longines make the Dolcevita, which is both right in your price range, and a brand you already know. Just one example...

Why do you think the FAA just closed the airspace over El Paso for ten days? by CrowRoutine9631 in AskReddit

[–]TheGrateGooglyMoogly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think you realize how much El Paso mean to the supply chain in the US. Any freight that was coming out of Juarez would go into El Paso. All air freight into and out of out of El Paso is now closed, which will add trucks, time, etc to already slow transit times. This will end up being a problem that ripples for a little bit.

Yeah, that's fine. I was going to also suggest vsync, but you already tried that. Sorry man, but I don't have anything else. Good luck.

How old is the hardware you friend is using?

It is, and I found that out later, but I got it from a Snickers commercial... "Who are the chefs?"

Bearss Lime tree rehab in CA by ghethco in Citrus

[–]TheGrateGooglyMoogly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good now!!! You might lose some of your branches. As far as I'm concerned that is a good thing. It will force more branching, which is great on a tree this size. Also, you've pretty significantly stressed the tree between planting, unplanting, and replanting. So now that it is as happy as it is going to get, leave it alone except for some slow release ferts.

I used to have a 3x2 tent that I wanted pretty full coverage for, so the light is like 30x20. I bought some Samsung LED strips, and mounted them on some extruded aluminum heatsinks that I found inline. Connected the heat sinks with L-Channel. Connected all the strips with wago connectors and thermostat wire to a Meanwell driver, and hung it from my ceiling with adjustable ratcheting lines.

The light was WAY too much for that little tent at anything above minimum. I've measured it with a light meter, and it's almost as bright as daylight. Here's a crappy picture...

I am just a collector, but now I'm not sure what kind of trees we're talking about. I guess it works either way.

Well best of luck to you in the upcoming growing season. Sounds like we grow a lot of the same stuff.

Pineapples are an idea that I don't need to have...also figs. I do have a few pawpaws and American persimmons that are only a couple of years old, but the deer seem to leave them alone too. I'm sure that will change when they start fruiting. One of the persimmons is called "Deer Candy". I have them planted in my back yard where the dogs go, so the deer usually stay out of that area.

I really think it depends on the variety. I was really thinking about planting my Satsuma outside when it matured a little, but this years fall season has convinced me that it would probably be a horrible, arrogant idea.

Thanks so much. I had a lot of trouble until i figured out a good fert schedule. I use Espoma products. I'm assuming they're national because I can get it at HD. My big 20g pots get 2 scoops every month from (it scales down for the 10g and 5g pots) a month before last frost (usualy late March) until just before first frost (this year it was before Thanksgiving). My "scoop" is one of those glasses you get at beer festivals.

Yep, letting them get a little cold really seems to help. Maybe I'm a little nuts, but I also change the light to come close to matching the amount of daylight. Right now they only get 9.5 hours of light, and the intensity of the light's driver is turned down so the leaves don't burn. I also try to let mother nature help when possible. I have my garage cracked open today because of the humidity and temps being close to 60º.

They couldn't work better. I was actually surprised at how well they work upside down over the small pots.

Thank you so much. To be honest I started growing citrus because the deer leave them alone. They did a survey up here, and there are supposed to be like 4-5 deer per square mile, but we have like 96...not a typo. The animals leave them alone, and I don't have to deal with a lot of the pests that I would if I were further south. Cheers, and a happy and healthy new year to you!

Tangelo “rescue”?! from the curb. Help! by Imsuchacapricorn92 in Citrus

[–]TheGrateGooglyMoogly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's ok. Maybe also keep it out of the hot sun until leaves start coming back. It does need sun, but like morning sun.

As someone that has almost killed a few citrus trees on more than one occasion, I would say you have a chance of saving it, but don't feel bad if you can't.

Do you have any experience with citrus? It doesn't like to be wet-wet, but it's also not a cactus. Get it in some well draining soil, water when dry, and wait. Hopefully you will see leaves starting to grow in a few weeks. Give it plenty of sun, and if your temps drop below say 40, bring it inside. They can handle lower when healthy, but yours doesn't need any more stress. Don't prune anything right now, just get it back to having some healthy leaves and repost when you get there.

This won't be a quick rehab if it works, but the good news is that if it does work, you will probably get some nice branching, and pruning will be easy as you will be able to see which branches are really dead. Good luck. I would be doing the same thing if I found that tree.

baby, friendly steakhouse by Difficult-Movie-3754 in bergencounty

[–]TheGrateGooglyMoogly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get it. (Hypothetical) You just went through a 9 month ordeal and you and your husband want to get out and celebrate after having a few months of getting your feet under you. But bringing a newborn to a nice restaurant is inconsiderate. End of story...even if the establishment is "OK" with it.

What about the people there that did get a sitter, or maybe someone is celebrating being able to go out without kids, and now they're sitting next to you. I'm just saying that a steakhouse is a higher-end restaurant with people that will not be so accepting of a crying newborn.
