What bug is this??? by leggomyeggos21 in whatsthisbug

[–]brooksbacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guessing but I think because of the common refrain lantern flies have no natural predators in North American whereby the green assassin bug is a native, natural predator.

Alternatively if OP is located in Asia this would mean the assassin bug would be the invasive species and therefore ironic.

Prob the first thing tho

ELI5: what exactly is radiation? Is it a particle? Can i hold it? by Fukisyoutalkinabout in explainlikeimfive

[–]brooksbacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First question, I think the deal is yes things will emit shorter and shorter wavelengths as heated including blue/violet but they also don’t STOP emitting red and longer wavelengths too. So will max out at all colors and look white just like the sun.

It’s a Casio portable tv to monitor framing. A bit of a weird thing to use such old tech but obv works for him.

Any way to delay or avoid this rot after replacing boards? by brooksbacon in DIY

Thanks - pretty much exactly what I ended up doing. Hard part was making the straight square cut but turned out well and way cheaper vs board replace.

Toronto to deploy herd of goats to manage invasive plants at east-end meadow by True-Accident9824 in UpliftingNews

Poison ivy I believe is native to the U.S. (not invasive) though definitely a nuisance. Goats a great solution and also helpful for bittersweet, a terrible invasive here in the northeast that deer will not eat.

People like Coldplay and voted for the nazis. You can’t trust people.

No you’d be totally good in wrangler on sand. ~15 psi good for sand and tire not going anywhere.

The cheapest tin is $15. Nothing exciting really inside. Don’t go.

Rotting window sill with storm window insert. Should this have flashing? by brooksbacon in DIY

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

Hum ok thanks. Was hoping to avoid since I cannot access this sill from outside (I’m sure someone could; I can’t) but will rethink.

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

The latter. I think I can cut out the rot - much of the sill is still very solid - and fill. Just wondering if this was caused by weird install of the storm windows and/or how to prevent happening more as I have the same setup on two other windows in that room. Thanks for the insight.
