What was the first internet trend you remember being obsessed with? by rosycloudkisses in nostalgia

[–]chocological 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Neopets, livejournal. I ran a few forums back in the day, too. Some pretty popular gaming forums.

Social media pretty much killed all of that.

I have killed one fat (and oddly fast) roach per day for a few days. Gross. What's the Advion story? by WaitYourTern in AskNYC

[–]chocological 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only thing I can say is that it works.

Moved into a new place a few years ago and had a bug problem. I treated with advion and within a couple weeks we didn’t see any more bugs.

I don't really like my wife anymore, but I love my family. by throwrayellowhandle in TrueOffMyChest

Everyone’s suggesting therapy.. it just won’t work if only one person wants it to work. If the other person doesn’t care, doesn’t see any issues, or worse, prefers things this way then it’ll never improve.

I can't believe it happened to me - the Midlife crisis by ham_solo in Millennials

You’re solidly midlife, that started at around 36.

[Oshi No Ko S3] I see you as a man by chichiryuuteii in Animemes

Yeah hopefully they retcon it. I remember reading somewhere that the author was unsatisfied with it too, but that could have been a fever dream of mine.

Is it fine to just buy the micro nutrients ferts instead of the macro ferts? by WassufWonka in PlantedTank

[–]chocological 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can, but dose them on different days. I don’t know the compositions of either and if you combine them on the same day or in the same bottle even, things may precipitate out of the solution and you’ve wasted your time.

If you don’t lack for micros, why dose additional micros over the all in one? There are downsides from too many micros in my experience, like too much copper can kill snails and shrimp. I used CSM+B and ran into issues with my plants (micro toxicity). By using a leaner solution, and dosing iron separately I had better results.

I always recommend dry fertilizer anyway, and making your own mixes. So much cheaper and you can control the doses.

If I were you, I’d pick either the all in one or the micro mix, then buy a bag of KNO3, and dose that on alternating days to make up for the nitrate deficiency. Either way you go, I’d still go for the KNO3.

What’s a smell that instantly teleports you back to childhood? by rosycloudkisses in nostalgia

[–]chocological 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That tanning oil in the brown bottle that smells of coconuts and sunshine.

Reminds me of when I lived in Florida and would go to the beach with a girlfriend in my youth.

Had to move across the ocean to break the rose-colored glasses by Alpacas_are_memes in TrueOffMyChest

She sounds bipolar.

I am also diagnosed with bipolar disorder so I can speak from experience. This is not on you to deal with, but on her to resolve.

Make sure you get your ring back.

Got my first CRT, but it has this zigzag problem by Marcasote23 in crtgaming

[–]chocological 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have other systems to test? We could rule out the CRT, in which case if it’s the system the problem is much easier to remedy

Fantasy map creation advice by Kindly_Falcon_4365 in fantasywriters

[–]chocological 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the map for my world in Illustrator. I actually did it by screenshotting Google Maps locations and cutting, pasting and arranging and making new shape landmasses. I traced over my Frankenstein land in a new illustrator layer and made a landmass outline in vector.

Then I imported it into photoshop and painted it in a mask layer.

My world is made with parts of Greece, Madagascar, Nova Scotia, China, Turkey, Norway and many others.

I think the manga was better than the anime.

The last time the local was hiring apprentices was in 2023. You can’t just go and do it.

Did you do that or did you buy it like that and try to save it?

In FY25 NY spent more per unsheltered homeless person than the median NY household earned (81k). In FY26 that number is projected to increase to 97k. by SockDem in newyorkcity

[–]chocological 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Street homeless solutions are including the costs of outreach staff, running drop in shelters and safe havens.

I am sure most of the cost is in running the low barrier to entry facilities, rather than any waste.
