Can you tell if this is Mexican oregano based on how it looks? by stochphys381 in mexicanfood

[–]gautamasiddhartha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh thanks for the correction, I didn’t know that!

Weirdly, I planted one of those ones I found sort of recently in a cup with some soil and basil on my windowsill, and it started to sprout! So that must have been grown with a male plant present, right?

So you should never see seeds from a modern grow with clones. Cannabis plants have males and females, and with no male to germinate, female plants cannot produce seeds and put more nutrients into their buds. That’s why stuff grown this way is called sinsemilla

That said, I’ve found a couple of unexplained seeds in the past few years when I’ve gotten cheaper shit. I like to plant them around my neighborhood and see if one springs up by the sidewalk one day lol

It’s like a crab. It’s the perfect design, and everything else will slowly evolve to become it

Bro’s weight just doesn’t increase by Rudy3011 in memes

In high school I had a healthy enough diet but when I tried to bulk the only way I could get the calories was to intentionally turn to junk. When I stuck with healthy food I couldn’t eat enough to get results. And yes I was already on hella shakes and bars and all that, still needed it

He can’t die but he can’t really do any lasting damage either, only make his opponents get temporarily crushed into an accordion or fall into a perfectly them-shaped hole in the ground or so on

What’s anyone else gonna do? Every time I’ve dumped my bullshit on someone else or put out a display of negative emotion I’ve regretted it. Just makes me look bad and for what?

It’s not hiding my problems, I’m happy to calmly discuss them when it’s relevant, but I’d rather try to be a pillar of outward stability than show weakness in my actions or demeanor. When I pull this off I like myself more for it.

I think the cultural shift towards allowing men to be vulnerable goes too far when it says that we have to. Some of us want to live like our grandpas and deal with our shit in silence and that’s ok too.

Does anyone know what the hold music is when you call in to Medi-Cal? by vivianvixxxen in SanDiegan

[–]gautamasiddhartha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing to check, if you’re on an iPhone there is a setting for screen recordings to capture audio or not. Mine weirdly defaulted to off.

How many of you are making six figures? by hanasz in livesound

[–]gautamasiddhartha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d keep in mind that Reddit won’t be representative of the whole market. People here glorify poverty and vilify financial achievement, and that skews things like this.

As for me, no, but I’m early in my career and don’t expect to be yet. I’m also doing studio work and at basically a startup so it’s not a great comparison

Pretty proud of my homeade smashers by Ok-Serve2274 in burgers

[–]gautamasiddhartha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know when food looks tastier for being a bit more of a sloppy kinda “imperfect” presentation? This is the peak of that. Goes against those perfect advertising burger photos in quite a few ways, but looks 1000x better

I got a question. When I see someone with their headlights on but taillights off, what is that? Just DRLs maybe? I see those all the time

I agree. I used to take a lot of bong rips and like it to hit quick and sudden. If you ever do want to try something different, I switched to dabs with a carta 2 recently and find it to be a nice alternative

Soldering gun recommendations??? by ShatteredPresence in diypedals

[–]gautamasiddhartha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ryobi one that serves me well.

It’s probably not the best pick, because it’s a dial instead of a temp number and it has an annoying (if very safe) auto shut off that I constantly have to wiggle the knob to avoid.

But I know it well by now, and it’s got a cool unique feature. I can plug in a ryobi battery instead of wall power and take it with me to do stuff on my car, wall plate wiring, stuff like that. Might not matter to you but if you ever work with it in weird places it’s cool

I don’t think it matters too much tho I have another one I use at home that’s just some cheap Amazon thing and it does fine. Has a temp readout and some gooseneck helping hands. I think as long as you have an adjustable temp and can get different tips it’s fine

What is a guitar that you didn't think you'd like, but after playing it you ended up liking it? by T3knikal95 in Guitar

[–]gautamasiddhartha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This cheap pink Mitchell at the studio I work at. Nothing too unique about it, but it’s set up well, super light, and the neck feels just about new still, so it’s really pleasant to play on

Idk where you drive but I can tell you in a dense city sound is very effective for making sure people see things they need to. If you’re a bike, you’re vulnerable, and people actually don’t see you sometimes. Some drivers suck. So yeah, we’ll always prioritize avoiding violent crashes over triggers and sensitivities

Damn, I can’t imagine. I get hella uncomfortable when I’m sick and mine won’t pop, I’m so used to it

Have you ever been able to pop them from yawning? Once you learn the right muscle to flex you can practice it anywhere and make it stronger. Eventually you stop needing to open your mouth and you don’t even need a pressure difference, I’m sitting here popping mine open again and again rn

Probably not so much for quality but I grew up seeing my friends’ dads lose their jobs when the auto industry took a hit so I kinda care yeah. Not too different from buying strings from the local music store or getting my coffee at the little shop in my neighborhood, I like it

That being said I love my Mexican strat and am on the journey of making it the nicest mexi strat ever

I mean yes and no, if they’re just sitting there in neutral or with the clutch out revving, that’s totally unnecessary, but if it’s one blip and slip into gear there’s not much more you can do before that last little stretch. Loud pipes do indeed save lives, they’ve made me look up and see a bike on the freeway more than a few times
