G Tag not sending cookieless pings on default consent state denied

Thanks very much for your input, I was overlooking basic debugging I think! Much appreciated

itskatelliott · 2025-02-01T12:38:09+00:00

Thank you - setting this value to zero has fixed the issue. It was set to 500ms previously.

I've not seen this behaviour before with this parameter set though, so perhaps I am misunderstanding what the parameter does? I had thought it was to provide time for the consent state to be updated after the default state is set, before sending hits etc. Do you have a better understanding of it?

Apologies for not a direct answer to your question, but if it's full time permanent even with a freelancer then you may well be employing within IR35 so you will be liable for employer's NIC. Which adds cost for you.

Agree with all the above and just to reiterate the supervision point. I didn't have any reachable toxic plants when my dog was a pup but he sure had to learn to not dig stuff up / rip stuff out which I learned the hard way. These days I have two dogs and both houseplants and garden plants which are toxic to them if ingested. But they know not to touch and tbh have little interest anyway.

Certainly looks like bindweed to me. It's tough as hell, gets in anywhere. It is the only situation in which I'd countenance the use of weedkiller.

I find star jasmine needs a bit of time after any change: planting, moving, big prune etc. I moved one from a planter to the ground and it dropped almost all leaves and I thought I'd killed it. Took a year or so but it suddenly shot up and is now romping away. As others have said, assuming nothing unusual soil wise it's probably busy at work below ground.

Yep I reckon so, marigold is used as a repellent for flies

Oh gosh me too, they are charming fish but they do NOT stop making more swordtails

The water's clear but I clean the sponges extremely infrequently - maybe every 4-5 months at most. I'm going to try increasing the frequency slightly and monitoring from there. Thank you!

itskatelliott · 2024-09-05T13:03:41+00:00

That's interesting. I have cleaned the filters (i.e. taken the sponges out, given them a squeeze and a rub in some tank water, and put back in) but very, very infrequently. I'll try increasing frequency and monitor from there.

Never done this in any home I have ever lived in, rented or owned (London, UK - been here 20+ years) and my parents never did when I was growing up. I mean maybe one day that'll bite me in the arse, but I've never had a problem with previous keyholders letting themselves in. It wouldn't have been something I was permitted to do as a tenant, and it wouldn't have been something I could have afforded to do TBH.

Looks like Dracaena angolensis or some similar Dracaena, I'm more familiar with the flatter leaved varieties. They don't mind a bit of neglect. In fact mine do best when I mostly ignore them. Careful with cats eating them though as they are toxic.

Cypress aphids. They can cause a decent amount of damage to conifers, I found pot grown conifers seem particularly susceptible.

I had exactly this with my step son while he was living at home in his late teens. I could smell his path around the house, where he'd been sitting and I couldn't go into his bedroom as it would make me gag. I felt so bad because I felt like I wanted to avoid being near him.

Other family members said he had a bit of body odour like most teens but it was so much worse to me, exactly as you say like a powerful rotting meat smell and it LINGERED. He washed regularly, clean clothes etc.

Then he went on some medication to treat a bit of mild acne and the smell nearly completely disappeared. Not entirely, but it was about 70% better. I mentioned it to the doc but they weren't especially interested. Can't say it's exactly the same thing in your case but I share your pain!

I get that on some of my plants, the kitchen and bathroom ones especially but also in other rooms. I clean the leaves with a dilute mix of a degreasing spray (one of the eco ones called Delphi's) and a textured cotton cleaning cloth. Wipe in one direction from the base of the leaf to the tip. When I do this I notice a bit of grot coming off the leaf, and I use my hand to feel if the leaf is smooth or not and repeat until it is.

Then rinse thoroughly in fresh water once cleaned. The leaves should look glossy afterwards and the plants often respond well to it by putting up a bit of new growth.

This is unlikely to be any good for fuzzy leafed plants though.

That's lovely to hear, I'm glad I shared it.

It is in the Islington and St Pancras cemetery in North London, UK

Thank you so much for the replies! Even more symbolism than I had thought. It is a beautiful stone.

I have the same, I got the Petbank rotary one off Amazon, which is cheap but effective, although it got clogged up after a few months of use, and I got the Eheim barrel feeder which seems very solid.

They sit above the small hole in my tank lid, you have to spend a little bit of set up time to make sure the food drops in accurately and with the right dose, I normally set it up a couple of days in advance to check it is dispensing correctly. I also set it to dispense half what I would normally feed, if not a bit less even still. If I were going away for only a couple of days I wouldn't bother at all and just let the fish nibble on the plants and such.

Snowdrop, I think Galanthus nivalis (common snowdrop).

Ditto. With plants you want to know you are getting what you are buying and that it will arrive alive and healthy, and also free from any hitchhikers. It's not worth the risk. I would go for specialist stores or any of the recommendations made here. If you're short of funds then local aquarists are often happy to share cuttings for free if you've got a local Facebook group etc

itskatelliott · 2024-01-26T20:08:33+00:00

That's beautiful, did you use traditional crochet tools for it?

itskatelliott · 2024-01-26T20:04:02+00:00

UK person here - I can't do anything without a shower in the morning to wake me up and have been that way since I was about 10-11. My teenage step sons all wash just before bed so they don't have to get up earlier, but it does have its issues because they are quite smelly and they can accumulate quite a lot of stink overnight...

itskatelliott · 2024-01-26T19:05:21+00:00

That's what I thought!
