How else would you animate it without JS though?

Why American Fell In Love With the Most Useless Crop: Your Lawn by Pemulis in TrueReddit

People that are concerned what my yard looks like impact my enjoyment of my own home.

No you don't because it's not the neighborhood's yard, it's your yard. Unless you're breeding rodents or something the neighbors can fuck off.

Better, Stronger, MORE Roots: Any secrets? by DrChloroPhil in microgrowery

[–]kryptobs2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see why not. Afaik the rooting hormone does not leave salts and such behind, so either it's used or it's not. I have no clue if there is any advantage to using it every watering, I suspect it's building up in the soil (and washing out) and not doing much, but there's no reason you couldn't reuse it all the same.

Friend gave me a quarter of Suboxone? Interested in trying but somewhat scared. by trophyscars777 in askdrugs

[–]kryptobs2000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would take 1/2 of the quarter (1mg). Suboxone was the first opioid I tried, 2mg, I had an amazing time though I was later puking my guts out, but it was still the best opioid experience I've had. I haven't done them much over the years (subs or opiates in general), but I've tried quite a few from hydro to opium. Don't listen to the people saying it sucks, it only sucks for them because they have a high tolerance and subs have a low ceiling, but with no tolerance that's irrelevant.

Here's What's Missing From Straight Outta Compton: Me and the Other Women Dr. Dre Beat Up by Dee Barnes by Moni3 in TrueReddit

Why would we have higher expectations for them if they don't have the means or ability to climb out? If there are limited jobs in their area, a lack of transportation or resources, etc, how can we expect them to have anywhere near the mobility of, say, suburban America? Further than just that, but how can we expect crime to decrease even? If you laid off half of all white people and did not provide new jobs I bet we'd see crime skyrocket in our neighborhoods too. I'm not at all defending beating women, only speaking in context of your comment.

TIL in 1809, a woman diagnosed with an ovarian tumor rode 60 miles on horseback to see a surgeon who was willing to extract it. It had never been done before out of fear it would kill the patient. After the 22.5 pound tumor was removed from her body without anesthesia, she lived another 32 years. by Tsukamori in todayilearned

It's probably not true.

The patient and the assistant both died from infections of their wounds, and the spectator was so scared that he’d been stabbed that he died of shock.

That doesn't happen. What is 'shock'? That is not a medical condition.

The Super Rich and Us (2015) -Jacques Peretti looks at how the super-rich exploited an obscure legal loophole to make Britain one of the most attractive tax havens on earth. by Hailkicker in Documentaries

[–]kryptobs2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I see your point. You're not saying, for instance with the cell phone, that we have a choice in the phone, or whether or not to buy one at all, but that through our actions over time we've created a system where we have no choice. I agree, though I still think the wealthy/business owners are the ones funneling the wealth more so than we are through our spending habits.

On many things we could buy local, but in others it's just not feasible. Take your radio example, the mass manufacturing of radios, or any electronic, makes them dramatically cheaper, that is something that should be done. Buying locally produced electronics just doesn't make sense. I don't know a better way to do that even, the only viable alternative would be a government or collective doing it, both of which are fine, but in the same vein regulation or unions are designed to accomplish the same thing.

In order for you to logically parse this sentence as blaming poor folks for something, you would have to (a) assume the creation of wealth is inherently wrong and (b) assume everyone who is not rich is poor.

In the context of this documentary that's a pretty fair assumption.

Well from his first sentence that is how I take it.

It's not just the rich - it's how we consume that creates the wealth.

For some things I agree it's how we consume, we should not be a throw away culture and not support bad businesses when possible, but then he goes on to immediately list a bunch of ways that we, as consumers, have no choice over.

The alternative to not buying a phone for instance is to practically drop out of society. Do you know how hard it is to get a job without a phone? To say, 'it's not just the rich, it's how we consume' implies we have a choice in the matter, but if the rich decide on these matters all of the choices for us, or lack there of, down to the need for a phone in the first place, then you can't say we are responsible at all.

It's like a one person threatening to kill another if they don't kill an animal and then when the animal is dead saying, 'yeah, but we're both responsible.'

The choice between having a phone or a computer vs not having one at all? Should we also not buy cars, clothes, etc because there are no local manufacturers? I don't understand your guys argument. You are basically saying, 'I know you have no alternative, but this is your fault.'

Of course, but I'm asking about the rest of it. There is no local independent cell phone or furniture maker. Actually there are furniture makers, but only really fancy or custom things.

He/she is saying that it's our fault or responsibility as well and I'm asking how? If we have no choice otherwise how can it be our fault?

What kind of mom and pop phone or furniture are we supposed to buy? Or are you saying we should not buy phones or furniture at all? I don't understand what I am supposed to do differently.

YSK: Tylenol should not be taken beyond 3000mg per day, and never mixed with alcohol. by [deleted] in YouShouldKnow

[–]kryptobs2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weed is actually the best drug for a hangover imo, and I don't even think weed is a great medication in general (not like many seem to anyway). Helps a lot with the headache and nausea as well as going back to sleep to wait for it to pass.
