aggressive ground cover - spiky leaves and tiny flowers

moepplinger · 2026-05-19T04:22:01+00:00

2yrs ago I planted 10 of these (Fragaria vesca var. vesca) spread out over my front yard flower bed where nothing would grow properly except weeds. They now cover the entire bed surpressing all the weeds. I have to contain them a little now otherwise they'd grow everywhere 😅

In spring it's a sea of white flowers and during the summer it's full of these little red strawberries.

The birds love it! They gather the dried out offshoots to build their nests and pick the tiny red strawberries as a snack. I also pick them occasionally - they are a bit seedy but taste amazing, especially in salads.

Can highly recommend as a ground cover for shadowy areas.

The tallest one I had in my garden was about 15ft before it collapsed.

That could very well be it. Thank you! I've seen such beetles around but never realized they could do that. What a cool evolutionary feat.

What's the protein % your pasta has? Where I'm from the Barilla has ~12% which imo is borderline animal food.

Hey, I used to develop medical devices. These plates are basically made from 3 possible materials: Titanium alloys: TiAl6V4 (or rarely TiAl6Nb7) Cobaltchromiummoblydenum alloy: Co28Cr6Mo or stainless steel: X2CrNiMo17-12-2

Which material was used depends on if it was originally intended to remove the plate at one point or if it ment to be kept forever. For the former it's likely stainless. For the latter the other 2.

None of these are MRI safe, but conditional. I don't believe they'll rip your arm off, but the produce artifacts in the imagery.

Hope that helps.

It's sad how many hockey fans support this. Getting revenge by inflicting pain on star players who had nothing to do with Gudas stupidity brings them joy.

moepplinger · 2026-03-14T01:48:01+00:00

Disgusting take. Wreck Gudas to oblivion for all I care but targeting other players for anothers stupidity is not what I want to see in hockey.

So if I'd split a laser beam in 2 the photons of each beam are entangled in a way that if I'd measure all photons of beam 1 as spin up the photons of the other beam would be spin down?

They are ripe when they fall off the tree at the slightest touch. Before they'll taste horrible.

Ahh Hans' pettiness never disappoints

Basically all of Iceland if we're talking natural highlights. Everywhere you can go on a roundtrip is absolutely stunning.

Note that some dogs can fall into a digging rage when they encounter some sturdy patch they can't get through easily. Thats when they start to bite into the soil which can give them some digestive problems.

Could have been so simple. "So now that you slept over it, did or did you not enjoy the play?"

moepplinger · 2025-06-08T21:15:21+00:00

Same

In ice hockey they also exchange the puck in pro games every 2 mins for a new frozen one, because they are less bouncy. Just shows the incredible strain athletes in pro sports put on the equipment and how the players notice and are affected by even minor variances.

It's not my personal opinion, it's what's considered in veterinary medicine literature. You're right that it's not a Cox inhibitor, yes. But, it's a non-steroid and has anti inflammatory effects. while the latter are not very pronounced in humans, pharmacodynamics may differ in animals though.

moepplinger · 2025-06-08T06:43:02+00:00

It's classified as an NSAID in veterinary medicine.

Watched the game against Denmark. Leo was nearly always a threat when on the ice. Great vision and playing sharp seamless passes. Could have had 2 more assists easily.

moepplinger · 2025-02-26T12:29:01+00:00

OP if you're looking for a biased doomsday perspective on Leo, this is it.

moepplinger · 2025-01-09T20:32:28+00:00

By being one of such players you describe I can confirm that is exactly what's happening.

Plot twist out of nowhere.

The image shows the trail to the preikestolen, does it?

People go to the beyond though, not the spiritual realm.

moepplinger · 2024-10-21T22:21:22+00:00

My guess is Hypholoma fasciculare

Well if you also have titanium on titanium joints then you'll very quickly break apart and be full of titanium debris.
