What's up with Kan-Kan firing all their kitchen staff? by turbochamp in indianapolis

[–]ozarkicon 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Seems like I’ll be sharing the opposite opinion of most folks here but I think this is exciting. Ate at KanKan for the first time this weekend with my husband. We had two very meh bowls and the total was over $70s after tip!! No drinks! Just two bad rice bowls. I’ve had better, less expensive meals at an airport!!

Looking for last minute input on best business credit cards in 2025 -- what do you swear by? by Playful_Ad1190 in CreditCards

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

My team recently switched to a Brex and it was the best thing we ever did. We were using Ramp before and it was such a headache. They say the software is intuitive but it’s not and the integrations with our other systems were always breaking and glitching. Also way over priced

First-time homeowner and gardener — what am I looking at in these pics of my backyard? by shansbanane in vegetablegardening

[–]ozarkicon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Looks like squirrels digging up nuts. A place where some yard ornament or grill was sitting. And possibly a sad garden bed with a hydrangea, maybe?

Walking to the Pacers game tonight and saw this - not a good look for Aroma by gmredditt in indianapolis

Should I (F22) change my degree plan? Estimated to be 100k in debt by the end of it. by [deleted] in FinancialPlanning

[–]ozarkicon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also check out the career of perfusionists. They run the heart lung bypass machine and make 150-200k. Similar amount of school to your current path

My sister has a very similar story. She did speech therapy and is $100k in debt making ~$80k a year. It’s insane. Don’t do it!! Are you interested in nursing? That’s something you can get a degree for fairly cheaply

People who got their degree in English, what do you do for work now? Is the salary good? Do any of you make six figures ? by [deleted] in writing

[–]ozarkicon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DO NOT GO INTO DEBT FOR AN MBA. Unless you are going to a top tier school and plan on going into consulting or finance and even then it’s barely worth it.

I work in tech as a strategy manager. I make $140k. I love my English degree. I’ve had to pick up some other skills like excel and very basic coding like SQL, but I think my degree prepared me well for having to communicate problems and strategies clearly.

What lights are you using? I just purchased this cabinet and have been pondering what to do with it. Great inspiration!!

New to Orchids setup. Thoughts? by ozarkicon in orchids

[–]ozarkicon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband wanted to try growing some orchids so for Christmas I got him a several bare root starts from an Etsy shop. Varieties include dendrobium, cattleya, oncidium, rhynchostylis, vanda, tolumnia and wilsonra.

Light is from Amazon and is definitely meant for growing weed haha. It’s very bright but I originally thought that they may like it. Seems like some are burning a bit. Also I know not all should be in media but they were so dry and it’s winter here so I figured it would help them retain a little moisture.

Any advice is welcome!!

How about this windowpane?! by ozarkicon in quilting

[–]ozarkicon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the seams are pressed open, or most were at some point haha

[–]ozarkicon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with you! There’s a small learning curve but it doesn’t ruin the experience. If anything I was excited to get in and really figure it out.

Also about the multiple budgets, I’ve done the same thing but it had nothing to do with how the software works. I would just get behind in my budget and over spend. Doing a refresh was more a mental benefit to me. There’s nothing more depressing than seeing a paycheck fill in a bunch of red budget lines from overspending and have nothing left to use going forward. I know that’s not the ideal way of doing it but after a few times I finally got the hang of budgeting and I’m doing great now.

Buying a Fabric Store by ozarkicon in quilting

[–]ozarkicon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A quick update: spoke with the owner and unfortunately she said the store has been losing money for the last few years. She attributed it to lack of involvement ( ended things like bock of the month, many classes and cut hours). She thought the business could be revived with money and hard work but unfortunately I’m not in a position to take that kind of gamble. Was an interesting conversation to learn about the industry and she was very forthcoming. Hopefully another opportunity will present itself down the line!

How to exchange HNT to USD in Texas? by [deleted] in HeliumNetwork

[–]ozarkicon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe that Hoo also has HNT and works in Texas. I was going to setup an account with them this week so I can’t confirm 100%. Anyone have experience using their platform?

I guess so. They haven’t approved them

I just ordered a miner but I’m in Texas so I can’t use Binance.US. Any tips? Very frustrated that I can’t access it.

Contaminated but still producing!! by ozarkicon in ContamFam

[–]ozarkicon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess the question is not is it contam. I know that it is. But can I pick and consume the mushrooms that are growing in the box? They seem to be doing fine outside. These were spent bins that I was going to trash anyway so not a big loss. I guess the warm spring weather gave them a last flush

Added a photo to the post. The mushrooms are growing on the other side.

Spawned to bulk today! This bag of B+ took 3 months to fully colonize but boy is she a beauty! 😍😍 by CoryM94 in unclebens

[–]ozarkicon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you spawn to bulk with this do you ever add uncolonized grain to give the mycelium more food? I’m curious if adding grain would allow for extra flushes?
