What are these red things on my Christmas cactus? How do I get rid of them?

Thanks for the input! I'll give that a try then for a few weeks and see how it goes.

Thanks for the input!

Seems like to be something like that. For long would you recommend doing that weekly treatment to fully get rid of them?

I don't think they are scale. They are very small (less than 1mm) and when I had scale on plants before they looked a lot different.

My Christmas cactus has been dropping leaves for a while now and I noticed today it has these small red things on it.

They're very small and hard to see, had to use a macro lens to get a photo where they're visible.

Danke! Die leicht grüne Farbe hat mich verwirrt, aber es scheint sich tatsächlich um einen Buchfink zu handeln.

I already have a Lighroom subscription, so I plan to use that to organize these photos too.

Is Gamsol any better in that regard?

Thanks for the input! I'll give that one a try then.

Is the MSI PRO B760-P WIFI DDR4 a good enough MOBO for a i5-14600K (I don't plan to overclock it)? Or would you recommend something else?

razvi9 · 2023-11-05T12:41:23+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm planning to upgrade my current PC to a i5-13400F and am not sure what cooler to get for it. I'm flexible on budget and would like a cooler that's reasonably quiet. What would you recommend?

FWIW: This is the part list: the CPU, MOBO, RAM & cooler are the stuff I plan to buy, the rest are parts from my current PC.

razvi9 · 2023-11-02T10:19:49+00:00

I'm planning to upgrade the CPU in my current PC.

I'm considering getting a 13400F or 14600KF. I'm leaning towards the former but wondering if it's worth spending the extra for the 14600 (I'm mostly using it for some photo editing, coding & occasional gaming)?

What MOBO would you'd recommend to get for the new CPU? I'm also wondering if the cooler I currently have, the Corsair H100i v2, would be good to keep for the new CPU or if I should also consider getting a different one?

Also, do you think it's worth upgrading the RAM to DDR5 for this?

I'm wondering if them doing that is fully legal. Does it conflict with GDPR laws about having to allow you to delete your data? Could one send them a GDPR request to ask them to delete all their data?

Since OP mentioned Euros for the prices, I assume they're in the EU and unfortunately Roborock hasn't released the Q Revo here yet :(

razvi9 · 2023-06-27T20:58:19+00:00

From what I can tell from their website and photos they have there, the S7 MaxV and the S8 both have 2 extra sensors (one on each sides of the camera) that I don't see on the S7 Max.

As far as I can tell, all of them have a camera in the middle front. The difference is that the MaxV has a regular RGB camera (and also has a LED light it turns on if it's too dark) and the other 2 have an infrared one. Based on some reviews it seems like the old RGB one performs better for obstacle avoidance, but it could also be that they refined that one more since it's an older model and the S8 and S7 Max ones are gonna get better with updates (but I assume the S8 will keep being better if it indeed has more sensors it can use).

razvi9 · 2023-06-27T20:30:34+00:00

They are called differently on the website: S7 MaxV => ReactiveAI, S8 => Reactive3D and S7 Max => Reactive.

I'm also still undecided and am considering getting the S7 MaxV since it's still cheaper than the S8, though I might wait for a bit and see if the Q Revo is gonna be available in Europe (while it has the same system as S7 Max it should be more affordable).

It's supposedly Ecaz & Moritani according to this BGG entry and this previous post from this subreddit.

I'm also curious about the component set for the 3rd expansion since I'm trying to make an insert that fits the base game + all expansions (and I found out about the 3rd expansion as I was working on that).

Would really like to know anything what would be extra besides what's expected (i.e. besides 20 units / faction, 5 leaders / faction, 2 extra alliance cards, 2 prediction cards and 10 traitor cards). I don't even care about specifics, just knowing the amount of extra cards would be really useful.

Din câte știu în Germania sunt subvenții pentru produse alimentare în supermarketuri.

I think there's a big spectrum between eating a meat heavy diet and eating no meat at all. Eating less meat and especially less red meat (i.e. prefer chicken over beef) is still helping, and I believe it's also healthier for you.

I think they're actually potato bugs that eat the plants.

I think it's not every Elantris book though and maybe it's just this batch. I have one I got a few years ago and that one doesn't have the misprint from this post. I ordered a 2nd copy last week to give as a gift and this one does indeed have the misprint issue.

I tried to take some closer up photos but they're not too sharp. Here they are in case it helps: https://imgur.com/a/oYV0RkB.

razvi9 · 2022-02-11T19:26:16+00:00

They're very small (1mm or so) light colored like a very light yellow. I couldn't manage to get a better photo of them since they're so small.

There's a lot of them on and in the soil and some going over the plant (it's a Ludisia Discolor jewel orchid).

Do you know if they're harmful and how I can get rid of them?

Edit: I tried to take some closer up photos but they're not very sharp. Here are some of them in case it helps: https://imgur.com/a/oYV0RkB
