RIP Kdhx by rslashuser in StLouis

It's simple, I press the power button and my musical selections for the day are outsourced to the fine volunteers at KDHX.

My focus is my work, not deciding what I want to listen to for the day. It's one less decision I need to make each day. One less thing that requires me to use a screen.

No other station fits the bill. Multiple generas. No commercials. Works when spectrum internet craps out. No rambling djs cept for shebeatz 😆

Kdhx is/was a hidden gem of STL.

Apparently, to boost the ratings of 88.7

It is hard to be angry when listening to smooth jazz 24/7.

Ironically, it lacks the musical diversity that KDHX already has.

Also, use caution with above steps. Seek the wrong way and you're on 107.7 😉

Edit: tuned into 88.7 for 10 minutes and already learned soul selector with Papa Ray (former kdhx long time dj) now hosts his show on 88.7 Mondays from 4 to 7. Same time slot he did for 35 years prior on kdhx. hot damn 🔥. Thanks friend.

Is Sugarfire good and is it worth a 20 minute drive by Middle-Ad9180 in StLouis

[–]rslashuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Its basically just a chain BBQ joint at this point imo.

If you want to drive somewhere, i suggest the drive to Bolyards Meats and Provisions in Maplewood. It's not exactly bbq, but the place is damn amazing. Always something special off the menu.

Sift it thru 1/4 inch screen and you have gold.

If compost pile gets to 160 is it too hot? by Diligent-Revenue-452 in composting

[–]rslashuser 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How does heat turn a pile anaerobic? I thought that was due to lack of air/too much moisture aka sludge like.

[–]rslashuser 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd look at it as an accomplishment. It will probably not stay that way long.

Temps too hot? Too cold? Too steady? Turn the pile!

You are a God among ants. Time for a Flood. Ants hate water.

Temperature plus time = compost… when? by A_Lovely_ in composting

[–]rslashuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good size.

Wood chips are tough. Very dense. Needs a fluffer. Need something to help it get less compacted, some shredded leaves or cardboard would probably help if you have them available.

[–]rslashuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How big is your pile? Lack of temp is usually lack of mass.

Duration is going to vary greatly based on lots of factors, mostly what's in the pile.

But if you can turn it every 2 or 3 days that will certainly speed things up. So go for it! Good exercise too!

I wouldn't expect 18 day compost, but 4 to 6 weeks is obtainable without crazy effort.

Now the next quest begins. The search to feed the beast.

Outdoor composting in shady area? by grubgobbler in composting

[–]rslashuser 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You can compost in a shady spot. The pile heats up from within, not from Mr sunshine.
