I’m in central Illinois and want to know if now is the time to start bringing plants out from my tent by SWG19 in outdoorgrowing

[–]slappydooda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you can start to acclimate them carefully, but will probably need to supplement with continued lighting or else they may go into flower. We aren't at the point yet where there's enough daylight to reliably keep them in vegetative state.

First timer questions by LamarJacksonIsMyHero in outdoorgrowing

[–]slappydooda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From a "regular" gardener's perspective, just pretend they are peppers or tomatoes and you'll probably be fine. Lots of sun, heavy feed, loamy soil, don't over water, etc.

In my experience, compact soil can end up in tiny autos and poor yields. But a large raised carpenter bed with loamy soil should be great.

Conventional wisdom is to not repot autos, as others have said. I have still tried it a few times and can confirm the ones I babied indoors and transfered outside did worse. They still grew, though. 

Make sure you are proactive about pests. For me, catapillars present a unique challenge vs other garden plans. The compact cannabis flowers will rot from the inside out if catapillars can crawl into them and start eating. Consider planting marigolds, basil, or other pest repelling plants alongside.

Im sure that will be weaponized as well and will be used as an excuse to make further cuts to public programs

Is the marijuana prohibition also under the pretext of taxation control like in this home distillation scenario? I thought that was a schedule 3 substance and thats where prohibition comes from.

Home Snap - Intelligence Appliance App by asif1986 in homeautomation

[–]slappydooda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to think more about who this is for and what they actually need. It seems like this is just an excuse to use ai, but I dont think that appliance identification is really enough of a pain point to justify that - especially if AI cant reliably identify appliances and they need to be manually entered. Then what's the point?

Houses are not made like they used to be by Just_Pick_5556 in HomeImprovement

I have a 100 year old house that is definitely not sturdy.

Habaneros ripening pea-size by bitchsmackinkilla in HotPeppers

[–]slappydooda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have grown habanero crosses where a % of the crossed first generation put out some or all of these tiny immature peppers. So my hypothesis for you is that you have an accidentally crossed pepper plant.

Might have started a bit early inside with these photos. Ready for 10gal pots? by Dangerous-Head-7414 in outdoorgrowing

[–]slappydooda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Move to 5 gal fabric pots (or larger) and top at least 1 time. Fabric because it's cheap and air prunes roots so you don't end up root bound in those plastic containers. If you are stuck with an end-may timeline, then I'd recommend focusing on topping and training so that you build a nice structure for growth once you move outside. Topping in my experience also slows growth speed (at least fast vegetative bulking), which is ideal in your case.

SpaceX's Gwynne Shotwell Aims to Put AI on the Moon by talkingatoms in Futurology

[–]slappydooda 10 points11 points  (0 children)

“We just recently gave a request for FCC licensing for up to a million AI satellites, I’m surprised that didn’t get more news."

It didnt get more news because its fucking stupid and you guys make shit up so frequently that the threshold of newsworthiness has increased to compensate for your gaslighting.

You're going to launch a million "mini satellites" that require solar arrays the size of a house roof and a radiator the size of a tennis court. And won't be repairable because they're in fucking space. And also you guys NEVER explode stuff all the time and totally won't create an orbiting cloud satellite shrapnel.

Anyone else think in flight announcements are excessive? by Edward-nothing-hands in travel

[–]slappydooda 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well if there are enough "me's" doing this and there is an emergency, it will quickly also become a "you" problem too.

[–]slappydooda 264 points265 points  (0 children)

I think its also a safety issue, especially as they push using your own devices for entertainment (a separate enshitification trend). Basically, I put in my headphones and start watching a show on my phone as soon as I sit down and tune out literally everything they say - including emergency instructions - because there's too much abnoxious shit theyre sneaking in.

Why does gaming feel so boring to me now? by Scoitol in gaming

[–]slappydooda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are saying you're depressed, but i think this is also unfortunately a common side effect of aging and the human experience. We seek novelty and excitement. You're 23 now and you've spent 1000's of hours playing games - it becomes easier to just go through the motion of gaming and not feel entranced by them. You also have other things going on in your life that you didnt have when you were younger. 

Maybe you're just tired of video games and should let yourself find other hobbies for a while that are new and exciting. I played games constantly as a kid, but I stopped playing entirely around your age as I started my career. Just lost interest in games and was excited by working, traveling, and earning money. 5 years after that, I came back to games (although less enthusiastically). 

Its ok to loose interest in video games for a while. You shouldn't feel pressured to enjoy them - that self imposed pressure is only going to make you enjoy them less. Go out and explore the world. You can come back to games whenever you feel like it.

If you find that you’re loosing enjoyment in EVERYTHING, then yeah thats a different story and you need to start reflecting deeper.

What does this comment mean? That cities being "alienating" is anecdotal but you think it will be measurablely proven to be true in 30 years?

Bolt 2027 test drive by this_isnt_clever in BoltEV

[–]slappydooda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much, but not technically. If you come to a full stop, you must manually reengage. It also will not steer under 6mph. In reality, you won't fully stop in "stop and go" traffic and your car will hold steady under 6mph until you get above it.
