Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•USUAL in your country but NOT anywhere else.English
3·1 month agoNot much point in running from it, you’re already getting wet if you’re caught out in it 🤷♀️. I’ll run if I hear thunder though, don’t want to get electrocuted.
The lithops? I like them! I have a couple that are mostly green but they’re pretty low maintenance
Cute!

Houseplants@mander.xyz•Okay Polkira, I finally put them in their vases so here you goEnglish
5·1 month agoYay! They’re so pretty! A frydek is definitely on my list
Also you guys need to start posting more! It’s starting to feel like a one woman show around here lol
I find if I don’t make my soil super chunky then it stays damp for way too long. My house is pretty humid usually so I mostly go with 1:1:1 orchid bark, perlite, and potting soil. So far all of my plants have grown well in it, though I did have a lemon button fern that loved straight soil and staying damp. I miss that little guy… Stupid thrips.

Coffee@lemmy.world•For medical reasons I can only have decaf. Still try to make time for a good cup (of decaf) after dinner.English
2·1 month agoI’m more of a tea drinker, but my spouse really likes the decaf beans from Saltwinds Coffee Company. They’re a Canadian east coast company. https://www.saltwindscoffee.com/product/decaf-ocean-fresh/?v=34f67f9dfb46
That and Kirkland decaf are his go-to’s. Like OP, he also can’t have a lot of caffeine anymore.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?English
2·2 months agoSide eye my growing plant collection … yes.
You could try a cat friendly plant and hang it out of reach? Not sure how acrobatic your cat is though, I’m lucky mine leaves the plants alone. Though I think I’ve overwhelmed her with the quantity and so she’s not very interested lol
Lol the wall is actually more dusky in person (like a muddy rust), my camera makes it look bright orange so I look like a crazy person.
Care regime lately has just been to water when dry (so like every 7-14 days) and fertilize rarely (mostly because I forget). It actually doesn’t live where it is in the picture but hangs out right in my east facing sliding door so it gets lots of morning light. I keep it and most of my plants in a chunky mix (1 part orchid bark, 1 part perlite, 1 part potting soil), otherwise they take forever to dry out with the humidity here.
It probably would be a lot bigger if I hadn’t swapped everything to semi hydro last year to try and be rid of fungus gnats (a strategy which actually did work, but I’m a lazy plant parent so they didn’t really thrive in that). It lived in water for quite a while re-rooting so it was just a sad and dying leaf a couple months ago. It’s made a huge comeback this summer, with another leaf on the way.

Automotive Industry@discuss.tchncs.de•Hyundai wants Ioniq 5 customers to pay for cybersecurity patch in baffling moveEnglish
31·2 months agoI’m going to be in the market for an electric car in the next year or two… I was considering an Ioniq as an option but now I’m not so sure. I’m having trouble finding any EV that doesn’t have a massive monitor in place of buttons, doesn’t have some kind of subscription, and isn’t a privacy nightmare. Not sure what I’ll do when the time comes to actually buy…

1·2 months agoI’m thinking the comment loading issue is more of a federation issue than a Boost one. I can’t even see my own comment on this post.
The scrolling issue I’ve experienced before moving to PieFed, though I think that has something to do with my server and Boost being on different versions. It usually resolved itself once my server’s version got updated.
At least it’s not just me.

Canada@lemmy.ca•The liberal just force the Flight Attendants to go back to workEnglish
341·2 months agoHonestly because of his leadership, my future votes will be going towards NDP or Greens. The Liberals have lost my vote forever. I voted Liberal to avoid a Conservative government and I feel like I ended up with one anyways.

Anime@ani.social•Clevatess • Clevatess: Majuu no Ou to Akago to Kabane no Yuusha - Episode 6 discussionEnglish
1·3 months agoI don’t expect it to last long on Clevatess, but I think he’s probably an important part of the plot. I don’t think he’ll live forever but I would’ve been surprised if they immediately killed him off.
I wish our government would regulate this shit. Airlines shouldn’t be able to nickle and dime like this. Prices just keep going up 😒
