  • 1/3rd of our backyard is native plants, and other 2/3rd is concrete. We have a table in the back that we normally like to hang during the day instead of staying inside. Sometimes reading, playing games on laptops, chatting, eating, etc.

    We decided to let our backyard grow wild for a few months. Now we keep getting a lot of ten-lined June beetles, moths (lots of morning-glory plume moths), bees, blister beetles, lacewings, katydid, stink bugs, earwigs, among other bugs.

    Never seen a ten lined June beetle until we did this. Their hissing freaked me out the 1st time I saw them. And their grips are so strong when trying to get them off our backyard curtain that we use to block the sun. They are pretty cool looking though, and huge!

    We haven’t sat outside really in a couple months now because it isn’t that enjoyable when there are so many bugs around you, sometimes crawling on you, and sometimes ending up in my teacup or on my food plate. We’re probably going to cut it back again and maintain it more so that we can actually use our backyard again



  • I personally do not like any sugar in my coffee unless at a Viennese coffee house. I have a lot of amazing coffee roasters in the area.

    I still find McDonald’s coffee to be good for the price. Well, as long as there is a bit of creamer in it. I don’t ever eat at McDonald’s, I only go there for coffee if I need something quick and cheap that is better than gas station / 7-Eleven / Starbucks coffee.

    I don’t use creamer/milk in any actual good coffee. I prefer my coffee black to actually taste it, and normally it’s already sweet without anything added. And don’t like drip coffee usually.

    And on that note, I condemn in the harshest terms the response from communities like /r/linux on the subject. The vile harassment and hate directed at the FDO officer in question is obscene and completely unjustifiable. I don’t care what window manager or desktop environment you use – this kind of behavior is completely uncalled for. I expect better.

    Oh wow. That community is just hateful

    It lets you have all of your emails offline as well. If you have to reference an older email, it’s faster than loading the webpage again.

    Some desktop email clients lets you manage your emails, contacts, tasks, and calendars all in one program, which loads immediately instead of loading multiple web pages. This is why I love Evolution and Thunderbird.

    If you have multiple email accounts, it’s easier to use an email client, rather than having to log into multiple websites.

    The search function in some web interfaces suck.

    Some people just don’t like their email provider’s web interface.
