Careful, that looks like Siberian Squill, somewhat toxic to animals and fairly invasive.

zifkto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•My local hardware store has recently changed the colour of the plating on their screws from zinc to something more golden16·4 months agoFor the longest time I thought pressure-treated wood meant it was treated with pressure. Only just crossed my mind that it means they use pressure to get the treatment chemicals further in the wood.

Yeah if you’re exposed to cold weather then ski goggles tend to handle not fogging up with a scarf/mask better. You can get some pairs with clear, swapable lenses for biking at night.
I frequently wear safety glasses, you can get some that can be worn on top of a pair of glasses but still provided wrap around protection like:
I can’t explain why but I find this really house of leaves coded
zifkto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Grapes double sensor magnetic power in an epic quantum breakthroughEnglish1201·5 months agoLmao yes technically correct. The grapes aren’t doing anything new, they’re acting as a microwave resonator which makes some very interesting plasma physics you can do with a grape in the microwave. However, this is not a new phenomenon and there are much more convenient microwave resonators you can build out of metal.
Enjoy your stable systems while you can! Learning comes through solving problems as they come up. It’s a good sign if you don’t have to.
Need some new functionality? Figure out how to set it up. Encounter a bug or issue? Troubleshoot and fix it. Functionality that you want doesn’t exist? Time to program it yourself.
You can also start customizing (ricing) your system as you wish. Take a look at unixporn style communities for inspiration and advice.

I can’t say I’m ever particularly aware of my gender when I’m dreaming
Fun thing is that in Montreal, ‘North’ is refereed to as the direction where streets go away from the river, which ends up being the WNW, further from north than “East”.
maaaan I really wanted the Maryland flag to be official, but it was made by someone on /r/vexillology
I’ve got a print of this beauty framed, hanging on my wall.
As a visual learner I prefer the Finnster standard reference sample
English also has cases, we just don’t think of them much. It’s why pronouns are typically given as nominative/objective pairs: she/her, they/them, etc. So, similarly in German you’d probably only need to give one or two examples to make it clear which set to use. Or give all four.
zifkto Futurology@futurology.today•AI is starting to make independent discoveries in basic science, as shown by AI's recent discoveries in how insect wings work.English26·1 year agoNo part of this article involves AI making independent discoveries. The researchers used ML to map muscle contractions to wing motion.
It’s interesting, but a far stretch from what OP wrote for the title.
ah nice, ads disguised as memes
Awesome! Glad you’re aware. It’s slowly taking over my neighborhood and I have a young puppy who loves to chew now so I’ve been overly vigilant.
