  • What is the point of paying for the pipe if you don’t use everything you can?! There is no reason they shouldn’t push it through faster.

    This is the reason why I leave the shower running in every hotel I visit. And at the buffet, I tell the waiter to fetch me a trash can so I can actually get rid of the whole thing. If I can, I usually leave both a heater and an air conditioner running in the hallway.

    Edit: Wow. I had completely forgotten about this comment. I really didn’t think anyone would take it seriously. I work with networks. I know we’re not literally going to run out of internet. But everyone treats bandwidth as this freely available resource. Advertisers, consumers, creatives and Jürgen. Fuck you, Jürgen. We both know that downloading 6 fucking MB every time someone wants to queue up the database is fucking insane, as is your reliance on client-side bullshit.

    Anyway, whenever a anything loads slowly, think about why. Bandwith is not free. It’s a maintained resource.

    [] more than 60 Hz. Most phones on the market don’t even support it.

    Just checked. Most phones within the 400€ - 800€ price range support more than 60Hz.

    Of 591 devices, only 176 feature a ‘unknown’ or <90Hz refresh rate. 415 support >=90Hz, 382 support >=120Hz and 48 models go to >=144Hz. It has become a fairly common feature.

    it even has a tutor

    Yeah, people are just lazy. I remember when I invented a new login screen and was told it was “difficult”, “confusing” and “took some getting used to”.

    It even came with a free 100-page manual and a 4-hour master class. Some people, I tell you!

    ^This is meant more as a joke than an actual critique, even if it kind of reflects my thoughts. But ultimatly, I thought it was a funny bit.^

    Funnily enough, it’s my least troublesome plant.

    I got it as a impulse purchase. But the novelty only lasted a few weeks, so I pretty much dismissed it and put it in the bathroom to get more space for plants I liked better. But it endured for a entire year, thanklessly and without a single complaint. No pests, no fertilizer issues, no water problems, no rot or anything. And then it put put it’s first flowers aswell.

    This one really clawed it’s way back into my heart and I consider one of my favorite plants by now. It really earned it.

    It’s currently in my bathroom, which is clean but still not very sighty. And I’m currently trying to kinda trellis it as it has become quite unwieldy and I can’t really move it much without risking it.

    But I’m planning to relocate it after pruning next spring. As soon as the leaves have grown back, there will definitely be pictures! :D

    I had something similar with my monstera.

    Personally, I aim for the biggest leaves I can. So I air-layered it at the newest node, and when I was sure it had enough roots (so it wouldn’t get shocked), I replanted it with a plank.

    I really underestimated how much roots the plant needed, but it has since caught on, is throwing out nice new leaves and is climbing well.

    I also made a few single node cuttings that I will probably have to give away at some point.

    That seems to be it. Thank you!

    The plant and substrate are fine, though. It’s a chunky 5-1-1 mix with a bit of kelp meal to help with drought stress. I have no fungus gnats or standing water. The little teracotta is skewer dry after 3-4 days. ^^

    I’m actually pretty happy with the little 'shrooms showing up, as they indicate proper nutrient cycling.
