If you don't post this to !coolguides@lemmy.ca I will
Go ahead!
If you are going to, post it on a Canadian instance, use the Canadian texture triangle
You can also post this pdf for a lot more information on how soil scientists (like myself) classify soils in Canada. The US has its own system, but a lot of the principles translate somewhat well (e.g., things they look at, like structure).
Finally, you can find more dirt-nerdery over at !soilscience@slrpnk.net
Done! Thank you. I tagged you but not sure if it pings you. People have some questions there I can't answer and your community link doesn't appear to work?
the link is !soilscience@slrpnk.net I'm unable to comment on the shit just works community for some reason.
some info:
the equilateral triangle (US) one is confusing as fuck, if you're uninformed. Basically, start with two lines, and see where they take you (e.g., 30% clay, 40% sand). The third line tells you what the remaining percentage of the 3rd textural size is (e.g., in this case, silt).
In the Right angle Triangle (Canadian one) sand and clay to derive your texture. silt is implied (e.g., solve for 'x').
gravel gets counted later, and classified as coarse fragments.
It's probably because the link takes you to the sh.itjust.works page where you're not signed in instead of opening from your local instance. Apps manage that well and there's userscripts if you're on desktop. What happens if you navigate to !coolguides@lemmy.ca manually?
Yeah, that was it. Thanks! I'm still figuring out how this crap works, despite my endless shitposting.
Chicago!!! (Shocked exclamation)
The IEEE one is hilarious.
I thought this was anarchychess for a moment.
Crab is also a pizza
Oxford is also too expensive.
Fucking everything listed is too expensive
You can still get an "OH NO" for free.
Question: How does one fuck Healthcare? I was under the impression by experience that it fucked you and not the other way around.
You fuck it by privatising it.

Adobe Software will never be not too expensive. 💸
FOSS my beloved
Where do you live so that vegetables are too expensive but other foods aren't?
Most food swamps, where only fast food is cheap.
