soiling

yep. it's a stupid powerful build but also surprisingly flexible.

I'll second this. I'd love to see posts about the green spaces you run through, but for a discussion more focused on the running itself, that would be better suited elsewhere.

accelerating because someone is tailgating you is not safe. the only safe response is to get away from them by changing lanes or pulling off the road. if it's impossible to move out of their way, gradually slow down. the faster you're both moving, the harder it is to avoid a crash and the worse a crash will be.

crypto got a bad name for a few reasons, but scams are a big one. the thing is, there's scams in everything. the scams and the NFTs grifts and the flavor-of-the-month coins don't reflect on the fundamental technology or the value of the bigger coins.

I think there are still very valid criticisms of cryptocurrency even at its best. I think we're not ready for it, technologicallly, because we aren't responsible enough with our energy production to base money directly off of it, but it makes sense to me that money could/should ultimately be an account of energy production. (or it shouldn't exist, idk)

in my opinion it's almost as much of a scam to just blanket say all crypto is trash because of scams, as it is to, well, have crypto scams. blockchain can't/shouldn't be everything people hype it up to be, but that doesn't mean it's just garbage technology.

"hallucination" works because everything an LLM outputs is equally true from its perspective. trying to change the word "hallucination" seems to usually lead to the implication that LLMs are lying which is not possible. they don't currently have the capacity to lie because they don't have intent and they don't have a theory of mind.

I don't agree. I think it's disingenuous to isolate the decision from the context as if it were made unprompted. it comes across as if you are blaming the admins for something you don't like - if that's not your intent, then what is ?

it may seem that way, but that's not accurate. something had to be done to stem the trolls and lemmy doesn't provide any tools for less severe action.

native flowers are a great idea! I'm lazy and mostly grow "decorative" plants - but even though they don't feed me, they're habitat for creatures I love

I'm not an expert, but tomatoes can get blight easily and require a ton of sun and water to produce fruit (but they also need great drainage!)

tomatoes are pretty fickle, so you may have an easier time with something else, but generally it is doable. if possible, look for varietals bred for container-growing, as they'll often be smaller plants. I've never grown peas or beans myself but I bet green beans and various peppers would be good choices.

of course, familiarize yourself with your environment. determine your plant hardiness zone: https://www.fs.usda.gov/wildflowers/Native_Plant_Materials/Native_Gardening/hardinesszones.shtml and growing seasons. as others said, the direction your deck faces is important, but since you're in an apartment, you may actually have an advantage of being able to utilize reflected light from the building facing you as well. (I used to have a north-facing deck and the brick wall opposite me was a major source of light for my plants, which would sometimes reach toward it)
