Just got this after reluctantly going to reddit for some info. Got around it by using old reddit

Drought. When you live in the bush and only have tank water for everything, drinking water comes before showering/bathing. When things are bad, shower once per week and use a bowl of water and wash cloth to freshen up the rest of the time. Still end up with a smell though. You can smell the drought on the people in a rural areas when you go into town.

They do that here in Australia too (probably better than the USA) but there are way more people seeking placement in aged care homes than there are beds available. Waiting times are in the years and so people end up on the street. Especially with the way rent and cost of living is these days. Government pension doesn't pay enough to rent anywhere.

This site has a good comparison: https://privacytests.org/

True for most unless you have a mango tree growing in your yard. Then you have more mangos than you know what to do with. Kangaroos, cattle and horses like eating them though.

Lots of people here suggesting soups, mashes etc. but another way to go here could be drying with a dehydrator.

You can make healthy chips by slicing up, drying and seasoning vegetables. Carrots, beetroot, most root veg really, green beans etc. Mix some chicken stock powder with salt for chicken flavoured chips. Salt and some balsamic vinegar. Experiment with different spices and seasonings. Onion/garlic powders, paprika.

Same with meat. Maybe try making some type of jerky to help with protein.

Just don't go overboard with the salt.

Looks interesting. I'll check it out.

How easily/quickly are plants identified on it? Leafsnap usually only takes a minute or so and has id'ed around 90% of what I've thrown at it.

But I do like the idea of tracking more than just plants and contributing to data gathering for science.

Edit: yep iNaturalist is much better. The search is about the same but its prioritizing results based on location is a good feature.

Leafsnap - an excellent plant identification app. Can id from a photo of a flower, leaf or bark.

I love it! There are so many users who could benefit from this: children, elderly, people with disabilities, prison/hospital/hotel settings.

Wow. American police really are just an execution and cleanup crew. Just have a chat and compliment someone who is accused of being a danger on their weapons, ignore the victim begging them to stay and help, and then blame the victim and lie.
