Monaco should become its own event. Not F1, but something specific to the circuit. Allow F1 to race on tracks that are worthwhile and the drivers are still able to race in the novelty event if they want. That's the major change I'm interested in. A sponsor change is so un-noteworthy that I almost deleted this comment in apathy.

I wanted to say I really enjoy your art and how prolific you are.

I think he will see how the car is after the next era of cars (next year?), if it's a tractor I could see him leaving F1 for something else.

I love this so much

Can they go 12 months without issuing one of these apology posts to the community? I'm sure they have a template for them, because they all read the same.

Here is a long section acknowledging what we did wrong and stating your concerns in a way that shows we listen.

Here is the reason for the mistake. We've learned from this.

Closing message about the great community.

It's cool that fally riots actually work though. At least Jagex is responsive and incompetent instead of just incompetent.

I think these are difficult to stop brown tips, but overall very easy to grow. My experience is similar to yours, they grow fast but will get brown tips if you go a bit wrong. I really like them, and you have some great plants here 👍

Without the funding, Thames Water will run out of money in March, which could force the government to temporarily nationalize the company.

Oh no! Won't someone please think of the investors?

Company executives say the fault lies with regulators who kept bills too low for too long, starving the company of the cash it needed to fund improvements.

If you haven't got money for improvements, stop diverting the money you did have into your own pockets. 17 billion in debt?! Fuck you.

Indoctrinated is precisely the word I use to describe my pro military upbringing. Many people join young, realise what's up and leave after minimum terms. I have no shame in saying I was basically brainwashed when I was younger.

Something about eggs in one basket.

This is fucked up. The president doesn't cause everything bad that happens in their term. And why are you wishing for more deaths?

Can't wait for this to happen to humans. Also the creepy transition period when it happens to pets and livestock.

I have a load of filters set up on my feed, notably I don't want to see Trump or Elon.

Due to recent events, so much content is coming through that it is as if I don't have filters at all.

If the text or title doesn't include the key words, it can't be filtered. All the screenshots or posts with jokes or bad titles can't be filtered.

I think the only way proper filters could be achieved is with a separate 'tags' field that could be added to or voted on by community members.

This might all seem like a lot of effort, but feed filters are such a good feature that I think it would be worth it.

I don't want unreasonable perfection for the filters, but the system seems too flawed at the moment.

I have no idea where this kind of discussion or decision would be made so I'm just throwing it out as a question here.

There are lots of issues I have with them in terms of privacy, but I'm going to be very specific in asking about a certain situation and would prefer to stay on that topic if possible.

I have seen someone showing AI glasses which allow the wearer to cheat at chess. The glasses provide the wearer with computer engine moves, essentially making them unbeatable against even the strongest grand masters.

How can someone prevent this from happening, for example in a tournament match?

I don't consider this as being an issue at the highest level of professional play, but for club and casual players they might not have the resources to deal with this.

Currently the camera and/or screen information might be fairly obvious just by looking, but assuming technology improves this could become harder to detect.

Retrospectively, it would be easy to spot a cheater and correct results, however this still spoils things by having the cheating in the first place.

It isn't realistic to ask people to play without glasses, and I'm not aware of any way to stop cameras or ai from functioning.

So what can be done, if anything?

Monstera Help 🥺 (lemmy.world)

I just noticed this, what should I do? Sorry for the vague question but I can't find any good articles on what this is.

Everything I find starts the same way "top 8 reasons for brown leaves". Then says too much water, not enough water, too much light not enough light too much fertilizer not enough, wrong kind of fertilizer and so on and so on. That isn't helpful! Do I just have to guess? Why is all plant knowledge basically voodoo?

I'm tempted to take a cutting so I have a spare to try again if it all goes wrong, but the plant only has 5 leaves, so I'm stressing out.

Hello From A New Chicken Keeper (self.backyardchickens)
 

First I want to say hello, I have only 3 lovely chickens to start off with as I learn the ropes.

Secondly, my neighbours son is absolutely obsessed with the chickens. It's really nice, but he is also feeding them huge amounts of wild bird seed and I'm a little worried. There are mounds of the stuff being poured over the fence!

I have spoken to his parents nicely and asked them to stop him doing so, which they understand.

In case this doesn't get resolved quickly, is there any danger that this can cause harm to my chickens?

Any idea what this is? Many leaves are dying on the plant, wondering if there is a way to save it. I have forgotten the name of the plant, but will update when I find it.

Edit Ctenanthe Lubbersiana - thanks @squeezeyerbawdy

 

I have a dreamcatcher which I thought had a dying leaf or something, but it looks like this could be something like seeds!? There is a second pod which isn't open to the left in the picture.

I don't really know what it is but I'm excited about it. My other aglaonema hasn't grown at all in 2 years!

Anyone tuning in at all on the off weekend for F1? It's nice to see some familiar faces in the teams.

Blue Steel Convert (self.castiron)

I bought a set of three carbon steel pans, and they are amazing. Is this allowed here? They are 99% iron I think.

They are lighter than a full iron pan but you still season them in the same way.

I have had an iron pan dedicated to meat cooking for a few years now, but I'm not sure it will get much use now.

These are new pans, so I'll have to see how they last, but I'm very optimistic.

Fast food should be expensive. (self.unpopularopinion)
submitted 8 months ago by Luvs2Spuj to c/unpopularopinion
 

I get that until recently it was considered normal and relatively cheap, but you are literally paying someone else to make food for you.

It can't be sustainable without exploitation of workers and/or animal welfare to have that available to the majority of people on a regular basis.

If you can only afford fast food as a luxury, to me that seems like a good thing.

 

As a non USA resident, I didn't know who this was. Before I read the post that was the name I had in my head.

 

Sorry for the poor quality / lack of screenshot, this is from my work computer which I isolate from my personal devices, so I just took a picture.

I heard on the Sunday broadcast for the San Marino GP that it isn't confirmed yet if the India GP will go ahead.

The riders still need to test the circuit and give a verdict.

I think that's insane. Just wondering if anyone else knows any more about this?
