vladmech,

This may not be the community for you 😂

vladmech,

Aww man, you didn’t have to shit on the community on your way out the door; it could have been such a graceful see-ya. 😕

vladmech,

The Switch has sold over 140 million units, the third highest selling console of all time, and unlike most every other one out there was turning a profit on every unit instead of being a loss leader. Why would Nintendo think about going software only with those kind of numbers in their pocket?

vladmech,

That’s super fair and a trend I could agree with. I’m tentatively optimistic from rumors that the Switch 2 will be fully backward compatible and have a shared virtual store, which has been such a sore spot for me compared to how Xbox runs it. Fingers crossed for more competition though!

Edit: also, thank you for the detailed response, I appreciated it!

I was awarded my 3 gallon award today for blood donations. (lemmy.world)

I am truly honored. I hope every blood donation I gave was able to help save a life. I always wonder about how the recipients are doing, and what circumstances led them to need a life saving blood transfusion. The blood bank keeps all of that private for security reasons, of course, along with the name of the donors who donate....

vladmech,

Just a pin for 1-4 gallons, and then random shirts and windbreakers here and there!

vladmech,

Oh man that’s rad! I got a little pin….
Which obvi not why I do it, but yours is way cooler haha

vladmech,

Are they? I got a 3% ‘raise’ again this year and that doesn’t seem like it’s keeping up with inflation. And yes yes get a different job, blah blah.

vladmech,

Hey this is great, and exactly the kind of vibe I’m looking for while reading fantasy novels, thanks for the rec!

vladmech,

Whelp, this decided my evening plans for me!

vladmech,

We had a 3 and even though Musk was already an asshole idiot, we ended up swapping it out for a Y instead of another EV because the network is leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else. If they screw this up + keep opening it up to other manufacturers (which they should, that’s a good thing) I don’t see anyone our next cars being a Tesla.

vladmech,

That seems less like being an extrovert and more like being an asshole :/

vladmech,

I’ll be happy if I can get three cobs on my first year haha

vladmech,

Our house is pretty windy but it runs perpendicular to that fence behind the corn, so I’m really hoping that acts as enough of a wind break! If not then maybe next year I take over more of the front yard haha

vladmech,

I’m going to set up a second 4’x4’ next to this one and that hopefully helps, but yeah sounds like I’ll need to help my plants make out

vladmech,

Double Standard hybrid sweet corn! Supposed to be tasty and have a nice yellow and white mix of kernels. And I’m in the 9b zone it looks like now (just changed last year I believe)

vladmech,

Oh hmm, the insert said 8-12" inches apart and with the 4x3 setup it should be 8" for the columns and 12" for the rows. I’ll have to see how these go and can always adjust for next year!

vladmech,

I’ll have to read up on that! Do you just kind of coat the tassels with it?

vladmech,

Awesome, thank you for that tip! Would be a huge bummer to make it so far only to find out worms feasted and not me

vladmech,

So I have 18 seedlings right now and was going to get another six, so I could have 12 in each mini-plot. Do you think it would be better to move the first plot around a bit and have two sets of 3x3?

How repair-friendly is the R1S?

I’ve been debating if I should get R1S or the new Bronco and repairability will be a factor for my purchase. I’m pretty sure many of you have seen the $47,000 fender repair bill story but I as far as I can tell that is an extreme case. Not to mention anecdotal. However, Rivian is still a relatively new startup and (from what...

vladmech,

Anecdotal but my BIL got a R1S and it makes a weird noise while doing 50-55 and the soonest Rivian can take a look is in June.

25 donations and more to go!

I have made it to 25 donations of donated whole blood so far. I was told last week that I qualify for the 3 gallon award! That’s not why I donate, but I’m really excited to have such an honor bestowed upon me. During my last donation, they actually told me which hospital they would be sending my blood, since it was going to...

vladmech,

Hell yeah, that’s awesome! Donating blood’s one of those things not nearly enough people do consistently.
