I like knitting, math, and uplifting the proletariat.

Why are people afraid of house centipedes? They already ARE cute! It’d be one thing if they were at least somewhat willing to bite you, like some spiders, but they won’t. They’ve got the best eyesight of any centipede, which inadvertently gives them really cute little eyes too.

Did you just call Pennsylvania the Midwest? Did I just this minute find out, right now, from you, dear internet stranger… that I’ve spent my entire life in the Midwest?? I’m sorry, I’m gonna need a minute… I’m gonna go get a hoagie

Are these vesca or virginiana? I’ve only had vesca which is definitely super delicious, way better than any store strawberry lol

I bet, they look tasty!

Yeah, but not out at the time, and I caught this one. Is there some mechanic where you encounter whatever Pokemon is set as your buddy?

Ohhhhh omg! I had no idea, thank you!

Tumblr! I only joined shortly before all the wildly terrible business decisions killed it lol. Great memes from there would get cross-posted to my various platforms often enough for me to want to go, but I procrastinated until it was almosssttt too late…

Now we got a fediverse version though 😈

Super super tasty, 10/10, would recommend! Starburst is pretty accurate. Also a lot of people debate over whether the seeds will actually hurt you or not, but plenty of people have eaten them and been fine. That’s up to your level of risk aversion. I try to keep the seeds for planting even though they’re rarely viable.

While there are plenty where I live, most natural areas here are so ridiculously overrun with invasives that I try to leave the native stuff alone. Plus the squirrels always beat you to the ripe Mayapples anyway lol. They’re very easy to grow from root though, so I just get mine from the garden.

I use it fairly frequently and enjoy it! My instance is Pxlmo but it hardly matters, federation doing its thing and all. The official app is quite buggy atm, but not unusably so, and it’s fun to watch the updates slowly improve things. I do follow a lot of people who are actually on mastodon but only ones who mostly post pictures anyway, so they fit better in my pixelfed feed.

EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention! I also kinda use it as image hosting for other apps! Only for pictures worth posting though, not trying to clutter it up. All my picture posts on Lemmy are stored there. If you put the direct link to the pic in the Lemmy image field, it shows up just as if you’d uploaded it directly to the post, no click-through necessary.

Interesting, maybe it didn’t used to work! It does have to be the direct link to the image, if that helps. Like, “right click on image, open in new tab”, then use that link? The link to the post itself doesn’t do it.

If you’ve tried it, does this taste any better than red dead nettle? That stuff is like… pungent. And… oddly textured lol

I would really like to mess around with self-hosting someday, but I live in a residential area and those sort of shenanigans are explicitly banned by my ISP. Is there anything someone in that position can do?

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

I was afraid that might be the case… Definitely pretty messed up, but with the state of ISPs around here it’s not surprising either. This guide is super awesome though, I’ll use it if I ever get a chance to!

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

I’ve heard of options to get around the lack of static IP, but will something like this also keep my ISP off my back about hosting? If so I’m onboard!

MxRemy,
@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

That’s what I’ve been wondering, like can I just do it anyway? I have Verizon FiOS gigabit, for reference. If they really just don’t care then I don’t mind violating TOS at all, but I wasn’t sure if they do or not

Pennsylvania, U.S.A. I hear it’s a fairly common policy here but does vary from provider to provider. As I understand it, most areas in the U.S. have at most 2 ISP companies to choose from, and many only have 1. So they can kinda set whatever BS policies they want.

I voted for him when he ran against Fetterman for the Senate previously, but unfortunately in this race he didn’t seem to be the most progressive option. His opponent this time around (Pinsley) has attended pro-Palestinian rallies and stuff, Kenyatta seemed shakey on that. Among other things. It really sucks when the most marginalized candidate and the most progressive candidate are not the same person… Still, this is historic and important and an improvement regardless.

I’d love to hear a more thorough and accurate assessment of this race, if anyone’s got one! All I’ve got is an impression from some bare minimum googling.

Very excited to see how many actually do!

This time of year, there’s a zillion of these loudly and clumsily zooming around right outside my backdoor. They’re very curious about everything that moves; they’ll just like stare you down, hovering a foot in front of your face. Too cute!! They are also kinda eating the landlords mudroom… but so slowly that I’m...

@MxRemy@lemmy.one avatar

I wonder that too! What’s so interesting? Seems like most critters this size don’t ever really look at you this way
