These are what mine look like. The small holes are great for not disturbing the ones underneath. Basically you fill up the four layers with seeds, stack them and pour water into the top, when you go and water it next, you dump the catch tray, and rotate the bottom tier to the top.

As you rotate them, they each get time getting full “light”. The seeds also have surface tension, so they hold the proper amount of water around themselves.

You suggest that they show pre and post tax, than call someone dumb for asking how they would do so…? And saying it would be post tax only….?

Yeah you’re the textbook reason why this system would never work. You can’t even finish describing it without confusing yourself and resorting to insulting people.

I need to get back into it, but the sprout trays ive bought you don’t soak. You stack them on top of each other and pour a cup of water through a few times a day. The containers have a web design and it holds enough water in each of the trays.

Any seeds that fall out you can just throw back in when you do the next water. But, my holes are significantly smaller than yours even.

It prevents stores from charging whatever they want…

Do you just not care about thinking about this beyond just how inconvenienced you are by doing some rather simple mental math….?

So… how does a person know which one is for them…? Is the bold for me? For you? For the foreigner that’s exempt? Why are ther so many different price options? Sir! Can you tell me how much this item costs. Okay, now this one. Okay thanks for your time, there is a Lineup of people with the same question.

And what price would the weight price be? Pre tax or post tax? Or does it need to do each and now you have a dozen prices.

What a dumb idea. lol.

Didn’t McDonald’s do orange slices instead of apple in the happy meals for a bit?

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

In our stores that would make 4 different prices on the tag.

I’m sure you can understand why that’s not a great idea?

Okay, now add in multiple taxes, which one gets removed first so it squares up? You’re ignoring reality to make a simple example. I bought some clothing too, there’s no tax at all on that, so you can’t just remove it from the final sales price. Now it doesn’t square up. Whoops…. Maybe there’s a reason we don’t do that….?

Yes, minorities, they are exempt, natives specifially as well. You want to discriminate against minorities and natives? Just so you don’t need to do some simple mental math…?

Maybe the situation here is different which is why we are different…?

Shocker eh?

People who barely speak the language and you want to try and explain complex taxes and exemptions and why the price is different for them? They’re a foreigner, could even be a refugees. But fuck them…? When you should understand since you were taught? Please make it make sense lol.

All anyone around here hears is how selfish and lazy you want to be when the reason is “simpler for me”. Think of others, especially ones that would have their life’s significantly impacted by a selfish thing like this.

Just bring some ducttape and tape the beer to it.

I never said it wasn’t possible, but you just described the issue. So now people are thinking the tax is only 4.76% instead of 5? You’re adding layers of confusion. And what amount do I add to my tax reporting so I can recover that amount? You are saying I need to go through every receipt and remove 4.76% and input it, instead of just moving a number from the tax line over. Because the simple thing is to actually add it to the final cost, so it’s not confusing and than the listed price isn’t “false” since taxes are separate from the price of goods.

And removing 4.76 isn’t easy, you said they were the same. Can you acknowledge that’s pure bullshit atleast? You want to make everyone’s life far more difficult, just to avoid some mental math?

How does your taxes work with gst? No way to claim any and recover? How does that work without a listed price on the receipt?

Taxes were only ever supposed to be a temporary war thing, the way you’ve adopted it, makes that no longer the case. And ours has changed a few times over the years, so it’s not just as simple as you think it is.

Removing 5% of $105 isn’t the same as adding 5% to $100.

That’s not how math works.

Tips are voluntary, on the cost of the meal, not the added taxes. I’m not tipping taxes lol. It’s normally a percentage of the cost of a meal, to tip $10 for a $20 is fine, but to tip that same amount on a $200 bill would just be insulting.

And why would taxes be a surprise? You’re taught about them in school since they’re a part of your everyday life. It’s not hard to do some mental math and add percentages, the inverse is orders harder.

My wife is exempt from paying GST, so to include it in the pricing would make it incorrect. She would need to pay pst though if applicable.

Things are more nuanced than it seems.

Not everything has pst, gst and/or hst added to its price either. It’s also easier to enter into your taxes when it’s a number on your receipt instead of rolled into a single price.

I’m not tipping food with gst/pst included, so there’s plenty of situations where it being automatically included doesn’t make sense either.

 
 
 
 

I’m planning on grabbing some more Asimov books and grab most of Martha’s MurderBot series, as well as Hugo and Nebula collections.

Any other sci-fi type stuff you guys recommend? I’m not a huge fan of the more fantasy stuff, although I agree Star Wars falls into that catagory.

 

Had my second carpal tunnel release surgery last week, so I couldn’t resecure the fan correctly with only one hand.

And now, the strong Cree Cob white lights are burnt out, so now I’m left with just the supplemental wavelengths and some smaller white LEDs. The Cree ones are a LITTLE strong for vegetable starters anyways. But these aren’t enough for this stage either now.

 

An assortment of pepper and tomatoe varieties.

 
 
 

Most lived, some died. They got a little too dried out over the weekend so the smaller ones shriveled. Just forgot about them, kid had a dance comp and then my mother passed. So I’m just glad most actually survived.

Still got another month atleast before hardening, that will give the peppers about 8 weeks, they’re 4 weeks now.

 

Tents a little full, I’m expecting not every transplant to take.

For tomatoes I have:

Gusto Halia

Jubilee

Cherry Roma

Beefsteak

Black Krim

Yellow pear shape

Green zebra

Rainbow blend 

Get stuffed 

For peppers:

Red bell

Fat and sassy

jalepeno (early)

Sweetie snack mix

Hungarian hot wax

Habanero

Red habanero

Shishito

Sweet

Mini bell mix

Early sunsation

Golden California

Purple Beauty

 

Here’s a picture from 2 short weeks ago. Second trellis wasn’t even installed yet.

 

I could dig the strains and grows up, but let’s just stick with numbers for now. 2 of the batches which were stored and the bottom had some pretty bad freezer burn, they’re the greener pucks.

So after washing the cannabis a lightly press dried then immediately froze the hash in the screen. What you see here is after removing the from the screens to air dry.

On the left from the top is the collection of the third batch of collection from the 25 micron bag, under that is the second wash, then the first wash. In the right on top is the 73 micron bag, under that the second wash, then the first wash again.

Total weight is 90g but that’ll drop as it air dries.

Any Qs I’ll try to answer.

Edit, oh each batch was 350g of material, so about 2.5kg of fresh frozen cannabis for the material.
