Exactly what I was thinking. If I saw this I would look for hinges before stepping up.

Even worse, he is headed up. Why is he looking down?

I would do it from the top (flat) with a guide. I would probably start with a circular saw, go until the front bumps the wall and finish the last parts with another tool. This allows the front and top to look straight which is all you'll see

Nope, I had the same experience. I don't know how many tutorials for set up of docker and jellyfin via docker that I read/watched and tried. Eventually I found one that worked, but I am still in that steep part of the curve after having successfully set up a few containers. That said, it has worked flawlessly since install, so...

I'm not from Austrailia, but the general rule for pruning is that up to 30% of the crown is ok, so I wouldn't worry at all about 10%.

This might already be your plan, but the best branches to prune are the ones with the most leverage. Those are the tallest and longest ones. The least effective will be the shortest, lowest, and closest to the trunk.

Unnecessary info: Trees need leaves to make food, but leaves use water and other soil nutrients. Trees need roots to gather water and other soil nutrients, but roots don't make food. The balance in pruning is between these two things. Cutting off branches in the hot and dry will probably actually help the plant survive because you are reducing water demand during a time when food is plentiful. The trick is to not overdo it and starve the roots. That's where that 30% idea comes from. Almost every plant will tolerate that amout of cutback without taking root damage.

Yes, there are vegan versions or replacements, and there are plenty of people (cooks) who won't even register that a sauce might not be vegan and use them. Source: personal experience. If this isn't a problem around you, I am happy you don't have to scrutinized menus like that.

Off the top of my head - fish sauce, oyster sauce, and red coloring in other sauces

I was on a crew for a while that worked 8 (10hr) days on, 6 days off. I would choose that again in a heartbeat if I could. 2 day weekends barely give me time to get out of the work mindset

You're adding extra layers by using an app, even the official one. You might want to try accessing through a browser. The app refused to connect for a while because of https settings.

You can cut cheese with a wire. Imagine having a thin piece of metal through a hole in your ear with weight on it. Your lobe is the cheese the ear ring is the cutter.

Ah, that makes sense

 

I have been running lineageOS on my OnePlus 2. I liked it, but Lineage has stopped supporting my phone. There are two options that I have been able to find as replacements - postmarketOS and /e/OS. Any thoughts on those or other recommendation? Anything that gets security updates, is open source, and is functional meets my needs.

 

Here is a video demonstrating how to make inari (tofu pouches filled with rice). Sushi purists might take issue with some of his technique, but they probably don't need to watch this anyways :)

Yumm sauce (lemmy.ml)
submitted 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) by Slatlun@lemmy.ml to c/veganrecipes@lemmy.ml
 

This is a copycat recipe from a restaurant. They serve it on top of rice, beans, olives, cilantro, and green onions. We put it on anything that needs a little something extra and change up the spices to match. It is supposed to be thick like a cheese sauce, but it tastes like its own thing. Anyways:

Materials

1/2 cup Canola Oil

1/2 cup Almonds toasted

1/2 cup Chickpeas cooked and drained

1/2 cup Water

1/2 cup Freshly squeezed Juice of 1 Lemon

1/3 cup Nutritional Yeast Flakes

2 cloves Garlic crushed

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Curry Powder

1/4 cup Cilantro chopped

Instructions

Place oil, almonds, chickpeas and water into a food processor or blender. Process until smooth.

Add remaining ingredients. Process again until smooth.

Store, covered (not too tightly, at first, the yeast may need to expand), in the refrigerator, until ready to use.

The large flowered collomia (Collomia grandiflora) is just starting to bloom around me. They are annual and have cool blue pollen (typically pollen is yellow). You can see the pollen on the anthers at the center of each flower.

I am going to keep tossing these out into the ether unless I hear differently from the group. I have been doing flowers just because their showy, but if anyone has requests let me know (eg trees, sedges, garden plants). Also, I have been avoiding having pollinators in the photos on the assumption that any animal makes most people ignore plant. Any thoughts on that?

 

Does it make sense to ask: How hard does a photon hit an object?

Does the waviness of photons make that a dumb question? If it does then what is a more correct way of conceptualizing the interaction of a photon with, for example, a light receptor? Or does the analogy in my head of a ball hitting a wall fairly represent the behavior of a photon at the moment of impact?

This one is meadow-foam (Limnanthes douglasii). It's annual that is native to prairies of the west coast of North America. Smells great, looks cool, and bugs like it. Comercially, similar plants are grown for the oil from their seeds. The seeds off this one will just fall where they want to sprout up in spring of '22.

 

For me it is my phacelia (Phacelia tanacetifolia) blooming. I throw some seed down wherever I don't have other plans because the bugs love the flowers? What have you got going?
