Good idea, you should sketch it up in paint and post it to NCD
- Comment on Help! Monstera leaves turn brown 1 day ago:
Just kidding, I’ve been informed by a friend that overwatering can indeed cause the leaves to brown!!
That’s a TC right? I’ve had mine for a little under a year with no brown spots and it sits less than a foot from the window. Fertilized every time I water (liquid drops) and I make sure it dries out completely before rewatering which was about once a week. I repotted it a few months ago so it’ll stay moist for 2 weeks now until the roots fill in.
I use a $20 moisture sensor stick thing and test 3/4 the way down the pot

It’s almost definitely not the problem here, I just wanted to share that info! A lot of people kill plants by overwatering
- Comment on Help! Monstera leaves turn brown 1 day ago:
You actually do want the soil to dry out with monstera. They grow on trees and are used to dry spells! I don’t think this is it but you may be watering it a day or two early
- Comment on Help! Monstera leaves turn brown 1 day ago:
You should always wait at least a week after bringing a plant home to repot. Let it get over the shock of moving before giving it a shock of repotting

I just bought Opus Magnum which is on sale right now so maybe nothing, haven’t had any games I’ve been eyeing except that
- Comment on I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in? 2 days ago:
For some additional geographic context: The United States is roughly the size of Europe. A little larger if you include Alaska, a little smaller if you don’t. The entirety of England is roughly the size of Illinois.

That’s sooo interesting how you’re using the Russian spelling of Kyiv

- Comment on Boxelder bugs are relentless lil critters 1 week ago:
Read the link you posted and look at the name of the bug. The page has both the scientific and common name. Now look up boxelders and see if it matches
- Comment on Boxelder bugs are relentless lil critters 1 week ago:
They aren’t. Boxelder is different than kissing bug
Weirdly I just learned all about boxelders the other day when one appeared on my desk. There’s a Reddit thread really similar to this one with people trying to explain that boxelders aren’t the same bug lol
- Comment on Boxelder bugs are relentless lil critters 1 week ago:
Not the same bug

Also helped by the fact that EA games just aren’t that good. Easiest boycott of my life
- Comment on Microsoft patents system for AI helpers to finish games for you 1 week ago:
That is kind of same thing. I don’t want the existence of AI solvers to influence how a puzzle is designed at all
- Comment on Microsoft patents system for AI helpers to finish games for you 1 week ago:
My biggest fear with this is an arms race between puzzle developers and these solvers. I hope devs never design their games with the expectation that players will use AI

- Comment on Sony PlayStation reportedly moving away from PC ports 2 weeks ago:
I was looking forward to Ghost of Yotei but I’m not paying $500 to play it, sorry.
Pretty soon, Xbox will move to Windows, the Steam Machine will have PC manufacturers making their own versions, Nintendo will continue to lead the kid-friendly market with their hybrid devices, and Sony will be the last company selling traditional consoles.

- Comment on Which game have you been most patient for? 3 weeks ago:
Same thing I came here to say.
I got the itch and played a campaign on 6 last week and was thinking about what 7 would need for me to buy it…and the answer is an expansion and a deep discount. The feature changed are kinda meh to me
Or maybe hearing that all the buggy stuff that bugs me about 6 is fixed.

- Comment on Widelands, the open source Settlers-like devs plan to ban all AI generated contributions 4 weeks ago:
I think you’re taking what I said too negatively toward the developers themselves I put the virtue signalling line in there to hopefully make that clear I wasn’t accusing them of anything. I was more commenting on what kind of news gets picked up by content farms.
I’ve learned about sooo many opensource projects because the devs made some anti-AI comment that got reported here
