No they cause problems when indoors. We need them touching grass.

Should have used display port instead of HDMI because from certain angles you only really see the rectangular side. Not that I ever tried to plug a USB thing into mine.
- Comment on Banana 2 weeks ago:
Have you tried fresh banana picked a minute ago?
No, but if climate change keeps accelerating, I might be able to eat a home grown banana. Unless the gulf stream breaks of first, in which case I can heard reindeer.
Both are horrifying to think about. - Comment on Smells Great 2 weeks ago:
It could also be scaled (THz) or when working with light given as a wavelength (nm) and sometimes even photon energy (eV).

There is a reptile cannel on YouTube (think it’s called clint’s reptiles), that does annual skeleton reviews for halloween. The worst I can remember are where snail and octopus.

Moskitos live anywhere there is stale water, so either clean it or have it wild enough that other insects outcompet them.
Put your compost pile somewhere you don’t walk past a lot, because that’s where flies congregate.
Ticks aren’t that mobile, they need some animal to carries them there. - Comment on In this essay... 5 weeks ago:
While it was probably not the best use of our time, it certainly made me think about relations and algebra in more interesting ways than the last uni course did.
- Comment on In this essay... 5 weeks ago:
But I am not taking about an amount of different things, but a parallel or branching number line being part of the set of natural numbers.
I am not talking about modular arithmetic on its own, but as part of the set of natural numbers.Under the missing axioms those constructs would be part of the natural numbers, including an
xin N such thats(x)=xand thereforex+1=x. While some might think this implies0=1, it doesn’t, because we don’t have the axiom of induction, an thus can’t provea+c=b+c => a=b.The usefulness of such a system questionable but it certainly doesn’t describe the natural numbers as we understand them.
- Comment on IT'S A TRAP 5 weeks ago:
There are also an infinite number of rationale between two integers, but the rationals are still countable and therefore have the same cardinality as the naturals and integers.
- Comment on In this essay... 5 weeks ago:
I know how how natural numbers work, but the axioms in the comment i replied to are not enough to define them.
Not sure what you mean by ‘loops’
There could be a number n such that
m=s(n)andn=s(m). This would be precluded by taking the axiom of induction or the trichotomy axiom.If we only take the latter we can still make a second number line, that runs “parallel” to the “propper number line” like:
n,s(n),s(s(n)),s(s(s(n))),... 0,s(0),s(s(0)),s(s(s(0))),...
there are no natural numbers that are negative
I know, but the given axioms don’t preclude it. Under the peano axioms it’s explicitly spelled out:
0 is not the successor of any natural number - Comment on In this essay... 5 weeks ago:
That axiomisation is incomplete as it doesn’t preclude stuff like loops, a predecessor to zero or a second number line.
- Comment on Why does information want to be free 5 weeks ago:
Hoarding information is like hoarding any other resources.
Information is unlike any other resource, it can be shared without taking away from the giver.
Hording it is not about protection what you have, it’s about intentionally depriving others with no benefit to your self other than keeping up a power imbalance. - Comment on Can you think of any now? 1 month ago:
He wanted to show that AC lines with their heigh voltages are dangerous, as he sold low voltage DC power.

I know, but otherwise there is no use for the knowledge that we live in a simulation. Unless someone can contact the outside of course.
- Comment on IF YOU TAKE ENOUGH YOU CAN SEE *THE PATTERN* BRO 1 month ago:
The only thing one could do with knowledge of being in a simulation, is trying to find bugs and exploits.
From now on, I expect anyone claiming we live in a simulation to have a working perpetual motion device, faster that light communication, or something similarly impressive. If they don’t, their claim is meaningless. - Comment on The McDonald's employee who called on Luigi has never received their "reward", folks chasing the 100k for Kirk may not either... 1 month ago:
I’m sorry I don’t know all the arcane incantations of your court system of the top of my head.

What would the defense say? “That wasn’t him, just someone who looks similar.”
They already claim that by pleading innocent at the start. - Comment on The Nutty Putty Cave System 1 month ago:
Should have gone with the rising star cave, with the homo naledi fossil location.
- Comment on There's an FPGA handheld that looks perfect for playing GBA, but it's still in the crowdfunding phase 1 month ago:
A computer/microcontroller can read physical cards just as well and if the specs of the hardware are well known enough for someone to write vhdl/verilog, they can also write c/rust.
If someone offered you a molecularly identical beer, would you complain that it’s not the original. - Comment on There's an FPGA handheld that looks perfect for playing GBA, but it's still in the crowdfunding phase 1 month ago:
If the outcome is the exact same, who cares?
This is like golden audio cables but for retro gamers. - Comment on There's an FPGA handheld that looks perfect for playing GBA, but it's still in the crowdfunding phase 1 month ago:
Why use a FPGA? For the price of the chip (113€) you could get an entire SBC that has more storage, voltage regulation and protection, 3.3V or 5V IO and linux.

If an animal gets shot with lead, survives and runs away, there is now a wounded animal or an animal carcass containing lead somewhere in the wild.
If it is wounded or freshly dead a carnivore will eat it and accumulate lead. That may be large carnivore or a smaller carnivore that later gets eaten by a bigger one. Birds tend to have stronger stomach acid that most mammals, allowing them to dissolve the lead better.
Vultures having it the worst as they will eat any carcass and have the strongest acid. - Comment on Who is the enemy? 2 months ago:

Yes, for mild winters and plentiful harvests
Bastards, we need harsher winters over here. Otherwise the moskitos and invasive species get even more numerous.
