It looks like a philodendron of some kind, but the leaves also look like a bat plant.
I’d wager it’s an aroid of some kind

This is a ZZ plant, it does not want direct sunlight.
It will grow under artificial lights just fine, in fact throw it on your desk at the office without a window in sight and the fluorescent lights will do enough.
In your home if the ZZ plant can see a window it’s likely fine, however this one does appear slightly etoliated AND like it has some nutrient issues

Recycling the components for the metals and other bits in them is a good use though.
Selling computer equipment to rife with security concerns and compatibility issues isn’t charity

Your assessment of substrate compacting over time is a good one, one reason repotting is important!
For a per plant basis, if you can find a plant store nearby I bet the owner would love to tell you how (and show you products specifically designed) to care for your plants.
What kinds do you have? I’m happy to talk plants :)

They can’t. This article is … nonsense.

My bioluminescent petunias can breed with other petunias and I’ve been trying to get the glow gene across BUT I think it’s a twofer mutation so relatively hard to “breed in” natively.
My petunias are not sterile, the USDA didn’t require them to be either.
- Comment on Chinese Scientists Made Glowing Plants with Firefly DNA to Replace Streetlights 1 month ago:
I’ve been growing petunias bioengineered to bioluminesce for years, they were developed by a grad student and team in Idaho.
So. Did they do it in a new way?

- Comment on The Brits were a little preoccupied at the time 2 months ago:
The US won definitely … even if it didn’t have to win to win, Canada … certainly didn’t lose but didn’t win but by not losing … won, the UK didn’t really care all that much given the whole Napoleon thing and just wanted to be done with it.
The only folks who truly lost were the First Nations, again … as usual.
Oh shit and Spain too, but they lost Florida out of it … and is that a loss?
