We have a concept of word inflection, which can be used to replace a lot of words that English would use to denote something being a question, ownership markers, causes and effects etc.

Compounds are fun too, since you can do chaining:

Viskibassokitaravahvistinpiiri

Whisky base guitar amplifier circuit

Epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydelläänsäkäänköhän.

It's the longest word you can make in Finnish without using compounds, which can be infinite length.

It means, very loosely translated "I wonder if the outcome was a result of their lack of ability to cause others to be disorganized. "

I know, Finnish is an enviable language.

Tldr: agricultural use of antifungals has led to up to 88% of one common disease causing fungi to become resistant to them.

There are very few antifungal drug classes and greed ruined them.

In TNG Wesley has a hard time getting into the academy and one of the other applicants is a genius in his own right.

I feel like there was some affirmative action going on.

Safer, very high power to weight ratio, better self discharge stability and good temperature range performance are the advantages. The most important one is of course the lack of massive environmental impact of water hungry lithium mining in dry environments and the geopolitical challenges evident in lithium sourcing.

There are a few electric vehicles with this chemistry and I predict it will replace lithium based chemistries in lower cost, smaller vehicles.

Sodium batteries are already commercially available and although their volumetric energy density and round trip efficiency is lower than lithium I think they are a promising alternative to lead acid and some lithium applications.

I stand corrected, it does seem the more appropriate term.

Maybe Cambodia and Khmer Rouge? But not many.

So to my understanding Trump is proposing deportation as a means of punishment for violent crimes?

Obviously problematic, especially considering the lack of due process present in some other deportations.

Hey, I had been searching for a reasonably priced NC hosting for a while. I even considered a VPS from Hetzner but somehow didn't find this. Thanks for pointing it out.

A more pertinent concern is having to work with the person whose behavior precipitated this reaction.

One person locking their milk makes them a weirdo. Three means someone else is.

Yea, I am not surprised given that the regular lane keep is still ghost braking when going under bridges.

Still, I am surprised how well they are doing, using only cameras.

A little while ago I met someone whose job is to worry about international affairs and they were worried about operating systems.

After that I started worrying about every end user device in Ukraine shutting down until peace was negotiated.

This is interesting. I agree that stealing isn't the right category. Copyright infringement may be, but there needs to be a more specific question we are exploring.

Is it acceptable to make programmatic transformations of copyrighted source material without the copyright holder's permission for your own work?

Is it acceptable to build a product which contains the copyrighted works of others without their permission? Is it different if the works contained in the product are programmatically transformed prior to distribution?

Should the copyright holders be compensated for this? Is their permission necessary?

The same questions apply to the use of someone's voice or likeness in products or works.

There are maybe 6 or so of the cherry trees, counting out the young ones 5 apple trees and 1 plum tree. The apple trees have gotten too big and I have been removing fairly big branches so most of the effort is processing the resulting cuttings. So far I have done it little by little, so it hasn't been too taxing.

I will probably plant rowans and more smaller berry bushes. Maybe construct some wicking beds for smaller plants.

This year's effort will be lightening up the canopy to ensure enough light in the lower layers.

Tools I have for this: chainsaw, clearing saw, pole saw, shredder. I also sometimes use a flip saw to process smaller branches as I find the chainsaw... Untrustworthy . I have spent a total of perhaps 300e on the tools, not counting the flip saw - patiently waiting for good used tools to become available and fixing broken ones has served me well. Latest addition is a Klippo lawn mower. Got it for free, spent 40e fixing it and it works now. A new one is over 900. Granted this values my own time at 0e, but... The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

You need to post this into the SCP-wiki my man.

Somehow I assume this is not AI and if so... That's one chill kitty.

I think the poster forgot to finish their sentence with 'that they were'

Cherries, apples, plums in the northern edge of the temperate zone. Recently added buckthorn and blackcurrant although they are not really trees.

I bought an old property with ca 35 year old apple trees and 15 year old cherry / plum all of which had been left abandoned for about a decade. Their size is a problem. The apple trees are very tall and making contact with the building. I have a 7m long saw for trimming them amd I tend to take off one big branch per year and lots of small ones. Really big ones get the chainsaw, which is used to process the branches into firewood.

The cherries produce a lot of small bushlings. I manage them with a clearing saw.

We built a composting toilet which we use to process human waste. That one is emptied to an enclosed thermal compost for about 1-2 years more before being used. Last year we don't add more stuff to ensure it's safe to use. Kitchen and garden waste goes to an open compost. When we mow the "lawn" which is more like a field we let the clippings fall where they may to keep the nutrients in.

We process wood and sticks into mulch we use with paper to protect the bushes from weeds.

I apologize for my lack of gardening vocabulary.

Adult hedgehogs are also safe to pet, but only if they want to.

When I was a kid, I found one in the woods. At first it would ball up or escape when I arrived, but eventually it would fold down the spikes to let me pet it.
