    @Aqua-Letifer said in A WTF photo: I don't get it. It's the new Miami Formula 1 track. Presumably in an attempt to look serfisticated like wot they do in Monaco, they've added a fake marina, complete with fake water. I just hope the racing is better than Monaco. https://www.bbc.com/sport/formula1/61335213

    @Copper said in Racism du jour: Those songs might make a reference to a race, but they are not racist. This racist nonsense is going to come crashing down, big time, one of these days. After a generation of black babies are adopted by white parents, everything will get fixed right up.

    Really makes you wonder about how animals view their own relationships. But one thing we know for sure: Texas didn't do shit to support that adoption.

    @taiwan_girl said in GrubHub, Doordash, UberEats: @George-K Just curious, do the place you wanted to get a burger not offer delivery by themselves? Nope - when you click "delivery," they take you to Doordash. I always try direct delivery first if the restaurant offers it. More money for the restaurant, and usually a bit cheaper. Our go-to pizza place has its own delivery service, and it ends up being about $2 cheaper for the same food.

    @Klaus said in Glasgow Euro-Par: ... and it turns out that a person on Brendaette's thesis committee is a quite close colleague of mine who was recently an examiner of one of my PhD students. Small world... I love this. Thank you for sharing this, Klaus! It tells me why kiddo likes this person so much. If she's a close colleague of Klaus, she must be very knowledgeable and personable.

And an absolute fuckload of nitrogen. Water is one thing, but where you gettin' the nitrogen? I dont think you can get the same "yield" has a farmer would that is doing it, but if just wanting some corn and not worry about maximize the amount, I think it will work Sweet corn is a big deal where I'm from, and there, you can't grow it everywhere. You'd like to hit sweet corn twice with nitrogen, once at the knee high stage and once when it tassles. You can use triple 8 or triple 13, in a pinch, but you run the risk of putting in too much of the other components besides nitrogen. Or, you can spread in a little decomposed cotton gin trash or some barnyard fertilizer, providing it isn't too hot. Corn is essentially a grass derivative. As long as you use a sustained release lawn fertilizer with just a hair of iron and no weed preventative, it will work just fine. I've done that before and probably will do so again.

    @Jolly said in Think Biden is making stronger ties with our allies?: Thought Trump actually made a little progress down there. More than the Nobel Peace Prize winner that came before him... I do agree with this.
