That’s a nice collection of plants!
We’ve started avacado pits a few times. Ours tend to be less tall when they start putting out leaves, I wonder why that is.
None of our avacado starts ever seem to last that long. They have to stay in pots due to our climate and either seem to do really well and get too big too fast or never do well and just look sad.
Nope! That’s part of the fun sadly. At least if you’re technical you’ll know that not all type-c cables are the same.
Display port over USB-C is totally a thing. With things like USB-PD USB seem to be getting dangerously close to becoming the standard for everything. The cables are a wreck though and are way too hard for a layperson to tell apart.
Great read, with some amusing asides.
Shots fired!
That seems like a lot of damage for one week, but I guess anything is possible.
In general, plants don’t like sudden changes to their environment. That’s why you should gradually introduce indoor plants to sunlight if you move them outdoors - you’ll give them sunburn. I suspect the same is true for roots. I keep my orchids in bark and let them dry out some between waterings. I suspect if their roots were suddenly moist 24/7 they wouldn’t be too happy about it.

I am a die hard laptop/desktop person but the majority of my outside of work ‘computer’ time is on my phone these days :(
We let ours get pretty dense in the pot before we split them. As for whether or not this is big enough to viably split, I suspect it will be fine. Snake plants are pretty hardy.
It’s just the one flower, so I’m not going to worry about it. The plant does get hosed down from time to time, so it could be water droplet sunburn.
The colors are probably off because the plant was horribly backlit for the photo, so I did some quick/dirty phone image manipulation to have the flowers be less muted.
100%! Despite their reputation for being fickle, I found phalaenopsis (phalaenopsii? phalaenopsises?) to be pretty hardy.
I suggest something where you get to work with a wide range of the populus. Opportunities are basically all service industry jobs: waiting tables in a restaurant, working retail, working in a hotel, etc. Learning how to interact with wide swaths of humans is an invaluable skill that will serve you well in your future professional career. I would focus on building social and emotional intelligence.
It’s interesting that it’s a middle leaf. Our orchids tend to grow new leaves on the top and drop leaves on the bottom as they put out new roots going up their stem. Every few years I have to unpot them and cut the bottom few inches, otherwise they will climb out of their pot.
When our orchids drop leaves they look very similar to the leaf on your plant.
In my experience, this variety of orchid thrives on benign neglect. Ours very rarely get fertilized. They also only get watered every two weeks or so and when they get watered the bark they’re in is pretty well saturated.
Glad to see them recovering! In my experience, phalaenopsis are very hardy and resilient. If anything, the seem to prefer some level of benign neglect - especially when potted in the junk big box stores sell them in. After repotting ours in well draining potting material about 7 years ago it’s been very smooth sailing.
Absolutely. If the leaves don’t perk up I would snip the flower/baby spike.
Hard to tell, I’ve had Phalaenopsi put out more flowers on old spikes, as well as babies. We’ve had one for over 10 years that’s been through quite a bit before I finally pulled it out of the moss we bought it in, cut most of its roots out, and potted it in bark.
In my experience, they’re pretty hardy. I would personally let the spike go until you know what it is and make the call. Watch the leaves, as long as they don’t get more raisney I would probably just leave it alone.
I am not personally familiar with either lens. I suggest looking at reviews and paying attention to the list of image impacting bullets I put into a different reply. Generally speaking, lenses that have less of a max/min zoom ratio are easier to pull off design wise, but from a “one lens, all day” perspective something like an 18-150 is hard to beat.
Because it’s Canon’s RF mount, I think all lenses in this focal range are first part (ie are from Canon). Your choices are:
You could look at adopting a lens, but I suspect a lens + adapter will make this tough at under $600 new.
I was thinking the same :(

Strategic lawsuits against public participation (also known as SLAPP suits or intimidation lawsuits), or strategic litigation against public participation, are lawsuits intended to censor, intimidate, and silence critics by burdening them with the cost of a legal defense until they abandon their criticism or opposition
There are many, many variants. The idea is the smaller player can’t really afford to fight in court, so even if the larger actor has shaky legal claims they will still win.
Tell that to my very sideways baby Jade :(
Which are you referring to? Build quality and repairability? IME, enterprise laptops are well built, but generally have horrible quality displays in terms of both resolution and color gauntlet support.
