What to do with an acre of grass (lemm.ee)

I don’t want this much ornamental grass, what do I do? Let nature take over a patch of it? Hire a landscape designer for a minimum of 10k? Please send help.

More info: I’ve stopped using -icides and I have a robot mower at 3.5”.

I have let a patch grow wild and added a couple apple trees and wildflowers. The city code enforcers want to mow it and fine me, but I don’t plan on letting them.

I’m kinda against fences because they feel pretty anti-social and I’m already only allowed to see people if I use a car. Then again, fences seem like the only way to combat these crazy deer.

I don’t want to design it myself because I want to believe that professional landscape designers do more than just plop stuff around on a whim.

My understanding is that UBI would benefit the impoverished the most, allowing them to get out of debt, put food on the table, or maybe even put a roof over their head, finally opening the door for them to live a prosperous life. This significant change and opportunity for them outweighs the inflation they may face. Food, water, shelter, and healthcare are a human right and UBI is one way to deliver that, so we should probably commit for that reason alone. With no other changes, worst case scenario, those of us that are better off can begrudgingly cope with the inflation potentially created. But besides the potential price hikes it’s worth mentioning that we will all see a return on investment as a society when our weakest are made stronger.

As for where the money should come from and how to fight the potential inflation so us in the middle class don’t lose the quality of life we’ve become accustomed to, we need to make the ultra wealthy finally pay their fair share, break up monopolies to create competition, and properly punish exploitation.

I just went back to RSS after some years and it’s just as good as I remember it.

Feels like I’ve tried everything except changing the proton version. I’m playing on an OLED if that makes a difference.

Please announce a trade in program, Valve. Don’t make me use eBay cause I’m not sure it’s worth the hassle at that point.

Tough to go from free to $10/month without any obvious to me improvements, as much as I’d like to support the cause

Why doesn’t the double tap and swipe (up or down) to zoom gesture work? Is it broken or can it be added?

Feature Request: AI auto crop/ focus on subject (cloudinary.com)

Like the tool I linked to, I think it would be a large step forward for Mlem if it could better handle images. Currently, images seem to be cropped to the center with no intelligence and make opening the image a requirement or something the user is dissuaded from doing. I know it’s a bigger ask, but someone’s gotta do it.

Is there an option I’m overlooking or does it not exist? If it doesn’t, can I request it be added? I’m tired of seeing giant text/ posts at the top of my feed like a giant banner ad.

I’m in need of a new AP but it looks like the majority being offered are still Wi-Fi 5 or 6. Has anyone heard what may be coming next?

Why change the name and get me all excited like that. Now I gotta make a return and find a different wallet. Also, from my first day with FineWoven, it is not a good leather replacement — it feels cheaper.

I see that it was announced about a year ago. Was it ever launched? If not, do you think it still will? It seems to check all the boxes for me.

I read that the standby screen will use the preferred clock based on the MagSafe charger used — is that true? It doesn’t seem to work for me. Am I doing something wrong or is it bugged?
