I prefer that everything that touches my skin to be woven cotton. I don't like tight clothes and wicking material is evil. Knit, polyester, or those sweat clothes that have a fuzzy inside are itchy and aggravating but wicking material is pure concentrated evil in physical form. What's most comfortable is a tee and gym shorts. Jeans replace the gym shorts to go out. If I have to dress up I typically wear dress pants from a "work brand" like Dickies because they are a bit thicker and looser than most dress pants.
Hobo spiders are in the US but they aren't dangerous. They are funnel web spiders and some funnel webs, especially in Australia, are extremely dangerous which gives Hobos an undeserved reputation.
Orb weaver is a classification of spiders that includes about 3,000 species, they vary significantly in size. If it makes a "classic" spider web with long strands connected in a circular pattern then it is an orb weaver.
It looks like an orb weaver. They eat pests and are generally beneficial. The US only has 3 dangerous spiders. The black widow, the brown widow, and the brown recluse. That isn't any of those.
I suppose you could add the detail that the Federation was actually agreeing to provide a certain amount of energy to the Barzans.
That's pretty much what I was saying, maybe I didn't say it well.
A Federation credit is a right to use a certain amount of energy on a Federation replecator. So if a non Federation group wanted to get 10k self sealing stem bolts from the Federation then Starfleet would look up the energy requirement to replicate the stem bolts and divide that by how much energy is represented by one credit and that's how many credits the group would have to use to get the stem bolts.
This is head cannon and I can't really support it in universe but it's the only way the Federation economy makes sense to me.
Every Federation citizen gets an energy allotment that they can use to replicate anything that they need. The allotment is well beyond what's required to meet their basic needs. A Federation Credit is an allotment of a certain amount of energy that the holder can use to have the Federation replication something for them. The credits aren't particularly valuable to Federation citizen living in Federation controlled space because they are already allotted a large amount of energy.
Kbin has upvote, downvote, and boost. Boost comes from the microblogging side, kbin does both content aggregation like Lemmy and microblogging like Mastodon. On the content aggregation side boost counts as 2 upvotes and it functions as normal for the microblogging side. Kbin.social is the only Kbin instance I used, I expect that it works the same on other Kbin instances and on Mbin but I don't know for sure.
Op is talking about accounts that upvote spam content. For the most part those accounts will be the spammer's alts that will be posting spam when the current account gets banned. Blocking them while they are still being used for vote manipulation means you wouldn't have to see their spam in the future.
That's way too much work. I just logged into my original account on kbin.social and tapped on the activity button to see votes before that instance went down. If I want to see votes again I can set up an account on any kbin or mbin instance in less than a minute and do the same thing.
It was one of my first video games, we had it for the Atari 2600, and I have it on a RetroPi emulator. You are a chef and the stages are platforms with ladders between them similar to Donkey Kong. The platforms have hamburgers ingredients on them and you have to avoid the enemies and run over the ingredients to make them fall to the bottom. You have to build all of the burgers to win the stage.
Looks like spider mites. Mix 1 part 70% isopropyl alcohol to 3 parts water in a spray bottle and spray the plant once or twice a day. Make sure you get the underside of the leaves. The alcohol is a contact killer so it will probably take a few days to get rid of them. Give the plant a quick rinse with plain water before harvest. This is the method for herbs and vegetables. I don't know if there are any differences for your particular plant.
That's what they tell us anyway. What actually breeds innovation is giving people the opportunity to explore their own talents and pursue their interests from a place of stability. Things that interfere with that include tying healthcare to employment, allowing receiving healthcare to bury someone in debt, tying public education to local income levels, allowing pursuing higher education to bury someone in debt, inadequate public mental health services, allowing the minimum income for a full time employee to be below the amount required to meet basic needs for the average family, allowing work time for a full time employee to exceed a reasonable limit that would allow the employee to spend time with children, take care of their own health, and pursue hobbies and other interests.
We also have a problem on lemmy that there is a subset of users who think that votes are how you curate your feed. They downvote anything that they don't want to see instead of blocking communities that they aren't interested in.
Using scaled sorting really helps with getting smaller communities on the front page. I still see the political and news communities but I also see communities for cities and niche hobbies.
It’s crucial to note that our bias scale is calibrated to the political >spectrum of the United States, which may not align with the >political landscapes of other nations.
From their methodology page.
They aren't rating for any and all bias. They are rating for political bias within the context of the US political landscape.
She keeps telling us that we should vote for her because of her record as a prosecutor and Attorney General so apparently what she did in those roles is what she thinks is important.
