Yeah, the conditions are specific, but that’s also true for Wasabi and truffles. The big problem with spiders has always been their canabalistic and solitary natures. Truffles and Wasabi don’t kill eachother.
Also just because the biome is specific, doesn’t mean it’s necessary. Biggest issues are probably their immune system. Such isolated things are usually easily hit by fungus or bacteria.
Woah, could this actually turn spider silk farms viable?
… that is an unbelievable number. As in I literally don’t believe it.
That would be pretty much 100% of all non Mamdani voters according to the election results.
If these guys voted instead of threatening to move, Mamdani probably wouldn’t have won.
Well, the rules are forcing them to run with Mamdani. Plenty of Democratic lawmakers do not like it. Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer, a lot of democratic legislators in his own state are not endorsing him. A lot of them did endorse Cuomo, if they didn’t this year, they have in the past, so to be suddenly mum and not even a feeble “I support him” is… odd at best.
There’s also no word behind the scenes that any legislators are even attempting to get Cuomo to drop out after… how many years has the argument been that third parties split the democratic vote? Now you have a Democrat doing just that and no condemnation from any new York legislators that he’s risking a republican victory. Not even a chant of “Blue no matter who” If bernie sanders had ran independent against Hillary, would Democratic leaders be this silent? Schumer would be furious and making press conferences condemning him. He doesn’t do that to cuomo.
In the meantime, multiple sources have been pushing mayor Adams to step down from his own independent race. Both democratic and republican (and billionaire), presumably to get more votes to cuomo.
Yeah admittedly I was originally pissed that they completely botched the original story of puss in boots.
But the character is just so good. Banderas was the perfect casting, and you can tell he loves the role. The upgrade won me over.
The nice thing is that any thrift or second hand store has TONS of children’s books, all for the amount of change you could scrounge up from a couch.
Yeah bit what they’re saying is they’re not online. It’s just slop online.
You know, I’ve seen arguments that we’ve just gotten better at testing, and that clearly our environment is causing autism…
But I haven’t seen the argument that the world has gotten better at connecting people with autism. Like, maybe dating apps, online message boards, and video games help people who don’t connect socially… connect socially. So what was previously a detriment to pass your DNA now has a crutch to help it happen.
You can’t! You’ll infringe on Nintendo’s patent!
Yeah, from the pics in other posts I’m wondering if this is just a very old lamp. Following the blueprint of its gas predecessor without any thought of what was no longer necessary…
Like a beta of an electric lamp? Before they realized the downsides of a wired connection compared to the “wireless” gas lamp predecessors.
OK, I was convinced this was a cop out answer. But the pic is literally the gas version of the exact same thing.
Better would be a shower with a skeleton that turns and shrieks. Then if the open the door again that’s when the guy with the chainsaw answers the door.
You, should really watch memento. A movie that dances with this exact topic.
I get lots of compliments on my username. Came up with it in the 90s and I feel like it aged well.
Ironically, kinda.
Think about it. If somebody else threatens you for money, you won’t have any money to give them when they threaten you.
It’s one of the reasons why you’ll often hear about “turf”. “Don’t start anything on my turf” It’s because everyone wants to be the only game on their turf so they don’t have to compete.
If you’re willing to go DIY, you can build some speakers yourself for pretty cheap. They’re very light, so you can easily mount them into a drywall ceiling and save floor space. They also don’t tend to oscillate the bass into the room above. Bass is a little light, but they’re good for the value.
For the projector, if you’re willing to put in some time and effort you can usually find them at auction for dirt cheap every couple months. (especially in an economic downturn…) Mounting is almost always the tricky part though. And the throw distance (how big the screen gets per foot of distance) is the biggest thing to worry about. Depending on the projector’s intended use uh… you can too big real fast. Peruse the manual (find the part number for the projector).
You can get a TV the same way, but projectors are almost always cheaper at auction because they’re niche and not in high demand. Just keep looking, they’ll show up sooner or later.
Keep in mind, projectors are often high latency. You won’t notice it playing movies, but if you’re playing COD or especially DDR, oh my god that will suck. Most newer models have a gaming mode to reduce it, but most models don’t focus on gaming. ALSO, get a spare bulb for the sucker before you actually need it. If you’re buying it used you’re already halfway through the bulb as is. (unless it’s a laser)
White sheet will work fine for a back drop. Official screens will increase contrast but if you have a dark room, not as necessary.

I drink with friends, I don’t smoke but I do hang out in the smoking areas though.
I wouldn’t say it’s unusual. Can’t say there was much peer pressure to get me to start drinking. It just was an easy conversation starter. “Whatcha drinking?”
I think it’s also one of the reasons smoking starts so easily. It’s a really easy conversation starter. Gotta light?
It’s not bad that the next generations are doing it less, but it does suck that they haven’t been replaced with a new conversation starter.
What blows my mind is the child predation isn’t even half the problem with Roblox. Gambling with real cash, child labor, black market for digital content.
It’s an absolutely dumpster fire of problems, and yet balatro is the one the EU cracks down on.
This is what drives me nuts about his apology.
It’s not that you thought it looked like her. It did.
It’s not that you thought it sounded like her voice. It did
It’s the fact that you thought she would string together the sentence:
Watching that sultry little temptress squeeze into a Canadian tuxedo three sizes too small with her bouncy little funbags on the screen staring at you, piercing through the core of your soul with those ocean-blue eyes that could resurrect the Führer from his grave in Argentina
In front of a full congress to be saved in the library of congress. That is how little you think of her. That’s the insult, that she’s somehow dumber than MTG.
That’s the thing to apologize for.
I mean that’s the end result.
If they don’t get along then each one needs their own box/pen, which means they’re fed and harvested separately, which makes it hella inefficient.
