Here are some old pics showing some "before and after" pics from pruning cannabis plants. The first two pictures are different plants, and thus, not really a "before and after". The second two pics are true "before and after" pictures. Pruning this way solves five issues in one snip. 1. Pests (most of which hatch in the soil, then climb, looking for food) starve on their way up the stalk. 2. The money you spent on nutrients goes toward the larger buds on the outside of the plant instead of vegetative growth, and small buds that are on the interior. 3. Any spraying performed will be highly efficient, and thorough. 4. Lack of moisture-collecting leaves and buds, allows for more airflow through the plant canopy; preventing mold/mildew 5. Harvest is cheaper/quicker. A plant with only "A" buds is quick to harvest, and dries quicker, than a plant with a lot of organic mass, "popcorn buds", and excessive stems. #cannabis

Boot issues fixed, and back to having my Linux partition available! 🥳 Now my client wants me to install Norton. Hard pass, and "hell no". I think I see a mini PC being mailed to me in the future. 🤣

A client offered to upgrade my MS partition to Windows 11. During the process my bootloader (Grub), got messed up, and it seems unable to read all partitions, except one. Now I can't boot into Linux without using a Live USB. 🤦🏻‍♂️

A friend, that is into investing and trading, told me today that he's purchased a cold wallet because he wants to self-custody at least some of his Bitcoin. I asked him which brand. He didn't know, and that it was "the most bought with the highest rating" on Amazon. That's my first red flag, as I've heard from my Nostr feed that bad cold wallets exist. He looked it up, and he's ordered a Tangem. Since I know virtually nothing about this topic, would you recommend something else? If it's "just barely good enough", then I'll leave him be. If he's made a bad decision though, I'd like to give him some info so he can get something viable. #bitcoin

I wonder if the information being put out regarding microplastics is really a play toward restricting home 3D printing.

I found a game that was last updated in 2010, with the premise of using your hacking skills to "take back cyberspace" from rogue AIs. The game starts with the player being digitized. Is this the inspiration that started Elon down the brain-chip path?
