You mean the entire plant or individual branches with the fan leaves removed? Because the latter should be fine as long as there’s some air circulation and the relative humidity isn’t too high. That’s how I’ve always dried them and I’ve never had mold. Few times I’ve moved them drying elsewhere after the surface has still felt moist after like 4 days of drying.

A quick look at your comment history indicates that you’re quite toxic yourself and it’s no wonder you attract so much opposition. Leaving may very well be the right choice here and a service to the whole platform.

How did you manage to do that?

Ridiculous that mods delete comments not supporting their agenda. This is like being on lemmy.ml

If he had said that you’d link me an article. He haven’t so you lie about it and justify it with orange man bad. Just shows how disinfo is spread by both sides.

No, stopping US military aid will definitely not stop the war and I’m not aware of Trump even claiming he is going to end military aid. Disinformation until proven otherwise.

Where has he said he wants to stop helping Ukraine? Haven’t he been quite vocal about wanting to end the war?

Nah, I don’t think she was serious about it. She was a frail old lady anyway.

10 year old me didn’t have much expectations about the future but I’d say 15 year old me would be most surprised about the fact that I have a girlfriend. If you were to then tell me that not only do I have a girlfriend but I also have a house and the truck I’ve always wanted it would literally blow his mind.

Of course, it’s okay. Being able to say “I don’t know” is a sign of intelligence in itself.

A huge number of people form opinions based on very limited knowledge, but these opinions then become part of their identity, and they feel compelled to defend them tooth and nail. I think the middle ground here is the idea of “strong opinions, loosely held,” meaning you have an opinion, but you understand it’s based on the best knowledge available at the time. You leave room for new information and allow your opinion to evolve. In fact, most opinions probably should be like that. There are very few views I hold that I feel are almost guaranteed not to change.

The Dunning-Kruger effect plays a big role here. When someone gains a moderate amount of knowledge on a subject, they often feel like they have a good understanding of it. But as they keep learning, they realize just how little they actually know. Uninformed people, by contrast, don’t know what they don’t know. These are the ones who write comments on social media pretending they’ve solved complex issues with simplistic solutions like “just do X,” while completely ignoring all the nuance. When you then try to introduce that nuance, they dig their heels in, taking it as a personal attack rather than a critique of their idea. This happens because they didn’t leave room for new information - they locked in their opinion, made it part of their identity, and threw away the key.

On Linux, you can either install it in one command in the terminal

If you know what to type into terminal which for the 99% of users means googling for instructions and in the end you’ve spent as much time and effort on it than you would on Windows. Assuming it works out without a hickup. If you put the right string of text in there but it returns an error, missing repository for example, you’re then stuck there with no clue what to do next.

I think that long time Linux users to who this is second nature underestimate how daunting this is for a novice.

Yeah I’m willing to go thru all this since I don’t use this computer for much other than playing 2 - 3 games so once its set up I don’t need to mess with it anymore. Overall I love the software. I just hate installing stuff and troubleshooting things.

It just seems obviously flawed idea that I’m supposed to just blindly trust some random website and copy&paste code from there and instert it into terminal despite having zero clue what it does and just take their word for it.

Last time I asked help on the Linux community about an issue I was having I was shunned for using the ubuntu store so I tried doing it the “proper way” this time.

I understoon 30% of the terms used in this comment. May explain why your experience with Linux differs from mine.

I don’t necessarily disagree but that is why it will never become more widespread.

Yeah the OS itself was easy to install. No issues with that.

Using the terminal and avoiding snap-software, or what ever it’s called.

With Windows I can just download an app and follow the instructions on the installer and more often than not it works without an issue. Even my grandmom can do that. With Mac it’s even easier.

I have never used the app anyway. I used Flamingo and when they killed 3rd party apps I’ve just been using browser instead. Lets me block ads that way too.

LLMs are AI. There’s a common misconception about what ‘AI’ actually means. Many people equate AI with the advanced, human-like intelligence depicted in sci-fi - like HAL 9000, JARVIS, Ava, Mother, Samantha, Skynet, and GERTY. These systems represent a type of AI called AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), designed to perform a wide range of tasks and demonstrate a form of general intelligence similar to humans.

However, AI itself doesn’t imply general intelligence. Even something as simple as a chess-playing robot qualifies as AI. Although it’s a narrow AI, excelling in just one task, it still fits within the AI category. So, AI is a very broad term that covers everything from highly specialized systems to the type of advanced, adaptable intelligence that we often imagine. Think of it like the term ‘plants,’ which includes everything from grass to towering redwoods - each different, but all fitting within the same category.
