    so we’ve gotten a shitton better at aero- and hydroponics. can we grow the right palm tree in a greenhouse yet?

    i’m in the california bay area so palm trees are more of a wealth indicator than a “hey they grow here” thing. but they’re everywhere because people want to signal that they’re wealthy, even if they aren’t.

      That will never be able to compete on price with clear cut rainforest land and trained primates doing the picking.
