Most oils will suffocate aphids when applied directly, but neem oil contains azadirachtin, a pesticide which will stay on the plant and will keep aphids away by disrupting their lifecycle.

If you’re not yet on I2P, start with https://geti2p.net and then set up an I2P router.
Once you’re on I2P, personally I use notbob.i2p to see what’s up. - Comment on Gender corn 2 weeks ago:

I haven’t stumbled upon much sketchy stuff, you’d need to know where it is and discovery is still fairly manual though indexing services exist. Of course you need to find those services in the first place…
Anonymity is more of a focus than 90s internet, so it’s hard to tell who anyone really is but you’re probably right. There are active Russian and Iranian dissident text forums though.
However, for me, it’s the people just hosting personal websites e.g., a darkwave radio site, or a cryptography blog. Obviously the barrier to entry means it leans fairly techy.

Correct. Come to I2P and experience 90s internet again. It’s slow but has character, if by character you understand I mean anonymous Geocities.

We need real choice of operating system when buying phones. The situation is far worse then Windows bundling Internet Explorer and they actually took action on that.
- Comment on Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production 4 weeks ago:
And if it’s as he says, and eventually all games get labeled that way, what’s his problem with that? Man just doesn’t want to compete.

What Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain teaches you is to draw how an object does look. I’m probably a 4 on the scale and can draw because of this book. One of the memorable techniques is to take a photograph, turn ti upside down and draw it that way. Then, turn your drawing upside and see what you got. By making the image a bit confusing, you can focus on the lines and shading your eyes see, and not ‘a man in a chair’ your mind sees.
