I am the least-qualified person to reply but what I've learnt is that it's probably too much water, or not enough, or the correct amount but at the wrong depth. Or maybe it's not enough plant food, or too much, or not enough light (unless it's had too much but I think I can at least rule that one out). Or perhaps there's some pest or disease, or the plant's star sign means it must be aligned/unaligned with the local ley lines. Finally, your plant may dislike your music, or lack thereof.

I hope someone else can help narrow it down further.

The gallery's "download" buttons link to images that end in ~large.jpg but if you change them to ~orig.jpg you get the original images (they even still have the EXIF data).

Seems it's one of those definitions that only survives in a idiom:

The extended sense "piece of sport, trick" (1590s), survives mainly in the phrase the jig is up (attested by 1777 as the jig is over).

S1 actually finished about four hours earlier than S2 but the numbers are showing wrong (perhaps fixed by now).

Hopefully the techies don't destroy all the backups and it can be put back online once this current madness is history.

Looks like it's all over! 16h 22m, according to the leaderboard page (although the stats for season 1 says that lasted 16h 44m, which is too long, I think).

Thanks @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip for this, and I look forward to season 3 (May the 4th, or something from this list?)

I have noticed some mysterious system messages - ~~perhaps I~~ I had triggered some by pressing things but didn't put two and two together.

Do you know what you did to earn us all a click? I'm assuming that no-one else can get it now...?

Pure water has a pH of 7.0, which is neutral, although it will draw in C0₂ from the air and form carbonic acid so I guess you're technically right. Sea water is slightly alkaline.

This is the one that always makes me think of DPaint:

My favourite bit is this from the comments:

I wrote "please do not deliver this letter" on a correctly addressed and stamped letter once, it never arrived. A thrilling day indeed.

I love Doom Bar and I'm not alone since it's among the bestselling cask ales in the UK, but it seems that the US owners are going for a quick payout by closing and asset stripping what's left.

I wonder how long until they start building houses or an industrial park on the old site?

A severed mosquito proboscis can be turned into an extremely fine nozzle for 3D printing, and this could help create replacement tissues and organs for transplants.

I've linked to a decent write-up on Tom's Hardware, but New Scientist covered it last week too.

An Australian YouTuber got invited to a NATO wargame and made this very interesting video about it.

The section that starts at 3m30s (10 minutes long) discusses the military history of wargaming which I found fascinating.

The rest of it is also well worth a watch.

It's not new (it sat in my watch later list for a month since it's 65 minutes long) so apologies if you've already seen it.

My personal domain has hundreds of aliases - one for each site I deal with. This is great for identifying the source of spam, and I retire any aliases that get spam.

haveibeenpwned.com lets me add a domain, but wants 3912 USD a year to actually tell me which addresses leaked. This is obviously an insane price for a nice-to-have.

Is there an alternative for free or very cheap? A self-hosted tool that would pull down lists would be great, but I suppose those lists aren't public.
