  • Double chocolate

    Jump

  • I would assume double chocolate means chocolate dough and chocolate chips. Double in essence, not in quantity. And 40% is referring to how many chocolate chips are in the dough.

  • Neverminding the evidence to the contrary.

  • Vegans who actually believe what they preach spend more time on education and less on shaming or meaningless memes.

    This is just posturing.

  • Let me put it this way, with an imperfect analogy. If you poison the water supply, it doesn't matter how many people drink from it. They all die.

  • Former Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers Suggests Religion Is Used To Manipulate People

    Jump

  • That's cute that you think sports aren't about manipulation.

    Growing up in a single denomination is hardly a varied experience.

    Jump

  • Sigh.

    People use sources of power for their own benefit. I'm not arguing otherwise. What I'm saying is there's a chance a churchgoer or a pastor is doing it for selfless reasons, where that is never the case for sports.

    And your use of superlatives only displays your own ignorance. I've met people in power from several denominations, and many just want to help people. Plenty of denominations teach servant leadership. No doubt many people exploit religion. But at least religion generally tries to teach otherwise.

    You really should expose yourself to more real people before just parroting what you hear from loudmouths on the internet. Confirmation bias is a powerful thing.

    Jump

  • That's a false comparison. You can't lead anything without, to a point, manipulating people. You can manipulate them transparently and for their benefit, or you are manipulating them for your own. The people who lead and run sports leagues are definitely not doing it out of a sense of charity.

    Plenty of churchgoers and even pastors are in it to serve people with no real personal benefit. The same can't be said of professional sports players.

  • Well, duh.

    Here's a thing: so are sports.

  • Here's my dude. I have no idea what he is.

    Jump

  • That's not even close to true. Different breeds are meant for different purposes. Humans haven't been selectively bred for different purposes over thousands of lifetimes.

    Knowing the DNA makeup of your dog can help you head off certain diseases, and get a better understanding of their emotional needs.

  • More starts going and more potting ups. My peppers haven't even germed, so I'm gonna have to buy some more than I planned. 21ish more days till planting.

    Jump

  • Not where I live. Cold frames tend to overheat during the day, then lose too much heat at night. Even if you open them during the day.

    I'm not saying they don't work at all, I'm just saying I've not found the benefit for hot weather plants to be noticable. I just move them in and out during hardening, and make sure to not plant them until night time temps are high enough. That's given me the best yield and least BER.

    Jump

  • Cold frames only buy you a couple of degrees. They are best for more cold tolerant plants like lettuce, spinach, etc. Sensitive plants like tomatoes and peppers do best with just planting them a bit later, in my experience.

    I had trouble with growing peppers from seed until I got a heat mat.

  • Trying corn for the first time this year! I'm pretty hyped

    Jump

  • With that little bit of corn, you're probably going to want to hand pollinate. They recommend at least 4 rows about 15 inches apart. Corn is wind pollinated, so it needs a sizable plot and open exposure to get good harvest without help.
