My theory on concrete and plants:
- Thats a LOT of dirt and material without any competition for the roots.
- Water/moisture is in the cracks/holes/etc… so it helps the plant with constant moisture control.
- Some plants know how to take care of rocks and paths are just big rocks.
- Random selection as this one seed is extremely good at surviving.
Just some thoughts. I have a fruit tree that LOVES it next to concrete. I get fruit every year from that thing.

1·16 hours agoNice, glad you like the design. I do too.
I think in theory it would be easier to repair. But it is 250 which is quite a bit.
Ill know in a couple months!

5·19 hours agoIf anyone wants to see the old project: https://hackaday.io/project/192688-the-open-book
Its been around for a bit. The newest iteration looks like its trying to be more like kindle.
GH page: https://github.com/joeycastillo/The-Open-Book
I forget where but the developer goes over the cost of the physical hardware a couple of years ago somewhere. Its kinda expensive to make your own open source ebook reader from mostly scratch.
I like this version: https://www.oddlyspecificobjects.com/projects/openbook/

Peertube@lemmy.world•Peertube instance where there is federated content from other peertube instances?English
4·5 days agoNot exactly what you are looking for but: https://piefed.social/f/fediversevideos has a LOT of channels and communities (like our sister community at !peertube@lemmy.wtf). If your on piefed, you can subscribe to the feed.
https://peertube.wtf/ has quite a few instances but it can be a bit on the slow side. peertube has issues with a lot of federation once the servers get 1000+ sources. The videos are fine, its just finding the videos that continues to be the issues.
