@mangeurdenuage
> the woodchips I got were left unattended so I use took them.

:D

> Anyway here's a book on the subject of gardening I recommend reading.

thanks a bunch! :)

@dude

@mangeurdenuage there are many oak trees here so it's sour. i will try the small wood chips! we have a sawmill in the neighbourhood, maybe they have some cheap stuff i can use. @dude

@bonifartius @dude
You can use whatever you want, it doesn't matter, just avoid too much pine tree wood, not because it's "acidic" that's an urban legend, but because sap is resinous and takes longer to decompose.

You also need to know that the caliber of the woodchips will influence heavily the micro biological life domination in the soil.
If you go under 1centimeter then the wood chips will promote bacterial domination, don't go too small like sawdust, sawdust won't be beneficial, it won't permit the soil to breath.
Bacterial domination makes you soil more Alkaline thus veggies will grow better in it.

And over 1 centimeter then the wood chips will promote fungi domination.
Fungi domination makes you soil more acid thus trees, fruits trees and bushes will grow better in it.

My big recommendation is to make borders between the grass and the mulch, the grass will invade it, sadly can't do my borders right now due to logistic issues.

@thor the fun thing is that the population here in germany isn't skeptical of vaccinations in general. the classic stuff has rates of 95% iirc.

now we have around 30% people who just don't want the magic mRNA stuff and they are treated more and more like lower caste people.

the leader of the assiciation of public-health-insurance-licensed-doctors in north Rhine-westphalia even said that unvaccinated should pay their hospital bills themselves. this isn't lawful currently, but if the trend continues it will.

then we will have the "funny" situation where you have a forced insurance membership where you have to pay your own hospital bills if you don't want to get the vaccine. if this doesn't is dystopian, i don't know what is.

i don't have to say that the idea to pressure people doesn't increase compliance but does the exact opposite. everyone can decide for themselves what they put into their bodys without having to fear for their existance. that's a hill i'm ready to die on.

@thor it just shows how broken the whole system is if they aren't making enough money in the first place. instead of fixing this (we have more than enough money for this), they choose to kill.

@thor yeah i think there is. there too is financial aid to get shepherd dogs and fancy fences, but farmers just want the wolves gone. usually a few wolves are selected for "removal", but there are illegally shot wolves all the time.

@mangeurdenuage i'll try that for next year. which kind of wood chips do you use? just random stuff? @dude

@thor wolves are back in germany and many farmers are like "😱" because they from time to time kill some livestock. can't blame the wolves, it's like a all-you-can-eat buffet for them.

where the shepherd dogs are used, they seem to work pretty well. it's cheaper to shoot wolves though, so that's whats done :/

in northern germany sheep are usually used as lawn-mowers on dykes (usually with fences) and in some areas where they were traditionally held like en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCn to preserve the landscape.

I know this is not absolutely so, and good thing too, but it is an indication that we must be honest with ourselves and others and be vigilant in who we follow and uphold as ideals in and to society. Stop participating in the fancy lies. Say no to them, and go elsewhere.

@Lamdarer@social.dev-wiki.de i just don't see the use of running proprietary software on a free system 🤷‍♀️ like i've said, i completely agree that people should use more free software. selling free software to them because it can run closed stuff just seems wrong to me.

@Lamdarer@social.dev-wiki.de i comoletely agree that.people should use free software, but just using linux as vehicle to run proprietary stuff is misguided.

@Lamdarer@social.dev-wiki.de because i just run games with windows and the secure and isolated sandboxes all have had leaks. hell, xen as hypervisor had enough cves (xenbits.xen.org/xsa/). they are just too complicated technology. anti cheat doesn't work without kernel access (and even then it's probably bs). either you just drop it and have cheaters, or you have to run a blob in kernel space and also have cheaters.

@Lamdarer@social.dev-wiki.de no, i won't taint my free software system with the spyware anticheat is. that shit can stay where it belongs, on the seperate windows hard drive.

@velartrill i think it just doesn't fit the bill. i guess you could add it as a submodule. it just isn't useful for many things except graphics or number crunching. essentially it's just a bunch of alus.
futhark-lang.org abstracts over cpus and gpus, it looks nice but i don't have any use for it currently.
i'd really like to work on something heavy parallelizeable, it's currently only used for things like KI and cryptomining because nobody (i know of) really bothers to design new algorithms.

@velartrill gpus are heavily parallelized simd architectures. they are more like batch jobs of old times. you load a bunch of data, press start and then retrieve the results.
