Early in-person voting rolls out statewide in Michigan today!
  • The only people I know who even say they are thinking about voting for him are the die hard MAGA idiots. Every middle to non-extreme right leaning person I know says they're voting for Kamala. As long as people get out and vote I think she will win.

  • Erarly voting in Oklahoma. Lets hope this isn't our last election.
  • So the "camps" side of things definitely feels gross, but he's "threatening" to enforce the law, that's not wrong. Now if he's weaponizing the system to deport his opposition or otherwise law abiding citizens, that's a problem.

  • Man I left reddit to get away from the fear mongering like this, and yet here you are.

    Both parties benefit from the current system, therefore they both want to keep things the way they are.

    The system works.

    If you don't like the current state of things, it's not the system that needs changing, it's the people involved in it.

  • I try to get local, but I caved once and got some Onyx Coffee Lab and let me tell you, that was some of the most underwhelming coffee I've had. They must have the good reddit bots because it seemed well recommended there and there wasn't a single blend of the five I tried that was better than what I can get locally (SE Michigan).

  • Lawncare @lemmy.world Cptn_Slow @lemmy.world

    Tenacity has a shelf life of 3-5 years, if you are in that range consider replacing it.

    About 5 years ago, when I started getting more serious about lawn care I paid ~$75 for a jar of tenacity. My yard is smaller so I've made it about halfway through the jar, and in hind sight the signs were there, it's dead Jim...

    First year, one application at 4 oz./acre took care of my weeds. By about the third year, the first application just didn't quite kill off the weeds but the second application would finish them off.

    Finally this spring, I notice I've got a large portion of my yard taken over by creeping bentgrass. So I hit it with a 4 oz./acre and planned on doing 2 oz/acre every two weeks after to stall the bentgrass. But after the first application, the weeds didn't even bleach, and they were still fine after the 2nd application.

    I decided to replace my tenacity and not only has the price almost halved, but one application at 2 oz./acre and the entire yard has frosted tips, the bentgrass is stalled and the other weeds have vanished.

    TL;DR: Tenacity will start losing its potency around 3 years, if yours doesn't seem to be working, consider replacing it.

    Now if anybody knows what happens if you get close to max amount per year, please let me know. I'm curious, because now I have no idea how much active ingredient actually made it onto the ground.

    What really happened with Kyler Efinger, (the guy that died inside a jet engine)?
  • I haven't seen the video, but from your post it all sounds reasonable. Even at idle the safety zone in front of a turbine engine is probably 7+ feet.

    Especially while turning you have to push the thrust up, so that distance can go up to like 10-15 feet, maybe even more depending on the engine.

    Also, even if they saw him, which in the dark at an airport would be pretty hard to do, shutting the engine down takes time. And I don't mean you can't shut it off, I mean after you turn the switch off (Airbus at least) it takes at least 60 seconds for the engine to slow down to a speed that would only maim you, instead of kill you.

  • Lagavulin 11 Offerman Edition 2024

    First pour tonight, and I gotta say it's pretty good. I'm no professional, but if you like Lagavulin's other offerings you will probably like this.

    It's sweet, like really sweet, but I think the peat and smoke counteract it well.

    On the nose, the rum barrel didn't really stand out to me, it smells like Lagavulin, but just a little different.

    The taste is immediately sweeter than standard 16, but still tastes familiar. Milder on peat, and big on vanilla.

    And the finish I found good, the rum fades away, and the peat lingers.

    I paid $89 for it and I'd say it was a good buy, I wouldn't pay more though.
