    I was planning on starting some onions this fall. What other plants are good for overwintering when they are still young and which are we really better off waiting until spring for though?

    This whole mess has flooded my youtube feed with people self reporting. If they want an anti-woke version of Godot just so when they publish their bigoted games we can SEE that they are bigoted games, that's perfectly fine by me. The trash that takes itself out is best.

  • Should public transit in B.C. be free?
  • Butterbee Butterbee Now 100%

    "Brad West, the chair of the TransLink Mayors' Council on Regional Transportation, tells BC Today host Michelle Eliot that he likes the idea, but it's not currently realistic."

    Yes it is. It's a decision that is made to not fund transit enough for it to be free. It's a decision that is made that for some reason transit has to "make a profit".

  • Best foss alternative to CapCut?
  • Butterbee Butterbee Now 100%

    It's going to depend very much on the features that your daughter used in capcut and what she will need. If it's their "AI" tools and tiktok filters, probably not. If someone knows of foss projects that have those I'd love to hear about them!

    If she just needs a video editor that's free and powerful kdenlive is much simpler than getting into something like davinci resolve (which I would never recommend as a first step unless someone was very passionate about the editing process itself) and will give her the power to do pretty much anything you'd want, outside of proprietary filters or simple one-click tools.

    Openshot seems fairly similar to kdenlive, maybe a little simpler. Check it out if that might work for you. I've never used it and can't compare.

    Another one I have not used but is again MUCH simpler with fewer features but this may be a plus actually is Vidcutter. It looks like what I might imagine a FOSS version of Windows Movie Maker might be. Just drag clips in, cut them, mash them together, export. Simple, but not anything fancy.

    So in order of least experience and desire to learn the software needed to most, I would recommend Vidcutter, then Openshot, then Kdenlive.

    In order of the potential quality and variety of projects possible it's directly inverse.

    Unless your daughter knows what ACES and REC 709 means then maybe point her toward Davinci.

    It's not even fundamentally possible with the current LLMs. It's like saying "Yes, it's totally possible to do that! We just need to invent something that can do that first!"

  • Cities are overheating. How do we cool them down?
  • Butterbee Butterbee Now 100%

    Remove parking minimums, replace surface parking with greenspace, encourage transit usage over driving a car. The first two are pretty low hanging fruit. OR THEY SHOULD BE.

  • I'm looking to be able to store assets that I've created and purchased (both 3d models and images, potentially audio in the future) on my nas and would love to be able to use something to browse them and filter or sort them based on what kind of usage license I have for them. So if I'm doing a commission I can filter out the "personal use only" assets available. As the primary use is for visual arts assets, large preview images would be perfect. Teeny tiny icons not nearly as useful when browsing through image elements to find something you like. I'm really looking for a self hosted option, ideally one with a docker container available but I could also spin up a virtual machine to host it if required. Does anyone know of something that would fit the bill?

    I'm wondering if anyone here knows how to add the summoner archetype to a character AFTER you've unlocked it. I have already gone through that ordeal and can select the summoner as a new character. But I'd like to add the summoner to a new gunslinger and don't know if the grimoire might be available in the ward. I hope it is! But I suspect it is not. Edit: As luck would have it, and it is fantastically lucky, I ended up getting a bloodmoon immediately after posting this question. In case you are wondering about how to unlock it, here's what I know ::: spoiler spoiler You can look up guides on how to unlock the class and that's easy enough. You need to craft an item at an altar, and it is going to cost you blood moon essence which you can farm from wisps that spawn during a blood moon. What you don't find online is how to actually spawn the blood moon. I do not have good news here. It seems random and extremely rare. I have tried killing the doe as suggested. No bloodmoon. Travelling back and forth between the ward and yeasha, no bloodmoon. Just walking through doors. No bloodmoon. I did this for hours. SO. It seems like getting the bloodmoon is rare and just pure luck until someone can figure out the mechanics of it. BUT if you do get a bloodmoon harvest the wisps as fast as you can, and then go through a doorway into a dungeon. Not the crystal, you don't want to reset the monsters. Just go through a yellow loading door and back and the wisps will respawn. Farm up as many as you can. You need 15 for the class and then there's an armour set if you want to go for it. I don't remember how much all that is because I've never managed to farm up enough wisps lol. For this character I just happened into a bloodmoon and there weren't many wisps spawned in. I only saw three, so I just kept moving into the dungeon and back to respawn those three wisps until the bloodmoon was over. Anyway, I found a lot of guessing online, most of it wrong, about this so at least I can provide some experience. Good luck and good hunting! :::

    TLDR; there's no tracking and it requires a piece of hardware in between the psvr2 and pc. But they got past one major technical hurdle.

    "Bike theft isn't just a nuisance. It's a serious problem plaguing almost every city in the world, and it stifles bike-friendliness, discourages people from riding, fuels crime and undermines our sense of community. Yet almost no cities are doing anything to seriously tackle the problem. " This is a great video from Shifter about the benefits of bicycle registries. If you cycle in an area with a bike theft problem, chances are the police recover a lot more bikes than they can ever return because they simply have no way of knowing who to give the bike back to. One tool you can use to protect your bike is to register your bike with a service that the police are able to access. Tom's video focuses on Project 529 Garage in Canada, but there are similar services worldwide. There's a list here on wikipedia. Good luck out there!

    You may know the actor Nick Offerman as the gruff city parks director Ron Swanson on the NBC comedy Parks and Recreation or from his turn as the survivalist Bill on the HBO series The Last of Us, but he also has a lot to say about how people get around, share public space, and relate to nature. In his book Where the Deer and the Antelope Play: The Pastoral Observations of One Ignorant American Who Loves to Walk Outside, Nick takes a wry and philosophical approach to our stewardship of Planet Earth, the value of working with one’s hands, and the many problems with the massive agricultural systems on which we all depend. Nick Offerman joins The War on Cars to talk about his experience biking for transportation in New York City and Los Angeles, his views on masculinity and conspicuous consumption, and why the best way to explore an unfamiliar city is at the speed of a good walk. You can find the full transcript of this episode [here.](https://thewaroncars.org/episode-106-nick-offerman-final-web-transcript/)

    I'm looking at buying an induction burner but it's hard to find which brands may be reliable. Most of the youtube reviews are done by review bot channels and relying on amazon reviews in this day and age... yeah. So does anyone have any experience with these and know of a brand that I can go toward?

    When it comes to improvements to your town or city or even country, it can often feel like you are powerless in the world. But you're not alone. A city is made of communities and communities are made of individual people. One day our kids or our kids kids, or their kids, will be able to safely just walk to school. And it starts with finding your community, finding out what works from people all over the world, and then maybe introducing the ideas to your neighbours or voting for city/town council members who align with your goals. I just wanted to drop a more hopeful message rather than news or information.

    8 Really good suggestions for how you can help make improvements in your town. The first, simply voting, is so important and also pretty easy.
