To be honest, the command line is an important tool, that when you are able to use correctly, will give you a better understanding of a lot of the inner workings of a machine.

The commandine might be intimidating at first, but I personally think not as big of a hurdle to think about replacing it with anything.

Most people that I know that at first were afraid of the command line but tried to get into it, now don't want to go back. Working with the cli is so efficient that it's hard to go back to GUI's.

Edit: don't get me wrong. I do love a good gui! And I am all for creating usefully GUI's, also for tech jobs. But I don't see a point in replacing the job you do in the cli with a GUI.

The last school strike but probably not the last strike. Gonna be interesting what she will do now after she finished school.

8 dollars? That's crazy. Especially because the plant itself isn't that hard to keep and produces an amount of leafs you will never be able to use all.

Agastache foeniculum seems nice, also seems to attract butterflies, which I was looking for anyways.

Oh yes love myself a good mint tea! Though I still have to find my favorite mint variety to make tea.

Yellow lavender? Huh, never heard of it, gonna look it up, thanks!

How does the hotness level depend on the watering? The less water the hotter the pepper?

To also contribute a plant myself: My current favorite is Jiaogulan. Even though it isn't really a spice, it is used to make tea (very mild) and they say it has the power to keep you young (not sure how much and if there is anything really to it).

Ah yes, basil got me into the whole plants rabbit hole. Love how easy it is to just get started by buying one pot from the super market and then just living off of it without ever needing to buy a new one.

I always let mine flower at the end of the year, and plant the next generation from seed, so I still have the 'same' basil plant from a couple of years ago when I started.

Edit: My current basil plants still are pretty small, but are looking good and healthy so far:

I don't see a picture. :( Maybe it got lost in the fediverse?

Yes, pressure cooker and pressure canner work the same. They use high pressure to reach higher temperatures - that higher temperature kills more bacteria.

A pressure canner still might be useful, because most pressure cookers aren't as big as the canners. I only use the cooker because I already had one way before I thought about canning stuff and because here in germany most canning still is done with hot water rather than in steam and therefore pressure canners are harder/more expensive to come by.
