Bk Tree Puns

What's your spot to buy Christmas trees in BK? We're in Crown Heights so would love recs in Bed-Stuy, CH, Prospect Heights, Park Slope.

Happy holidays all!

Hi. I have a very small little corner of a city balcony that I have nurtured into a lovely little wild greenspot this year and it brings me so much happiness. tonight we are expecting first frost and even through the little garden is still beautiful, i want to ensure i prepare well so that I can hopefully enjoy it again next year.

My pride and joy of this corner is my rose tree and I am reading that the rose tree can survive outside in this zone - Is it enough to add some mulch or should i create a cover with some burlap? Also, i am reading that you add the mulch AFTER the first frost -- is this true? thanks in advance.

(I'm letting my /r/Frugal leak into this sub...)

First year I'm getting a Christmas tree, and I've been trying to get a feel for prices in the area (Windsor Terrace-ish), and so far I've gotten quoted anywhere from $40 for a 6' Fraser from a nursery in Kensington to "$12 per foot" from a sidewalk guy in Park Slope. A coworker from Queens said she picked up an 8-footer for $40.

Anyway, anyone in South Brooklyn know of a nursery/sidewalk seller that's pretty reasonable? For all I know the $40/6-ft is the best I'll get down here, and that's cool, but just thought I'd see if there were better deals out there. I can drive, so far-South Brooklyn (or elsewhere) would be fine, too.

Thanks!

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Do your worst!

Sorry for the wait! Its year end at my job so Ive been utterly swamped with paperwork and getting filing done before the new year starts. Plus getting ready for the holiday. However I hope you enjoy the next installment!

My species was patient. It was a skill we had developed on our home planet. The high temperatures meant we had to limit our predation, to think about our movements and ambushes before we made them, to ensure we weren’t needlessly wasting energy on repeated failed attempts. It was what made us so easy to get along with when the others had arrived on our home world. We had waited, and listened, and watched the newcomers and then thought to the Great Mountain about their motives and came to the conclusion they were genuine.

But still, it was a trait all of us Jyngt had, and I was just the same as the rest. We waited, we watched, and we thought our words and actions through. We always had and I was fairly certain we always would, even in the fast paced world we currently lived in. And through the hours in her company, I felt that the little human named Rock-sea was genuine.

I had been excited for the first contact, we all had been, I was excited us Jygnt could finally share food with another species and enjoyed her EDM music but I had held my own counsel, reserving myself slightly to watch and learn from her, to see how she was and how much we could trust her.

She was a genuine person. I truly believed, through my observations, that she was excited to meet us, genuine in her want of friendship, and her motives were pure. Well as far as motives could be when one was thrust into a situation there was no preparation for. Still, she seemed to have no hidden agendas, no dangerous undercurrents to her presentation, there was no facade. I was fairly certain that what we saw was the actual person she was. It was nice to see and a bit relieving. I had not wanted to find something untoward that would mean a stop to the budding friendships that I knew were being created in her company.

Us on the council had been forced into close proximity, it was the basics of the job as Ambassador, but we had also been chosen based on how well we could work together. All of us, in some way or another, had things in common. We created friendships and bonds to ensure we worked well together and to show the planets we oversaw that despite our differences, we could all be friends. Sure there were moments when some arguments happened and feelings we

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

For many years now, I’ve been making a time capsule to document BTS’ growth from 2015 onwards. You can see all the old time capsules on this wiki page!

It really does, I swear!

These quick tips are for players new to the game. It is not intended for setting up multiplayer servers. I don't claim to have all the starter tips and I hope that y'all can provide more.

1. Walk, Don't Run - Walking is faster than shamblers "chase" speed (when they have their arms out chasing you down). So with good maneuvering, you can outwalk a massive horde of zombies. Trying to fight zombies while exhausted is a sure way to reveal how you died.
2. Get Your Sneak On - Press 'C' to sneak. If you walk next to buildings and fences, your character will crouch even lower making them harder for zombies to see (see here for the change). Running in sneak will reduce stamina quickly too. While in sneak mode, hitting 'q' will produce a whispered shout. It'll call over nearby zombies or allow you to determine if one is right behind a door.
   1. JCDentoncz adds - Sneaking is most useful for reducing sound, it barely affects the zombie chance to spot you, see this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqNbaCQ2JLM
3. Peek-a-boo - When you're going to open a door, you can quickly open and then close it to see if there's a zombie on the other side.
   1. Addition by DezZzo - Or you can also just push the door, sound is not that loud, but it will aggro zombies near door and they will make their presence obvious. Wouldn't mention this, but I sometimes had issues where by instantly opening and closing the door zombies still got through somehow.
4. Be Seated - If you need to refill stamina quickly and you're in a safe place, right click and sit down. This will refill that stamina much faster.
   1. Addition by DezZzo - Upgrade to this advice: sit near bed/couch/chair, then press "rest". Resting while your character sits improves the rate of stamina regeneration by a good amount.
5. Being Blunt - Blunt weapons do not damage zombie clothing like pointed weapons do. If you see something a zombie is wearing that you want, beating it down with a blunt weapon will keep it in better shape
6. Under Control - Hold the right mouse button to bring up the iso cursor. Your character will continue to look where the cursor is pointing while you move around. You can even push the screen to see further away by moving you

Hello all,

I’m just a fan of MobileCoin and I think it’s time we (the community) try to formulate some sort of FAQ on this subreddit. I would say by far the most active platform for MobileCoin discussion is on the Official MobileCoin General + Tech Chat Signal Thread. However, due to the large size of the group (roughly 700 at the time of posting) and the disappearing messages, many of the same questions are repeated. Additionally, reddit just tends to be a much more accessible platform for news and information. Community members please feel free to contribute to this. FYI a lot of this info is either from their official website or from posts/messages found elsewhere.

Questions:

1. What is MobileCoin (MOB)?

2. Why is MobileCoin used in messaging apps?

3. How did MobileCoin Inc start?

15. What is the circulating supply of MOB?

16. What are the main criticisms of MobileCoin?

18. What is MobileCoin (MOB)?

MobileCoin is an encrypted-focused cryptocurrency designed for use in everyday transactions.

No one except for the sender and receiver can see the details of the transaction. The public blockchain is encrypted to ensure security.

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

The first elements of 3rd company carefully walked through the gate into Porttown, weary for any sign of an ambush. Holt followed them closely expecting there to be some kind of welcome. Sure enough, a small group of people stood in the middle of the street, flanked by a couple armed guards, seemingly waiting for him. After a few tense moments where the two groups eyed each other warily, a tall man with broad shoulders stepped forward.

“Over here!” he called, waving a hand.

“Are you in charge here?” Holt asked back, walking forward with his own group following at his heels.

“As much as anyone is,” the man shrugged, “you?”

“I’m the Champion of Victoria,” replied Holt, “I wasn’t expecting… well not sure what I was expecting to be honest.”

“When we heard your army was on the way, we figured it would be the best time to take over,” the man replied, “I’m Daviir.”

“Holt,” the champion nodded greetings, “hope there were no deaths.”

“The warriors were drunk and drugged, it seems, so other than a few injuries we managed to capture them pretty easily,” Daviir explained, all the while Holt could practically feel Amilia grinning smugly, “I just hope it wasn’t for nothing. We need power, we’ve had to turn off most of the services of the town. Lighting, water and so forth. Even so…”

“How were you getting power beforehand?”

“The Harbor Quay wall has a half dozen turbines built into it, as the tides flow in and out it generates power. But the regulation system was damaged, and we don’t have the ability to repair it,” replied Daviir, “the housing blocks have solar and wind generators, but almost all of them were damaged in the war.”

“Well, I’m willing to help out as long as you join the nation,” Holt said.

“We knew you would ask for that, and have been ready to accept whatever terms you give us since we decided to take over. So long as you can get us power before people start dying.”

“That’s fair,” Holt nodded, pausing to think, “soonest an assembler will be available is in a couple days, and it could take up to a week to repair the road here and get power flowing that way.”

“Even with minimal power usage we won’t last that long,” Daviir replied sadly.

“I figured, I can have a truck with a fabricator a few emergency generators delivered in a couple hours. Probably won’t be enough to power up the entire town but might keep you going till the road is repaired.”

“If we had the designs for the tidal generator regulation computer we could fix it with a fabricator
