Like the title says, What are you using Waydroid for? Don't say running Android apps in Linux. What apps in particular?
I installed Waydroid for giggles and grins. But now I can't seem to find a use for it.
First off, Thank you for all the help on my first bean question a couple of weeks ago. Since then I've been leaving the pods to hang on the vine to see if they would dry out. Well, today I spied a few dried pods and a lot of not dried pods and several more in stages in between. So I picked a sample.
Pictures show the pods, left to right, in various stages of dryness. 1st picture I've broken them open to display the beans. 2nd picture is the pods in the same order. redit, why did you reverse the picture order?
The greenest pods (first two) needed some help from a knife to slice the pods open. After that I could crack them open with my fingers. The beans on the left faded noticeably after I opened the pods. None of the beans were actually dried. At least now I have an idea of when I should pick them.
So, I think I'm going to cook these for dinner tonight (boil for 10 minutes?) and see how they turn out.
My Surface Go 2 arrived the other day. I basically flipped a coin and installed Peppermint Linux on it. No particular reason other than it was a Debian distro. No OSK, so I installed OnBoard.
Well, it runs. But it's not really a tablet, just a thin Linux computer. What i mean is:
These are all behaviors I get on my Android tablet and expect on any tablet.
So beyond this basic pissing and moaning, does anyone have any suggestions for either some adjustments or addons that can make this more tablet like. Or a better distro (debian based) that is more optimized to tablet behavior?
I want to take about 24 inches of rope, form it into a bite bight, and attach the free ends to a steel ring. I want to end up with a steel ring with a loop of rope attached to it.
So. What knot will do this? It has to handle a load. At first I thought of a Cat's Paw. But that uses the wrong end of the bite and leaves the free ends dangling, not captured.
EDIT: Spelling.
Update: Thanks for the great ideas. And the pictures. I think I'll try a modified version of on of the hitches. Something that will capture both lines as if a single knot. Time to get out some rope and start experimenting.
Simple question. Oregon doesn't allow Crypto IRAs. But, can I put crypto derivatives (IE: BITO) into a traditional or Roth IRA?
I posted this over on r/vegetablegardening. Redit thinks this group would be interested.
So, I might as well fill everyone in on the experiments I've been doing with my beans this year.
Background:
I've been gardening for 16 years and during that time I've mostly grown Blue Lake and Kentucky Wonder pole and bush beans. There may have been some other verities at times, but I didn't keep good notes.
Over the last 6 years I noticed that my beans were struggling. Harvests were later and lighter. So I decided to try something new.
What I did:
Provider and Contender Bush beans. I chose these based on a lot of good reviews. And I'm glad I did. They have been the singular most successful beans I've ever grown. They are hardy and seem to be immune to whatever the yellow leaf disease is that attacks my beans every year. The production has been fantastic. These are going to be back next year.
Bush beans in a grow tower: Not so good. I was gifted a set of clover shaped containers that can stack into a tower. Cool, Plant bush beans in tower, increase yield per sq foot. Yeh, didn't work beans don't like grow towers. If I feel the need to increase the yield of bush beans, I'll grow them in something like my Strawberry pyramid.
Kentucky Blue: A cross between the Kentucky Wonder and Blue Lake. I thought it would have the best of both. Nope, more like the worst of both. Not doing them next year.
Scarlett Runner Beans. Started out with lots of promise. They grow fast and took off up the trellis. Made nice pretty blossoms. The beans on the other hand were kinda meh. The pods were fuzzy and fibrous. Tasted OK. At this point I'm letting the pods plump out and I'll harvest for the beans in the pod. I may keep growing them, but in the perennial section of the garden.
So that's it. I thought you might like to know.
Update: Looks like the bush beans have run their course. Slightly over 3 weeks of good production.

Hucking this panel around a couple of times a day and propping it up with a janky camera tripod started to get old. In case you are wondering; the 3rd leg is the height adjuster from a curbside basketball hoop.
Walk up to the bus stop to ride to work. Look at my phone to check the time and notice the battery is at 15%. Crap, that won't last the day. And I'll be moving around too much to be able to charge it at work. No problem, that's why I carry a powercell. Although it should be noted that I don't depend on it. But there it was. And my phone got up to 60% during the bus ride.
I could have spent the day scrounging power from here, there, and everywhere. But I didn't have to.
And that's it. No zombies, no big disaster. Just a minor crisis averted because I planned ahead and was prepared. Sometimes it's the little things.
