Here we go!

Wie scheisse ist es bitte an einem Kaktus Spinnmilben zu haben? Überhaupt an die Stellen dran zu kommen, um sie mit Alkohol abwischen zu können gleicht einer Herzoperation. #plants #pflanzen #cacti @plants

This experiment with cacti seeds has been a total failure. More than 90 days, growing lights, proper humidity ... and norhing!!! I am disgusted. #cacti

Et oui, ya pas mal d'années, j'ai fait du reverse engineering sur le schema de BDD de #Cacti, pour en apprendre suffisamment pour injecter les RRDs générés par #PNP4Nagios dedans. En #Bash. Je sais pas si ce que je faisais était conforme aux specs, mais ça marchait très bien !

En réalité, on n'utilisait pas #Nagios mais #Shinken pour la supervision, mais de toute façon c'est compatible.

Got the rest of the spines in. Tried to work on the other bird painting… it just wasn’t working. Painting can really be a jerk, sometimes.

I've been learning about using succulents as garden plants to cope with summer drought. (Given review copy, not paid.)

'The Dry Exotic Garden' by Paul Spracklin is a comprehensive look at a style of gardening he's been testing for decades. Advice from what he's learned ranges from design and propagation to plant choice and cultivation.

Quality time with my 0 round brush, painting spines. Better than paying attention to all the chaos, out there.

every now and then I'm like "I want to learn a new metrics/timeseries db" ... then I start doing that and I'm like "ughhh, I've been doing this in at least 6 different ways over the last 15 years, why do it again"

I really miss Graphite

Teddybear Cholla (Cylindropuntia bigelovii) stems detach easily and can take root forming a stand of clones. Desert woodrats collect these “cholla balls” to armor their nests, creating a prickly defense against predators.
