rjthyen , to mildlyinteresting in One of the heads of garlic I grew turned out to be just one solid clove

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but a garlic plant grows some form of a “seed” head, that will have miniature round bulbs in it if they aren’t clipped off that, it’s my understanding, when they are planted they’ll grow like this in the first year and into a normal garlic bulb year two. I’ve never experimented enough to know if I’m correct, but if my info is correct I’d guess either one of those got mixed in by mistake, or if your planting in the same spot as the year prior one might’ve just fallen off.

feedum_sneedson ,

bulbils

not always, but yes

this is a mutation though, and I’ve seen this kind of “single clove” garlic in the shops

DinosaurSr ,

I got one of those this year. I grow hard neck and must have missed the scape on this one. https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/cf99f9b1-377f-49e6-afe6-a15a5cca3b9c.jpeg

The bulb and the “seed head”(?) in the pic are the same plant, just bent in half so both are visible

rjthyen ,

Missed the whole scape not just one individual bulb I’m guessing? My brain was struggling to piece together what i was looking at lol

DinosaurSr ,

Haha yeah sorry that’s a bad pic. The scape is the curly thing that grows off the top of the plant in the spring, and then and flowers. If you’re growing garlic, you’d normally cut the scape so that the plant puts more energy into the bulb instead of the flower. Here’s a pic of the whole thing: https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/c691f28f-cea1-486c-88ce-df385e0be817.jpeg

Now I want to know what the issue was.

And the “solution”.

jaybone ,

Yeah I’m having a hard time imagining what this could even possibly be about.

HowManyNimons ,

Sounds like the boss wanted a grid layout of some kind. Honestly, if they can express themselves in Excel, and they can be made to understand the limitations of responsive Web design, then it’s not so bad. At least it’s a requirement and you don’t have to guess.

I have used Excel to make tags from a table before. Usually just for one off stuff and before I was very familiar with JavaScript.

E.g. if you have a table of 100 urls you could use excel to easily turn them into a tags using the various text formulas like concat.

It’s probably never the best tool for the job but sometimes I’ll do stuff in Excel just because I’m very familiar with it.

To clarify I am not a programmer by trade lol

computergeek125 ,

I saw a meme somewhere along the line that Excel is the third best tool for every job.

thevoidzero ,

You know how people say “Devil you know is better than God you don’t”?

Excel is that Devil people know. It’s not the best tool for a lot of stuffs but it let’s people do things.

I saw a co-worker generate sequence for formula in excel for another cell in excel. They wanted to do average of all January data, instead of averageif/sumif/countif etc, they generated a sequence a1+a13+a25… And used excels’ drag down thing to make the formula. I’m like who could even verify it.

Eva is fantastic now that the rebuilds actually have a somewhat uplifting ending that gives perfect closure. I detested Eva for many years but my mind was changed by the rebuilds

MeatsOfRage ,

I’ve wanted to try Evangelion but I have no idea what’s the right way to watch it 😂

camr_on ,
@camr_on@lemmy.world avatar

Just watch it through, or the way like from that pic. End of Evangelion is an alternate version of episodes 25 and 26, and the rebuild movies are meant to be watched afterwards

sheogorath ,

Not necessarily an alternate version. The End movies shows >!what’s happening outside of Shinji’s psyche.!<

camr_on ,
@camr_on@lemmy.world avatar

Oh yeah it’s way more complicated. I just didn’t want to dump it on this unsuspecting soul before they’re ready lol

Amir ,
@Amir@lemmy.ml avatar

In the original episodes, Shinji accepts the instrumentality project. In EoE he rejects it. Very significant difference

Zozano ,
@Zozano@lemy.lol avatar

It doesn’t matter what order you watch it your first time around, you’re not going to understand what the fuck is going on unless you watch a five hour video essay anyway.

chatokun ,

Evangelion is sorta important culturally and historically in anime, but honestly I wouldn’t call it good, even though it was one of the early ones I grew up on (along with Ranma 1/2 and Rurouni Kenshin).

shatteredsword ,

Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?

Theharpyeagle ,

I have the opposite experience, I only watched it a couple years ago and thought the hype would totally kill it for me, but I actually ended up really enjoying it and EoE in particular stuck with me. I loved the idea that love is born of the risk we take of truly being known by other people.

I will say that the quality of the Netflix dub probably helped a lot. I know they changed some translations which kinda sucks, but overall the voice acting is so much better. No hate to Spike Spencer, he’s obviously a very prolific voice actor, but I think his performance of Shinji is at least part of why people thought he was so whiny. We were originally going to watch through the rebuild movies dubbed, too, but it was so bad we decided to switch to sub.

derpgon ,

Fate/Stay Confused

EnderMB ,

Evangelion is an experience. As others have said, I wouldn’t even bother trying to find the best way to consume it, just watch, and revisit once you get over the initial “wtf was that” feeling.

Theharpyeagle , (edited )

I wouldn’t bother with anything weird, just watch the series through and then the movies in release order. It might not be “optimal” but I don’t think it needs to be. You can skip Death, though, since it’s just a recap (there was originally a year between the end of the series and EoE)

emergencyfood ,
  • Original series (all 26 episodes)
  • End of Evangelion (optional, but recommended. This happens chronologically at the same time as Ep 25 and 26)
  • Everything else (optional, not recommended)

The OG series is the story Anno wanted to show. Some fans wanted a more concrete ending, so Anno gave them a concrete ending in EoE. Then some fans wanted a happy ending where Shinji gets the girl so Anno said fuck it, sold out, and made a series with a happy ending where Shinji gets a girl. But now some fans want a happy ending where Shinji gets the right girl so Anno gave up on them as lost causes and went and directed Shin Godzilla.

erev ,
@erev@lemmy.world avatar

I disagree. There’s a YouTube video essay series that breaks down the timelines and I really like their interpretation. Each Eva is the story Anno wanted to tell at each point in his life, as he grew and became a healthier person. Anno wanted the darkness when he was younger. Anno wanted the hope as he got older. I’ve watched all the Evas and I think I actually like the rebuilds more.

emergencyfood ,

Each Eva is the story Anno wanted to tell at each point in his life, as he grew and became a healthier person.

Sounds like something someone who sold out would say! (/s)

Anno wanted the darkness when he was younger

I still like the OG ending. I think the ‘darkness’ of EoE was partially a reaction to the death threats he got, and the Rebuilds feel unnecessarily convoluted (but the animation was great). Anyway, to each their own.

MonkderVierte , (edited )

First follow one of the flowcharts to figure out if Eva is for you tho.

They should have to display cute lil nicknames beneath the driver’s side window, like fighter pilots.

Unlike fighter pilots, the nicknames should be community generated.

Hopefully someone will eventually do a higher quality scan of it so people can at least print it for themselves on a large format printer.

Ok… I have found that many, if not all of the issues of Star Trek Communicator (where this was also printed) have been scanned into archive.org. There’s well over 100 of them, so I’m not going looking for it, but maybe someone else will want to take that on. Just search for “star trek communicator site:archive.org” if you’re using Google. Not sure about other search engines.

TotallyNotSpezUpload ,

Thank you, I’ll do a proper research this week. :)

Kedly , to lemmyshitpost in 6/10 sandler supremacy

What do the right and left have to do with each other aside from being in the same meme together?

Donkter ,

I don’t know any of the anime but my best guess is that the anime are in the same genre of as the Adam Sandler movies to their left. The idea is that Adam Sandler movies are full of sex “jokes” but the anime is the only one that gets dismissed for that.

It doesn’t make too much sense. I mean, the meme defeats itself as all the anime covers have little girls on them and I’ve seen enough anime to know what sort of sex “jokes” the animes make compared to the Adam Sandler movies. Maybe the meme is self aware of that idk.

Kedly ,

Thats a better attempt at understanding the meme than I had!
