Stripping popcorn ceiling

Doesn't sound like much

These are mutually exclusive. The best case scenario for popcorn ceiling is that it's a tedious pain to remove, and it only gets worse from there (painted, asbestos, etc.)

A Plague Tale is an incredible example of what can be done with a linear design. Both Innocence and Requiem were amazing.

Open world games like the Witcher 3 leave the player with this really weird interaction with plot urgency. I'm looking for someone but just barely missed them? Hurry to the next town so I don't miss them again? But then zero consequences when I ignore that quest for twenty levels.

Can you clarify the purpose of this system? A few questions:

  1. Where is the water coming from?

  2. What is it being used for?

  3. Your diagram shows a step up in the middle, is that to suggest that the water source is below the destination?

  4. If this is collected rainwater that will be used to water plants, why does it need the pump and filter?

Potable water needs to meet much higher standards than water to wash dishes or water the garden.

The space is pretty flexible size wise. Turks cap, Gregg's mistflower, and Salvia greggii are all happily growing in the bed already and doing well. It doesn't look like anise hysop is native to my area, unfortunately. Thanks for the Texas Smartscape recommendation, their search tool is fantastic!

Yes, max pressure. My model instant pot doesn't have different pressure settings and it comes out great.

Instant pot rice:

-Wash rice several times, more if you want to avoid the rice all sticking together. Drain thoroughly after each wash.

-For rice that typically uses 2 cups of water per cup of rice, like long grain rice or basmati rice, add 1 1/4 cups (1.25 cups) of water per cup of rice.

-Pressure cook for six minutes.

-Natural release for at least ten minutes, more is also okay.

-Fluff rice before serving.

This works perfectly every time for me and is just as good as the fancy rice maker I used to have. I haven't made rice on the stove in years. Even when I was making it on the stove, it was never this good, and definitely never this consistent.

Carrots are part of the Apiacea family (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apiacea). There are quite a few poisonous/toxic species in that family, and many of the species look alike to the untrained eye.

What OP described are heirloom varieties of carrots, though, not wild carrots.

All it takes is a three second sample, according to "The AI Dilemma" on YouTube. It's about an hour long, but it has a lot of really good information.

Reddit may not even suffer if it primarily loses users that browse with third party apps or on desktop with adblock. That would be a net benefit for reddit based on average revenue per user.
