Product manuals and obscure part numbers would be helpful. Thanks!

What do you mainly use it for? Like, are you spending searches getting to something as simple as a Wikipedia link? Because I hate what Google search has become but it still more or less gets me what I'm looking for.

No, a home is not open to the public. It's referring to "commercial establishments". A store owner can still post a sign stating "no firearms allowed", but if they don't have one posted, you can now enter it armed.

Who is this guy and why is he trustworthy wrt Armenian politics and elections? I searched john deane o'keeffe "armenia" and got no relevant results. It looks like he's a criminology professor. wipfandstock.com/author/john-...

I don't mean to hijack this, but does anyone have experience setting up a Charity page on Venmo? I just tried to donate to my hometown's food pantry, but they only accept donations by check. I'd really like to help them make it easier to accept donations!

NYers were killing mature oak trees because they were being stripped by an outbreak of spongy moth caterpillars. The population collapsed after a year or two, numbers went back to normal – but the decades-old oak trees (that would have recovered) were gone.

Again: Tree of Heaven is the host plant and can be removed. No argument there. But no one is recommending removing native trees that are affected. I've researched this heavily since the bugs arrived in Philly, then NYC. NYC didn't remove trees, and SLF numbers plummeted anyway for a different reason

Sure, cut down all the Tree of Heaven you want; I meant she didn't need to take down her beautiful willow. That tree does a lot of good for the ecosystem. Don't panic and cut down beneficial trees that took decades to grow b/c of one bad season. Insect populations go through boom and bust cycles.

I've seen their numbers plummet since their peak 2-3 years ago. A similar thing happened to invasive spongy moth caterpillars last year. Their populations peaked the year prior, and they ended up spreading a lethal disease. They were also hit with a fungus due to early season wet weather.

You really don't have to take down trees. If the tree dies, it dies – no need to kill it preemptively. The lanternfly's host is the Tree of Heaven, but it will eat any green sappy growth it can pierce. Anecdotally, their numbers in NYC are down to a tiny fraction compared to two years ago.

They're wrong about that, too. The r/YouTube subreddit moderators took the post down; YouTube itself didn't do anything.

The issue is that they're doing the same heroic job but getting paid basically nothing for it, which is fucked up.

They also have to respect the opinion of the source(s). Care alone isn't enough.

Makes sense! In that case – and sorry if I'm telling you something you already know –you could plug a small heater into something like a $35 Inkbird ITC-308 thermostat (provided it's under 10A). Set the temperature range, throw the whole setup into a big clear plastic tub, and you're set!
