I installed fedora to replace windows on the 31/12/2023. I wasn’t a complete Linux noob by any measure but haven’t run it as a main OS before. Thank you proton for getting me over the edge.

The whole repo situation on fedora is honestly pretty meh, things are out of date or broken too often. Or they just don’t exist. I have put arch on a number of machines since and find it significantly better. My main box will move away from fedora next time I’m enthused to mess with it and this is the primary reason.

Some interesting tidbits from one of the staff.

The actual flowers are hidden down in the base of the opening and it has both male and female flowers but cannot self pollinate.

They didn’t want to pollinate this one as they were worried the plant was not strong enough. But they will keep pollen from the male flowers to give to other gardens.

They had a bunch of Australian native relatives of this plant there too. They have a similar life cycle but are much smaller.

Rather fascinating plants. I can only wonder what makes them all want to flower at a similar time after years of dormancy.

Agreed. Have smelt far worse on the farm. We were there at 2ish and one of the staff was saying it was a lot more potent in the morning and yesterday evening.

Went to see it today. Had to book free tickets but it was accessible.

“We have film footage where we can see a wave hitting the lock and the anchor drops,”

A wave, at sea? Chance in a million.

How can we reduce paracetamol poisoning? Better access to mental health services? Nah. Let’s make them buy two boxes instead of one. That will do it.

What a joke.
