the sensory biology of plants
  • It's an interesting hypothesis run amok because a core group of biologists WANTED it to be true so badly.

    There's a GREAT episode (ep. 425) from the In Defense of Plants podcast that covers the misinformation and misunderstanding perfectly.

  • Ok. I bought one of these three weeks ago based on this post.

    Holy shit.

    I've been a Leatherman or knife carrier most of my life. But I have reached for my new Fastback more than most multitools I've ever owned.

    In these past weeks I have:

    • Taken a fence apart to back a truck into the yard of a friend who was moving.
    • Opened several boxes that I wouldn't have needlessly dulled my knife blade on.
    • Removed the blade to scrape residue off of a window more than once.
    • Used the flathead to pry whatever small retaining clip needed persuasion.
    • Cut the end of of zip ties totally flush.

    I know not everyone will have this experience. But the disposable blade coupled with a 1/4" bit was an absolute game changer for me.

    Thanks, OP

  • I worked with a guy who wore a headlamp nearly all the time. When people would ask about it he would always tell them "There are only two reasons NOT to wear a headlamp. Either you don't have a head, or you don't have a headlamp."

    I will never forget this.
