Re: Cool Stuff
tldr; People are stupid and can't be trusted to drive safely. I believe that autonomous cars will definitely be a think eventually. However, I've been a little underwhelmed so far... some of the videos of autonomous failures are pretty insane. Still, some day! I enjoy driving from time to time, but it'd be nice if I could opt to not drive.

Re: Cool Stuff
I garden. We raised tomatoes, potatoes, various peppers, all kinds of crap. That makes me really old I think.

Re: Cool Stuff
Ha - im getting there. Gardening is good fun, although I’ve not yet taken to growing produce. Just growing flowers from seed. Went a bit crazy last year and did cosmos, dahlia, petunia, lupin, acquilegia etc.
Last month I planted bulbs for spring that I dug up from last summer. Mainly daffodil and hyacinth.
I think for next spring / summer I will try mainly nemesia

Re: Cool Stuff
Yea, we did some flowers as well, though the main reason was to attract pollinators for our crops. We planted Zinia, sunflower, marigold, irises, borage, and a few others. Regarding crops, I actually have a ghost pepper plant growing my kitchen. I'll let you know (and probably takes pictures) if it creates peppers.

Re: Cool Stuff
Trying to make some home cooked pepper spray? hah we are more looking forward to the pics where you're crying like a baby after eating one of those. If i'm not mistaken that is one of the most spiciest peppers.

Re: Cool Stuff
Yea, it's insanely spicy. I bought some smoked ghost pepper powder on amazon. Just a light sprinkle is enough to add some serious burn to anything. You really have to be careful with that stuff.

Re: Cool Stuff
I draw the line at regular jalapeño. That one my insides can handle with the usual dragon/rocket outcome.

Re: Cool Stuff
oh yea, you would not like ghost peppers. I can eat jalapenos straight, though the hotter end of that spectrum can make me uncomfortable. Cooked jalapeno is no big deal. Habaneros I can deal with ok, but they're way hotter than jalapenos. We grew some vampire peppers this year in our garden... I was expecting them to be mild so I ate one right off the branch. Whooo... big mistake.

Re: Cool Stuff
Considering you're the only CK guy I've met, I think we've got that covered. I'm totally game though, once this stupid pandemic is over with. It is pretty crazy though... we're all growing old together. Except Ox. He'll always be immature.

Re: Cool Stuff
Haha yes indeed. I kinda feel like we should have seen it coming that we'd be getting older. When you're driving 120 km/h on the Autobahn and a guy passes you going three times as fast as you...
