Ladybugs rescued my plants this summer! I actually ordered 20 of them to get rid of aphids (and the ants which came with them). They took a week, then everything alive was eaten. They actually took up a fight with the ants. There were some casualties, but apparently the ladybugs won.
Felt a bit silly to order bugs in the mail, but collecting them took ages and one looks ridiculous hunting for ladybugs in the park.

I just remove leftover food which could get stuck in the filter and put it in. No prewashing required, things come out clean 99% of the time. Done this with very old and very new machines. Not sure why this is not working for everyone.

It’s really the most annoying thing. Spotlight was so trustworthy and now I can’t find shit. Half of the time it can’t even find applications I know I have installed. I guess time to switch to Linux, but Asahi is not really finished yet, and I just hate how the trackpad feels on Linux installations.
