You must be confused, or perhaps you’re not talking about the same species that I am thinking about. Huckleberries, genus Gaylussacia, are definitely in the same family as blueberries, Vaccinium. They’re both Ericaceae, in the subfamily Vaccinioideae. Gaylussacia is definitely not in Solanaceae.

Two species of blueberry as well as cranberry grow natively in a few bog habitats near my home, and huckleberries are also sympatric with these species.

ETA: I saw some context from other comments in this chain that somebody else already beat me to this. I, too, didn’t realize that there were, if you were, “false” huckleberries in the nightshade family.

To add to both of our shared confusion, there is even a false huckleberry from within the blueberry family, but instead the Ericoideae subfamily: https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/553849-Rhododendron-menziesii. I have no experience with this plant, or even really this subfamily, as it isn’t exactly endemic to my neck of the woods.

FLAC isn’t too bad on disc space.

There isn’t any. Just the typical 14 year olds railing on about the same ten commie phrases as if it was ever funny. Looking forward to more diverse meme communities coming to Lemmy so I can block the communist stupid.

I imagine that a floss pick is better than nothing, but string floss is the best way to go about it. Proper flossing technique requires you to be able to have a small amount of slack so that the floss can wrap around the contour of your tooth and slide past the “triangle” between your teeth. The floss picks are too taut to be able to do that adequately.

I’ll also say that I completely agree with OP: picking up a good flossing regiment helped my mouth health immensely. It also helped improve my gum health and made my teeth feel “tighter” in my mouth, not like they were always a little bit loose.

Same, my 90s HP is a damn tank and it accepts knockoff toner carts.

I’m so rich, the majority of my cooking is with ghee!

I accidentally came upon this same system messing around during long periods of boredom, and now I do all my counting this way. I also include the base joint of each finger so I can count 4 per digit

1 2 3 4 | 5 6 7 8 | 9 10 11 12 | 13 14 15 16

I’m wearin’ myself a T-shirt That says “The world is my ashtray” Our hearts pump dust And our hair’s all gray And I just got a message that says “Yeah, hell has frozen over” I got a phone call from the Lord sayin’ “Hey, boy, get a sweater, right now!”

When I took Vyvanse I couldn’t eat grapefruit. It made me throw up and then I developed an aversion to it, and even now almost a decade since I stopped taking it I still really dislike grapefruit. I’m not sure if it’s because of the citric acid content or what else, but oranges didn’t ever bother me in that way.

Looks like it’s a species of meadowhawk, this one is called either a red-veined darter or a nomad (Sympetrum fonscolombii). Great pic! Dragonflies are a lot of fun and a great challenge to photograph.

In the meantime I’ve migrated over to Connect for Lemmy on Android, and it is working significantly better than Jerboa did.

I’ve been rocking OLauncher for a few months now, I love it. Cutting down the extra noise on my home screen felt good.

Oh my god if JDL made Sync for Lemmy I would buy it yesterday. I was a Sync Dev user for like 5 years, such a great app and the developer is amazing.

Incredible specimen

I’ve always joked with my coworkers that I’m so efficient because I’m lazy as hell. Why cut one piece of trim at a time when you can build a jig that allows you to cut 5 at once?

The upside: I look like a wizard with all the work I can get done and nobody wants to do my job, so I have plenty of security.

The downside: I get a lot of extra work and I can feel burnt out sometimes.

I’m a guy with extremely curly, long hair (about 20"). I use goat milk soap and it’s been fantastic for my hair health. Before that I used the brand “Pattern”, which I also liked but it was very expensive.

Reddit.

That’s great that you were able to enjoy them. I heard that the fruits can be incredibly astringent, so it’s nice that the ones you found were good. Living in the Midwest, there are a great deal of opportunities for foraging. I’ll have to post here with my findings as the summer continues on.

That’s nice, what region were you in? I apparently live on the northern boundary of where it is commonly sited (according to iNaturalist), and I don’t believe I’ve seen one before.
