#alder — Public Fediverse posts

A whole apothecary sitting in the wet ground at the edge of everything, and most of us walk past it.
What do you reach for when your throat's been used hard?

High in tannins: they bind iron and blunt oral medications, so leave two hours either side of anything you take on a schedule. Skip it in pregnancy or if you're anemic. And be certain of your identification — alder is not buckthorn, and buckthorn is a violent purgative. If you're eighty percent sure about the tree, buy the bark instead. #Herbalism #Herbalist #Alder #Feàrna #FolkMedicine #Foraging #Botany #Nature #Gardening #Druid #Folklore #Gàidhlig

Grey alder — Alnus incana, feàrna. For the throat that's been screaming.
Dried inner bark only, aged several months, never fresh — fresh bark will make you vomit, which is exactly why the old preparation insists on the drying. One teaspoon to a cup, simmered ten minutes, strained, cooled to warm. Gargle and spit. Good as an external wash on weepy skin and foot soaks.

Oak themed #sculpture for a friend. Made in #alder though. A really nice #wood for carving, a favourite.

Spring is in the air, it is on the ground, and it is showing up on winter deciduous trees.

This cluster shows a still leafless Himalayan Birch (Betula alnoides) full of yellow catkins, the other taller trees are Himalayan Alder (Alnus nepalensis) which have new leaves & leaf buds. The dark evergreen trees are Tree Rhododendron (Rhododendron arboreum).

Altså, nå på slutten av 40-åra må jeg vel ha blitt det. Middelaldrende.
Da kan jeg sikkert forberede meg på renessansen, kanskje til og med bli opplyst? Ikke helt sikker på om det fungerer slik, men en kan jo satse på det.

- the morning went well, as in I got up in time to have a good breakfast before midday, after which I slowed up again

- phone chats with a friend who finds my commentary hilarious

- I've sold a thing on eBay, now I just have to get out to the shop (tomorrow) to post it

Today's work. Sorry, murky low light photo, finished at sunset as usual.

Still space for more!

Can see the difference between birch and alder nicely there. The orangey stuff on the right is alder. Slightly less energy than birch but easier to light. Good firewood and what mostly grows in our forest as it thrives in the swampy parts near the river.

Those last two stacks are from a few fallen trees that were blocking the forest road.

January 26th.

Yesterday, I gained access to some branches and trunks of a black #alder tree. I cut these into manageable pieces and sealed the ends with #Anchorseal (a wax solution). These pieces are now meant to dry slowly without cracking. Eventually, I plan to turn them into items like bowls or vases on a lathe.

Taking advantage of the momentary sun to #rive some #alder for #woodworking. It's tough because Alder is so knotty I need to cut it into small portions that are between the knots. Otherwise I end up with wavy and thin splits

Alder Lake 的 SHLX 變慢的問題

看到「The Alder Lake SHLX Anomaly (tavianator.com)」這篇提到 Alder Lake (Intel 的第 12 代 CPU) 的 SHLX 變慢的問題，原文在「The Alder Lake SHLX anomaly」這邊。

Alle vi eldste søsken må la det synke inn at i våre tidligste minner om våre foreldre, er de vesentlig yngre enn vi selv er nå.

Litt som å være på første foreldremøte og skjønne at en må slutte å tenke på foreldre med småskolebarn som «de voksne».
