Trees and interesting behaviour - crown shyness
« on: Sat, 30 December 2023, 15:07:07 »
I love trees, I really do, love to be in a woods, watch the trees, take photos of them, hug them as well :)

Anyway! I noticed it years ago and just recently it was bugging me so much I had to look up and found out I was right!

Apparently, some of the trees species has this weird behaviour called crown shyness - their canopies do not touch each other, tend not to grow wide enough to touch other trees' branches.

Most of the time between same species, but also between different kinds too.

Have you guys notice it?

I keep checking it every time I'm in a park or woods and yeah, looks like it.

Cool :)

Trees are connected to earth's largest neural network via the Mycelium in the soil.

They are a processing/ data node of the planet. The system as a whole is highly conscious, perhaps even in super-natural terms (relative to humans).

That's such a pretty image, evolution in nature is so interesting.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

stock, needs a cleaning and probably replacement foam. Do plan to change layout so it has split bs and rs, as well as ansi enter.

Built with new nixies on pc half plate. Love this board already, probably the best looking board I own, those brass accents are so mint. Really like it as is, but I do want to try an alu build (probably with nixies as well) just to experiment with that.
