Surprise! The creek is full of blood sucking leeches!

You have social media addiction, but there is only enough new content to support 20 minutes of doom scrolling every evening

Modern “libertarianism” has been fully corrupted by both corporations (to mean “liberty from any and all government regulations”) and by the racist shithole fascists (to mean “my liberty to commit hate crimes and no liberty for everyone else”). It sucks because I mostly agree with the tagline, but people like Friedman are far too altruistic about how well corporations (and other individuals) can operate without some level of government oversight to keep them actually accountable to the individuals that libertarianism is supposed to uphold.

Also, this is a PSA that you should sharpen your shovel. Makes digging way easier.

A shovel with the sides of it sharpened via angle grinder works wonders for chopping tall weeds too. Swing that mf like a baseball bat.

Not even unreasonable. Straight up hostage. I’d you post a wiki to their site thry effectively own it, and if you try to close it they will simply steal control of it and refuse to delete it under any circumstances to continue serving ad revenue. Which is what happened to fucking Mojang with the Minecraft wiki.

LPT use the Indiebuddy wiki to purge all Fandom links out of your browser and replace them with the correct indie wiki.

I haven’t kept close track for a year so I think it’s gone up again but my shared bill in Oregon typically was around $250 at I think ~14-15c/kwh. A majority of our power comes from the BPA hydro dams on the Columbia so the cost hasn’t quite skyrocketed like other areas, but Pacificorp is still trying to raise rates 20% a year.

(We are rural and also use electricity for pumping water from a domestic well, and irrigate a fairly large lawn as a wildfire break, so that is also our water bill.)

PG&E is just criminal.

Elemental silver SD card casing for maximum thermal transfer, when???

Human rights are not a compromise. I will not even entertain the idea of compromising those. Abortion rights stay.

Gun control is an iffy one. It really should be fixed, but it will take decades of continuing reforms and filtering firearms out of the market to really get it to where it should be. On a short term basis, “compromising” (but not giving up) on this would be OK.

Climate change will obviously just kill us all, soooo…

In a keep two, give one scenario to shut Republicans up for an election cycle, it would be safe to compromise on gun control in exchange for cementing proper human rights and getting meaningful climate action.

Yes, stainless is “bad”, compared to other metals. But like you also mentioned, it’s loads better than plastic.

I’d doubt they make an aluminum one, it’s probably not worth the tooling.

When dealing with only 100-200mW, even a small change in thermal conductivity will make a big difference.

Unironically a good idea. I can see these really helping to increase the chances of memory survival in camera applications where the camera has a high chance of being physically destroyed. Also a metal body reallllly helps conduct heat out of the flash, which will increase their lifespan in continuous-write applications.

…$200 is way too low for what most people spend on that stuff.

I bought a $35 battery pack that has enough to get me at least one full charge, and I never worry about this anymore.

heavens, forgive me for intruding upon your intellectual turf 🙇

i’d think at this point it’s been proven that any resource, small or large, can and will be compromised. Proton so far has had a better track record than many.

I was referencing the “no linux app” complaint. Yes the rest of the stuff is pretty fluffy, but it at least looks good to the general public who might be shopping.

Proton AG is also a pretty small company and has not a lot of programming resources, can’t expect them to magically support everything immediately when their goal is getting marketshare.

Shit Post. A post that is shit, with a space in the middle! Not that it is made of shit…

that’s not a shit post, the post appears quite solid to me
