so did you actually add them to the list?

(very much not trying to throw shade 😂)

😂 it was too easy

hey, I’m being more of an asshole because you’re being an asshole, and I thought it’d be funny to reply to you saying nobody cares because it seems like you care

does your manual say to drive “extremely slow” or does it say to keep the RPMs down and go easy on the throttle for a few minutes? because those are very different things and I’d give you my rebuttal to your points if you’re open to debating without being assholes to eachother

and if not, I’m not dying on this hill

Dude, nobody cares, shut up.

if you can’t read your owners manual there’s probably adult education classes in your area

have you actually read your owners manual?

this isn’t worth fighting some rando on the internet over. nothing I say I going to change your mind, and that’s fine, not my car not my problem.

for others that see these arguments - don’t listen to the armchair mechanics online, read your car’s fucking manual. typically the goal is to get your car to operating temp as fast as possible, and most modern cars are designed to heat up as fast as possible under motion. heating your car at idle takes forever and spends more time operating with parts not at their optimal tolerance.

but don’t just listen to me, read your car’s manual.

What makes you say that?

I’m in no way here to defend blue orgin, but the capsule does apogee “just above 100km”. It’s pretty clear getting above the karman line was their main goal.

If we’re gonna throw shade we gotta be accurate. Lets make fun of them for being suborbital and for making the most phallic launch vehicle ever.

what? all of these work on plex for me:

-server hardware accel transcoding (are you talking about something else?)

-HDR playback works fine for me…

-I can download just fine from a browser or the plex app, when remote

my 1997 honda has frameless doors without needing an electronic door opener, or rolling the window down 🤷

and I will wash zero other dishes while procrastinating a single big item 🙃

this might not be helpful as most folks rent - but my adhd brain hates double basin sinks, replacing mine with one big basin was one of the biggest improvements in my kitchen

I will procrastinate washing a big item like a sheet pan for a month with a double basin sink

halp

lol unprecedented? The entire country of LA would not exist without the early-LA government buying up water rights in the eastern sierras to pipe to LA, and then telling the local farmers there they were shit outta luck the first time drought hit.

If anyone is interested in Western US water rights - Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner is a great book. I usually recommend at least the first quarter of it, as it gets pretty dry and repetitive in the second half. But the first couple chapters talk about the first expedition down the Colorado River and early water rights, which was super interesting. Second half of the book mostly goes over large water projects like dams and aquaducts.

…what are you even talking about? “better” lighting is completely subjective, I am happy with what my lights do and they are already LED, so there is no more efficient way to get the effects that I prefer.

It’s ok if you prefer different things, but you’re just crapping on other people’s subjective preferences as if your preference is the only right answer.

I’m guessing you’re getting down voted by all of us that want light to be reflected/diffused off the ceiling, and actively own LED versions of this lamp.

These exist, they make LED versions of this. I have 3 of them because I’m too lazy to crawl into the attic and install better lighting in the ceiling itself.

basic astronomical observations

No, this is not basic. I should really not engage with a troll, but for anyone else curious about why this is cool:

Current estimates on the size of the sun are on the order of ±1000km. “Wright said different papers using a variety of methods have produced results that differ by as much as 930 miles (1,500 km)”

This request for cell phone observations is trying to do some wild math way out of my comprehension, based on the flashes of light shining between mountains and valleys on the moon, to calculate the size of the sun down to single-digit kilometer accuracy. That’s three orders of magnitude more accurate than our current measurements. And this type of measurement can only happen during an eclipse.

To me that is absolutely wild, good job NASA 🚀

Earth’s natural satellite can serve as a valuable research partner in measuring the sun’s oblateness. This is due to a phenomenon known as “Baily’s beads,” which are the tiny flashes of light during an eclipse that occur as solar light passes over the moon’s rugged terrain of craters, hills, and valleys. Since satellite imagery has helped produce extremely detailed mappings of lunar topography, experts can match Baily’s beads to the moon’s features as it passes in front of the sun.

The way I’m guessing this works is: Baily’s beads will be detectable on shitty cameras since they will be distinct flashes of light, and since we have very detailed information of the moon’s topography they can determine information on the sun based on your phone’s location and the timing of the flashes of light.

And if that is how it works, that is fuckin rad. A+ science.

They really don’t have to be bigger and heavier. I have a Pantum P2502w laser printer and it is seriously one of the smallest printers I’ve ever owned including inkjets. I feel like laser printers always default to paper storage being underneath them instead of having a feeder tray that sticks out further from the body? And that puts them into a larger form factor.

That being said, I’m fairly sure this is a much lighter duty laser printer than other heavier ones.

Also this is not really an endorsement for Pantum, the software and firmware are buggy as hell, but the software isn’t bad enough for me to throw it out and the hardware will probably last a decade so good luck to me.

Butcher Block Cafe has outstanding cinnamon rolls. It’s my favorite place when I’m craving a diner breakfast. If you’re looking for a fancy bakery or Snooze level breakfast - you will be disappointed. But if you want no frills reasonably priced diner food with a top notch cinnamon roll as dessert - this is your place. https://maps.app.goo.gl/VUcL5mTQ2QZW8d3m9

Yeah our ballots had him on the list still, but I think with a mention of the pending court case.
