Italian vinaigrette + sous vide
EU should tariff the shit out of our exports and buy Ukrainian grain instead of American products.
The concept of “throwing the baby out with the bathwater”
There’s no nuance from the left. The left polices itself like the radical right thinks they (the party of law and order) do.
Had a podcaster get dropped by their long time partner because there were lewd text messages sent.
I’m tired of the reactionary bullshit, currently Dawkins and Gaiman are being dropped, and I understand not wanting to associate/support Dawkins’ current views, the guy wrote very persuasive works that shouldn’t lose value because he lost his empathy.
I still read and enjoy enders game despite knowing what a tool Card turned into, how is it so difficult to separate art from the artist?
Same here!! Why don’t they dim with the rest of the dashboard lights??
It’s almost to the point I’m putting some electrical tape over them. Can’t wait to have a car with self dimming lights, then I’ll tape over it and keep them toggled on forever without worries
Not being able to see at night when the lights turn off
Injuries take longer to recover from
Headlights in the opposite direction cause troubles
Dashboard indicators (like high beams) are much brighter, annoyingly so.
You can observe the chirality of some molecules from the crystals they form, sometimes they twist clockwise, other times they twist counter clockwise. Which way they twist is dependent on their molecular structure.
Doesn’t hurt to talk to someone about it, maybe you’ve aged out of it, maybe it’s slowly manifesting itself in a different way, there are professionals that can tell the difference.
Nobody is going to hold a young adult accountable for minor things they did as a child, especially not a psychiatrist. It’s better to get checked when you have the awareness that something night not have been right, because when things are very wrong you won’t have the desire to get checked.
Yours is the first post I’ve seen (using sync) that has over 100% upkicks.
Congratulations for breaking the system!
In theory it keeps your business card elevated / near the top, and has more volume to be grabbed from.
I’ve only done it the one time (genuinely), maybe they were giving cookware to everyone from that morning as a show of appreciation or to make them feel special, maybe it was just luck of the draw and I’m batting 1000 in business card raffles, maybe I’m only remembering my successes (I don’t think I am), or maybe it actually worked? The mystery of 100% success makes for the better story, so I deliberately stopped the practice.
(Also I have a way to always walk out of a casino with more money than you walked in with, not significant life changing amounts of money, but enough for dinner and drinks, but I like to tell people (genuinely) I’ve never walked out of a casino with less than I walked in with, the trick is to go to the concierge desk, tell them it’s your first time there, give them your name and address as verification it’s your first time there, they’ll give you house money, ever time you hit take the money out (it takes from your winnings before taking from the house money), at the end of the night compare how much you walked away with from how much house money they gave you, and that’s how much you’d have been down of your own money, my best is about 90% of the house money I put in as cash in my pocket, me and 3 friends did this and walked out with 150$ from nothing but a little time invested, the “real” gamblers hated being behind us as we checked out dozens of winning slips each)
My wife and I did part of our gift registry at ‘crate and barrel’, they had a business card pot to have a drawing from for some cookware, I had just gotten my first business cards, and remembered a tip I’d read about bending/creasing the business card in half before dropping it in. I tried it and we won a 4 quart ‘le cruset’ sauce pot. It’s the most expensive piece of cookware we have, and it’s amazing. I haven’t used that trick since then, partially out of guilt, partially out of being 1 for 1 on business card draws.
“whatever you do don’t forget to check the big tab is on the left and the little tab is on the right, even if you get it backwards it won’t close as a safety precaution.”
Gets call of machine not working in another country, sends out consultant.
Big tab is on the right, little tab is on the left and the entire tray has been forced into position because “it wasn’t closing properly so we had to apply a lot of force”
Professionals with confidence are the absolute worst, I tell ever consultant or technician that comes into my lab “I’ll be in the corner if you need me to grab you any supplies or coffee, do you mind if I ask questions as you go so I can have a better understanding of what’s going on with this magical box”. I like to think they appreciate me.
Sure is nice having such warm water ports like we do
Octopodes* plural of octopus (octo is Greek root, odes is Greek root plural)
Go ahead and negative this comment, same as last time a marine biologist called bullshit on a Maine biology comic needing some correction.
Count it outer clockwise
Crank it right in?
Did you run the line under ground or through conduit? Disconnect it from both sides, attach string/fishing line to one side, pull cable out of conduit on the side without the string attached. Detach string from either meet cable, reattach string with Ethernet cable and the additional cable (speaker cable in this case), pull string from the original side until both cables make their appearance.
Outside of walkie talkies (have you considered walkie talkie? Maybe put an antenna outside of the shop?) this is the simplest way to do it (imo, but I don’t play with raspberry pi’s)
It’s literally speaker wire, or you could clip the ends of your Ethernet and use those (but you probably want your Ethernet out there still XD. One side will be to be run to power, but it’ll power the rest of the stations through the wire.
I feel like this is definitely what you’re looking for, no computers required.
From Amazon, I found “IS543 5/4/3 WIRE INTERCOM STAT-PLAST”
It’s similar to what we had growing up, 1 in the shed, 1 in the kitchen 1 in the game room, push the button of the location you wanted to talk to, only 1 direction of communication at a time, over.
I feel like you’re making it way more complicated than it needs to be, why would you involve a switch or processor when you’re just carrying sound waves? You don’t even need a modulator, it just needs to connect a microphone to a speaker like cans on a string. Is it the highest quality? No, will it record your conversation for posterity? Also no. Will it let you tell at someone to get their asses in for dinner, absolutely
You’ve already run wires, why not a microphone and speaker system?
Here’s my tip, for Lemmy hopefully it will never get so popular as to not work any more.
Answer the phone for unknown numbers, don’t say a g-d thing, just listen. Let them address you first.
If they ask for you by name go ahead and respond, if they call back answer with a generic “hi” greeting, don’t let them have your voice or name before you know who they are and what their business is.
A robot will mark your number as a “dead line” and not call you again.
A person will either be trying to reach you (and know who you are) or trying to reach a living person, and not waste their time with an unresponsive line.
