Yeah we had the bundle from a big ISP, home phone, TV, and unlimited internet and 10 email addresses. As kids moved out etc. We dumped home phone, and TV, just internet now as a bridge. I’d move to another provider but I still have 5 people using the email addresses; and for mine I’m slowly moving all my signups and bills over to another email so we can eventually make an easy switch.

I don’t have one, I do a 2 to 1 ratio of water to rice. (For basmatti) Simmer on low, covered for 13 minutes, turn off heat ( leave covered ) for 30 minutes. Then fluff with fork. Perfect every time regardless of pot size.

It’s boundaries, expectations and consistancy in consequences if they break the rules.

I get what you are saying, because a lot of those recipes were magazine ads or from the package themselves, but name brand does sometimes help.

Trying to make some recipes from the UK in North America was a challenge, because self rising flour brand Y is different than self rising flour brand X.

And if you counter with “just make your own self rising flour” Then you have to check is it Canadian Flour or American Flour, because the Canadian Flour has much higher protein and absorbs more water. And the rising agents vary.

But those “recipes” fall apart if the brand changes internal ingredients.

They carry a huge variety too.

Your average grandma is only 45 years old or less? Wow, popping out kids quick in that family. Hate to see the low end of this average

The problem with that is that the size of the pot changes the volume of water with a linear finger measure.

Like for extremes if you had a test tube shaped pot with a foot of rice deep and only a finger depth of water is way different than a giant wide pot where grains area single layer and then a finger depth over top.

Our ISP ships new routers that are admined from the cloud via a phone app. Its a disaster waiting to happen, so I told them I’m keeping my old outdated modem as a bridge and bought my own router.

Never turn on uPnP for external use, its a way to let hackers manipulate your network. It should never have existed as an option.

You could just Google his comments or listen to his podcasts he promoted violence.

Charles Kirk, the recently killed hard-right Christian nationalist, had been “repeatedly making references to physically assaulting and even lynching trans people on his podcast, the Charlie Kirk Show”.

Sometimes he targeted his violence specifically against trans. Other times, he incited violence more broadly against LGBTQ along with other minority groups.

He was using Christianity as a shield, he was a fake Christian

A job is about you and your employer (you do tasks they pay you compensation for the tasks), it is not you and your coworkers.

Do your work, go home and enjoy life outside of work. You have to stop worrying about other people, and the need for absolute fairness, life isn’t fair.

We have equality as a human rights concept, but equality does not mean the same. Men might have to lift heavy patients, women may be asked to console a sad person, senior workers may have become fixtures where they have freedoms juniors do not. Smokers might get smoke breaks.

Focus on you, and let everything else roll off you like water off a ducks back.

This takes an images and makes an STL. There are others out there like BackflipAI that does some “intelligent” destermination when converting a flat image to 3D.

The company that makes the paint version of VantaBlack licensed it only to one guy to use, the art community felt that was unfair. Thus the pink, and I think a new black etc.etc.

They sell it as a paint, however : “Controversy arose when Surrey Nanosystems granted Anish Kapoor exclusive rights to use Vantablack in artistic applications. Many artists voiced opposition to his monopoly over the substance.”

I find it good for music and film suggestions. You feed it a set of ( I want a suggestion like these ) and it provides a good result.

Also good at building mermaid code for diagrams, just tell it write me mermaid code for this, and drop in a descriptive paragraph, then copy paste the code into mermaid.live

That use case became very useful so there is a paid mermaid page to automate that manual process.

Because US feels they are more important than they actually are, and have been trying to claw back an image of being number 1; while they prove each week, by defunding education, health and science, that they have slid backwards from world leadership

Its fine if the attachment point is a Meter away

A good christian man would embrace everyone, not the bullshit he spouted

Yep a 2TB 2010 NAS drive still holding data, the spin up time is getting a bit slow and some SMART numbers show it is getting older, so moved my data to a new drive to avoid catastrophic failure.

However watch out for bit rot on old drives. I had a few images fail to load because bits had become corrupted.

A ZFS system would alert you or fix these problems
