Yes, that’s my understanding. So it’s more work to use than point and shoot, which would be a nice feature for someone like me who can recognize major constellations and planets, but not much else.

Planisphere is alright, it’s basic, but does the job. No nasties in it and works offline.

Tubular has sponsor block too.

Do you mean Heliboard? It supports gesture typing, but you need to import the library you want.

Duct tape of course

You can harvest the transformers for a couple junk microwaves to make an arc welder.

If you aren’t experienced then pretty much all power supplies, battery backups, and motors should be left to someone else.

I saw someone lose a finger (later reattached) to a washing machine with a jammed tub. It was plugged in and on when they reached underneath it and yanked the belt, their sleeve ducked their hand into the drive wheel.

That said, if it fits your personality it can be both fun and satisfying to learn how to fix stuff. I try to teach anyone who’s interested and asks. Except LG washing machines, those things can fuck right off.

Reddit ain’t going anywhere fast.

If r/selfhosted has to rely on reddit as it can’t be fucked selfhosting, what chance do other subs have.

I have found Lemmy selfhosted communities excellent, they are not a large as Reddit but there are plenty knowledgeable people, often seflhosting their own little reddit.

There is Open Contacts which also acts as a dialer if you want it too. It creates its own database which could be useful if you don’t want other apps to have your contacts.

It works fine, I use that or Koler

That’s true.

Do you happen to know of any countries where the allowable level of contamination is zero?

I think most of Lemmy acknowled the beauty of Linux

I knew someone would come back with something like this.

You can pretty much forget about eating the things I listed then, oh and dried pasta too.

Besides, if you don’t think you’re eating that stuff already then you haven’t looked at the USDA or FDA Food Defect Levels. There are allowable levels for fun things like insect parts and rodent droppings.

You can put whatever they have infested in the freezer for a few days, then pick them out and transfer the contents to a sealed container.

When I lived in the tropics it was quite normal to have these in flour, grains, dried legumes, dried chillies etc.

Game Changer, a stupid phrase that is so overused it has become meaningless

The red arrow in the photo points to exactly how the two pieces must be aligned

New communities pop up, and older ones that didn’t have many posts sometimes get revived. So if I have the time and inclination I look at All after my Subscribed.

They actually did that with the SimplePhone. Last time I looked the pages were down but I know I archived them on the wayback machine.

They made lots of promises, including that a downloadable ROM would be available, the whole thing quickly crashed and burned.

Reddit had some pretty extensive threads about it. The whole thing seemed like a grift (it was) and convinced me to dump all their apps.

Anyway, if this is something you want to do you could check those threads, I know people linked to the phone they were using (from Alibaba) and the source code was on Codeberg iirc.

Off the top of my head though I can’t think of any that are based on a persons name. Rod, Chain, Peck, Hogshead etc.

For me SimpleX does everything I need. Unified push would be nice, and would address battery usage. I don’t need or want message sync, so that’s not an issue.

They all have tradeoffs, so it’s just a matter of your priorities. For instance I’m OK with the higher battery drain because it’s not using Google.

For length there is a Smoot https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot

Edit: it’s 1.702 metres/ 5’7"

Is that what the whole thing is with jackfruit burgers and pulled jackfruit? They’re using the byproducts?

The one I had in my hotspot did not have a phone number attached. It was provisioned by the IMSI. This plan was cheaper than using my phone as a hotspot. I assumed that there was no phone number so you couldn’t game the system by getting this cheaper deal and popping the Sim into a phone.
