    I’m actually thankful. It’s good to know a little about the bleeding edge of science, and there presumably are people who really do understand it. The fact that I don’t, means that there are smart, passionate people out there doing the work. Not every show needs to cater to the lowest common denominator.

    Total time for loading is broken up over quite a few meals for me (usually). It also can take a little time extra if you have to do some extra drying on unloading. That said, it’s probably 20 minutes total AND uses less water AND means that I don’t have to do the majority of the work. I love my dishwasher.




  • Two big ones for me:

    1. Don’t fucking call it “desktop”. I accidentally saved some files to my “one drive desktop” and it took forever to figure out where the hell my files went.
    2. I work everywhere… my house, office, client locations etc. I’m not always connected to the internet and NEED my files to be local to my laptop or I have to get my phone out and tether a network which is sometimes slow as hell.

    One drive can eat a bag of dicks.


  • I’ve been on Signal for a while now. Have a bunch of groups but iMessage works with everyone.

    It’s been a year and a half here on Lemmy. I still spend a lot of time on Reddit, but won’t comment there anymore.

    I don’t WANT a Twitter replacement as it’s really only for celebs and idgaf.

    I actually see enough value to pay for YT premium (kids complain incessantly about ads).

    Friendica doesn’t seem to have an iOS app, and there’s a critical mass issue with wanting to connect with people that I know in real life.

    I’m trying to get my Pixelfed feed to be with checking, and trying to be a regular poster, but it’s still REALLY sparse, and none of these offer the endless meme-video-clip scroll that my wife will have to have before switching away from Insta.


  • In my junior high days (mid 80s) My friends and I found a machete in one of their dad’s stuff. We spent a weekend bushwhacking paths around some city-owned but undeveloped land near a lake. We ended up wearing them down pretty good into bike paths with some jumps and cool whoops. A few years later, the city turned it into a park and paved our paths.


  • So, this is somewhat of an irksome idea to me. My stainless steel pans would also be just fine buried in dirt for years, and you could just scrub them with heavy steel wool and or toss them in your dishwasher with no problem. Likely the same for ceramic. This isn’t the flex that most cast iron folks think it is. Note that I have a couple very nice cast iron pans that I love, but they certainly are more of a pain to use. I’ve never cracked a steel pan, but I have tried to rinse a cast too quickly and it was gone for good.
