correct horse battery staple?

It’s good for sure. Trader Joes’ wavy ramen is also made by A-sha and is a little cheaper.

Any packaged ramen can be improved with a soft steamed egg, a few greens, and a bit of chili oil though.

I’m new to the fediverse and chose to join Beehaw because the community interactions feel positive like an active private forum that I’m on, but with the structural flexibility of a federated platform.

There is definitely a tone change between local communities and the outside federated feed, but I worry that secession and isolation will lead to community atrophy— it’s already a small instance and without the cross-pollination of outside users and content it may not have enough momentum to succeed

I have a Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster from the 1960s. It’s an elegant, automatic design with only one control for the amount of toast. If it had slots wide enough for bagels it would be perfect.

not sure if Buster Bluth or Hulk Hogan

ICYMI (in case you missed it) and IYKYK (if you know, you know) which frequently get crossed in my head

The motion sensor detected the presence of a human and paused its activity in an attempt to remain covert.

If I can ask a noob question in this highly philosophical and technical thread— what’s your intended client experience for Beehaw? I’m using Voyager on iOS and will be sad to lose it if Beehaw migrates (or even doesn’t migrate to v19), though there may be a similar client for one of the other platforms under consideration.

Surely y’all aren’t all using a web front end, right? It seems there may be value in choosing a platform that has community support for clients as well as mod tools.

There’s a lot to unpack in this issue, but it frustrates me that there has been such effective opposition to providing wiring and circuits to support possible future electric appliances and EVs. I can argue for either side of restricting gas appliances, but as the article notes the electrical upgrades would be trivial additions to the cost of new construction or significant costs if added later. If you choose not to use the 240V circuit for a range, dryer, water heater, or EV charger… just don’t use it and it doesn’t hurt you

There are great recommendations already in this thread, so I’ll add one for Jason Isbell. Formerly of Drive-by Truckers, Southeastern is a good place to start with his solo work.

Really enjoyable article, thanks! I love Rosecrans Baldwin.

Then they need to make energy credits and rebates available to more than just the lowest-income residents. Right now in California many homeowners are ineligible for these programs due to the income that enables them to own in the first place.

JDownloader works on yt I believe, and it also parses HLS. you can set it to auto import from the clipboard as well, so just copy a url and it adds it to the queue

Noisome means smelly, not noisy.

enormity means serious or grave, not very large.

terrific isn’t always great or amazing; it can be synonymous with terrifying.

Even during the ‘open’ Obama years, tourism for Americans was severely limited by the lack of banking interchange between US banks and Cuban ATMs and credit card networks. You have to bring cash and use a currency exchange, and if you run out you have no way of getting more money from your American bank. Other countries’ networks don’t have this issue, but it would need to be fixed for Americans to visit and spend money.

I’m glad the internal currencies of CUC vs CUP have been resolved, though a massive influx of tourist dollars would strain the existing economic systems of Cubans being paid for jobs other than tourism.

I would love this— it would let users browse and interact beyond their instance without the full deluge of the All feed.

Magnolia Electric Co - The Dark Don’t Hide It or Just Be Simple

Mogwai - Helicon 2

Broken Social Scene - Lovers Spit

That whole Offerings album is amazing and fits this theme.

I have to add Anthems by Broken Social Scene, it feels like nostalgia for an adolescence I didn’t get.

I’ll look for that but not sure we get it in the colonies.

What luminosity sensors are you using? I’m interested in automatic daylight harvesting but need a good sensor to provide the sunlight input.

Remote work really helps, physically placing myself in an office space I control without interruptions from coworkers. It makes breaks easier too and helps refocus ir change gears.

It’s also helpful to block time on my calendar for lunch each day so I not only don’t get booked during that time but get the reminder pop up to stop what I’m doing.

It would shed rain off the low end? Can you use a gutter and downspout?

I agree, and it is so difficult to find flavourful decafs with a bright, light roast profile.

My house does a lot of Negroni variations. I will often swap the Campari for Ramazzotti or Cappelletti to dial down the bitterness and add some herbal notes. Also works great as a Boulevardier or with mezcal.

Does it work better than the slsknet.org client?

Any reason the high side of the shed roof can’t intercept the existing garage roof further up the pitch? Then you could use open web trusses which although deeper are lighter and potentially cheaper than a wide flange. Attaching them higher also gives you more clear height with a longer span.

jDownloader might do this automatically if given the video url.

Oh I could go for a 5 gallon keg of seltzer that stays carbonated… how difficult is this to set up?
