A half step, but in the right direction. Would love to see ranked choice voting in federal elections in my lifetime.

In salad there are no rules. Follow your dreams.

Hell yeah. Fuck Indiana!

What if those reps had a big, beautiful former ballroom to occupy? That would be pretty cool, someone should get on that.

If the router reconnects to the internet when it factory resets and it still works as a gateway, there may still be hope. You’d need some SSH host on another machine behind the router; you’d probably also need some sort of minimal VPS. You could setup a reverse SSH tunnel on the SSH host that would tunnel through the router to the VPS, then you’d be able to connect through the VPS into your network.

Honestly tho, this is a lot of work and if time is tight you might just wanna roll to a store and buy whatever cheap router you can find to limp along til you get back.

So you haven’t used it yourself and are shitting on an OS based on anecdotal evidence? "Stop making stupid assumptions”, I once heard someone say.

I use GrapheneOS and have helped other less tech-savvy people install and use it. You can just roll with the defaults and have a better privacy stance than the spyware Google puts out, or you can take a deep dive. It works just fine either way.

Interesting. I just assume every bike has the engine as a stressed member because its probably cheaper that way, but makes sense to have a full frame on a bike that’s expected to see any sort of adverse condition.

I’ve had great success using 2.5% salinity for most batches. My understanding is that 2% is about the bottom range of what’s safe. You might try salting til it tastes good, figuring out what percentage that is, and try a ferment at that salinity. If it doesn’t work you’ll know.

I think those are crash bars, not the frame.

For me, on Lemmy, it’s you.

Check out typecelerate.com. It will help identify letters, bigrams, and trigrams that you mess up or slow you down, then focuses your practice on them. Lots of settings to tweak, so adding symbols and numbers is easy to do.

Oh dang, there’s a Cheers episode where Carla refers to someone as her ”Ricardo Montalbon, draped in rich Corinthian leather". I figured there was reference I was missing but never bothered to look it up. Thank you.

I’d start with IKEA, for inspiration at the very least. A lot of their kitchen stuff is very modular, so they may have something that could fit in without too much fuss.

Homelab. Or a pantry with deep pull out shelves. Or open it up on the side of the room through that doorway and convert to a built-in bookshelf or cupboard and close it up on the kitchen side.

Dang, how do you keep all those gameboy carts from toppling over every time you launch your controller at your TV?

Edit to finish my thought after accidentally sending prematurely.

Lobster sauce sends its regards.

I used one of these on my 4" PVC drain pipe three years ago when I installed a utility sink in my basement and have not seen a drop. Unsure whether its up to code, but it is working well.

Compared to a pinetime, for example, it’s a “dumb” watch. I has a step counter and an eink screen, but thats about it. The pinetime has alarms, notifications, call answering media controls, etc. So I guess it has potential, but it falls short of what I would think most people would consider “smart”.

Watchy, while a cool product, is an eink watch with no smart features.

Do yrself the favor and cut the cord.
