Seems to be the AskLemmy community, and you've already found us!
Just kidding. Also curious about AMA community.
Just kidding again. Not really.
Hey, what's up?

It's a distinction without a difference, I guess.

Plus 1 for a refurb or gently used Dell Latitude series. My daily beater for the last 5 or 6 years has been a pre-2020 Dell Latitude 7390 13". Works really well with the *bian distros I've run on it, decent battery life, OK mic and speakers.
I've had to replace the battery once, and the keyboard once (which I damaged myself by applying a small amount of Coca Cola).
Refurb ThinkPads are also great, but they have a high resale value.

Stone of Flock is just as useful for disarming traps. It even handles Grim and Disintegration traps effectively.

Really it was Dec 21 2012 when MIT researchers observed Herbertsmithite exhibiting a quantum spin liquid behavior, and observing a new kind of magnetism for the first time. The observation caused a cascade of quantum probabilities to collapse, wherein our timeline has begun to "zipper" with the timeline for a quantum lineage of opposing spins. The two timelines will annihilate each other at the end of the Unixtime Epoch on Jan 19 2038 at 03:14:47 UTC.
This was communicated to me by the Enonoki who built Gobekle Tepe. They telepathically influenced the jitter in my screen refresh rate and metasyntactically programmed the information into my RNA, to be unlocked as a core memory by Wifi 6 resonance.

Helene wrecked some shit, y'all.
Possible replay this weekend, too. Laugh all you like about 'climate change.' Storms like this the were "the nightmare scenario" 20 years ago during OEM planning exercises. Katrina & Sandy were both still hypothetical. Now we also have Helene.
Yes, it's getting worse. No, there's nowhere to move that's safe.

Hi!
I'm OK, mostly.
Had some good Chinese takeaway tonight, which was a treat. Ate that while watching my countrymen descend into some kind of froth for dystopic, authoritarian autocracy. That's kind of a bummer.
I abide. Trying to, anyway
For now.

"Restricted" means the app has been limited by your Android on the amount of data it may transmit/receive as a background app. The app settings assume you're on a meterd or low-volume data plan, and so they don't transmit data except when they're active, or up on your screen.
Their upload/download tallies will still count in your Network accounting. Frankly, your screenshot looks like something I'd expect. Nothing untoward seems to be occurring.
Let those other restricted apps 'run in background" (an app permission) and you'll see a different picture.

I mean, we're communicating over the Internet right now, which is pretty cool. Right?
On Lemmy. For now. Things will change. But for now it's pretty cool. Um.

WTF kind of question is this?
Is it a thing? OK, yeah? A concept of an idea, maybe.
Is it anything approaching moral, ethical or humane? No.
Nooo.
Nope.
Nuh-uh.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

There's Gradle to crave joke to make here, but deploy keeps failing during dependency checks for humor.
> A cargo ship with links to Russia packed with explosive fertiliser is floating off the Kent coast after being denied entry at other ports over safety fears. > > Ruby, a Maltese-flagged cargo ship carrying 20,000 tonnes of ammonium nitrate fertiliser from a port in Russia, was ordered out of Tromso in Norway and turned away from Danish waters. More alleged shenanigans with this craft drifting around the North Sea, ostensibly enroute to the Canaries.
Now that I think about it, it was probably before the pandemic. 🤔
ethical edit: For a toss-off gag that even I thought was a bit sketch, I'm learning a lot about this situation and I appreciate it
I have a few grinders I'd like to replace the stainless mesh between the middle and bottom chambers. Rather than try to track down the OEM info for the grinders, I figured it might be easier to source 60 micron stainless mesh stock and cut some rounds to size. I don't need much-- maybe the equivalent of a sheet or two of US Letter or A4 sized sheets or rolls. My google-fu is failing me and my local suppliers don't seem to understand what I need. Anyone here have a source for the screen stock? edit: solved! Thanks @teft!!
Fartology is an up and coming science.
I missed it in the release notes, but there's a breaking change in the `ota` component in ESPHome 2024.6.0. I figured I'd save folks some time and share the fix here. If your OTA config looks like this; ``` ... ota: password: "*************" num_tries: 3 safe_mode: on ... ``` Now you'll need to add a `platform` key to start a list, and either comment out the other option or move them to a new component. ``` ... ota: - platform: esphome password: "*************" #num_tries: 3 #safe_mode: on ... ``` edit: Here's the PR introducing this change https://github.com/esphome/esphome/pull/6459
Hear me out... I was raised, as my family does, to fearfully respect our kitchen knives. Respect their productivity, respect their sharpness, but overall respect their ruthlessness. Even the mildest of disrespect for my family's knives would earn you a nick of you were merely neglectful, and grievous harm if you spoke ill of their aptness. Of course, when I moved out and set up my own kitchens I acquired my own knives and tried to teach them better. How I was the master, and I was the steel wright. I lavished them with hand baths and fresh oils. I used only the gentlest of hardwoods on their blades and protected them from the hrllscape of the dishwasher. We lived in serene peace, an harmonic existence of a mealwright and his band of merry Riveners. And then one day, the Inheritance came. Grand Father had died, and his boning knives were my bequest. I was elated, but I would learn. My friends, that old knife had a soul. Not an evil soul, but a soul that had goals. It was hard steel that took a keen, harsh edge. Bright and tense, like a silver bell on a crisp winter morning. Not Solingen steel, so pliable and yielding as it is fickle in use. Grandfather's knives told you where to cut and if you hesitated, they would cut you instead in frustration. Impertinent things. Not evil, I would say. More, businesslike. My mistake was to lay them with my other knives. Did you know knives _talk?_ They do! They whisper to each other in their blocks at night when you are asleep. They whisper and they.learn from each other. A good papa hopes they learn the Art of their chef, but when you have a Bad Knife in the block? They learn that too. Now, all of my knives are angry knives. Not angry at me, necessarily, but angry at their lot in my kitchen, to suffer my children's abusive cooking lessons, my in-laws' insistent prep work degradations, and (occasionally) my neglect. They bit my wife tonight. Its a Message....
Happy Dad-dude's Day to all you who celebrate it!
Nobody's perfect.
Pretty sure we had the E9112 and E9116 back in the day. Now I have a legit B92FS but it doesn't squirt water. For work reasons. Ah, nostalgia. (Don't play with guns!)
That's, "boots & pants & boots & pants...." in American
