Turns out, asklemmy just banned that account for being a bot.

Posting this much isn’t normal. Looks very fishy to me.

Like a cab, but it’s your car and you take care of everything.

If you need a car only once a year when going to the airport, a cab will be cheaper. If you need to go somewhere at least once a week, driving your own car will be cheaper. Likewise, if you need only a little bit of cloud storage for your photos, free iCloud or Google Drive might be fine. If you need a whole lot of storage, self-hosting becomes cheaper.

When you take a cab, do you need to worry about maintenance, gasoline, insurance, or other things? No. The same goes for cloud storage. When you throw your photos on Google Drive, you don’t need to worry about electricity bills, security updates, or hardware maintenance.

When you drive your own car, you need to be a responsible driver and a car owner. Maintenance is your responsibility. Likewise, self-hosting means you need to be a responsible server admin.

Oh wow! That’s just next level villainous scheming. Then again, what can you expect from the public enemy number 1. Meta is still the cancer of the internet, so nothing has really changed.

Too many corporations, those are just the cost of doing business.

I really like the idea of having my own server, where I could have a bunch of cool stuff like email, VPN, Nextcloud, and so much more. The primary reason why I don’t have a server like that, is because I can’t trust myself to follow the best practices. For a while now, I’ve been thinking that I should hire a proper professional to take care of all that.

Oh, but now OP will be motivated to test all the lights browsers.

Back when I did that, Midori was a clear winner in terms of usability. If you want to make the browser even lighter, you’ll start bumping into some pretty significant compromises. If you don’t use modern websites, you can actually get away with something like Netsurf or even Lynx.

I assume it also sucks heat and noise from the environment. If you have a bunch of these devices around you, it should create a bubble of ice cold silence. Should be perfect for the hot summer nights when your bedroom is too hot.

Who cares about customer satisfaction or returning customers when what the investors really care about is quarterly revenue and dividends.

What about the times when I have data about two things that really should correlate, but don’t because life is complicated?

You know, like sunshine and temperature? Seasons, wind and location mess things up, and the correlation you expected to see just evaporates.

Apparently there’s a mistake. Feel free to update the article.

Really? I had to look it up, and I found out that it was shut down in late 80s.

So that’s good to know next time I happen to be speaking with someone who is both old enough and from a particular part of the world.

Yes, but first you would need to know that: 411 = “I can’t find a specific community because it doesn’t have a logical name, so can you help me out.” Ironically, the name 411 embodies the problem perfectly.

This is giving me some serious chicken and egg vibes.

With a name like that, no wonder why I never found it.

While quickly looking into it, I didn’t find relevant information about the effect of temperature, unless you like to extract cafestol using methanol. That will spice up your morning brew!

However, I did find this graph, that shows the effect if roast level. Dammit, why did it have to be this way. I don’t even like dark roast.

Regardless, temperature usually has an impact on extraction rates. Higher temperatures make things happen faster and better as long as we’re not talking about dissolved gases.

I seem like it’s better to stick with paper filters. I wonder if an aeropress filter is good enough for catching those compounds though.

Whereas fractions are entirely clear to every American. Like, which drill but is biggest: 7/64, 3/32 or 1/8?

The one I have looks pretty much the same, but one of the edges is straight, one is concave and the last one is serrated. Maybe the concave edge is also designed to work only one way. If so, it makes sense to prevent the user from flipping it over.

Before clicking, I already knew it was standupmaths. Seems like there are lots of like-minded people here.

If you install Gnome, the UI becomes more touch friendly. Firefox is still lagging behind in this regard, but Gnome Web usually gets the job done.
