Instant pot. I mostly use it for batch cooking, making homemade stocks and rice now. But, I used to make yoghurt in it weekly and proof dough in it every 3 days or so.

It advertised a bunch of functions and it only sucks at slow cooking, but pressure cooking is faster and better imo, it does suck at slow cooking though.

A good general suggestion. The WAF I follow are 'reasonable' expense, reasonable form factor, and a physical investment. I floated the idea of a VPS and that's when I learned of the third criteria. It is what it is.

I just started on this 8tb HDD so it isn't very full right now, I could raise the ratio limits. But, I worry about filling the HDD and part of me worries about 100s of torrents on an n100 doing other things. So I'm keeping the habit from my pi4+1TB days of deleting media behind us and keeping the torrent count low.

I justify it as self managing though: popular Isos are on then off my harddrive fairly quickly, but the ones that need me will sit and wait until they hit the ratio of 3 however long that is. I would like to do "3 + (get that last seeder to 100%)" but I don't know how/if it's possible to automate through prowlarr.

I should probably keep sharing Linux Isos longer than I do, but data hording has a low WAF. Instead I have prowlarr set the ratio to 3 (one for me, one for a leecher, and one to add to the pool) to keep the data churning.

Not entering, just a thank you and good luck.

You gotta TAWK TUAH to get to know 'er.

Hehe, I see what you did there.

MLK on climate change (probably):

[…]that [humanities] great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the [oil company] or the [billionaire] but the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action’; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises [climate aware] to wait for a ‘more convenient season.’

Currently going through the Ender quintet, and the Expeditionary Force.

I'm on book four of the Ender series, the first two were as good as I remember. 3 an 4 have taken some work. Can't recommend buying them though as OSC is a... just the opposite of the message of the books.

Expeditionary Force is as samey as I remember. I read them as audiobooks at work so the pulp is quite welcome. Also, I'm on book 9 (not back to back reads), so while it's formulaic I guess I'm not too bored of jerking in the shower jokes. I'd recommend the first one, but not as a series.

My last "work read" was the murder bot series, I binged my way through those, pretty good

Any comment starting with some varient of "So you..." can almost always be ignored. I think they're framed as summarising an opponents position to lay bare an obvious flaw. But, to me aleast, they just out the commenter as being ignorant or malicious. Ignorant of what the comment they're replying to said, or maliciously trying to misrepresent it.

I think it speaks to a broader problem of online rhetoric where person X tells person Y what person Y thinks and why (and most importantly why they're wrong to think this way) instead of asking them.

The firestick is what I chose as my TV's, a 10yo LG, jellyfin client. Works as intended, better really. One day I'll block the stick's internet connection, and it'll be the almost perfect device, in that it plays almost anything natively. My server is a rpi4 so anything I can do to stop transcoding, I do.
