They work in reverse too. A heat pump can heat more efficiently than a resistance heater.

If it needs a name it should be "The Lemur". Reminds me of a Ring Tailed Lemur

I recently moved to Michigan from Colorado. I wish Michigan would adopt mail in voting. It was extremely convenient to receive my ballot in the mail, complete it in the comfort of my home and mail it back or drop it off. They had a tracking system so that I can confirm that my ballot was accepted (or not). And if it wasn't for whatever reason, I could follow up on it, or even vote in person.

This is good news regardless, at least I'll have a few days to get to the polls.

I'd suggest Linux mint Debian edition, at least for the 32bit machine. Many distros have stopped supporting 32bit lately.

It should be fairly user friendly.

Survivorship bias!

I play csgo on Linux and get this once in awhile. Restarting steam tends to fix the issue.

I recently did a similar project. I have an old Chumby One device. I wrote a simple app that renders the time and date and outdoor temp and humidity. It receives the weather data over mqtt from rtl_433 running on an old wireless router with a USB sdr dongle.

It writes the image directly to the framebuffer /dev/fb0

I cross compiled for armv5te-unknown-linux-musleabi and it works great. Hard to get much running on 64mb of ram these days.

I hope to get the source up on GitHub when I get some time.

Exactly, you can subscribe to both if you like. If communities were unique across instances then a bad actor could set up their own instance and claim all of the community names.

Same here. I'd often type out a comment just to delete it with the assumption that I'll get downvoted or that it'll start a comment chain of arguing.

It's been nice to see other's perspectives on this.

So far the culture on Lemmy has been so much more positive. Maybe this is just a side effect of eager early adopters using the platform.

Do you cut the butter off the stick/block with the spoon? Or a knife for that part?
