I'm a big fan of mooses. I think they're large enough to deserve the extra letters.

I can't be bothered to that degree. I'll watch for gelatin. And if I knew which thing to look for, I might avoid this as well. But I don't care enough to go out of my way and learn.

I always assumed it was like Fish. No change in the plural.

Problem with downvotes is people assume they feed the algorithm. They use them to say " I personally don't want to see this". When they're really meant as " this is inappropriate for this community".

I think Lemmy needs to create an algorithm that would help with downloads acting as expected. And then allow people to flag separately if something is not appropriate for a community.

Put it up into a bun wet and forget it's wet.

It's fine for some. I've been driving my Leaf with 90 miles range for eight years and haven't needed more. It's a daily commuter car.

But I'm lucky enough to have two cars in the family.

My Tiktok feed is legal analysis of court cases, magic the gathering card reviews, and Marvel deep dives. You get fed what you watch.

Just report that voiceover shit.

This is apparently false. My kids can legit sit down, poop, and wander off. It's unsettling..

Ahhh, yes. So you prefer quiet suffering to loud suffering so you can more easily ignore it. Me too, bro. Me too.

A population trained to believe without critically thinking is dangerous to everyone.

I bought a house a few months ago and I'm still trying to figure out all the wiring. I found these coming out of a cabinet in the kitchen.

I think (?) the black one is a cut-off coax cable. There's a LOT of coax in this house, so that seems straightforward (but I would still love if someone can confirm!)

I'm not sure about the other ones. They don't look electric, as I'd expect electric to be black + white + copper, like the rest of the house.

There is supposedly a speaker system in the house (I see speakers) but I haven't figured it out yet. Could that be power for the speakers? I'm not familiar with speaker wire setup. If it's speakers, why would there be so many wires?

 

I'm looking for an inexpensive label maker that can print small labels. I need to label various things around my house for my sanity (outlet/breaker mapping, coax endpoint mapping, etc).

I was going to buy a NIIMBOT D110, but then I saw in their FAQ that they put an IC (chip) into their labels and the printer won't print if it can't sense it. I really don't want to support a company that DRMs their consumables, if I can help it.

Can anyone recommend a good, small, inexpensive label maker? Preferably one that doesn't have sketchy DRM embedded.

 

I've got about 1/4 acre with some odd shapes and walkways. I'm looking to invest in a robotic mower, but the boundary wire ones don't seem to work with my layout. It doesn't need to have clean mow lines or anything, I just want my grass to be shorter.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a non-wired robot mower? Preferably one that integrates with HA, but that's not required.

If you do, what are the pros/cons of the unit?

 

I was reading about how the EU is thinking of reducing the lead used in ammunition because it's polluting the environment. I wonder if regular lead exposure at the firing range is addling people's brains.

 
 

Exercise is hitting. My brain gives up way before my body does. Even when I try and listen to music or watch shows while exercising, I just can't keep at it.

Has anyone found an ADHD friendly way to exercise?

 

A fine specimen indeed

 

I know it was a thing on reddit, but how does everyone feel about peeing on your compost? Apparently it really helps, but I've never brought myself to do it.

 

Has anyone created their own instance and modified it? How about the same for the Android client? There are some features I'm desperately missing and I'm not against DIY.
