But then everyone's pc was built somewhere by someone. Smartphones could use the same model. It would improve competition between specialised parts manufacture, premade units could be priced according to the sum and performance of their parts, ewaste reduction when people can upgrade only the part they want. There is a lot of consumer upside whether you build or buy premade.

Microwaves are fantastic cooking tools, and I'm pretty confident you're not using yours to its potential. Defrosting, reheating, steaming, boiling. Does it all in half the time with half the mess. All those settings on the keypad do something good. Most people just wack a few numbers in and let the microwave literally cremate the food on full power. Those reheat and defrost settings apply microwave then switch to low or no power, leaving the applied heat to radiate internally before repeating. Different densities and starting temperatures are accounted for.

Obviously you wouldn't cook a stir fry or a steak in a microwave. Potatoes before roasting though? Dumplings? Frozens? Yes please Mike.

That's a hard working if. A dollar per year from a majority of Twitter users is a few dollars. I think it's probably about the money.

Check it out, Sandy! We got square dancing, giant Barbecues, homemade peas-in-a-can pie, and we got our very own 10 gallon hats!

I have the same setup with a rpi 4 and I've been impressed with it. Amazon may just feed the rpi shortage... Damn.

My 5 yr old came home from school last week asking about heaven, as at least one of her friends are catholic. It's chilling how little control over religion you have when it comes to younger kids, and it's the age where indoctrination is most effective. It's tough to know what to say...

  • there are tons of adults who think they have the same imaginary friend who really doesn't exist.

  • people look for balance to the idea of their own mortality so they made up religion, then it was coopted by those looking to assume its authority.

  • friend's parents are wrong and their dog/grandma didn't go to heaven cause it doesn't exist.

Obviously not those haha. Good luck though with your little one!

LineageOS auto selects any number groupings in a text and displays them on the notification for one click copy. Super handy, I remember the pain though.

Environmental damage from emissions doesn't care about relative efficiency, 15 free miles is objectively more than 5 free miles.
