Reddit probably beats Facebook but it’s getting worse all the time. If you want to use Lemmy you might consider running your own instance. Lemmy as far as I can tell has usable photo uploading. Maybe the new thing you mentioned will be better, but idk anything about it. There is also Threads which is a Facebook thing, right?

On a stovetop you have to soak the beans overnight and then cook them for at least an hour, so energy usage might be higher, idk. OTOH the batch size compensates for a lot.

Or dry beans vs canned beans; does the cost of boiling the beans actually bring the cost up to be equivalent to canned beans?

Nowhere near, at least in a a pressure cooker. An electric pressure cooker uses 1KW when the heater is running, and you cook the beans for about 35 minutes. The heater doesn’t run the whole time but even if it did, that’s around 0.6 KWH at most. And you would normally do a bigger batch than you’d get in 1 can of beans. I have been wanting to measure the actual power usage sometime.

If you have the time for it I’d say run an independent site. Lemmy is ok for posting photos though.

Try the monthly Who Is Hiring thread on news.ycombinator.com, first business day of each month so you will have to wait a couple weeks for the next one. Here is the last one:

Try this too, though pickings might be slim under present circumstances: https://www.otherbranch.com/

More like 1 hour but yeah.

My mom dislikes instant pot rice and likes zojirushi rice. IDK what the difference is but she can tell. Shrug.

Normal employment background check only looks for criminal convictions.

I’m old enough to remember chemistry sets and they kind of don’t exist any more. Anyway the stuff for making PCB’s overlaps only slightly.

You probably want to first gain some understanding of the stuff you are trying to do, before messing with expensive dangerous chemicals and all that. I like Ken Shiriff’s reverse engineering blog righto.com and maybe you can follow links from there.

I’ve always been told through hole plating is quite difficult. Make some single sided boards first, then double sided using vias to connect stuff across the two sides, before pursuing PTH. But I think home PCB’s aren’t really a thing any more either, at least for digital circuits. You can get super cheap board fab from JLPCB or whatever, instead of trying to do fine enough pad pitch for modern tiny SMT parts.

Lemm.ee is shutting down from lack of admins, apparently.

Not that resilient. Mods and admins controlling discussion, defederation due to dislike of the messenger, etc. I think the federation model is flawed and it should be done at the client side instead of on servers.

TEFL work often pays kind of badly, but it’s an ok thing to do if you don’t have better options, of ir you’re trying to spend some time travelling while bringing in enough cash to cover basic expenses. I wouldn’t want to think of it as a career.

The screen light will mess with your sleep cycle. Put on some quiet music and listen to it with the screen shut off and your eyes closed.

I’m on lemmy.ml, it uses JS but it doesn’t appear to load any from other domains. It serves images through a local proxy.

I mean, nobody is going to arrest you for posting it here, and I’m sure it’s well intended, but it’s unlikely to get any traction here.

You must be kidding. A scroll-through and peek at the contents shows that it’s at best in the wrong place. Plus way too long for most readers’ eyeballs to not fall out.

Ao3 is already fine as far as I can tell.

Modern batteries = sealed inside the device and not replaceable, so you have to throw the device away when the battery craps out? No thanks.
