I have a Cuisinart electric kettle that has six presets. In the seven years I’ve owned it, it’s been used at least twice a day, and often more. It works great, though I was annoyed to learn that yes, French press coffee really is better when made at the slightly below boiling point that it can do. I had so many years of drinking coffee that could have been made better if I had just bought it earlier.
Just use M-x M-butterfly
Sure! First, you need to time the planting right so that the corn is the right height for the beans to grow on at the right time. Then you have to manage the beans so that they trellise properly without choking the corn or squash. The stalks grow quickly, so you need to check them and adjust every day. Same with the squash.
Eventually by the time it’s all growing well you have a large thick layer of vegitation that is all tangled together. You need to get through it to water, weed, pest control, and harvest, all while keeping sure not to accidentally step or trip on anything.
It’s not impossible, but compared to seperate trellises for beans, rows of corn, and a squash mound it’s just a lot more work every day to keep up with.
For anyone wanting to try this in their backyard, don’t. Yes, it absolutely works and will produce more yield per square foot and per gallon of water, particularly in dry climates. However, it is a lot more manual labor throughout the growing season and at harvest. It’s worth it for subsistence agriculture, but not at all for hobby gardens.
Looking back… none of them. I had an OG Gameboy, GBA, PS2, Wii, 3DS, and now a Switch 2. My favorite was probably either the first Gameboy or the 3DS. I loved all of the weird streetpass stuff when I was traveling for work. But I have great memories of all of them, and the S2 has been a lot of fun with my kids.
Same here. I have been moving everything I can to self hosted FOSS, contributing to FOSS projects, and rehabbing old hardware. It’s been fun, I’ve met people from around the world and I’m getting tools I like to be even better.
Locally, I’m working with the library to start Linux days, where we help fix old computers and move them to Linux. There’s been a lot of interest due to Win11.
I had a problem on my work laptop with them about five years ago, but rolling back fixed it. Never on my personal machines.
Edit: TBF, I’ve never had a personal laptop with an nVidia card. I generally prefer to build my own desktops, though I do have a laptop. It has an AMD GPU, also with no problems.
My partner bought a Skylight screen a month ago. I put it up, but it’s basically been unused since.
For me, there was this very early health tracking watch I got, which was so fragile that it would reset and lose all data if I did anything more active than walking.
Some Google TV that was well reviewed, but at some point shortly after I got it had a software update that made the UI unusablly slow. Like, 5-10 seconds to respond to every button click.
I recently did a big expansion on my home networking infrastructure, and backups were one of bigger triggers.
My setup is based on a local NAS + Hetzner storage box. The NAS runs Immich, Paperless, and the arr stack. Immich and Paperless back up to the storage box via borg, along with the configuration and docker files, but not the media. I either have physical copies of that or don’t really care because I can just download it again.
My computers also back up to the storage box via borg, except for the Photos, Music and Video directories, for the same reasons. My partners Mac is currently backing up to an external USB drive, but the plan is to move them to Backblaze for the easy SAF and/or the NAS as a Timemachine target.
Plausible? Absolutely. The questions are what and why?
For notes, it seems like most people have settled on one of three things: org-mode, markdown, or free form plain text. There are some closed source tools that use a proprietary format, but fuck them.
So then the question becomes what does the backend do? Provide a way to query notes for links, topics, and todos? Keep a versioning system? Synchonization? Something else? Answer those questions and you have a project.
For references, take a look at nb, Joplin, Logseq, org-mode, anytype.
That’s the one, and it’s still great.
