It's the term we need to use until it's generally accepted. Thanks for fighting the good fight.

It's the new screen-mirrored laptop, taking the development of open-source software to the next level with real-time, in-room code transparency.

Yep. Only potatoes and salt, plus multivitamins to make up for the massive nutritional defecit, for 5 days. I was already experimenting with an elimination diet due to food allergies and a friend mentioned this week long potato diet to help reduce food cravings. Potatoes were a safe food so I thought I'd give it a try.

It was awful. Day 4's dinner was an entire pizza.

I tried this with potatoes. It's miserable and I broke after four days.

I spent like twenty minutes looking. I'm stumped!

Unfortunately, even though it sounds adorable, that's a myth. There's nothing about bees or bumblebees that would make their flight theoretically problematic.

Failed electrical engineering major here - it turned out I was built to be a scientist, not an engineer, but it took a year of EE classes to figure that out.

Regarding energy storage, capacitors aren't much different than batteries, but they can charge/discharge faster, have lower energy density (units of stored energy per units mass), and self-discharge faster, hence why they aren't used in place of batteries. For something where weight and volume aren't an issue and with no need for long-term storage, like a solar-equipped house, a huge cap would be a great option. I'm trying to figure out how to build one of what's described it the article now.

The rate at which a capacitor discharges varies just like a battery, proportional to the resistance of the circuit. The reason most folks associate capacitors with "shorted terminals go boom" is the maximum rate of discharge on a capacitor is much higher than a battery, plus some capacitors operate at a much higher voltage than is practical for a battery, increasing the likelihood of generating a small arc. Shorting the terminals with a conductor makes a low resistance circuit so it just dumps its charge, whereas a battery would max out at a much lower rate, typically making a toasty wire versus a vaporized or melted wire.

Speak for yourself, I might make one!

Put up or shut up, Ron.

Or accessible at all!

I'd punch the alleged deals into camelcamelcamel to find they'd been similar for years. I've even found prices that went up!

People are much nicer as a whole here. I was on Reddit for years and I started to dread seeing I had replies to my comments. I'm actually excited when I get responses here.

It helps a ton. Facial massage and neti pots help me survive the worst congestion.

Oh shit, I didn't know about ESPhome. There goes my free time!

Seconded. Alligator Auschwitz is appropriate.

You're not supposed to chew them?! I love oysters but I chew them up.

If only science could provide an answer. It must be a witch!

I'm a secret leftist amongst a bunch of low information MAGA voters (the ones that voted for Trump more because they're stupid and easily duped than being giant racists) in a few different circles. All they know is I own guns and answer "oh fuck no" when asked if I'm a liberal, so they assume I'm a non-MAGA conservative*. Hehehe.

Without exception, they adore Elno. They don't realize it but they're prosperity gospel types (because stupid), so they assume he must be a good and intelligent guy, otherwise Jebus wouldn't have made him successful.

*Side note: I have one all hot and bothered about seizing the means of production, just using different terms.

That was over a decade ago. She now receives 49% of merchandizing profit.

Habitual consumption of even small amounts of processed meat, sugary drinks, and trans fatty acids...

As little as one hot dog a day? I eat like one every few months. How many hot dogs is the average American eating daily?
