  • i've heard that's a myth, but just in case you can add a re-mineralizer module to most RO systems as a last stage.

    Edit: so it's not a myth but needs context

    https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9241593989

    Here is a relatively old WHO report, page 88 basically says if you're getting enough nutrients from food then the impacts of reduced minerals in water aren't significant. Conversely on page 158 they show increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death in animals from demineralized water, however, they do concede that those were external studies, the methods may not meet modern scrutiny but should not be outright dismissed. In other words more information is needed.

    The pdf is from 2005 so there's probably newer studies out there. In any case adding an alkaline filter makes RO water taste better and it's cheap enough to not have to worry about it.

  • How about a bus? The fiber to a datacenter i used to work at kept going out at almost consistent intervals during almost normal business hours. Turns out the conduit wasn't deep enough and the city built a bus stop on top of it and it would sag just enough to go out but only when a bus was at the stop.

  • If an app shouldn't affect the rest of my system i don't mind it as a flatpak. I like that I can use the bleeding edge of an app without system breaking dependencies. I also appreciate the sandbox that flatpaks seem to be contained in. If something is meant to be a part of my system then it needs to be native.

    My experience with snaps have not been pleasant, patricularly on arm devices.

  • This one startles easily but will calm right down if you rub his head and make soothing sounds. Looks like he hasn't quite made a home for himself yet. Unfortunately humans have made it artificially difficult for his kind to get settled in. Beautiful bloke though, look how he's got hair in unusual places! Never seen one with hair there before. Better let him go, if he hurts himself from mild struggling he'll mope about for days. This was already more activity than he's had for weeks and he looks pretty winded.
