  • Funny personalities don't make people laugh, and therefore aren't really funny. They're more patronizing and infantalizing.

    Should I explain that not all planets live in the same Federation? I’m thinking no.

    I think you've already gone astray from really explaining the (relatively simple) relationship between federated instances. It's already confusing because you're trying to make it fun.

    I say, give your app whatever functionality you think is best, and the aesthetic/style/personality you think is best, but don't worry about making the fediverse "fun." Fun descriptions actually distract from the information.

  • Actually I just get one bottle (of each) every 2 years. Even so, it's slightly expensive, and I bet that there's a cheaper alternative if I could find out what the ingredients are.

  • Oh it makes a huge difference. Without humidifiers I get awful dry skin and nosebleeds from the dry heat of the heaters in winter.

    This humidifier is different from the vaporizers I used before. Those ones would get mouldy and would only last a year.

    It's a Venta Air washer. It has a turbine inside the water reservoir that slowly turns the water like a mill, so the water evaporates more slowly than with a vaporizer. And on top there's a fan sucking air down into the wet churning turbine, so the air is being pushed through all the wet pieces of the turbine. Somehow that takes impurities out of the air, they stick to the water. And the impurities don't evaporate, so as the water slowly evaporates you can see it getting dirtier over a few days.

    EDIT: I have a two-bedroom apartment and the one humidifier makes the whole place comfortable. It's a really good purchase. You have to buy a liquid to add to the water though.

    I found this video that sort of explains it:

  • I should clean more often.

    But my humidifier is also an air purifier and it pulls a LOT of dirt from the air. I change the water every week and it's filthy. Surprising how much dirt is in the air to "purify."

  • What exactly will "we" get?

    Also, go back and study my initial comment. You don't need to study it that hard. Just read it again.

  • I have a solution: spin up a dozen nuclear power plants to fuel AI to solve the problem. If there's not enough nuclear, just burn coal.

  • That's a small price to pay for having no healthcare and a shorter lifespan than those in poorer Western countries.

  • What is the UK OSB?

  • How do they know? IP address?

  • Good point! I'll just update my ID and use wealthsimple or something.

  • I don't care if it's traced. I'll check out Bisq. Thanks stranger.
