How to keep a lot of plants at home alive: only buy the Aloe™ plants. I don’t know if it’s even possible to kill the ones I have without straight out drowning them. Forgot to water one of them for half a year and it started blooming instead of dying out. Now it gets watered only when I remember to water it.


Firefox generates random passwords for you by default. You have to disable it in the settings if you want to use another password manager besides Firefox’s built in one.
If it can be installed on arch, it can be installed on steam OS. You just have to jailbreak it beforehand, as I said in the previous comment.
Can’t be worse than trying to fix dependencies for maven on any platform
I installed some games from GOG on the steam deck. The hardest part was trying to figure out how to make them show up in steam library. For software that requires modifying the system, you’ll have to jailbreak the steam os. It’s quite straight forward and irc it took me about 30min to enable sudo and install ydotool for autoclicker.
Best cure for a hangover is drinking responsibly. Good drinks do make it hard though.
Depends. For performance? Not really. For sound? Definitely. Unless you go for one of those passive air cooled PC cases (15+ kg of aluminum and no fans), you won’t get anything that is quieter than a liquid cooler with a 360mm rad. With a custom loop and a GPU water block you can get your PC to essentially silent.
Mah lips be hurting from the big chill


Yes, if everything is configured correctly, then an outage can be either avoided completely or reduced to the time it takes to switch the traffic over (and scale up and so on). But this is not the case as can be seen from today’s events.


Ah, multi cloud. Before we had an outage when AWS went down, now we have an outage every time any cloud provider goes down


I don’t go to the office often, but when I do, I usually walk. The distance is 4km and it takes me 40mins. It’s not like I walk often, most days I get less than 2k steps, but I do walk fast.
It is up to you (unless the infrastructure is an ass) to make it there in 40mins or 2 hours
One thing to note is that the ANC shuts down during charging (so does Bluetooth) but you can still use the wired connection.
In my experience, it is not an issue. I turn the oven on when I want to start cooking and only then start gathering the items. By the time I want to stick something in the oven, it is already hot. Doesn’t work with frozen pizza tho
If you don’t have an oven with a fan/convection, then sure, get an additional appliance.
You can make stews, soups and other things one would use a slow cooker for by taking a stainless steel or some other not-made-of-plastic pot and sticking it in the oven
Rant about kitchen appliances:
People should learn to use the things they most probably already have in their kitchen.
slow cooker is just a tiny pot shaped low temperature oven with a timer
Air fryer is a tiny oven with a fan
Why do people get so hyped about a smaller and more limited version of the thing they already have? Just use your oven which most likely already has all these features. I haven’t seen an electric oven without a fan or without a timer in my lifetime
Ah, yes, lets generate more needless waste
3D printed items are unsuitable for food purposes, doesn’t matter with which end you’ll eat them. The layer lines aren’t perfectly sealed so they are very porous, allowing all kinds of nasties to grow in them.
With ABS you might be able to fix it with an acetone bath to re-melt the top layer, but I haven’t checked.
