Black Olives (or green, either way).

I use them when warranted, which isn’t very often. I don’t think the avoidance of using swears is a religious thing, it’s a language/cultural thing. For some reason they’re just deemed “bad words”. They exist in almost all languages and cultures as far as I know.

A good friend of mine swears a lot unless kids are around. I don’t mind it, but he’s sort of “that guy” because of it. If he was someone I just met, I’d think he’s just a bit lowbrow and that’s about it. I wouldn’t think poorly of anyone because of it as long as their attitude is good.

People look at expensive houses more often than not. You can definitely send someone, though, like if you’re looking at a house in a different city and can’t get there just for a showing. We did that once and had our friend do a video chat with us.

Oh wow. Weird that it defaults to off.

Holy cow. You can use your mouse with micro. Amazing.

Oregon Trail

They had it installed on the computer in my 5th grade classroom.

Red Beans & Rice

Plate

Fast food containers, although handy, are too restrictive. Sometimes your pull one fry out and it pulls another fry with it. Sometimes you lose that other fry. It takes some mental focus to avoid this.

Plate fries are loose and free, and don’t require any thinking.

Right. Not a bug, but a decision by the developers in order to upgrade the 2FA stuff.

Lemmy is beta software. One of the updates around the 0.19.0 mark (we’re up to 0.19.5 now, with 0.19.6 around the corner) changed the login stuff. I don’t remember the details, but instead of locking everyone out of their accounts, 2FA was disabled. The lemmy.world admins didn’t choose this, it’s just how the update worked.

I don’t know what kind of communication or sticky posts were used during the upgrade, but I’m sure some people missed it, including OP.

Oops! Well, people post old articles here all the time, so I guess it’s no big deal.

I’ve noticed at least one popular news community on Lemmy where this seems to be happening all the time.

I’m not sure why I’ve been subscribed to this community for this long.

A rise? Hmmm.

Sorry, what do you mean?

Here goes Yogthos posting old articles again.

My understanding is that pure sine is only needed for inductive loads, like motors. If you run a vacuum cleaner with modified sine, it’ll sound bad, maybe not work, maybe something will overheat, etc.

Computer power supplies are resistive loads (although reading about it just now it’s slightly more complicated than that) and they don’t mind the modified sine.

The cheaper one (CST1500SUC) seems better, actually. Not sure why. It claims sine wave output while the other one is Simulated Sine Wave. Assuming they mean Pure Sine Wave and Modified Sine Wave, Pure is much better.

Arguably computers really don’t care about pure vs modified, but pure is usually more expensive.

Like, on the inside of the bucket? It’ll still hold water like normal.
