You need to restructure your priorities.

Or use a ca, vps and dns provider that’s hostile to the west.

It’s not a question of supporting “freedom” and if you insist that it is, I will gladly provide all those services to you for a slight markup (price of freedom!).

Because there’s no reason to switch.

I’m almost 100% that wasn’t because of metric or not using it.

Above doors or above other windows. They’re the ones up high that pivot open and closed.

Yeah it works. The drawback is you gotta do it.

If you’re only fighting heat and have a tall area then transom windows can also help a ton but you have to have a massive gigabrain from 1950 to understand how to use em.

Lose fat and build muscle. You will be more financially stable when you’re healthy.

Hey, I think ai can be a useful tool and I use both cloud hosted and local models.

The ecological impact is god awful.

Datacenters run on fossil fuel turbines to meet demand when there isn’t enough capacity on the grid or just 24/7 because the residents of the nearby municipality said they don’t want brownouts.

Fundamentally ai datacenters transform expensive to transmit electricity into cheap to transmit data, financializing what was previously a relatively insulated commodity whose pricing and production reflect local demand into a globally traded commodity whose pricing and production reflect global demand.

If you don’t have a background in the history of industry and environment: that’s bad news for the environment (and anyone who relies on stable power rates).

Production of ai computing components requires mining rare earth minerals and phenomenal amounts of power. This is the same process with nearly the same inputs as the production of general purpose computing parts (if you leave off the increased rare earths needed to mitigate electromigration in single digit nanometer processes!) but the increased demand has already brought more fabs up to meet it meaning more use of resources and energy in production before the first kilowatt of inference is run on those chips.

Turbine blades for datacenter generators are also limited by production and are currently years out for delivery. These are components produced by advanced aerospace manufacturing shops which use massive amounts of energy to shape alloys of metals that have to be yanked out of the ground and smelted into some esoteric type of steel or aluminum first.

So even without the water concerns datacenters have tremendous impact on the environment.

But the water concerns are legitimate. Swamp chillers divert flowing water into the air where it is blown anywhere but where it would have flowed. Which is fine if you aren’t downstream of one I guess.

All this is to say: if you don’t care about the impacts you can rationalize that however you like, but they exist.

Wilted collards

That doesn’t mean old collards, it means separate the center stem from the leaves, cut them up and in the same pan you fried your bacon and eggs for your ramen, pan fry them until they turn a darker deeper green.

It’s called kilt as well if you’re in a place where people do this.

Save the cut up stems for stock or pickling. Pickled collard stems, bamboo shoots and watermelon rinds are good in ramen too.

You can do this with all kinds of greens but some like turnip don’t need it.

If you’re insanely poor and ill equipped, a half cup of the little frozen mixed vegetable cubes turns packet ramen into cup noodles.

Yeah, it’s hard work protecting your own space.

There isn’t a comparable service.

If you don’t need what mullvad is selling then there are others out there but the landscape is hard to navigate if you don’t understand what you’re there for and how to choose what you give out.

Person who leaves located

Yes everyone just abuses the people who are acting up until they stop posting. It works great.

No.

A photocell is just a reverse transistor where the base is sunlight hitting the p instead of a small current.

Systemdeez nuts

Whatever’s around. Some writable filesystem.

Rsync and cron

You’ll just have to launder your purchases of Chinese parts through mouser or digikey like the big boys do.

E: try to be diligent when using farnell. They end up with weird shit sometimes.
