Academic writing can be used as a smoke screen to mask bullshit, or to express ideas concisely. But this can happen in all communication.

Another important function is that communicating in this style shows you know "how thingsa re done". It functions as an implicit screening for wierdos, but comes at the expense of keeping people wit hgood ideas but an unadapted writing style out of the field.

Let me put on my MBA hat and propose to only show the user websites selling new notebooks and suppress repair shop or repair guide pages.

What you identify as does not matter, as long as you die in battle with honor!

Just the term "side loading" instantly frames installing software on a device you own as something shady.

Also don't forget the dubious AliExpress devices that have all these symbols, no data lines, Vcc at 12V and ground attached to a loose M8 nut.

If you want to minimize cleanup and effort, just use a rice cooker.

  • Costs 30€
  • Put in rice and lentils at a ratio of your chosing, cook with oil and salt
  • Optionally spices and tomato paste
  • Put in frozen veggies either in a steaming basket or directly in the rice
  • Chuck in an onion (quartered if you're lazy) and some garlic
  • Yoghurt on the side

Congratulations you now have a healthy, cheap meal you can make at home or at work. If you eat directly out of the cooker you only need to clean your spoon. No cutting board needed either.

Companies should be required to maintain a stash of plans and source code which is automatically released upon the company stopping operations, unless the IP is bought.

"main" is shorter than "master". "sub" is shorter than "slave". Why worry about social issues when you can just type less and move on? :)

Every installation has benefits and drawbacks:

  • If you have humans walking below PV, you must prevent parts falling down
  • The support must be quite wide, requiring more expensive carrying members
  • Constrains traffic
  • Cars are protected from hail and heat (good for car factories!)
  • Makes electricity where it's needed
  • Very visible progress toward renewables

France made it mandatory for large malls to install these btw.

I used to have an account on feddit, which is a german lemmy instance. For three months now I am only getting "Server error" when trying to visit it. Can anybody reach it? Is there any site where I can check the state of instances? Or was I banned?

Thanks for any help :)
