    DSW:

    Eine helle Nutzerschnittstelle in einem hellen Zimmer schont die Augen. Anders rum, anders rum.

    Pluspunkte gibt’s für einen Bildschirm, mit vernünftigem Weißpunkt und einem automatischen Nachtmodus zum Abend.

    EDIT: hsdkfr734r@feddit.nl hat eine enorm wichtige Frage gestellt und ich schäme mich etwas, einfach so Halbwissen weitergegeben zu haben. Diese Weißheit hatte ich vor bestimmt 'ner Dekade (+/- 'n Jahr oder so) gelesen. Ich weiß aber aktuell nicht mehr wo und kann diesen “Fakt” schlicht nicht mehr mit vernünftigen Quellen belegen.

    Hinzu kommt, dass damals™ mein mentaler Medienfilter deutlich schlechter war. Joar. Ggf. erzähl ich Schwachfu. Recherchiert das lieber nochmal.

    For programmers: Air fryers have perfected the race to idle.

    For everyone else: Probably, but the insulation may not matter as much. Heating up a traditional oven takes anywhere from 15 to maybe 5 minutes, if you got a really powerful one. During that time heat escapes the device.

    Meanwhile air fryers usually heat up in about a minute and get the actual cooking done faster.

    So unless you are broiling something for a really long time, air fryers may still come out on top, just because they get done quicker, saving energy in the process.

    Oven pizza is a 22 minute job. My air fryer is done after 9.

    There’s also something about air volume and thermal mass, but you get the point.



  • I once had to look after a friend’s german shepard, and while we were out for a walk, some barking guinea pig suddenly decided to unleash all its fury on my friend’s dog; even tried to bite the poor guy.

    Luckily, my friend’s dog is an absolute sweetheart and just tried to flee, almost knocking me over.

    Meanwhile, the owner of that showbox-sized spawn of hell decided it was best practice to go “Nununu, we don’t do that, Nununu.” in a high-pitched voice, while petting the damn thing.

    Sure. That’ll teach it.

    Denke das wird Sprengstoff gewesen sein. Li-Ionen Akkus haben nicht genug Energiedichte und reagieren einfach nicht schnell genug, um einen richtigen Knall zu geben. Die zischen und werden heiß. Schlimmstenfalls gibt’s da einen Brand.

    Somal in solchen Pagern so nur Akkus in der Größenordnung von einigen hundert mAh verbaut werden. Das ist imo zu wenig. Selbst eZigaretten mit 2000 - 3000mAh oder Roller mit mehreren Ah “explodieren” halt nicht so richtig.

    Denke mal, das wird schon irgendwas potenteres gewesen sein. Obligatorisch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahya_Ayyash#Assassination

    Und auch noch obligatorisch: Ich rate auch nur.

    Which cannot connect to a phone unless it’s unlocked, as accepting every USB-C connection carries security risks. They also require negotiation, which can fail at any time, meaning you have to unlock, disconnect, reconnect.

    I also have a nice, external (and still cheap) DAC on my computer. It has a headphone jack. This means I need to be able to disconnect the USB-C dongle from my headphones, unless I want to have two separate headphones for my phone and my PC. By extension this requires me to go searching for the dongle from time to time.

    I love USB-C. But the headphone jack had what companies and people claim to want: simplicity.

    Headphone jacks solved a single but extremly common problem very well. USB-C provides a workaround for it.



  • it even has a tutor

    Yeah, people are just lazy. I remember when I invented a new login screen and was told it was “difficult”, “confusing” and “took some getting used to”.

    It even came with a free 100-page manual and a 4-hour master class. Some people, I tell you!

    ^This is meant more as a joke than an actual critique, even if it kind of reflects my thoughts. But ultimatly, I thought it was a funny bit.^


  • I’m really sorry but that’s straight up misinformation.

    B12 is synthesized by certain bacteria. Plants do not create B12. Water does not somehow randomly contain B12. It’s ONLY synthesized by bacteria.

    I’m not even saying it’s disgusting. I say it’s easy to supplement. I’m not sure what’s going on, but there seems to be a wild misunderstanding.

    If Wikipedia is not for you, here’s a random paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29216732 Please. It’s not in water. It’s not in dirt or floats around in outside air. I’m not saying it’s disgusting. Quite the opposite, in fact. I’m just saying it has to be considered and vegans are more at risk in this particular way, that’s easily treatable.


  • Nono, I’m refering to the properties of B12 itself.

    Its oral absorption is just very poor. Apparently only ~1%. So the doses must be immense. But humans only need miniscule amounts. The solution I use has 20,000% MRV. And most supplements have insanely high doses to solve this problem.

    On the other hand: B12 is also available through dairy products or in egg-based foods. So it’s usually only a problem if one is completly vegan and, as stated, easily subverted.

    But you have to be aware of it. Because it’s not “always absorbed in tiny amounts” just because you eat something. To quote Wikipedia:

    Vitamin B12 is […] the only vitamin that must be sourced from animal-derived foods or supplements.

    Also, cool hack:
    It’s also bright red and can color drinks. That’s cool.




  • The initial comment resonated so much with me, that I feel the need to answer, even though I wasn’t even asked: YES

    A few years ago I was in a really dark place. I lost 3 kg in 2 months and when I wasn’t at work, I was lying in my bed on the verge of crying, half-listening to YouTube just to scare the thoughts away.

    But the thing, that finally got me out of the loop, was getting myself a houseplant, after watching a plant YouTuber for a while. And when I got home, rather than cry, I obsessively cleaned every speck of dust off the leaves, measured the soil moisture with a stick and just watched it be. And something just clicked inside me and I realized that I had found something I wanted to do; probably forever, if given the chance.

    Still have the same plant; cut, repotted and propagated. And while I’m at a much better place now - physically, mentally, financially - just thinking about giving that (houseplants) up feels like going back.

    Funnily enough, it’s my least troublesome plant.

    I got it as a impulse purchase. But the novelty only lasted a few weeks, so I pretty much dismissed it and put it in the bathroom to get more space for plants I liked better. But it endured for a entire year, thanklessly and without a single complaint. No pests, no fertilizer issues, no water problems, no rot or anything. And then it put put it’s first flowers aswell.

    This one really clawed it’s way back into my heart and I consider one of my favorite plants by now. It really earned it.

    It’s currently in my bathroom, which is clean but still not very sighty. And I’m currently trying to kinda trellis it as it has become quite unwieldy and I can’t really move it much without risking it.

    But I’m planning to relocate it after pruning next spring. As soon as the leaves have grown back, there will definitely be pictures! :D
