Leaving technical considerations aside: she’s your mom and she would probably be happier of you get her the same console as yours.

It will give you to something in common and give her a connection with you each time she use it.

I’m not going to share it here because it’s code I’ve written. I’m hiding in my own shame

Articles are mostly AI slop. For a bit YouTube was actually the best way to have information written by an actual person.

Not anymore unfortunately, now I honestly don’t know how to reliably find AI free information online.

Does it matter of it’s true or not?

It’s been years that MAGA is showing us that truth does not matter,

Congrats, you are now Flemish!

To give some context: in Belgium there is two main regions, Flanders and Wallonia. Flemish people speaks Flemish Dutch and Walloons speak French.

Since Flemish Dutch and French are the two official language of Belgium a lot of Fleming are learning French as a secondary language to be able to communicate with Walloons. Walloons on the other hand don’t care to learn Flemish Dutch at all.

So as consequence a lot of Flemish do know French but refuse to speak French with Walloons.

So as a French person I ended several time in a situation where I’m trying to communicate in English with a Fleming who refuse to use French with me, until he realize by my accent that I’m not Walloons, then he would start speaking to me in French.

It’s a shame because salt water pools are honestly so much better and I think overall it was cheaper for us as well.

Instead of adding chlorine every week the salt system just keeps the chlorine level at the right minimal level all the time. So no chlorine smell in the pool and the pool was much cleaner.

I was in a situation similar to this one in real life: having to adjust the salt level in a pool.

In metric:

The pool is 8*4 m long and 2m deep on average, the current salt level is 2g/l and the salt comes in 20kg bags.

How many bags of salts do I need to pour in the pool to adjust the salt level to at least 3g/l ?

Answer:

! The pool contains 8m4m2m= 64m³ or 64000l of water, I need an extra 1g/l of salt per litres so 64000l*1g/l = 64000g or 64 kg. So with 4 bags I’ll have enough salt.

In imperial:

The pool is 20*10ft long and 5ft deep on average, the current salt level is 2000ppm and the salt comes in 40lbs bags.

How many bags of salts do I need to pour in the pool to adjust the salt level to at least 3000ppm?

Answer:

! I’m just gonna drive to the store with my truck to pick up 2 bags at the time and see if it’s enough, no way I’m doing the calculation.

I think in on Wayland now.

But honestly I don’t know, I’m just doing updates as they come and it just works.

Moderation is the issue with pizza, at least for me.

I’ve been making pizza and pasta from scratch. It’s basically the exact same ingredients:

• flour
• tomatoes
• cheese

But when I’m making pizza I know that I can almost double the amount of flour because we are eating way more pizza than pasta.

It’s a chicken and eggs problem, without cars the nearest place to spend money wouldn’t be 20 miles away.

Heart of palm as well

I believe the vast majority of cultivated human cells are cancerous cells anyway.

By itself, it’s does not solve anything.

However it gives some extra data that can be used by the printer firmware.

The NFC tag contains data about the right printing temperatures, the color, the amount of filament left in there spool …

So a lot of QOL features can be developed with that. For example

• having a message of the amount of filament left in not enough to finish the print I’m about to start,
• auto adjust temperatures depending on the loaded filament,
• importing a library of available filament in the slicer just by taping the spool on the NFC reader.
• using this library of filament for multicolor/multi material printing. So instead of printing selecting each head individually in the slicer and then having to remember to load the right filament, right color in each head you can just select the filament you actually want and the printer will manage.

I love borscht.

You can also start fermenting beetroots to add to the soup, I think traditionally the recipe was using fermented beets.

It quite easy to do, lacto-fermented vegetables have a lot of health benefits and it being umami and a slight tanginess to the soup that brings it to a complete new level.

Me, trying to find where did I put the tool that I had in my hand 2 minutes ago

About reparability, kobo has a partnership with ifixit for parts and repair guide.

You can have a look at Docs

It’s developed by the French and German government with the goal of replacing google docs for governments workers.

I don’t want to imagine the level of procrastination I would have if I were immortal.

I have a rule for my kids is that I never say no to fruits and I try to always have fruits in the fruit basket (as long as they eat the whole thing and leave a half eaten fruit somewhere in the house).

My two year old is really enjoying that and can eat two whole apples and some grapes in a row. Sure he will not eat anything at dinner after that but I can’t be mad at him for eating fruits.
