Uranium 🟩

If you really want that passive poison effect, you need to get fiestaware: bright orange/yellow ceramics where the concentration of uranium is way higher and it’s used as the glaze!

It’s known to leech into acidic foods, such as tomato sauces with pasta.

I also feel like we can also add antique top hats to this; I recently found out that my grandfather’s childhood top hat, which I used to play with all the time growing up, contains mercury nitrate

Out of curiosity, have you come up with a reason why it tasted so tree like?

What colour did the mead end up being?

My friend has so far fried 4 or 5 steamdecks, ROG Ally and two power banks before he took my advice to buy a type c cable tester and to stop using any charger that didn’t come with the device until he could test them.

Turned out it was a damaged cable, I think it was a CC line was no longer working.

I’ve had a couple of cheaper Chinese type c and usb A multi port chargers fail; I manage to fry like 3 sex toys before I realised the type A ports were outputting 12v, and at some point something went wrong and the type c fried my phone (which I guess is on me for continuing to use the charger after the issue with the type A ports)

Idk how true that is, it’ll be highly dependent on what you’re trying to dissolve.

This sounds to me more like the advice I’ve heard for using isopropyl for sterilizing equipment and surfaces, its more to do with how quickly the pure stuff evaporates. Evaporate too quickly and it doesn’t sterilize, whereas 70% is best of both worlds.

To freak us out when we’re a little bit too high…

Whilst I’ve got no particular suggestions for it, I’d suggest taking a look at humble bundle, they do games bundles (and other book/asset bundles) at very good prices, normally focusing on a genre/publishes/studio/franchise. This is how a lot of people get going with steam and start to build a library of games, the bundles are often cheaper than the listed price of a single game.

Did you read the description of the book the guy linked?

This is an objective biographical study of Crowley written by someone who lived and worked intimately with him. Dr. Regardie observed “The Great Beast” at close quarters while serving as his personal secretary. The Eye in the Triangle was written many years later, after long contemplation. Regardie combines the psychological insight afforded by his professional training as a Reichian analyst with his grasp of Crowley’s magical personality.

It’s likely that the passage wasn’t written by Crowley himself, so a source like the one linked may be useful.

Also Libgen if you’d rather download the book and ctrl+f the passage you’re looking for

I’m going to take a slightly different approach of what productivety means here; for me it’s literally just making my things in my life less time consuming, easier to access and return to.

With that in mind, I use Google photos to automatically back up my photos, this could be anything from wiring diagrams, patio brick layouts, a quote in a book, to a mushroom I’m wanting to identify.

I use the app plantnet if I’m wanting to identify a plant.

I use the app seeker to download music from soulseek

I upload any research papers/books downloaded from scihub/libgen to gdrive for easier access in the future.

This is of course ignoring all of the notes/timers/reminders I use my phone for as well

Or using any legacy hardware such as the playstation eyetoy camera, a usb keyboard with a built in piano keyboard, some old random TV tuner card

Then there’s the hardware which windows only ever had 32bit drivers for, meaning even if you find the drivers on some obscure dodgy site they’ll never work.

Then there’s the whole bs of windows not allowing unsigned drivers.

None of these issues on Linux

I’m sure you know this, but that’s exactly how a town got turned in to a EPA superfund site due to Dioxin contamination, because of a fuck up over chain of command for waste oil from the creation of napalm or pesticides(IIRC?). The guy running the spraying business didn’t know, which I can believe, but the company that paid for him to dispose of it should’ve informed him.

It will change the screen quality slightly, though I like to think of it as free anti-aliasing

Though here you go friend, I used their steamdeck protector, though I’ve linked the switch one

You can get matte plastic ones for less than £10 for two

I mean those statements seem like they’re in contradiction of each other; if attention spans are lower (which I don’t disagree with) then people are more likely to debate/discuss a wider range of topics though perhaps in less detail.

This doesn’t necessarily mean collectively people will be able to hold onto these points to bring about effective change, though it doesn’t preclude it either.

The only app I recommend was Obtanium, the rest of the listed things are app sources (places where open source apps are hosted, like GitHub)

Sorry if this wasn’t clear!

Recently it’s been Obtanium, basically it allows you to add apps which are hosted on GitHub/other app sources which don’t have auto updating, and have them automatically check and offer to update!

It’s been really useful for Lemmy clients (liftoff/Jerboa)/any android apps from:

GitHub

GitLab

Codeberg

F-Droid

IzzyOnDroid

Mullvad

Signal

SourceForge

SourceHut

APKMirror (Track-Only) APKPure

Third Party F-Droid Repos

Jenkins Jobs

Steam

Telegram App

VLC

Grossly gilded gorilla grapple?

I can believe it; in the UK our fire regs have become rather stringent due to the Grenfell fire, though those changes are mostly on flats/buildings more then 3(?) storeis etc.

The PVC external cladding can melt from a mid to large sized bonfire 10-15 foot away. We can’t use it to clad houses above the 2nd floor, though there are exceptions if your replacing existing cladding. So if you want to add a former to your loft you have to use tiles now.

Though there’s this interesting product called magply which is roughly as strong as ply, but is made from magnesium oxide and silicate. It’s considered incombustible so you can clad with it, then render it.

I wonder if we’ll start seeing different materials used in areas prone to forest fires

What app are you using friend?

I’m currently using liftoff and every link is working correctly, many apps have had issues with how link handling works, so I was pleasantly surprised to see it working in today’s update

Posting the link to the community in a different format as for some reason it’s not coming up when I search for it
