We still have a lot of slag heaps in the top of some of our local hills. They make for some interesting mountain bike runs but they aren’t exactly diverse in floor coverage. Some pits are now tourist attractions but I don’t know what ongoing work is done to maintain the abandoned ones.

Nice. A friend of mine built one with ball bearings: https://youtu.be/40DkJ9vt5CI?si=2TupxpdiZkEg3nVB

Very binary, much wow.

Quite. Go to the big services that know how to moderate and maintain (and importantly pay for) a public square. But also encourage the interesting ones enable federation for wider coverage.

There are some advantages to algorithms for discovery - it’s certainly is more user friendly. It’s just a shame they tend to enshitify or become toxic. Bluesky seem to offer an API of sorts to plug in feeds you create. Perhaps open algorithms are more accountable?

Did you sparge the grain when you were done mashing?

So similar to premium bonds? Usually those are government backed though.

The phrase “no loose lottery” should be a red flag right away.

I write assembly for test cases and early setup code. I read far more assembly than I write.

Tired eyes, I read cop as CCP 🤪

I know she kinda flat lined during the 2020 race but surely that’s something she can prep for? Stood next to Trump she just needs to be coherent. The VP often gets the crappy jobs that are hard to solve so I guess she has too run on the administration’s record as a whole as she was “in the room”.

I think he probably sees a difference in serving out seven months and doing a full 4 year term. Do you think after 3 and a half years as VP she can benefit from 6 months in charge versus fighting the actual election?

I don’t think anyone in America knows what an actual communist is. Sometimes it seems the US thinks us Europeans are all collectivist class warriors.

For range it doesn’t add much in most cases. But it also depends on how long between journeys you have. If you’re traveling in a van and you are going to be stationary for a few weeks at a time then it can start to make sense, maybe with an extra fold out.

You can, they are called canals. Look at the Nile delta and the network of irrigation trenches used to spread water from the river to the wider areas. There are a number of dam projects in Africa which are all about managing water flows.

The principle problem is when your divert water it’s usually at a cost to another area that was using it.

I didn’t know you could use mods on the steam deck. Are there any that make sorting through your inventory easier?

I’m not sure if that is the op or Lemmy cropping stuff. I’ve seen similar when I’ve tried to post stuff.

I’m just getting to the end of the Dragonborn DLC before returning to continue my first run through Skyrim.

I don’t think Kamikaze’s came about until much later in the war. I’m sure a few heavily damaged planes went down taking targets with them though.

There are even some reading guides depending on what sub-genre you are interested in if you don’t want to read the whole cannon. They all standalone pretty well though.
