No, these devices hold water at the appropriate temperature for long periods of time using extremely good insulation. They provide hot water on-demand after reaching temperature and are used in a way that is somewhat different from kettles.
Since you’re talking specifically about the presidential election, I actually am helping my candidate, since if I and others can get 1% of the popular vote for someone, then they can get easier access to ballots, debates, and federal funding next time.
You can always skip offices that don’t have a good candidate.
Spoiled votes are tracked as a separate statistic!
Sometimes I have to write someone in, but it still counts as a vote!
You guys were voting based on “lesser of two evils” and not based on who you actually like?
I’ve always just voted for the guy I like best. I never felt that voting tactically was truthful.
If everyone was like me we’d have a nicer political climate, I think.
I’ll keep doing that so you can feel free to join me in doing that until we reach the critical mass point.
Yes, typically with two entirely separate disks, not just partitions on the same physical disk.
I wasn’t worried about it being proprietary until I saw the founder reasoning for not having the source be open under a nonpermissive licence.

I decided to go with logseq because of it.
It also syncs with all my devices using my own servers, instead of needing to trust obsidian/logseq.
Oh and I forgot, a big one, I engage the cats if they show interest in my task.
When cooking they can smell safe things, if I’m working on tech i have a very large screw and bolt for them to play with/try out instead of my small ones.
Cats are social and want to be included, if you give them the option to do “parallel play” I think it will improve what people see as problem behaviors that are really just begging to be included.
Fetch: grab the toy if they play with it and it ends up close by, use verbal reinforcement
Names: the cats recognize everyone’s name in the hous thanks to reinforcement learning
Locations: the cats know where I’m going and can beat me there because I tell them where I’m going, sounds like reinforcement learning again?
Activities: set phrases like “let’s go”, “come on”, “let’s get some food”, “jump up”, etc, all by reinforcement training.
Paw-touching: slowly touch more and more often, for longer, until nail clipping is a breeze. Hmm… Might be reinforcement training again.
To end bad behaviors, hiss, it’s a built-in “no” for cats.
If you get the grounding box you can have an antistatic collar for the dog and a strap for the human. Plug both in and you’re both at the same potential.
Alternatively the human can touch the banana plug side of the strap, as the in-built resistor will “slowly” equalize the charges between you. I say slowly because in human terms as soon as you touch its already done.
The ugg boots may be electrically isolating as well, so a heel-strap is typically worn in ESD environments to overcome insulated soles. In combination with a grounding floor mat, this works without having to think too much about it.
Additionally, you can get a humidifier and maintain a relative humidity above 40%. Thankfully you don’t need insulation to do this!

Yep, door already has a hole in it, get a cheap kwikset at the big box and slap that in there
If trans people die after being denied by the sexologist, then the safety is illusory.
We cannot exist when we are merely tolerated.
Some of the states actually do give a fuck about us and it’s important to call that out along with the states that want us dead.
Yes her map is good, I just wish it didn’t show “states with a possibility in 2 years” in such a dark red color as it is misleading when compared to like… Actual bad states.
Yeah I’m only really familiar with Quebec
So Canadá is going to let trans people get treatment with informed consent model, right?
Right?
Some of our states are really good for trans people. A map of which regions yo avoid would be far more helpful than a blanket warning.
The worst part is how confusing it was for older people, who were worried the whole app was going to not work.
Signal was upset that “oh well some people can’t figure out what’s SMS and what’s encrypted”, but that was kind of… good? You could give parents, grandparents, etc an SMS app that was easy as the old one, and secure with the right people.
Don’t get me started on the chat color fiasco. No signal, I SHOULD NOT CHANGE COLOR. I assign colors to people to distinguish them, I don’t change who I am based on who I talk to.
Robot vacuums are something non-tech people love, then they use the app and they don’t love it anymore haha.
Shout out to Valetudo, which saved the day on our chinese roombas.
I am not quite happy with how the current iteration of the documentation no longer supports DIYing the firmware, it is actually still possible and you don’t have to use dustbuilder.
Yeah I’m not super happy with Signal’s level of openness, but I also wouldn’t call it proprietary. It is open source and I could run my own server if I really wanted to, but that would just make it harder.
At the time we were moving from a walled garden to one of 3 encrypted OSS solutions, and I had all of them until we naturally coalesced on one.
SMS at the time didn’t work due to not having cell service, and while we “have” RCS now to solve that issue, I don’t know anyone who uses it.
Yes, this is correct.
I could not have used SMS for most of the day since I worked on the top floor of a multi-level basement. I had wifi and a VPN though.
At the time I moved to signal, Google Message, or chat or whatever was being replaced with Allo and Duo and everyone was pretty un-jazzed about the whole thing.
It shouldn’t matter as long as the sites are developed only with open standards.
We already have webcompat for anything truly broken.
