If you were the person in the red coat who waved back at Mae today and was confused why I didn't wave back my apologies. I was confused as to where we know you from and I spent the whole time puzzling over that.

Linus Tech Tips is the “17 Magazine” for people developing a homelab. LTT gives everyone an unrealistic standard of homelab beauty. Real home labs are mostly someone's yard sale card table with an ESD mat and a pile of junk they "don't have time" to clean on them that is all half disassembled.

can you swap "Jewish-American" with "American-Zionist" because the first one could be read as kinda antisemitic and there are a lot of Christians in America who believe in zionism.

Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" was released on this day 62 years ago. I have a first edition & come back to it often, including this paragraph in the chapter "Obligation to Endure." It's worth reading. "We urgently need an end to these false assurances, to the sugar coating of unpalatable facts."

The last paragraph in the Silent Spring chapter Obligation to Endure, reads, in part, " We urgently need an end to these false assurances, to the sugar coating of unpalatable facts... The public must decide whether it wishes to continue on the present road, and it can do so only when in full possession of the facts. In the words of Jean Rostand, "The obligation to endure gives us the right to know."

AI will not help tackle climate change. The "innovations" AI produces will not pay back the carbon emitted. Particularly since most people don't use AI for climate research. And because we *know* what to do to stop climate change, we just aren't doing it.

For short areas no. My father was really worried about keeping gas in the house because my parents knew I liked experimenting with chemistry as a kid. So he was kinda committed to doing the corded thing. I was born in 84 so batteries were not an option yet.

My father uses electric corded snowblower and mower. Basically I suggest avoiding anything with a universal motor or a dc motor. I have had to replace the bridge rectifier in the mower that used on a few times.
