Seathru,

According to their website, no.

All our varieties are bred using classic and traditional seed breeding techniques without any genetic modification (non-GMO).

“is it legal to use biological waste after consuming those peppers?”
I do not understand this question.

“is is healthy?”
To quote Bill Clinton: “it depends on what the meaning of ‘is’ is”

Seathru,

Suppressors do exist. And are commonly used in close quarters combat. Especially by well funded combatants like the IDF.

Seathru,

I doubt he’s broke. Far more likely that he’s just a bigot.

Seathru,

Not too shabby. Weather is cooling off, days getting shorter, I love it. Work is good. Hired some random cat off the street a couple weeks ago, and while he may not be the most productive member of the team, he’s fitting right in.

Seathru,

I have about the same dryer I’ve been keeping alive for years. I wouldn’t worry too much about the dull spot. That’s likely where the old coil got a hot spot before it failed. It’s just discolored the zinc coating. Shouldn’t effect heat dissipation but it might be more susceptible to rust now.

If you’re not in a big hurry, I would replace that white plastic bearing the drum rides on (you can see it on the very left in the last picture). It’s super squeaky when it fails. If you don’t replace it, at least give it a dollop of high temp grease.

Seathru,

Getting all the old grease off isn’t super important. You mainly just want to get it clean enough to make sure the bearing surface on it and the ball on the back of the drum are smooth and not getting scratched/galled up.

Seathru,

High highs, low lows so far. Monday morning an adorable kitten wandered into my mechanic shop and applied for a job. He’s official pest control manager now unless I find where he came from. He doesn’t know a litter box or the sound of a cat food can opening so it’s probably a stray/feral. But it’s one of the most affectionate cats I’ve come across in a long time.

Tuesday leaving work after a meeting/pets with the new employee, I made it about 2 blocks and someone ran a stop sign and hit me. I’m ok, they are apparently ok (I stayed far back to keep it civil) but my poor 30 year old truck took a pretty hard hit. It’s nothing special to anyone else; but I like it, and have put a lot of blood, sweat, and time into it. Hoping it’s not as bad as it looks.

Anyways, here’s the cat tax: i.imgur.com/ntvdV4V.jpg Hope it brightens y’all’s day.

Elon Musk demanded a cameo in Cyberpunk 2077 while wielding a 200 year old gun: "I was armed but not dangerous" (www.pcgamer.com)

While Elon’s then-partner Grimes was recording her part in the game as cyborg popstar Lizzy Wizzy, the erratic tech billionaire turned up with an antique firearm to “insist” on being included in the game. “The studio guys were like sweating,” Grimes is quoted as saying. Musk adds “I told them that I was armed but not...

Seathru,

With the assets already there, the mod opportunities are endless.

Seathru,

I think Nexus should be able to ultimately decide what they do/don’t host on their platform. Regardless what it is. They have many mods that aren’t my taste. I don’t install them.

Seathru,

I’m also bit worried as folks told me you can miss certain side quests if you advance too fast,

Yeah if you’re wanting to do as many side missions as possible, it’s best to do all the white colored missions first. The yellow one’s aren’t going anywhere and they are sometimes chapter milestones that can lock you out of side missions. But I wouldn’t worry too much about it. A. There are so many quests that are only available at a certain time/place or after certain events, you’ll never hit them all in one play through. and B.

spoilerYou can play a lot of the side missions you missed in the epilogue. Albeit with different dialog.

Take your time and enjoy it, definitely worth it.

Now I’m going to have to fire it up later just to spend a couple hours roaming the wilderness camping, hunting, and fishing with my “Never leaving chapter 3 Arthur”

Seathru,

Like single frequencies/tones (beeps, boops)? Or more complex sounds (dog barking, voice)? A little more specifics about your project would help us give better info.

Seathru,

It sounds like you are looking for something like this: www.adafruit.com/product/2210

If you look around the site, there are lots of helpful tutorials to get you started with it and also help you adapt it to your needs. They also sell most of the extra parts you would need. For example you could add this to make it motion triggered. Their parts aren’t the cheapest tho, you are paying for the ease of use, excellent documentation, and tutorials. If you’re crafty, most of it should be salvageable from e-waste.

Seathru,

Cautiously optimistic. Weather is looking pleasant all week. I’ve managed to get my backlog at work down from about 6 months to 2, so that’s a lot less stress.

Prepping for a dirt bike race next month (hare scramble) and it’s been 4 years since I have; I’m super out of shape but it’ll be fun.

Beehaw on Lemmy: The long-term conundrum of staying here

Yesterday, you probably saw this informal post by one of our head admins (Chris Remington). This post lamented some of the difficulties we’re running into with the site at this point, and what the future might hold for us. This is a more formal post about those difficulties and the way we currently see things....

Seathru,

Tbh without the fediverse, I would likely engage more often.

I think a lot of people would. Being federated means that every comment on every subject gets sent out to every instance beehaw is federated with, even if you delete it. That feels less like sharing a feeling with a community and more like spraying it out into the internet.

Seathru,

Still on a space game kick. Finished up Freelancer and started playing No Man’s Sky’s recent “Voyagers” expedition. It’s still got over a month left so I highly recommend checking it out if you haven’t played the game in a while. Just to see whats new; It’s come a long way.

And picked up Hardspace: Shipbreaker on sale for when NMS starts getting monotonous.

Seathru,

No, I played it at release and was HOOKED. I remember clearing a 3 day holiday weekend so I could play through the whole thing (for the second or third time) in one sitting.

I had somehow missed that a HD remaster was released a couple years ago, so I gave it a shot and got sucked right back in. Still a fantastic game, even if the cut scenes and voice acting are a little dated.

For anyone who hasn’t played it, it’s abandonware now.

HD mod: www.moddb.com/mods/…/freelancer-hd-edition-v06

Seathru,

Wholeheartedly agree. Beehaw’s vibe always felt more like a forum than a feed aggregator. I think that format would fit it better.

Seathru,

Your opinion. But fact is, their choice is why some of us are here. Yes, I would like articles posted to lemmy.world to show up on my all feed here; No, I absolutely would not like to see lemmy.world’s entire userbase here. It would overwhelm the small mod team and likely kill the vibe. The slight inconvenience is worth it.

Seathru,

I’m sure it’s just nostalgia but I used vBulletin forums for so long, that’s what feels like home.

Seathru,

Seathru,

Not blocked for me. beehaw.org/c/[email protected] works just fine. And it wouldn’t if it were defederated.

Seathru,

Thanks for explaining that. I’ve been using links like the above to test if one instance is available from another rather than looking through the /instances list. I guess it’s a poor test (and probably not any less work than just checking the lists).

Seathru,

It’s been a slog with the weather being 105+F outside and 90-95F inside where I have to work. But it’s over now. Got a weekend to rest and hide inside playing video games. I feel sorry for my neglected garden but it’s been so hot I just can’t give it the attention it needs.

Seathru,

Hang in there. I had all mine pulled a few months ago and after the 2nd or 3rd day my mouth still hurt but I felt so much healthier overall. I lived on smoothies and mashed potatoes that first week. Only regret was not having it done years ago.

Seathru,

Pull out as much carpeting as your comfortable taking apart and get some air moving through. The more moving air the better.

Seathru,

And it’s being bankrolled by Tencent.

Seathru,

I hope every one of those pigs got to wallow in shit that day.

    Seathru,

    I don’t think they’re downvoting because of your choice of derogatory terms. They’re downvoting because it’s a stupid take. Find an instance that aligns with what you want to see. Don’t participate in ones that don’t.

    Seathru,

    I had it happen last week. I got a “we see you’ve received your package, how do you like it?” email. Except I hadn’t. Tracking showed it dropped off 2 days earlier. My office door is open to a busy sidewalk and often unattended so I assumed the worst.

    Finally found the culprit on camera. When the carrier left the package, they put it on top of a pile of other packages. As they were leaving, a gust of wind blew it straight into a nearby trash can. Where I happen to put all the empty packages, so it didn’t look out of place. And of course that was the day the trash gets taken out.

    Kind of comical in hindsight. Just glad it wasn’t really anything important.

    Seathru, (edited )

    NiX:

    I love you guys and postal series, but I’m not made of money, if I can get a game for cheaper I’d rather pay less than more.

    Running With Scissors:

    Which is why we’re telling you to pirate our games instead of paying a scammer who will cost us money and probably even get your key revoked Our games are cheap right now through official sites. Is saving a few cents worth lowering the chances for releasing another POSTAL game?

    NiX:

    Isn’t pirating illegal? You want your fans get fines and shit? Now they are on sale so I might pick up some but normally i still rather get the game of g2a for cheaper

    Running With Scissors:

    You can’t get fines if the owners of the IP give you permission to download. Just know that by getting on G2A, we not only get no money, we also have to pay for the chargeback, that’s the core of the problem and it means no new games in the future and no more RWS

    Edit: fixed formatting.

    Seathru,

    It was part of a twitter thread that I’m too much of a luddite to figure out how to link. Last comment: twitter.com/RWSstudios/…/1671832971601408000#m

    Seathru,

    It’s against the TOS unless you are actually giving it away as a gift with no promotional value. …humblebundle.com/…/202712380-Can-I-sell-trade-or…

    Seathru,

    Yeah exactly like that. Damn that’s a good one.

    Here’s another: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy

    Ex Seven Pee Ex Jay - Four Gee Bee Gee Bee - Too In Eye Eee Tee

    Seathru,

    It’s probably not as bad here; But if you posted a game code on reddit without some kind of obfuscation, a bot would grab it in seconds. I was mostly just copying the person I was replying to.

    Seathru,

    Not that I can tell. I cleared the console and repeated the process and nothing showed up.

    Just tried it on Edge and it does the same thing.

    Edit: and tried it on a laptop running linux but also Firefox 116.0.2 and the settings don’t work there either.

    Seathru,

    I figured it was something like that since auto expand and open in a new tab were new options. I only noticed when NSFW stuff wasn’t blurred anymore and just wanted to bring it up in case no one had noticed.

    Absolutely no bother. Appreciate all ya’ll do.

    Seathru,

    Seathru,

    Go on. Git! Bad bot.

    Seathru,

    We already have the tech to let signal lights at intersections know emergency vehicles are approaching so they can direct traffic accordingly. No reason this couldn’t be adopted to autonomous vehicles.

    Seathru,

    I guess I’ll be the oddball that pays mostly in cash. Mostly because I’m self employed and taking cash to the bank across town is one more errand to run. So I’ll pay with cash in person until it’s gone and then switch to card. Also saves the 3-4% card markup a lot of places charge here. I’m in the US.

    Seathru,

    I put my change in a jar when I empty my pockets. About once a year I’ll take it by the bank and treat myself with the couple hundred dollars it cashes out to.

    Are you just throwing yours away?

    Seathru,

    There’s a “Theme” selection in settings to change it to dark mode or follow your browsers default.

    Seathru,

    I also have to replace all the magnetic ballasts in the basement light fixtures with electronic ballasts because we have fluorescent replacement LED bulbs, which only work on electronic ballasts.

    Chiming in because I just finished swapping over 15+ fixtures. You can get LED replacement bulbs that do away with the ballasts entirely. At first I went with the LED retrofit lights that used the existing ballasts but I still had issues with the ballasts failing (because they were all 20-30 years old). Found the “ballast bypass” replacements and swapped everything over.

    The back yard garden is overgrown with weeds, and I need to deal with that. We didn’t do any gardening this year so nature took over… I don’t really have many if any tools to deal with it, so I need to do some garden supply shopping.

    I’m embarrassed how much time and money I put into my garden this spring just to let the weeds take over. It’s so hot out there.

    Seathru,

    They both work fine. I mainly meant if you were having to buy electronic ballasts to make the bulbs you have work, it may be cheaper to buy the bypass bulbs and do away with the ballasts. Same amount of work.

    Seathru,

    Same here. You can get it off archive.org

    Seathru,

    I’ve been hoping Everspace 2 turns out to be a worthy successor. The first one was fun but didn’t scratch the Freelancer itch. I haven’t played the second yet.
