I’ve heard port forwarding is important for seeding, but why is that? Doesn’t your uploaded data still go through your vpn regardless if port forwarding is enabled?

If you reverse your order, the carton will feel more stable in your hands as you use up your eggs. This is because the carton’s mass density moves towards the outer edges, increasing the moment of inertia.

I’m fun at parties, I swear.

I’m a fan of the 01JUN2025 format. It’s unambiguous and uses about the same space as other traditional formats.

Not sure. Anyone want to start some shit so we can find out?

Yep, that’s why birdshot is basically the only safe ammo that can be shot into the air unless you’re in the middle of the ocean or something.

I transferred to a new college and learned the first week of class that they required a few vaccinations I was missing. No problem, the on campus health center can provide them. I confirm with them that they accept my insurance, so I go get the shots.

A few months later, I get a bill in the mail for over $3000. Apparently the health center wasn’t in-network, so I have no idea what they meant by “we accept your insurance.” I layer learned that if I had driven 10 minutes west across the state border, there was an in-network office where those two vaccinations would’ve been completely covered.

I still haven’t paid a penny towards that bill, fuck them. I get daily phone calls from an unknown number, it’s probably collections, but I don’t know for sure since I never answer it. This was years ago and my credit score never took a hit. I’d rather die than reward these parasites with my money.

I’m pretty sure I have a tumor growing on my hip too. I’d get it checked, but between student loans, insane cost of living, and rising costs of literally everything else, I can’t afford to right now. I’m a childless engineer with “great” health insurance and a roommate, so I’m relatively well off. I have no idea why shit hasn’t boiled over yet. Makes me want to depose some CEOs too.

Seriously, from the bottom of my heart, fuck you Apple. Eat shit and die.

They say you need to be home all day to make bread and now I see why! Lol

Thanks for the thorough and thoughtful response, we’ll try it out next weekend!

My girlfriend and I are on a huge sourdough kick right now, and we’d love to start making it ourselves. Do you have a recipe you’d recommend? Any tips and tricks you’ve learned from experience?

Not necessarily. Buttons and switches introduce contact resistance, which in the case of the mushy Duracell buttons, is relatively high and also dependent on how hard they’re pressed.

Ideally, the buttons are pressed very hard to ensure the entire contact area is closed, minimizing the contact resistance from the buttons. A good switch should have little resistance.

Poorly closing the contacts by not pressing the Duracell buttons very hard would result in higher contact resistance (because there’s physically less contact between both halves of the switch), which means less current flows through the strip and less heat is generated. This would look identical to a deader battery with the buttons pressed well.

Thanks for the reminder that English is dumb

These things are downright goofy. I tried to get one in IL, but they outright ban guns made from pot metal for some reason. Screw poor people I guess lol
