Gas is combusted in your kitchen, and that combustion is of course not perfect, and in at atmosphere mostly N2. What's hard to believe about that?

Prius are pretty well known for being cheap to drive for a long while no? Sure, they are always going to be more complex than a full electric but good gasoline cars are don't have any huge maintenance costs for a good long while.

Some hybrids don't, they just have a very small engine that charges the battery.

Hybrids get a bad rep. It makes for such a difference: knowing that you don't need to worry about that 1%.

And that's far from the only thing Excel does quietly. It also changes comma's to semi-colons based on system locale. It's braindead.

Oh I have no doubt that was the aim in the HoC remake. It just wasn't any good, unlike Succession. Not all character development and dynamics are interesting. The scope and pacing in the original was just perfect. Just because you can

Good advice: I also found the start not a good salesman but some peristence worth the wait.

I thought the original was scoped and paced perfectly: no fluff, all action (of the suspensy kind), didn't wait for itself to peter out. The remake just drags on and on and on. Tons of irrelevant detail and uninteresting sidestories.

If you do not consider the ancient, famous libraries to be public, Wikipedia puts ~1600 as a first date of modern public libraries. While copyright has a first occurance date in the 1700s, in some locales much later. Either way it seems pub

Remember that post about the $104K Netlify bill? They said they'd introduce means to avoid this, but as of now, I can't find any such feature. I've finished a transition to CF Pages last week, but I still hoped Netlify would

Maybe. Meat consumption isn't declining as of yet. Let's start with treating animals with respect, don't feed them (literal in some cases) trash and take hygiene way more seriously. We have a pretty good idea how disease spre

I miss how production focused those applications were. There's some really good apps on F-Droid, but it's clear those apps come from a different community. PalmOS apps were for people trying to automate the boring or laborious bit

I hear you, but with things we stand a chance of ingesting I really like to flip the onus. I think we can do better than we did with asbestos.

As there was for every version of Windows before it. The results used to be shared directly in iso form, which made the subculture illegalish, and required you to hang around in the right places to learn about them.

But is it convenient? Really? I've tried this stuff and it's been without exception a subpar and slow experience. I can see how it could be a great experience, it's just that it's always contracted out, framework upon fr
