Every time I've asked them about an app for Samsung or LG tvs - the two most popular brands they've pushed back "we're volunteers, we don't use those TVs, it's not on our to-do list but feel free to code it you

Sigh... I don't know how the internet has convinced people this shit requires some magic incantation to cook eggs. I promise you I can cook eggs in any brand new lodge pan you hand me without issue. In fact if you sand blast the factor

Literally just cook with it. The main thing with everything except for teflon pans is you need to bring them up to temp before cooking, and you need to use some fat of some kind (olive oil, butter, whatever). The oil itself will provide the

I made the mistake of moving for a role back in 2018. Money was super good but it was to a location I wouldn't want to be if the role wasn't there. Literally 45 days after we completed the move they decided to eliminate the role e

I wonder how seasonal energy prices are. Seems intuitive that as winter abates and heating demand drops, energy prices would fall.

I've lived all over the country (35ish moves in 41 years). There are a lot of things you can do to make other areas more appealing vs California (or the west coast in genera), but one thing you can't really fix is the weather. A l

Work from office is better for people who LIKE work from office if everyone does it. The people who don't want to go specifically don't want to, to avoid those folks that want access to interrupt everyone around them. Honestly, I

That's a whole other animal. I mean why is California always dealing with water shortages but still growing almonds? My comments here are talking about residential stuff. I think I mentioned above that commercial detergents also still

I wish HN had a forum signature like function so I could just put a "all of my comments written through the lens of living in the United States". Most US dishwashers require you to hook up to hot water supply line. Problem is sinc

You only throw fertilizer down on the lawn a couple times a year if at all and of course most of it is taken up by the plants you are feeding it to, whereas most people wash their dishes at least once a day and all of that water ends up dow

You can blame detergent regulations for this. About a decade or so back phosphates were banned from detergents. The problem is that was the thing that made them work really well. In order to compensate for less effective detergents, cycle t

Looking at your average suburb, there are about 110 houses on quarter acre lots per mile of paved 2 lane road within said suburb, plus an additional bit to connect to an arterial street (which also connects other suburbs) and back out to ma

The feces and homeless comments were specifically geared towards the sort of people packing taking place in SF. I think there is some sort of rule about making assumptions about commentors, but as far as exposure, I have it in spades. First

This is factually incorrect and easily verifiable so. The vast majority - 80% of the US population prefers single family homes. There are 138 Million households in the US and fully half - 68 million - reside in owner occupied single family

I think all the people who have washers and dryers in their own homes would disagree that having a laundromat on their street would be a value add. It would just bring traffic from outside of their neighborhood into it. I'm not making

Fair enough - I'm clearly paying a premium to keep a cleaner interior on the build. I tend to run exactly one card - the video card, and aim to get everything else onboard, but as you pointed out that's definitely not the only way

I haven't bought a non-4K monitor in over 6 years. I honestly don't know anyone who is still using 1080p monitors as daily drivers if they are also using the machine for productivity or media work. But your point is not invalid.

AM5 w/ PCIE 5, DDR5 support and 10GBe? I've already eaten the cost, but I would love a link to the board you found. I saw a lot in that price range with 2.5 or 5GB but didn't run into any with 10GBe. That said I may have miss

This is only true if your primary game preference is casual games. The mac studio lacks a discrete graphics card. Ignoring the OS, the whole ARM vs x86, and Rosetta, wine, whatever stumbling blocks - just lack of a discrete GPU is enough to

Just built a new rig last week. This isn't at all surprising. Prices are so out of whack right now. $1000 used to be the ceiling for the highest end video cards (like a 1080 Ti), now $1000 is the floor. There are no good current gen (o

To quote Matthew Mercer - You can certainly try. But in all seriousness, run a test. As far as tests go this one is about as low cost as they get. In general, I don't expect purely ai written content to do all that well - and that'

Also why do you have four H1's? You should have exactly 1, and on your home page it should be your brand name. This whole site is a mess. Instead of trying to be fancy I'd recommend you just make your marketing site on something l

What's to be done about it though? Round the clock care requires people. Those people have to be paid. Paid enough to attract people to do the work. Someone has to pay for it. Shifting it to the tax payer base doesn't change the m

This seems pretty reasonable honestly. Who the heck needs to tweet more often than 100 tweets per hour continuously?
