Fantastic, this was exactly what I needed to get into my most ambitious project that starts tomorrow, thanks!

Obi@sopuli.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What seemingly backwards solutions have worked for you in life?8·7 days agoI grew up in Asia and had a chipped playstation 1 as a kid. It allowed it to read copies, was pretty standard stuff over there the copies could be found in legit stores and everything.
Anyway it started struggling to read the CDs. We figured out if we turned it upside down, it would be able to read them no problem. I suspect it was gravity making the lens come a bit closer to the CDs but don’t know for sure.
It was certainly funny having it upside down, worked a charm.
I want to hang a picture of it in my house so when guests compliment me on it I can say “Oh you like it? Me too. It’s a picture of Uranus”
Obi@sopuli.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you support the Fediverse financially? If so how do you distribute contributions between Client/Instance/Platform?8·8 days agoI donate monthly to my instance.
Obi@sopuli.xyzto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Peanut butter with strawberry jelly is better than peanut butter with grape jellyEnglish3·8 days agoYes, I’m a European who’s been enlightened about PB&J by my Canadian partner but I too much prefer it with Raspberry jam. Or what we call “fruits of the forest”, also red fruits.
I tried it with an apricot/passion fruit one the other day and it was surprisingly nice. We don’t really have grape jam here afaik.
Our PB is also a bit different though, it’s literally just crushed peanuts (100% ingredient).
Obi@sopuli.xyzto World News@lemmy.world•France charges 18-year-old for planning attacks in first 'Incel' terrorism caseEnglish1·8 days agoIt’s basically the translation to teenager, so up to 20, over 20 they could still be called “grand ado” (big teen) if they’re still not really mature.
Never had that but doesn’t seem sketchy sanitary-wise, we can eat our eggs raw here without risk, the salmon would of course need to be sushi-grade. I do question the combination of flavours though, I love egg yolk and I love raw salmon, but together I’m not sure, I’d have to try it…
Obi@sopuli.xyzto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•We really don't want to talk about our problems1·9 days agoI think it’s not quite the same if you decided it, and can leave or connect to the internet at any moment.
Obi@sopuli.xyzto News@lemmy.world•Lorde’s new CD is so transparent that stereos can’t even read it6·9 days agoYeah all this does is make the collector value go higher.
Obi@sopuli.xyzto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Opinin' O'Brien knows the value of next day lamb stew2·11 days agoOh of course, you meant an electric counter top ice maker. For some reason you said “I don’t have a fridge” and my brain translated that to “I have no electricity and live in a cabin in the forest”… I was eagerly googling how to make home made ice using some fancy old process… Yes, I am quite dumb at times.
Obi@sopuli.xyzto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What are the games you played in your youth that you still play today?English2·12 days agoI tried retail again last year in a similar way, they’ve actually built so much mechanics now to catch up. But it still felt like a massive task to catch up to actual active players. Private server is a good shout, I’ll take a look next time I get the itch.
Obi@sopuli.xyzto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What are the games you played in your youth that you still play today?English5·12 days agoIf I could I’d still be playing wow but it’s just not the same without the plentiful free time for it.
Yes am I unaware of a strange way of displaying these metrics or did they just add the % sign for no reason?
Obi@sopuli.xyzto World News@lemmy.world•Nato secretary says 'daddy' Trump stopped Israeli-Iran conflictEnglish4·16 days agoI try to reason myself that he’s playing the long game and whatever but god damn it feels dirty.
Obi@sopuli.xyzto World News@lemmy.world•Nato secretary says 'daddy' Trump stopped Israeli-Iran conflictEnglish6·16 days agoThere is and it’s not quite at the level all these headlines are making it sound like. He says something like “daddy has to use his authority” or something like that. Still bad but these headlines make it sound like he was groveling in a gimp suit.
That is the genuine argument I see people use to defend farehnheit so this checks out.
Came in here to say detectorists, now I’m leaving with a new show to rewatch, score!
Because it’s their catfish identity I guess.
