Wait, does the hyperloop make sense to you?
lay a wooden spoon (best material for what we want) diagonally across the top of the pot, directly touching the surface of the water
Wait. Are you holding the wooden spoon all along, or letting it fall into the water? How can you put a wooden spoon across the top of a pot and have it touch the water, without the pot being totally full? I am boggled.

I haven’t seen that US standard of measurement yet! I didn’t know they do resolution as well.

0·3 days agoIt’s not shit, it’s just easily hackable. If a real person recommends a song or band, I let most of my defenses down and try to find why it was recommended.
I really, really know one of their songs thanks to Guitar hero. YYZ goes hard, but I don’t really listen to any Rush either.
Yeah, it goes deep. They used it to make Anthony Hopkins scarier for the Silence of the Lambs poster, so you’re definitely not alone!
A friend can’t stand their flight pattern. It’s too chaotic. I find misquitos and flies peskier, so I think this one might be a phobia.
Yeah, but you gotta learn to love the bomb. After they stole my laptop and backup drive (only had 1 backup, silly me), I became disappointed in local storage. When they killed liveleak, I knew the adage ‘the internet remembers’ was hollow and only the short-term memory thrives, if that.
From what I gather, hoarding music, movies and newer tv shows for preservation is unnecessary, but if you come across an old TV casette recording of a broadcast TV show, digitize it and upload it to Anna’s Archive.
Good luck honing your hoarding skills. I too prefer local copies. Who wants to sit through buffering?
Ahhh, now I understand your problem. You’re a datahoarder! Yeah, it kinda sucked to collect media back in the day. In the early 00’s I had a neighbour who collected mp3s - he didn’t care what type of music it was, he just collected 'em. I didn’t understand at the time, but now I see he was a budding archivist.
I could get half a season of Friends on a written CD with divx. I’d say the bottleneck was the DL speed for that era.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I make the most out of a mediocre laptop?
1·13 days agoYou might have a chance with ryzen master.
I don’t know if your cpu has this option unlocked, but you can tinker with the tdp to give the little ryzen that could some more power. Probably a great way to fry your machine and leave you without.
I did tinker with the linux alternative and it didn’t feel faster (or hotter), so your miles may vary from 0 to holy shit I don’t have a working laptop with a tiny sliver of it being able to boost more maybe? Oh, and if it does work, you will need some special cooling solution.

2·1 month agoLove ‘em! I think one of Banks’ Culture books even has a river running through one. I really believe it’s more a matter of when and not if. We probably won’t see one, unless longevity treatments become a thing.

You seem to be someone who appreciates linguistics, so I’ll share the word Hungarians use to describe a (laughing) fit - (röhögő)görcs, which literally translates to cramp.



Bud Spencer also had a seperate thing going with the Piedone series.
After some hungarian duckduck-fu, and I found this:
La dolce vita
La ciociara
Le notti di Cabiria
Alright, this is a fun rabbit hole. So, we have a ton of Fellini movies, 8½ being one I actually heard of (and might even watch one day I have patience for subtitles again). That led me to Marcello Mastroianni, who has an extensive catalogue and seems to be a big thing (he’s also familiar). You might as well look through Sophia Lauren’s earlier works as well.
If newer ones are also in the run, I’d personally recommend La vita è bella, and just generally Roberto Benigni. His segment in Night on Earth is just laugh out loud spectacular.
