Hello! I have considered getting into bee keeping as a retirement thing but I don’t know a good resource to start learning.
Are there any good online communities you can recommend, forums, etc?

This is probably the best explanation I’ve seen so far and really helped me actually understand what it means when we talk about “weights” for LLMs.
Mmmmmmm me likey.
GIVE ME BACK ASHERON’S CALL!!
Patron/vassal pyramid scheme experience gain system that incentivized helping out less experienced players because you got a % of their XP (at no loss to them) and their vassals, etc etc…
Back in the day when you didn’t have an online guide for everything. World was HUGE and there was no real fast travel, but there was a crazy portal network. Random portals in the middle of nowhere that would dump you out at other random parts of the map. Portals exiting dungeons randomly take you somewhere else. I had a spiral ring notebook of portal coords and sometimes to get somewhere it was 7-8 hops through a few dungeons… Or hours running across the map trying to not get janked by high level mobs or other PVP players.
That era of MMO will never live again, and it’s a damn shame.
I still listen to this at least weekly, the album is in my regular gym rotation because
A) it’s hard for me to listen to lyric heavy music and count reps correctly (brain no work good during ugga dugga) and
B) It’s amazing.
You need zero poker experience to play it. It’s not a poker game at all, just uses poker hands for scoring, and if you don’t know them they’re all displayed if you hit esc.
It wasn’t for me either at first but I gave it another shot and it got its hook into me.
What helped me was looking up a scoring/basic strategy guide that helped me figure out what super rookie mistakes I was making - this gave me a better eye for strategy when I was playing, which in turn translated to me enjoying the deck building aspect (which is a mechanic I know I enjoy).
The game is good, and really great to pick up and put down in busts if you don’t have a lot of time.
Hope you end up liking it eventually! I LOVE poker of all types, rogue likes, and deck builders so I thought this was a smash hit when I heard about it, but yeah, took a while to love it.
Maybe, but those questions are part of the normal daily zeitgeist. Everyone is exposed to those concepts and services through natural osmosis, but when I wanted to join Lemmy I got an app and I didn’t realize until I started trying to use it that it was a distributed system. Then I’m like, wait what? And I had to go read some stuff about it. Wasn’t anything too crazy but I was confused at first.
I wouldn’t recommend keeping credit card limits low to only mitigate fraud risk - credit card companies generally will take the hit for unauthorized use, aka stolen information, and send you a new card. So keeping the limit low in an effort to make sure that if your info is stolen they’ll only be able to steal $1000 or $2000 isn’t really necessary, and only affects your ability to use credit and have a better credit score (because your % of utilization of your overall credit limit goes into your FICO).
Instead, review your purchases monthly and inform the card company of charges you didn’t make as soon as you see them.
DEBIT cards are a different story. They’re a direct link to your bank account funds and there’s no intermediary that is willing to take a hit, it’s your bank vs you, so if your debit card info (and pin) are exposed you’re much more vulnerable. So I wouldn’t recommend EVER using debit these days, there’s zero reason to, but if you have to then your advice in your OP is more appropriate.
I can’t speak for others, but when I joined I was definitely confused by instances, federated internet, moderation variances, and how to operate the various ~ 4 beta apps I downloaded at the same time.
I’m definitely not a tech normie, but it was still unfamiliar and I would never have migrated if I hadn’t been fed up with Reddit.
Most people don’t want to have to look up guides to figure out how a system works, they just want to download an app that their friends all use and move on with their day. Blocking instances you don’t like? Doing research to find a “home” instance? Ain’t nobody got time for that.
I raise the BS flag. A chef is responsible for creating and planning the restaurant menu, which means they have to create dishes that fit the restaurant niche and local customer base’s interest, while also fitting the recipes into the workflow of the kitchen setup, ingredient availability from suppliers, etc. They have to worry about prep capacity, yield percentages vs cost of the menu items, etc.
I studied culinary arts and worked in the restaurant industry for eight years before I got out. There is a difference between a chef and a cook and a kitchen manager. Were you a line lead, or kitchen manager? I might buy that.
The chef is not just someone who wants to break their back until they make it up the hierarchy, they’re usually the one who is passionate enough that AFTER breaking their back all day they go home and STILL COOK. I went home after 14 hour days and made cereal or whatever because I was sick of cooking.
Never once have I ever heard an actual chef call themselves a “professional chef.” Most actual chefs I’ve met are snobbishly anti-nonstick as well, but that’s not necessarily a rule. ALL of them could make a Teflon pan last more than a year or two.
Your comments stink, I don’t buy it, unless you were a glorified kitchen manager that the restaurant called a “chef” but you had no real job in making the menu or new recipes.
I have been a pro chef as well.
Doubt
Wow. Did you pull that from your dealership employee talking points guidebook?
Why is it that every other industry is able to handle recall corrections without a dealership model?
One of the advantages of going mechanical is customization. Don’t want the LEDs at all? Remove them from your build. Even without PCB hot swapping: no one will stop you desoldering LEDs from your keyboard.
Yeah OP if you want to live the ultra elite mech keyboard life you should be totally fine with just buying something and spending a ton of time desoldering a crap load of tiny components off of it. That’s the best part about mechanical keyboards, is spending hundreds of dollars on them and then also needing to invest in a bunch of soldering gear and time to make sure you can skillfully enough disassemble electronics at the component level to not damage your newly purchased expensive device.
Took me years, but yes.
This was back in the day when you could easily source stuff to mix your own juice though. I was vaping 3ml and I stepped down 0.5ml every month until I was vaping just flavor. At that point I’d carry my vape around but use it WAY less. Eventually I’d get sick of bringing it with me and just stopped using it.
Then I’d cave again, and restart the process.
Took me a few years, but my vapes are gone and I only smoke when I’m shithoused and around a bunch of smokers, which is a maybe once every couple years event now?
I’m not sure how it would work these days. Everything is packaged, can you even mix your own nic content? Fucking big tobacco fucked up the market.
Even just switching to vaping full time is better than smoking, so get your family member one and hope for the best.
Is this how you respond to people normally in person also?
I hard disagree with one of your positions; I think 0 F is cold but 100 F is insane. I assume we grew up in different climates. I say this only to make the point that it’s subjective, but 0-100 is still the range of what people generally find tolerable.
Nice incoherent rant bro
You know that people used to pay for newspapers right? Local tv news was free on maybe one or two channels, but anything else was on cable tv (paid for) or newspapers.
We WANT news to cost money. If you expect it to be free to consume, despite all the costs associated with getting and delivering journalism (let’s see, big costs just off the top of my head: competitive salaries, travel to news worthy sites, bandwidth to serve you content, all office space costs, etc), then the only way they can pay for it is to serve outrageous amounts of ads in tiny, bite sized articles that actually have no substance, because the only revenue they get is ad views and clicks.
That is NOT what we want. Paywalls aren’t bad unless we’re talking scientific research. Please get out of the mindset of everything should be free, don’t sneer at “authors need money” mf they DO if you want anything that’s worth a damn.
The fact you’re getting dunked on for this comment shows how delusional people are.
Lol
Your reading comprehension is so, so bad
Thank you so much!
I hadn’t really considered how much of the knowledge is local. That makes sense though, in a duh why didn’t I already think of that kind of way.
I’m not ready to get started yet but I like reading about potential future hobbies or things I just find generally interesting, such as bee keeping, so the general knowledge will be fine for now.
