Not enough songs out there for the people who know they were the problem.

Also that.

Hah, thanks. The original discussion thread I linked in my first reply was full of differing opinions on that topic but everyone was approaching it from a “this works for me but you do you” angle. I’m disappointed and apologize the same topic under this post was so inflammatory. That wasn’t even what the post was about.

Edit: Oh, I replied to this from the inbox but am now realizing this was addressed to the room :facepalm:.

I’m eventually going for a hybrid heat pump model but I mentioned a cheap electric resistive one as a preheater because it’s easy to use as a dump load

I just got my two 314 AH batteries and 10KW inverter yesterday, so I’m not at the “spare solar power” point yet, but a lot of people will have a second electric water heater (in “front” of the main one) that acts as a dump load and pre-heats the water before it gets to the main tank.

I’m looking at getting a Slate EV truck hopefully next year, so that will also charge from my installation.

Grid-tie and exporting surplus PV generation isn’t an option for me due to electric company shenanigans.

I suppose when I do get to the excess PV point, I might just buy additional batteries

That’s suspiciously what Dave Grohl would wear if he just wanted some “me” time.

Lol, thanks, that’s what I was going for. Not whatever (gestures to the other thread) that is.

Let me worry about my own dogs, yeah? We do walk with a harness, putting on shoes (me) and collars (dogs) before we go out has been a literal routine for years, and they do always wear their collars when they’re new and in training for exactly the reasons you all are harping about. We even do emergency drills for things like tornado warnings where I say “danger, danger” and they know to head to the basement (where I keep backup collars + ID tags and vet records).

For fuck’s sake, it’s a cute dog meme and y’all are pouncing on one trivial line in the caption like I’m the worst animal abuser in the world for wanting my dogs to be comfortable around the house. There are too many miniscule-chance-of-that-ever-happening "what if"s to worry about that I’m not going to live my life in a safety bubble. The yard is fenced, we’re in suburbia, they’re both chipped, they’re both trained, they’re both socialized, the neighbors all know them, and we’re doing just fine thank you very much.

Geesh, the number of people around here who always have to be right is staggering and extremely off-putting.

Lots of people. We’re a “no shoes, no collar” house.

Both dogs are trained to not bolt out the door when it opens, and I’ve got a fenced yard.

Not sure of the actual name, but they’re like wire nuts but crimped instead of twist. I don’t think there’s a non-destructive way to undo them but you may be able to rip the wires out and use a regular wire nut to splice them back. If not, try cutting them as far inside as you can and replacing with another crimp connector or use a screw type wire nut.

I never really got the humor there, lol, but I’m lamenting the loss of 80s TV because I had a lot of good Golden Girls posts since I’m finally watching it for the first time.

My (limited) understanding is that there’s no straightforward way to do that at least in Lemmy.

You mean the images going down fairly regularly?

These are all 90s cartoons, so if you can find them:

• Batman: The Animated Series (the one with Mark Hamill as the Joker)
• Animaniacs
• Tiny Toon Adventures
• Chip n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers
• Pinky and the Brain Saw you have that one already

“How to Adult 101” and 102. I’m not qualified to teach 103+ though.

Tact

Ah. Okay. I use a client that handles YT embeds so that’s why then. However, when I’m on a VPN, sometimes it puts me through an endless captcha loop.

I’m assuming that’s a VPN problem? They always work fine as embeds for me.

Looks promising, thanks. Gonna download and play around with it now.

You’d think the standard PDF viewers in Linux (Okular, etc) would at least show you alt text but nope. Seems like a huge omission.

Unfortunately, that seems to only work when exporting from a LibreOffice doc. What I’m having to deal with are PDFs generated by various staff already in PDF format.

Cool. TIL about the LilyGo pager. I’d always liked the T-Deck but the pager may be my next toy.
