You don’t pour water on a grease fire because grease floats and it will spill out of your pot and catch the rest of your kitchen on fire

I expect you know as you were mainly talking about batteries (on this post about batteries) - but grease fires are not quite dangerous just because grease floats and adding water causes it to spill fire - when you introduce the water it does sink, but then it superheats to vapour, rapidly expanding and almost erupts the oil, chucking a poor man’s napalm round everything in the vicinity

It doesn’t have to even be on fire, if the oil is >100 degrees and there’s enough of it to superheat adding water will do the same thing (minus the flames) - a melted face is better than a melted face and a house fire, but neither are recommended

I’d recommend anova brand

I believe that’s called a “nightmare”

In this case, I look forward to our bicycle powered future

etoro is a broker that allows you to “copy trade” popular investors and portfolios, which mimc trades according to how much capital you have invested, though Nancy ain’t gonna be on there

There’s also ETFs such as ARK which are easy to get into, are managed by the likes of Cathie Wood and if they’re doing a good job, only go up

Biggest regret in the last 15 years is not getting into it earlier tbh, if you have even a passing interest in trading, open a mock account (or a real one with some money you don’t mind “losing”) and just have a go - it’s very simple nowadays. Gone are the days where you need to pay $10 to a broker to even make a trade

Sorry, that bogie came out of nowhere

I found this out the hard way with my coworker

Come on bro you’ve heard of 420. Just Google it bro it’s a big day for those who know

Dunno what to tell ya, the xweets are real but yeah no real evidence either way

Im sure time will tell, if there’s a case to be made we know Nintendo won’t shirk at taking it forward

The guy admitted to scaling the models to fit, because had a bee in his bonnet about how palworld “glorifies animal abuse”

There’s an interesting conversation to have about where exactly the line between plagarisim and inspiration is, but it’s unlikely palworld devs used stolen assets

Thunder breathing, first form

I’d have lost 90% of my hype if it wasn’t announced

Wow thanks had no idea this was an option on my Samsung. . it was just hiding disabled in my settings as “lockdown mode”

I pay for 5g in London with EE with an LTE phone

I’ve turned it off - it’s too unreliable even 3 years later… Feels like 1 bar of 5g spends an age trying to get a connection, then slowly reverts to 3 bars of 4g, which is ultimately just worse than just using 4g

Could just be my oldish phone, or the concrete jungle, but feels like shite to me

jumping off point

Woah there, corporate informs me this is insensitive to Lemmings

Lemmy HR will be in touch

Futurama taught me this

Punk goes pop - was the soundtrack of my teens

Offer accepted on a listed c16 farmhouse in q4 2021, after thinking about the original 3y fix mortgage we lined up, I convinced the wife to put up all the profit from the last house, the entire renovation budget (as well as a bunch of profit from a potentially foolish foray into $GME) to get to 75% LTV and a 10y fix on just over £500k @ 1.7%

It took until July 2022 to complete, managed a big discount on offer price due to some confusing wording on the estate agents listing (and the vendors being a bit silly and telling us they needed to sell ASAP cause they were getting a divorce) but managed it before the mortgage offer expired

I’ll be almost 40 by the time i need to worry about payments going up, and we’ll have way more equity by then - safe to say I’m pretty chuffed

An Endymion trilogy with bits of Hyperion sprinkled in for flavour would be perfect
