artifex@lemmy.zipOPto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the first use of the term "brain rot" was in Henry David Thoreau's WaldenEnglish2·6 days agoYes, but you can medicate ADHD. There’s no entry in the DSM for brain rot (yet).
artifex@lemmy.zipOPto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the first use of the term "brain rot" was in Henry David Thoreau's WaldenEnglish8·6 days agoAgreed. I think I’m fairly well read and I’ve worked through a decent number of philosophical texts, but I’ve never finished Walden.
artifex@lemmy.zipto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Question about harware Raid vs Truenas poolsEnglish12·6 days agoThe safest and most flexible option would be to configure the BIOS to not use the RAID controller and just “see” the drives as a regular JBOD, and then setup a ZFS RAID-Z1 array and configure your zvols, etc. in that instead. RAID-Z1 is functionally very similar to old-school RAID-5. There’s virtually no performance penalty with software RAID these days, and you’re eliminating the proprietary RAID controller as a single point of failure.

artifex@lemmy.zipto Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit in talks to embrace Sam Altman’s iris-scanning Orb to verify usersEnglish199·6 days agoOn the one hand, I understand the inherent limitations of pseudonymous social media and why a corporation and even end users might benefit from authoritative user identification.
On the other hand, oh hell no.
artifex@lemmy.zipto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineeringEnglish2351·10 days agoHe probably would have figured it out had he had time to evolve into Megahertz.
artifex@lemmy.zipto Data is Beautiful@mander.xyz•Deficit Between a $35/hr Federal Minimum Wage and Cost of Living of US StatesEnglish6·13 days agoYeah it can’t be. Even an expensive car like a Corvette was only around $6k and most of the examples on this list are in the $2-3k range.

artifex@lemmy.zipto Coffee@lemmy.world•Delonghi Dedica: any tips for making good coffee?61·18 days agoI have a dedica and find it can be a little underpowered with an unpressurized basket (though the coffee looks so pretty). First thing I’d try is - without adjusting your grind - to back off to 8g to reduce the extraction time and see how it is.
If you’ve also had it for a while and have never descaled you should do that as well, even if the machine hasn’t bugged you about it yet.
artifex@lemmy.zipto Technology@lemmy.world•The world could experience a year above 2°C of warming by 2029English446·18 days agoAs stupid as this sounds I think we (and really the media, but we know which side they’re on) should be doing this in F for US audiences. Saying “hey, it’s now 5°F hotter than it was in the 1970s” is more immediately meaningful — and the bigger number looks scarier too.
artifex@lemmy.ziptoData is Beautiful@lemmy.world•Percent of pixels, across all photos.English8·20 days agoWow I didn’t know there was color photography in 1800
Not OP but most corn tortillas are GF.
I mean, not to me, no, but in certain circles (especially anywhere outside of the midwest US) some people have very strong feelings about whether they should be “allowed”. It’s another one of those pineapple-on-pizza situations.
Uhoh, olives. Someone’s looking to start a fight…
Ah the old “owe $100 and the bank owns you; owe $100,000,000 and you own the bank” defense.
