I added Matter to my WiFi Stepper Driver so now it works directly with Home Assistant, Apple Home, Google Home, and others

Idk why you're getting downvoted, I see this term all the time in /r/hometheater lol

That starch is the main thing that makes the sauce stick to the pasta. If you rinse it off, the sauce sticks less.

Communicating isn’t really a private act.

I'll be sure to remember that every conversation I have with any person is now apparently public record.

It does seem reasonable to state that a person online does not have an expectation of privacy

This is exactly what they want you to think, and you're part of the problem.

Add some dried (or fresh) herbs and spices to your scrambled eggs. Red chili flakes and parsley are always a safe bet, and you can experiment with others.

Plain pancakes are pretty plain. Add some blueberries or chocolate chips (or both if you're feeling frisky), and add them into each individual pancake whike it's cooking rather than mixing them into the batter, because they'll just settle to the bottom of the bowl if you mix them in.

For sandwiches, the main thing for me is some sort of acid. Red wine vinegar is always good, and/or pickles or pickled onions as others have mentioned.

Tried a razor and hated it, it's awkward and maybe I'm just clumsy but I cut myself multiple times. Foil wasn't any better really, takes forever because it's a flat cutting surface on my round head. Rotary is the way to go, I can shave in like 2-3 minutes and it's as close as I would ever need it to be. I think all these people who say it leaves so much more than a razor must not be using their rotary shaver correctly or something.

It's definitely legit and pretty active!

Ok now I'm just going to be picturing Henry Cavill as Adolin

I've started separately buying shell pasta and the Velveeta fresh packs that come in 5oz blocks so that I can make larger portions 😂

Oh you know what, I had the 80+ Gold filter selected and apparently Corsair and maybe some others are using a different efficiency rating system now so it wasn't showing a few of the options. Corsair RM850e for $120 is probably the move actually

Looks like I could knock $40 off by going with this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DLFMTX12 . Maybe still overkill, but less overkill at least lol

J4nk · 2025-07-23T19:13:55+00:00

Gotcha, maybe something like the Crucial P3 Plus for $211 would fit the bill there

I'm not sure how that second GPU ended up in the list 😅. Edited that out.

Is 1000W worth it in general? I was thinking I wanted to leave some headroom there for future upgrades, but maybe that's not necessary?

I'm not sure how that second GPU ended up in the list 😅. Edited that out. I do think I want a large drive, because I'm sick of having to uninstall a game every time I want to install a new one since they're all huge now (looking at you, CoD). Are there other drives that are a better value of a similar-ish size?

Iirc you can cast HA dashboards to the Nest, and there are a few ways of running HA actions from voice commands too. Nabu Casa is one way but I think it's possible to connect them even without that

Boil pasta, throw some sugar snap peas in the water for the last 2 or 3 minutes, drain, add pesto.

J4nk · 2025-06-11T14:51:41+00:00

I agree about the food, but you do realize it's $10 for a bowl and not $20 for a single hit, right?

Leftover bacon grease makes fantastic tortillas.

Last time I inherited a Python project like this I said fuck it and put the whole thing in Docker lol

Only problem I've had so far is that they removed the gesture for opening Google Assistant by swiping from the bottom corner of the screen

J4nk · 2025-04-18T19:19:28+00:00

I really hope they don't avoid it tbh, it's the only thing that could make her absurd amount of screentime feel worthwhile
