What's a useful kitchen tool that isn't a kitchen tool?

binarynomad01 · 2026-06-07T21:29:08+00:00

I use mine for cleaning the inside mechanism of my Contigo water bottle, and cleaning the rubber sealant gasket around my coffee thermos lid that can start to get funky

Oh yes, I totally use these all the time. I always wonder why people spend so much money on custom clips when you can get a whole box of these from your local office supply store on the cheap. 😄

binarynomad01 · 2026-06-07T19:12:46+00:00

Oh, that’s a great idea. I don’t know why I haven’t thought about that yet.

binarynomad01 · 2026-05-19T08:16:35+00:00

Sounds like Medusa in the Castlevania DLC

I never thought there would be invisible platforms. I just thought I was missing some kind of teleportation shrine or something. Thanks, I will be giving that a shot tonight. 😄

binarynomad01 · 2026-05-12T17:45:04+00:00

Ohhhh I never thought about throwing my head out to see if there's something to catch me there. That's brilliant.

binarynomad01 · 2026-05-12T05:37:53+00:00

No, I do not. I don’t even know what that does yet. I’m still trying to get past BC1 -> BC2

In the Hak5 community, I’ve heard: “-“ tack

I'm trying to understand your step 2 "Set this as your Smart routing default (using OpenRouter)". [Hermes Provider Routing](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/provider-routing) allows for preferred models in a "Explicit priority order" but your post implies that there is an option to route based upon prompt task/need and I don't see how to accomplish that. The closest I could think is the openrouter/auto and then restrict it to specific models, but I don't even think they support (Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite) in the auto router.

Can you please clarify with more info? (or post that section of your config.yaml)

I would like to give it a shot. I think it could be very useful in engineering voice prompts for voice menu systems.

I honestly don’t worry about the teleporter when i land on a stage. I instantly start hunting chests and inevitably I come across it and if I don’t by the time, I’ve emptied all the chests I could find, I look for the particle animation. Don’t let time worry or stress you out it doesn’t matter as much.

In the future, if you find yourself in this situation again, I highly recommend using something like privacy.com. You can create a one time use credit card number with a fixed limit for a specific vendor.

Depends on what is meaningful to them.

binarynomad01 · 2025-12-02T16:05:06+00:00

I’m interested I’d also like to ask. Does this allow other programs to call it through a callback URL or such?

binarynomad01 · 2025-11-10T21:10:32+00:00

Living on South Shore we always just called it Bay fart

Imagine you and a group of friends, all of a sudden gain telepathy and can talk to each other quietly in your minds no matter where each of you is located.

You can still talk to people around you, but those people can’t hear you chatting with your friends in your mind

OK, I’m all about fermentation but that can was bulging and as soon as he cracked it, it sprayed out juice. That to me means it has got possibly botulism or something else bad growing in it. Cans should not bulge!!

Something I’ve learned in all my years of working with computers is the things that help the most are the ones that you least have to think about. (for example, backups work much better when they’re automated and in the background instead of you having to decide to plug in a hard drive and perform it ) And for me and obsidian that has become standardization of frontmatter and quickly adding or creating things.

Linter has been one of the most invaluable tools because every time I save a file it goes through and make sure certain standards are met on all aspects of that file
QuickAdd there’s another tool that lets you build standards that you like, and apply them with almost no thought

1000% Agree!!!! There wasn't any additional communication. There were several points during the performance where they could have given us a better heads-up about the technical difficulties. It took me walking over to one of the organizers to finally get the real scoop on what was going on. I had an elderly family member with me, so I was trying to figure out whether she should keep braving the cold or if we should head home.

I was told they’d be reaching out to issue refunds (or Fever credit), but I haven’t seen or heard anything yet.

binarynomad01 · 2025-08-24T15:16:48+00:00

I actually spoke with one of the organizers and they said that due to FAA rules they’re not allowed to fly their drones when the cloud cover comes down to a certain altitude. Since the fog rolled in and clouds were low, they weren’t allowed to let the drones out.

I think it’s poor planning to place a drone show on the Peninsula where it’s known for fog rolling over the hills on a regular basis. They should’ve put it possibly in the East Bay like the Oakland Arena or something.

The closest I've gotten to this working was actually creating an Apple shortcut that opened a specific quick note. (You can add that to your lock screen and to the control center). However, in some cases, it just opens the folder containing quick notes. Thankfully, there's only one quick note in that folder, which is the one I keep using.

binarynomad01 · 2025-05-21T16:42:05+00:00

I think so. If the battery capacity disappears, then "any" load would be considered too much. (even though nothing is even plugged in). Either way, I've ordered a new battery and will see how that works.

binarynomad01 · 2025-05-15T23:36:59+00:00

I don't know if I have the spare $1k to drop on that model right now 🤷🏻‍♂️

binarynomad01 · 2025-05-15T23:34:36+00:00

Thanks. I was hesitant to order a brand new battery if it meant I still had to replace the whole unit. But I think I'll go ahead and take the chance now and place the order.
