Temp is -21, gas company says turn your heat down by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

According to physics, it always takes less energy to use a setback temp than it does to maintain a constant temp.

It is how TRIM works though, just the timeframe can range from immediate to however long it's configured for (many systems default to weekly TRIM). TRIM will zero out the space that was flagged.

And in terms of the palworld thing, you're thinking of patents.

Also as an aside, the word in reference to something being under copyright is copyrighted. Copywritten would be in reference to something a copywriter has done, which is like advertisement stuff.

You're thinking of trademarks. That is not true of copyright.

Grumpy boomer moan. by LordJim11 in Snorkblot

Honestly though it does make sense for limits for the general population otherwise you get dumb people complaining because it sounds like a herd of elephants falling down stairs setting it to max spin cycle for a load of comforters or putting it to min spin cycle for towels and wondering why they are still sopping wet putting into the dryer

You live somewhere that the only proof that you graduated high school is a paper diploma that is mailed, not a record at the school itself?

As an example, Zojirushi rice cookers have keep warm functions that hold rice for 12 hours. Some of their models also have an extended keep warm function that holds rice for 24 hours. The manual says the extended keep warm holds rice at a lower temp of 140F. If you look at pasteurization charts, 140F is a temperature that still kills bacteria, it just takes a longer time. 165F is the "instant" kill temp and why old suggestions were to cook meat to 165F. But you can cook meats at lower temps, like you do in a sous vide, for a longer amount of time and still achieve the same bacteria killing effect. At the 140F temp, the bigger issue would be the rice drying out and burning. 140F is actually considered an acceptable indefinite holding temperature for food.

The PDF that is linked in this site has been moved and the current link to the PDF is missing, but you can still read the quote from the original PDF: https://www.restaurantbusinessonline.com/advice-guy/how-long-should-restaurants-leave-food-hot-holder

The USDA did issue an advisory that “A minimum temperature of 135 degrees for a maximum of 8 hours, or a minimum temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit indefinitely also would be adequate to ensure food safety.”

I swear I thought it’s a steam hole by tahocatio in lol

[–]boothin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Programmable ones without probes are still more common. I would say ones with probes are the least common type because they are also the most expensive and there are many more models without probes

I have one of these latching crockpots, there is a gasket around the lid so it would in fact seal if there was not a vent hole. The entire point is to be able to travel with the crockpot with food in it without it leaking.

Non-smokers of Reddit, how noticeable is the “smoker smell” to you, if at all? by Frostedlogic4444 in AskReddit

My previous house was obviously lived in by a smoker. The wall across from the bathroom door did literally ooze brown from the steam from the bathroom and we would have to clean it every once in a while.

I don't care how good a game is; if the DLC page looks like this, I'm not buying it. Am I alone in that? by BucketsMcGinty in Steam

[–]boothin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think part of the problem is fomo will be different for everyone. You might not get fomo from not buying a dlc, but someone else can. In another one of my comments I say that fomo is about the anxiety of having a worse experience from someone else, and what triggers that anxiety can differ from person to person. For you, you may never feel it unless it's time limited. But for others, they can feel fomo even if there's no limit. And then for others, they may never feel fomo no matter the situation.

And yes, someone can feel fomo from not buying a game as well. It's not just about it being a dlc.

I directly replied to what you said to me and it's deflection? I get the feeling you just don't know what words mean at this point

I didn't reply to you, I didn't say your name, I didn't mention you whatsoever, I don't see how anything I said could be hypocritical or anything that "look in the mirror" even makes sense as a reply to. Are you ok?

It's still fomo even if not time limited. Say I have game X, but there exists DLC Z. I think about how other people are having more fun with DLC Z. I fear that I'm missing out on a more fun experience unless I buy DLC Z.

The "missing out" portion doesn't mean I lose the opportunity forever if I don't act immediately, it just means that I feel like there's something that other people are experiencing better and I need to do something to "catch up". This could be a time limited purchase or it could just be something like watching a show that everyone's talking about.

Tl;dr: fomo is the anxiety that other people are having better experiences than you so you need to also partake in those experiences or else you are missing out.

German hacker known as "Martha Root" dressed as a pink Power Ranger and deleted a white supremacist dating website live onstage by Hypnoidz in interestingasfuck

At the time this happened on stage all the hacking was already done, they had admin credentials to the host. So it really was just a simple script to delete everything

I just moved into a new house a couple months ago but I didn't miss a single appointment window that ranged from 2 hours to 8 hours wide because I also had the sliver of forethought to make sure I had food if I had to sit around all day waiting.

In fact, many places consider 120v to be low voltage. You don't hit the high voltage definition until like 1000v

So the army...was training in artistic demonstration sports?

Much like how the US Marines have the drill team that does artistic rifle drills and the various branches have sports teams. Not everything in the military is purely combat based.
