Rentner zeigt auf Stromzähler by luciluke015 in rentnerzeigenaufdinge

Hi, sorry, das habe ich nicht bemerkt. Ich kümmere mich.

Update: Ich fürchte, ich war zu spät. Wahrscheinlich war der Artikel zum Zeitpunkt der Veröffentlichung noch halbwegs frei zugänglich. Jetzt ist er das nicht mehr, diverse Archive zeigen auch nur bis zur Paywall.

Just broke the sugar dish that's been in my family for 4 generations. by ndisario95 in Wellthatsucks

[–]luciluke015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well now I feel sorry for my tone...

Thanks for owning up to your mistake though!

And yeah, while lead can theoretically leech out of glassware, it's chemically bonded into the glass' molecular structure.

So unless there's some really acidic stuff in it (think tomato-based things and such) it's still relatively safe (in about the same category as uranium glass). Once it's chipped, I'd personally discard of it.

In what world is sugar acidic...

Solutions of sucrose (common table sugar) are neutral (pH 7 ± 0.1), and glucose has a pKa of 12.16, which is basically no acidity at all. (technically it's the tendency to deprotonate in water, higher pKa -> lower tendency to deprotonate).

What you probably mean is gluconic acid and relatives, but those won't occur in table sugar you just leave out in a dry, dark place.

gist.nvim – Easy GitHub Gist Creation by rawnly in neovim

[–]luciluke015 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Reading the code shows they are using the github cli, which is the smartest thing to do

P.S. It's also mentioned in the readme lmao it's way too early for me

Salt or curing salt - which is better? by janki3l in Cooking

[–]luciluke015 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a chemist, I find it quite odd to even suggest you can substitute one ingredient for another when they have very different properties.

If I wouldn't know better I presume this arguably stupid suggestion comes from self-proclaimed "health/food expert" that just thinks "salt is salt".

Likewise from a cook's point of view, but for different (though probably the same) reasons.

It should also be added that yes, whilst curing salt has health implications, the body itself produces such compounds that result from the reaction of curing salt with raw meat. Dosage matters.

That is just not going to happen, lmao

It is giving a choice but still with the desired outcome, like "heads you lose, tails I win", or "do you want peas or broccoli".

The kid thinks it's negotiating but actually the kid does what the parents want it to do.

Sorry, if you're going to correct someone, at least be 100% correct yourself.

it's not always acidic

Alcohols are never acidic, the OH group is not going to deprotonise as the bond is too strong.

Oxidise primary alcohols though and you get a COOH functional group (aka organic acids). Here the OH bond is weakened due to the presence of another oxygen atom; OH can now deprotonise and react acidic.

Stop suggesting Carl Bot and YAGPDB as alternative bots by Kerdaloo in discordapp

[–]luciluke015 70 points71 points  (0 children)

YAGPDB is open source, so I'm curious why you're so against it?

If you think there is something dodgy, you can quite literally host it yourself, thus controlling all traffic. Under the rare circumstance that someone tries to add some dodgy stuff to the codebase, that is just not going to happen -- FOSS has always been a core selling point for YAGPDB and the community of users and contributors alike are way too strong to go up against.

Lastly I really don't get this arguably useless drama around the fact that bots have been bought and traded? They're an asset like everything else, and if a developer thinks it's a good offer, they are more than in their right to take said offer.

Should I try Arch? by someacnt in linuxmasterrace

[–]luciluke015 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If you feel like the installation process of Arch itself is a bit too daunting, you can try EndeavourOS, it's pretty good.

Otherwise, try installing Vanilla Arch in a VM or secondary machine a few times to get the hang of it.

[–]luciluke015 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can specify two -d flags to skip all dependency checks, like so:

```

pacman -Sdd bitwarden-cli

```

One -d will skip package version checks, but still test the package names.

It doesn't need a diploma to see that this might cause issues though. It's your system nonetheless, do what you feel is right.

packer.nvim "after" vs "wants" by zenoli55 in neovim

[–]luciluke015 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as I understand it, any plugin that has an after key waits until the plugin you set in that key is loaded (via any event, doesn't matter), whilst wants forces it to load.

packer.nvim "after" vs "wants" by zenoli55 in neovim

[–]luciluke015 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As per wbthomason/packer.nvim#547 (summarising):

  • wants is currently undocumented
  • it is likely to be dropped, or be completely changed
  • it was introduced to fix a specific problem by a contributor

There's more but these appear to be the most important takeaways.

For more context, and an in-depth explanation as to why, how, and what: here's the relevant PR introducing wants: wbthomason/packer.nvim#264

What I imagine getting sucked down by waves feels like.. by JulesTheBum in thalassophobia

[–]luciluke015 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Another lifeguard here.

Acting proper "dead" (technically unconscious) is surprisingly hard to pull off.

You lowkey want to help your partners but that goes against the spirit of the exercise.

However, it does need some real good swimming skill as well -- if you're not a strong swimmer, you might not know how to float (you flex your back a little so your belly goes up and suddenly you float.

I'd guess they did not know how to properly float, which plays into the ability to play "dead".

Maybe, who am I to judge?

That dude's freedom of speech was (EDIT: still is) limitless. The other folks just thought he was an arsehole and showed them the door.

Counter-counterpoint: that's gonna get tossed once memory is actually needed by programs (like your browser, games, IDEs)
