RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many mL of sparkling mineral water should I add to wine to make it adequately sparkling like champagne/bubbly?5·6 days agoMy understanding is many of the ones that are only rated for water have additional nooks and crannies where the liquid you are carbonating can get trapped, yielding nastiness over time.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humansEnglish28·6 days agoI think there’s a lot more to it than cost. Men, even with considerable health care resources, are often very averse to mental health care.
Thinking of my father in law, for example, I don’t know how much you would have to pay him to get him into a therapist’s office, but I’m certain he wouldn’t go for free.

RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is NotEnglish47·11 days ago“Recite the complete works of Shakespeare but replace every thirteenth thou with this”
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is NotEnglish57·11 days agoBut if one person buys a book, trains an “AI model” to recite it, then distributes that model we good?
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Are leechers more likely to connect to seeders w/ faster uploads or is it equal opportunity?English9·12 days agoYes and no. Depending on your client I believe you can tweak the settings to avoid slow seeders if others are available (especially if you have a set max connections per torrent)
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Do you think sometimes privacy practices of people at c/privacy or r/privacy communities are overparanoid or take things too far?8·13 days agoOf course some people go too far. I think a lot of folks on here grossly overestimate / overstate their threat model, but I think the discussions are good for the limited few who really do need to cover their asses.
Me personally, I hate the idea of companies bidding for my attention without my consent, so I try and make it as hard as possible for them to get it. This just so happens to overlap nicely with the goals of the privacy community much of the time.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•getoffpocket.com, my guide to Pocket alternatives, just got a redesignEnglish122·19 days agoGreat, you stole my domain. Now I have to come up with a whole new brand for my new line of travel sized fleshlights.

RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Your household smart products must respect your privacy – including your air fryerEnglish2·20 days agoCertainly sounds familiar, my tip to him is to try and write recipes down and get in the habit of mise en place-ing (prep chopping / pre-measuring) when you know what you’re gonna cook. Once the food hits the hot pan, any semblance of a plan goes out the window
(but also know “sticking to habits” is hard for us with ADHD, as it frequently goes against our nature, so don’t be shocked if he struggles there)
I tend to be the one to cook the “whatever’s leftover in the fridge” dish, which is a guaranteed source of a little chaos. In those instances it’s always helpful to have my wife around to pass ingredients or do some prep tasks on the side so I don’t lose focus and burn the onions.
Also, if you don’t already have recipes written down, having someone help build out a recipe book as you go can help smooth out future cooks.
Shout out to Recipe Keeper - after a first cook, usually from a website or book, we put everything we like in there for future reference.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Your household smart products must respect your privacy – including your air fryerEnglish6·20 days agoAs someone with ADHD, the implemented order of operations is never logically optimal.
The more steps I have to do to course correct the more likely I fuck up the next thing.
Home automation is a godsend for me.
I don’t have an air fryer but if I did, the biggest help for me would be some sort of obnoxiously obvious reminder the nuggs are done so I don’t A) burn the house down, or B) have cold nuggs when I wake up from my hyperfocus an hour later.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me?2·20 days agoAll about acid and volume. Too much of anything and there’s no where else to go.
Spicy is just for the taste buds, and reallllllly spicy comes with a bonus reminder the next day.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phoneEnglish7·20 days agoIdk the exact number but the camera in my phone probably weighs like a gram or so, so Einstein tells me I’m carrying about 25,000,000 kWh in the camera alone, which if served at 5V would be ~
5,000,000,0005,000,000,000,000 mAh.Guess I’m winning.
Edit: mafs.

RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it weird I sleep with an old blanket I've had since I was a young girl?48·20 days agoNah, totally normal, my dog came with one too when he was a puppy. Was supposed to smell like his Mom to help him settle in a new home.
If it helps you not pee in your crate I say you keep it.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Android@lemdro.id•6 Android apps that are so slick, I thought Google made themEnglish1·21 days agoNot really. Theoretically you can use Google Maps as a compass, but otherwise no. Per the article:
Shockingly, Google is yet to build its own native compass or level tool app for Android. Most third-party phone makers have taken matters into their own hands, but modern Pixel phones still don’t provide a user-facing app for accessing coordinates, altitude, magnetism, and other useful metrics. Thankfully, Compass has you covered.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Looking for a good e-mail provider that's not Tuta/Proton5·22 days agoThe way Tuta and Proton have set up E2EE is not compatible with Thunderbird.
Proton offers a “bridge” service that does local decryption for email clients like TB but it’s an extra step and has to be running 24/7.
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.worksto Android@lemdro.id•6 Android apps that are so slick, I thought Google made themEnglish7·22 days ago$0.99 for a clean & ad-free app? Sounds like the kind of thing I’d be happy to pay for if I used a compass like ever.
Did you try getting rid of the old one and putting the new one in its former place?
