    Verizon no longer owns either company listed under it. Sold huffpo in 2020 and yahoo in 2021. Idk about the rest of the list but it's a little out of date.

    Yes, that's right. Most men's shoes have a 1-2 cm lift in the heel but having no lift (flat front to back) is much easier on your back.

    As the title says. Looking for something zero drop with a wide-ish toe box that can be worn to semi-formal / dress type events. Would love any community input!

    Injinji typically when I wear socks. I don't wear socks with my vff - I just wash them super regularly. I only wash them cold so they don't warp but I soak them in a laundry sanitizer first to kill any odor-causing bacteria.

    The unseen nature of the sweet potatoes is rather suspicious, but I'm choosing to believe because you gotta believe in something.

    Not what you're asking but since it's been covered well:

    Buy your own cable modem and put your own firewall behind it. Not only will this save you money in the long run, you'll also have no issues with things like port forwarding. I use Comcast/Xfinity with a docsis3.1 cable modem + a decent firewall and it's a good way to go.

    Heating my office with xmrig

    Figured you guys might enjoy my little winter project. I have an always-on server + my gaming PC in my office set up with xmrig. I have electric baseboard heaters in my apartment (PNW, USA) so as long as I'm not heating my office past my normal setpoint the electricity is essentially free. How I set this up: - ESP32 flashed with ESPHome + MCP9808 temperature sensor takes a reading of the ambient temperature every minute and sends it to homeassistant - Homeassistant feeds that temperature (as well as a controllable setpoint) to a python script - Python runs a PID controller based on the room temp and setpoint - I use the XMRIG http API to pause/resume and dynamically control the number of threads used for mining Here's the result: ![image](https://files.catbox.moe/0bhlgj.png) Keeping my room +/- 0.5 degrees from the setpoint while mining If you guys are interested I can post more details. I've had my baseboards off for over a month now with outside temps below freezing.

    I love the listicles feature. Not because I want to actually look at those results but because they're all stripped out of the main search. Doing product research is so much better without all those low-quality "top whatever 2023" lists that take up the first 3 pages of google lol

    I don't volunteer either piece of information, but sooner or later someone is going to overhear me ordering vegan food or see me opening my lunch and the dreaded conversation will have to happen. I wish people would just let me make my own food choices in private without making a big thing about it.

    The prevalence of touchscreens has probably resulted in a decrease in average fingernail length

    I feel like I used to see a lot of women with super long nails struggling to use their touchscreen phones. I'm sure at least some of them have chosen slightly shorter nails to make it easier.

    Dedicated NAS or Nextcloud server for home lab?

    I'm looking for suggestions. I have a rack in my office with up to 4U space available. I'm looking to set up a backup and storage solution to try and break free from services such as dropbox & google drive. I'd also love to run a few other things like homeassistant and potentially even Klipper for my 3d printer. I'd also like it to be reasonably quiet if possible. So what would you recommend? I could get something like a dell poweredge and add HDDs + replace the fans with noctua to keep the noise down or go with a dedicated NAS like synology. Any other recommendations?

    YSK: name-based jokes are the lowest form of comedy

    Why YSK: it doesn't matter how original you might think you are, they **have** heard them before. Numerous times in fact. If you're in the habit of making name-based jokes as soon as you meet someone you should stop. At best you're mildly annoying the person, at worst you're preventing what could have been a great friendship before it even begins. Sincerely: someone named Jesse.

    psa: check your bed probe mounting occasionally

    I've been having weird first layer issues for months. My z offset seemed all over the place and I found myself manually adjusting each print. Had no clue what the issue was until I noticed my bltouch wasn't perfectly straight. Turns out the mounting screws had loosened slightly leaving ~1/2mm play in its location compared to the nozzle. Tightened then up and printed my first absolutely perfect first layer in months.

    Designed & printed a working gear pump (edit: added video & more info)

    Just a quick hobby + learning project. If people are interested I am happy to post more pics. PLA exterior + TPU seals + Nylon (COPA) bushings. Everything is 3d printed except the hardware & motor. The hose adapters have 1/4 NPT ends on them. NPT has a tapered thread so I found that I could screw them in partway by hand then heat them up slightly with a soldering iron to soften the PLA then screw them in the rest of the way. Makes a nice watertight seal despite the roughness of the 3d printed threads. If they start leaking I can unscrew them (leaving behind threads perfectly molded to the fittings) then add some pip seal tape and put them back in. What do you guys think? EDIT: here's a photo of the parts separate ![exploded_view](https://i.postimg.cc/g23ctz9k/PXL-20230618-183429348.jpg) and a video: https://imgur.com/a/cd8co68
