Flour is flammable and light. If the fan makes a bunch of it fly around in your oven the heating element could ignite it. Search YouTube for “flour fire”.

Probably not super dangerous at if you’re just baking a sheet pan of flour, but good to be safe.

If you bake dry flour , remember to NOT use convection.

You can make safe edible cookie dough pretty easily . The eggs aren’t the only issue, it’s the flour itself. If you bake it at like 275F for 30 mins in a sheet pan it’ll sterilize it. For edible cookie dough that won’t be baked you don’t even need eggs.

Having said that, I too have eaten my share of regular cookie dough.

The wise thing is to not offer perpetual licenses in the first place. You can’t predict the state of your business in 10 years let alone beyond that. Why make commitments that? Marketing of course. So if they’re going to raise capital that way (by one-time revenue from sales of perpetual licenses) then they can’t just decide that perpetual doesn’t mean perpetual anymore. All in all this will come down to a legal duel between expensive legal teams.

The fact that this tweet caused their stock price to dive really shows what a joke the stock market is .

It’s highly likely that you had one or more bad-but-not-dead cables (like a weak termination) that was limiting your speed. By swapping everything out you fixed the problem. Cat 5e to 8 definitely shouldn’t have caused that much if a jump (if any).

BL2 is one of my fav games ever.

The power argument is true, but secondary. The primary reasons for this are ultimately financial. The problem was that Windows 7 was too good. Too stable. It did everything most people wanted, without issues. What has been added to windows after windows 7 that was actually beneficial to the user? The answer is nothing, within a small margin of error. That’s why upgrades to W10 and now 11 are as forced as possible. It’s not like those uogrades have anything that people actually need or want. Since they can’t produce anything more for windows that people would actually want to pay for, all that is left is adding in telemetry/spyware and selling your data, likely along side a long term vision to turn Windows into a monthly subscription.

When innovation ends but demand for increasing profits doesn’t, enshittification is all that is left.

The distinction between that and a malicious hack consists entirely of intent .

It’s an argument for decentralization. An argument that won’t be heeded.

Ticketmaster is worse than scalpers.

I just looked it up and…

SF6 has 23,500 times greater global warming potential (GWP) than CO2 as a greenhouse gas (over a 100-year time-frame) but exists in relatively minor concentrations in the atmosphere. Its concentration in Earth’s troposphere reached 11.50 parts per trillion (ppt) in October 2023, rising at 0.37 ppt/year.[8] The increase since 1980 is driven in large part by the expanding electric power sector, including fugitive emissions from banks of SF6 gas contained in its medium- and high-voltage switchgear. Uses in magnesium, aluminium, and electronics manufacturing also hastened atmospheric growth.[9] The 1997 Kyoto Protocol, which came into force in 2005, is supposed to limit emissions of this gas. In a somewhat nebulous way it has been included as part of the carbon emission trading scheme. In some countries this has led to the defunction of entire industries.[10]

Umm wtf? Why are we selling this stuff in compressed air cans ? Even methane is “only” 30x more potent than CO2 .

Because that’s the cooling system required to run the thing. It requires more toxic coolant, that will eventually end up in the ocean, than several hundred supercomputer megaclusters and sucks more power than a thousand suburbs.

Congrats on getting upvotes for this utter bullshit, none of which is substantiated in the article you linked.

Edit- this was at +15 when I first saw it.

This shit belongs in your diary dude.

Western countries employing Indian coders are generally looking for the cheapest coders they can find who speak passable English. All of that sounds like you got what you paid for.

Kids, this is what you become if you sniff glue.

It could be argued that such delayed trade should be encouraged. Let Apple’s debt to Kaspersky build up, with interest, but it’ll only be paid once sanctions end which will only happen once pre-determined conditions are met. It’s basically an increasing incentive to change course in a way that will result in sanctions being lifted.

There are probably some pretty severe downsides to this approach though.

Size really does matter for sites like this. Reddit still hosts many smaller subs for niche topics that often have limited toxicity. Lemmy can’t match it yet unfortunately.

Features like this can almost never be privacy-friendly because they’re developed expressly to violate your privacy. The value it provides you , as cool as that could be, is just how it’s sold.
