My first attempt at beef short ribs! in c/bbq

Looks awesome!

I've only made beef ribs twice, but both times they have come out exactly how I want brisket to come out, with significantly less work. I'm a fan.

This looks kind of like a dinosaur! Checkmate, evolutionists! in c/insanepeoplefacebook

My nephew has a bunch of depictions of dinosaurs in his room.

The only logical conclusion is that dinosaurs have roamed the earth within the last 6 years.

Isn't that right in the definition of the word? They co-operate to form a word.

Cooperating means working together to accomplish a goal, sometimes by doing different tasks; not necessarily just doing the same thing and duplicating effort, as would be the case if they made the same sound.

If anything, we should be casting shade at that lazy hyphen who ducked out early instead of sticking around to make the etymology clear.

Stonehenge sprayed with paint by environmental protesters in c/[email protected]

But are their actions causing public outrage at: a) the causes and purveyors of climate change, or b) the people protesting climate change?

I don't think the "any attention is good attention" adage applies to something as politically polarized as climate change.

This is peak ATBGE.

I would never in a million years wear those myself, but I admire the hell out of them.

I don't know the correct way to spell zhouzh, but I know for a fact it is not "jooj".

"Hallow," a sculpture by Daniel Popper in c/interestingasfuck
[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

I don't remember if I saw this one in person or not, but the Morton rotates through large, nature-inspired sculptures like this every few years. And you're right, a lot of them will include natural materials but they are generally metal or concrete shells over a metal frame.

Here's their current installation: https://mortonarb.org/explore/activities/exhibitions/of-the-earth/

Communication is a 2-way street.

Writing out an incoherent, unpunctuated paragraph is not only lazy on the writer's part, it's disrespectful in asking the reader to put in extra work to decipher what the actual hell they are talking about. Fortunately, it's also a pretty good sign that there's not a ton of value in whatever they wrote.

it really do be like that tho in c/politicalhumor

So.... MAGA SCOTUS judicial-overreaching your rights away is just an optical illusion; and in actuality you're grabbing at your own rights?

I'm confused at what this is trying to say.

[Request] Emphasize / De-emphasize communities (lemm.ee)
 

I have no idea if this is possible to implement on the client side, but it would be really cool to be able to pick which subbed communities are emphasized or de-emphasized in your feed.

For example if you're on a niche sub that only gets a few posts per week, maybe you want to ALWAYS see new content regardless of how many upvotes or comments it gets.

Conversely, I enjoy a few meme subs, but right now Risa completely dominates new/hot/best filtering for me. I'd be perfectly happy just seeing the top few posts sprinkled throughout my feed.

Printer steppers causing lights to flicker (lemm.ee)
 

I've noticed for awhile now that whenever my Ender 3 S1 Pro is running, some of the lights on the same circuit will flicker seemingly in time with changes in X or Y stage movement. I'd guess that it's a combination of these stages causing minor voltage spikes/dips when they accelerate, and certain cheaper LED bulbs don't tolerate those spikes/dips well.

Has anyone else experienced this and implemented a good fix? It seems like some kind of power smoothing/conditioning filter plugged in between the printer and the wall would help isolate it. Most of those devices seem designed to isolate the device from fluctuations in the mains, and I'm not sure if it generally works both ways (seems like it should...)

Googling around most people are blaming similar issues on poor wiring, which I suppose could be the case even though this is a newer house. But I see very little in terms of actual proven effective fixes, even though it sounds pretty straightforward on its face.

Advice / thoughts?

F*$# cancer (lemm.ee)
 

Not sure where else to post this, but I just learned that an old buddy lost his lengthy battle with cancer this evening after putting up a solid fight. If anyone feels like raising a glass to a random stranger, I'm sure he'd appreciate it.

Fuck cancer, and be excellent to each other 🥃

Opening photo in landscape mode clips off the bottom edge (lemm.ee)

Basically, the title. When opening a photo with my phone in landscape mode, frequently the bottom 5-10% of the photo is clipped off, and I cannot scroll down or zoom out to view it. Oddly, if I zoom in enough, then I can scroll down to view the clipped part.

I've only noticed it when my phone is rotated in landscape mode, so I'm not entirely sure if it's limited to that mode, or if a tall enough picture would cause the same thing in portrait mode

How to remove instance login for selection menu? (lemm.ee)
 

I accidentally created a guest account by tapping "browse as guest" when trying to view an instance. This created a Guest_1 account in my list of instance accounts. Is there any way to remove this?

[Feature Request] Show parent post when replying (lemm.ee)
 

It would frequently be helpful to have the post you are directly replying to visible in the Reply screen. Or perhaps a "Show/Hide Parent Comment" toggle on the Reply screen on case you want to refer back or quote specific details from the parent.

Request: Ability to link certain view settings to different accounts (lemm.ee)

For example, have "Show NSFW" active when logged in to one account, but disabled when switching to another. Because... reasons 😉

I believe Jerboa has this feature (account specific view settings}

Really enjoying the app by the way!

PLA or PETG for shop light mounting brackets? (lemm.ee)

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/1009849

I'm planning to print up a bunch of brackets to mount LED shop lights (very similar to these) to the ceiling in my garage. My plan is to use an upside-down "U" shape bracket that screws into a joist/drywall anchor in the middle and then sort of clips around the sides of the metal frame.

Maybe filament type doesn't matter much here, but I'd rather not come out to one of the lights having fallen on my car if I can help it 😅

I think the main considerations are just temperature and stiffness. It can get up to about 85F in the garage on the hottest summer days, and probably a few degrees warmer by the ceiling. The lamps are cheap LED tubes, so the metal housing only gets slightly warm to the touch (say 90-100F or so). I know PLA is a bit stiffer at room temp, but I'm worried it might soften too much at the worst case of warm temperatures.

Any thoughts on PLA vs PETG for this situation?
