If you're looking for a cheap good one, get those super cheap ones from AliExpress/etc. Imho these are soo much better than anything else you can get in the consumer space, and even some commercial ones because they are super responsive. The only downsides are that they're relatively small so reading the display with a large bowl on top is a bit difficult and they're probably not super accurate, especially with low loading. But that's not really an issue for cooking. They take regular AAA batteries that last for ages and the thing costs like under 5€. I've had mine for like 8 yrs now and aside from a bit of liquid that got into the display it still works completely fine.

Here's the type I'm talking about:

How else do you use your nutmeg?

If you look closely, a green shell gets thrown. So that would work.

No one commenting about this being physically impossible (unless the car in front is significantly slower/stopped)?

+1 for mediawiki

Although you really need to consider the peer group you are working with, and make the contribution as little work as possible. In my experience, as soon as the course is over people won't want to do any extra work like change the formatting or integrating with existing materials. And requiring to use a specific format (even if it's something dead simple as markdown) might already be too much friction.

In my experience shared cloud storage (GDrive, Dropbox,...) works quite well, even if the feature set is very limited. Being able to simply plonk your .docx/.pdf/.whatever into there is very easy and low friction.

A different solution I saw that worked was a forum where you could also upload files that could be categorized into the different courses and were then accessible by others. If you were to self-host this, you'd really want to make sure somehow that it's not exploited to spread malware or worse.

Anyways, I wouldn't think too much about how well the material can be represented, but rather how you can get your peers to continuously contribute to it. The best representation is useless without the data going with it.

Kind of interesting that these have been a thing in Europe. It's all just regular taps and the few ones I have seen weren't very popular.

the obsidian-git plugin. Auto commits and pulls/push every x minutes. Works great for me, I get full version control and works on all my platforms (Linux, Windows, Android). You just need to be careful with your .gitignore and add at least .obsidian/workspace.json to prevent conflicts.

Probably not suitable if you store larger files, but after a year of daily usage with tons of small images I'm still below 150 MB.

do you have any source that would provide 4k content? I feel like even 720p is good enough at a decent bitrate. But it also depends on the size of the screen and the distance to it.

2 kW is a ton of power required to keep a single room warm assuming you ran that continuously.

Might want to try citric or lactic acid instead at a proper dilution.

It's some piece of art and the resemblance is intentional. Search for "Buttplug Gnome" to find out more.

Well not if you're on Ubuntu and need the latest version of e.g. npm for some nvim plugin, because that version is not in the repository.
