There are lots of other marketplace sites (e.g. I was just looking at appliancesconnection.com) - but also generally I either google the name of the thing I'm looking for or look up the name of the seller on amazon and buy it from their site.

For the comments - this is currently referring to their cloud service, Microsoft Azure. But, yea same story as Microsoft ever was

ah. True. Wasn't thinking about the modifications required and renting.

I just can't get into Aeropresses but I keep wanting to give them a shot.

I just have a metal pour-over, it works pretty well and is unlikely to break on me anytime soon (as, it's just a thin metal sheet with holes in it)

You can have a switch such that you use "Shore Power" / the grid when your batteries are low and your batteries when they are full.

For anyone interested: I absolutely do not recommend as a DIY project, hire an electrician. You will kill yourself by stopping your heart or burn your house down. Or both. At the same time.

Aw. I'm so excited for there to be some fake "make energy from water vapor" blockchain bullshit company. Then we get to say vaporware as a double entendre.

(I do feel like I vaguely remember something about harvesting energy from humidity? Tiny nanotubes or something?)

It is limited, yes, the pixel you place is one amongst many - you are just one part of the much larger project. That's the fun part

From bulletin board experiences back in the aughts - I don't know how this wasn't a similar problem? If it was a recent thread - it got interaction. I think that had the benefit of not having a "front page" so you could see 10 or 20 posts for each sub-forum. Which is similar enough to just going to a subreddit and looking at the most recent posts - but most folks, I think, don't interact like that with these types of interfaces unless they have a specific thing to look for?

Maybe a degree of refinement?

  • dust accumulates and becomes dirt. Natural
  • a beaver builds a dam out of nearby fallen logs, natural
  • we create ovens and break down rocks to create bricks and get specific metal alloys to create wires and and you have the hoover damn. Part of the natural world? Sure. Organic? Mostly (carbon based, sans the metals). Refined? Unquestionably. Natural? Maybe not

You don't always need to meet the legal standard of a crime to be a piece of shit

Dual-power ain't this. But sure - if you can make good money, use it to support the people around you and your community.
