I saw a (what now I understand to be a single stage) steam engine at a museum a few months ago. I must understand how this works. Anyone have any good links to information from "concept" to "operation" for steam engines?

Thank you.

Cooking (self.autism)
submitted 9 months ago by epl692 to c/autism@lemmy.world

Does anyone else do "Iterative cooking"? I like to make sometime, and then make it again, with a little tweak to make it better. I record all of my ingredients and amounts of everything so I can cook consistantly. It's my dream to make some favorites, and make them the same way every time.

I'm considering making some upgrades to my ender 3 Pro, such as one of the multi material upgrades, but that would require more motors. Anyone know of a good motherboard? Thanks!

Someone on the internet was wrong. Today it was me.

Well... I visited there site... That's... Ummm... Well... Maybe there servers can cool down by going to hell? That's.... That's not good man. I may even have seen some sort of terrorist activity on the home page. I'm not saying I would be happy about saying this... But maybe we should defederate. Eats Humble Pie

I'm not saying there's no place for defederation. I'm just saying the reasons given seem... Idea driven. Then again my experience with Lemmy has been pretty good so far. The post I saw was a "I don't like these people and that group over there is thinking about blocking them, let's join in". People keep telling me it's not about taste... Maybe I need to go look for myself. I'm just thinking about a conversation I had on mastodon where someone showed me a (hilarious) screenshot of Facebook telling them that they used hate speech.... And it was just talking about a car. I guess... If they "stay in there lane" and leave our instances communitys groups alone, what is the harm in allowing two servers to speak. If on the other hand, they make threats, or mucking up the system (like is the concern with meta on mastodon) then perhaps defederating is the issue. MY PERSONAL CONCERN: Lemmy takes off, mom/grandma makes an account, and starts following content only mom or grandma would like. And boom... I'm horribly confused at the dinner table about those murder parties she's planning to go to... And I'm going "what the hell? what are you talking about." Let's be honest, I want the firehose... I need to keep an eye on those crazies... All of them. Plus... I like to be offended. Keeps me humble to know people don't like me.

They all get baked in the shower.

Thank you autocorrect, I'm leaving it.

Hello, looking for a way to send Doge to qr codes, maybe a wallet that reads the qr codes on the desktop client? Just curious, I'm toying with accepting doge for tech support I do for people. Otherwise is there a good way to accept payment this way?

The SDF mastodon instance "social" is throwing errors for me, is this a known thing?

I enjoy reading, and like to ask random questions on AMAs from time to time, did that make the move? If so, where? If not, why?

I recall having to explain to someone that we could use netscape navigator, even though we paid for "MacNet" internet service. There was concern that it was not allowed at our house.

It's working pretty good for me. And federation is great. But I can't seem to upload photos. Maybe there's a file size cap.

So I had this idea, but did anyone have a better idea? Is there a reasonably priced solar system anyone knows of that can get me around 20-30Ah? Or is it mAh... I'm still trying my units right.

Can you buy cryptocurrency? SDF has been known to accept that from time to time. Run the 'dues' command on the system, or contact membership.

Just curious, what does one need to get started with this thing? Probably more then what comes in the box? Looks interesting that's for sure.

Good system to get in to. (self.retrocomputing)
submitted 1 year ago by epl692 to c/retrocomputing

So, Last year I lost my vintage computers (most of them a work in progress) in a house fire. I've started rebuilding my collection. I've got my TI-83+ still, I consider that to be one. It was with me when the fire happened, and I have an old windows 95 computer I got my hands on, still not sure what to do with him yet. Ideas on projects/places to go next. Would love to find something reliable that can takes datasets, but is reasonably priced.
