It would have probably been faster to just set it on a windowsill or somewhere with adequate airflow.

But it doesn’t help with evaporation. It actually prevents it by preventing air from circulating.

It makes it awful for the purpose of drying wet electronics. It actually impedes the drying process by preventing air from circulating. Plus rice is typically dusty, and you don’t want rice dust in your damp electronics.

You’ll have a dryer device much faster if you just point a fan at it.

Thank you for this. I’ve been struggling to get wireguard running in hotio containers on my Synology, and this looks like it might be what I need.

Edit: it worked! Had to fiddle around with it because it didn’t like multiple containers in one compose yaml

Phobias

Exactly, anyone still this clueless is a troll.

That’s what happens when you fire your cyber security experts.

That’s why I have an awake confirmation. I have to do a thing to shut off the alarm, and 5 minutes later it asks if I’m awake. If I don’t confirm, the alarm goes off again.

Of course, depending on what I have to do to shut it off, that loop can last hours.

Well, yeah, but in this case you’d be selling it to someone who will fix it.

That thing was a Ford fluke. I drove mine 20k miles after I got it without charging the oil, and it never complained. The fucker actually got more fuel efficient the longer I drove it. Ended up somewhere like 32 city.

I miss it

I live in an area with lots of pollen and high humidity and I just rinse the house off every so often. A pressure washer absolutely isn’t a requirement.

No, it’s nothing like renting because you’re financially responsible for literally everything. Need a new roof? Better be prepared to shell out $20k minimum. Need a new HVAC system? Yeah, it’s not much cheaper.

You don’t necessarily build as much equity in a home as people seem to think. With the costs of maintenance, insurance, property taxes, etc. it’s entirely possible to lose money with a house.

Sure, if you’re only looking at the purchase price vs selling price it looks nice, but there’s tons of costs that only serve to keep the selling price from dropping.

It’s not a bad analogy, you’re just not understanding the core concept that a higher power interfering is different than interpersonal interactions.

I mean, that’s one of the downsides to home ownership. If it’s not yard work, there’s always some sort of maintenance that needs doing.

You can either put it off until it becomes an emergency, pay someone out the ass to do it, or you can find some way to force yourself to do it.

I say this as I’m taking a break from climbing in my attic to replace the AC condensate pump line that I’ve been putting off for 3 months, so I don’t have to keep dumping 5 gallon buckets of water out twice a day. The quote to have a pro do it was $750

One thing to keep in mind is that the used car market is fucked right now because of the tariffs. You’re going to pay a premium for any used car from a dealership for the next long while.

My advice? Get a gray title on the car and sell it to someone who will fix it up. I hit a deer with my old 99 contour, and the insurance adjuster totaled it because my back seat was messy (I wouldn’t have believed it if he hadn’t said it to my face; the whole story is a trip). They gave us $2400 for it, we kept the car, and sold it to a family friend for $1200 because it just needed new headlight assemblies. We only paid $1200 for it in the first place, but my step dad knew the dealer and got it for what he paid.

That’s only liability insurance, though.

It might be worth it if you have a Jeep for the glass replacement alone, though

Remember, the only difference between a cult and a religion is membership levels.

Opportunity - Noun:

a favorable juncture of circumstances

• Merriam Webster

I suppose people dying is favorable if you want to push your cult on their grieving families.
