That’s insane! I pay a flat US$0.11/kWh, and if I wanted to go peak/off-peak it would be $0.15/0.06!

$0.51/kWh?! Where on earth is that?!

I don’t do a lot of the kind of gaming where refresh rate really matters (I don’t think Civilization needs to be 120hz) and for other things I do I’d much rather have the pixels, so 4k/60hz for me.

Efficiency

Does PeerTube offer RSS feeds?

How does that work for discovery, though?

That’s a neat solution

Oh yes, the avoidance is entirely for governmental reasons. There is so much that would be interesting to see otherwise. Sadly it seems to be a repeating theme in Russian history where some change happens that seems like the ordinary people are finally starting to get some freedom and stability but then some authoritarian gets in power and cracks down on any dissenting views, even minor. I guess outsiders have to catch it during the right window of time.

Windows are just so unsafe in Russia, aren’t they? I’m never getting near one if I ever go[ing] to Moscow.

I think like federated TikTok/Vine

I see a lot of people use https://catbox.moe/ for basic videos. You could also find a peertube instance

I’ve never heard of professional third-party review of open source code. That’s a service people offer?

I think in the US I’ve heard ETF/ACH transaction fees are usually around $2.50? It might be possible to have that apply across a batch, though, as in if you submit 10 payments to 10 different people as a single transaction it’s still just $2.50, or 25¢ per person. I’m only getting this from hearing accountants complain at companies I’ve worked with, so I don’t understand the details. But I’ve seen it pretty common with companies doing payouts to want to see a minimum amount before they actually send the payment, otherwise it’s not worth doing.

You can certainly be paid in cash legally. Finding an employer willing to do that, though, might be challenging. It would probably have to be retail or another business that regularly deals in cash.

Yeah, I feel like I trust Steam as long as Gabe is calling the shots at Valve. I’m sure it helps that they’re a private company. Hopefully whoever takes over after him will have learned the lesson that you can make a nearly unimaginable amount of money in this industry without putting the screws to the consumer. If they were public or let the business “experts” in I’m sure there would be all sorts of moves to extract more money from customers that would end my trust, but I feel like overall I have a couple of decades of experience at this point that Valve isn’t actively trying to hurt me.

I’ve been looking off and on for a few months, but it seems like there aren’t many options anymore like there were 20 years ago. A couple I’ve found are FlatPress and WriteFreely, but I haven’t tried any yet.

It’s not actually fully built or operational yet, if that’s a deal-breaker for you clicking in. It’s an interesting project, though!

I don’t think it addresses yet how the food pieces will be added to the game.

Question I’ve been meaning to ask: if I start with cloud can I move to self-hosted later? I’ve seen this before and it feels like a product I could make good use of, especially for getting tabs closed.

Caveat: Californians who add a driver’s license to their Apple or Google wallets must still carry their physical ID card as required by law.

What’s the point, then? I thought the reason for a digital ID was so you didn’t always need the physical one with you.
