Does ammonium chloride brine not freeze at different pressures?

Should I not be cooking anything tomato based with my cast iron?

I love that the best way to fix cast iron is to cook bacon.

This isn’t so much a vision for the future, as it’s an option right now.

I can’t wait until work puts in car chargers- Top off the battery for free during the day, come home and sell that juice back to the grid, baby!

I’m interested in your comment about perceptions, could you unpack that a little more?

Colour of Magic is the first Discworld, and one of Pratchett’s first novels. He grew into his voice a lot more over the course of the next fifty-something novels.

Most of the strongest, most unique women I’ve read have been of Pratchett’s creation. And not just heroes that happen to be described as female, but fully fleshed out women ranging from feminists who wish to support their husband to trans females pretending to be males dressing as women in order to fight the patriarchy.

If you’re willing to give the Discworld another go, and I urge you to, there’s a couple of reading order guides online. ‘Guards, Guards!’ is generally recommended as a good starting point, but I’d also suggest Wyrd Sisters, Mort, Going Postal, or if you really want to dive into the gender thing, Equal Rites or Monstrous Regiment.

I’m struggling to understand. I’m imagining an Apple Surface, is that what you are thinking?

If I wanted to access my Jellyfin at home from a smart TV elsewhere, is that possible (securely)? Or would I need something that can run a vpn?

It’s a dangerous road to walk for something that would be ‘kind of nice’ in very specific situations.

I’m imagining a situation where the caller does not want it to be known that they have called emergency. Hostage situations, domestic violence, home intrusions… Last thing you want when you’re hiding in a dark cupboard from an armed stalker is your phone to start blasting at full volume and flashing lights because a well intentioned operator wanted to see through the camera.

YSK: Signal is a great secure private messenger app comparable to others on the market. (restoreprivacy.com)

“When you use Signal, your data is stored in encrypted form on your devices. The only information that is stored on the Signal servers for each account is the phone number you registered with, the date and time you joined the service, and the date you last logged on.”...

I want to use Signal. Not everyone else on my contacts list does.

It was much easier to convince people to switch to Signal when you could just say it takes the place of your SMS app. Now it’s just another app to keep track of.
