Nah, it’s just the 51st state. Didn’t you get Trump’s memo?

Well, apparently JD asked the EU to take Trumps comments seriously. Which is funny to me. The VP has to ask world leaders to stop assuming the president is just talking BS as they are used to…

A German Satire newspaper suggested changing the name to Epstein Island, so Trump would lose interest very quickly, and deny ever wanting to annex it.

Orange figures would have been more fitting.

Fighting each other again and again, which I don’t hate them for — but it is very stressful. They could accomplish so much more if they would cooperate with each other…

For me it’s just sheer discipline and the occasional motivational drop in weight to a new low. I set myself a clear goal I want to reach and stick to that plan, knowing roughly by when I will reach it.

Discipline: I just forbid myself any kind of sweets (no chocolate, gummybears, chips, cookies, etc for 3 months now) and try to eat as little as I can stick with. This is most likely not the most healthy way to diet, but I can take a strict discipline for a little time better than having to be only a little strict for a much longer time. Most days I only eat something in the evening, ideally some salad or cottage cheese with veggies. Drinking lots of water and coffee helps. Sometimes a zero sugar energy drink which helps soothe the need for something sweet.

Motivation: I track my weight using the app Happy Scale, but any spreadsheet to average out numbers will work. Basically I get on the scale every morning before drinking or eating anything, and log my weight. It will still fluctuate daily, but tracking a rolling average helps to see it go down overall. And if for some days in a row it doesn’t, I just have to stick to the laws of physics which dictate that my body can’t create energy out of thin air, so it’s most likely just water being stored more some days than others.

Now divide them evenly between 0 people.

How to dry silica gel (feddit.org)
 

I have a questions I haven't found answered anywhere, but maybe someone here can help out.

First, some background:

I have bought this silica gel with indicator a while ago and have used it in my AMS and also for storing my filament in ziplock bags.

I now want to dry some of the silica gel, and have looked at the various options there are. I want to rule out the use of my kitchen appliances, as I am not fully convinced of the silica with indicator being really fully non-hazardous. I also recently bought a Creality Space Pi dryer, which I would like to use for drying my silica as well. Of course I would need to print a container for that, and since I only have PLA and PETG available at the moment, I wouldn't be able to drive the dryer too hot.

Online you can find many different opinions about the ideal drying temperature for silica gel, ranging from 60°C to 145°C.

Efficient energy usage is no big concern for me with this, as my PV modules produce a lot of excess power during the current season.

Question:

What temperature should I dry the silica gel at, and does a longer drying time at lower temperature equal the same results as a quicker drying at higher temperature?

Or does higher temperature actually remove more humidity overall, which a lower temperature can maybe not achieve regardless of time?

Why is Neuromancer so hard to get in to? (feddit.org)
 

I just started reading Neuromancer, and finished the first two chapters. Can someone encourage me to keep on reading? It’s just so… disorienting. Very quick scene changes, hard to follow dialogues (who is actually talking?), too much jargon (I have read up on some, to get the gist), … I just feel lost, and doubt I will enjoy it at some point.

I like various degrees of scifi, and many people recommended the book (and the ones following it). I also fought through some harder chapters in Trisolaris, Children of Memory, The Expanse books, CS Lewis‘ Space Trilogy, … but Neuromancer is on awholenother level.

Is it just me? Did anyone else have a hard time with it? Does it get better? Is it worth it?

ECC with N100 (e.g. Aoostar N1)? (feddit.org)
 

Has anyone tried to run their Aoostar N1 or similar N100 systems with ECC memory? I haven’t found any indication on whether this would work, but don’t want to buy and regret it.
