  • Baby chicks cost $6 at a supply store, but I can get a rotisserie for $5? What is the real cost of having chickens?

  • Malt is the absolute cheapest part of brewing beer, I buy 55lb bags of it for $80 CAD (so like 40-60 USD), and there are multiple shops near me I can buy from. You only need a pot, a big ass mesh bag, a carboy/airlock, and a bottle capper if you don't have swing top bottles.

    To make 5 gallons of basic ass beer (yields like 48-54 bottles) you need 8-10lbs of grain (1lb of which is the fancy $2/lb malt; and 2lbs of which can be subbed for minute rice if you are doing an adjunct ale). You need 1, maybe 2oz of hops (hallertau is $2.50/oz). Yeast is $4-8 but is a 1 time cost because it's reusable. To make an IPA your malt cost is 25% higher and your hop cost is like 4x

    The economics are actually great, but that's fully contingent on you 1) placing no value on your time, and 2) not getting hooked and spending thousands on a stainless steel, PID controlled electronic brewing system, or a 4 tap home draught system (I did both)

  • Yeah I hate when I have to convert temperatures between systems, and then the nice round numbers that represent common values used in everyday life like 0, 20, 30, 40, and 100 become absolutely nonsensical values like 32, 68, 86, 104 and 212

    Metric measurements are only decimals in North America because things are fabricated to be round imperial numbers for the American market. When you buy a piece of lumber in Europe it's cut to 45x95mm which (shockingly) converts to the absolutely nonsensical 1.77165x3.74016 inch two by four

    Alberta man who claimed 'sexsomnia' cleared of sexually assaulting ex in his sleep | The Province

  • They slept in separate beds and it solved the issue.

    The alleged sexual assaults came to light in December 2022 when the complainant went to the Mounties trying to regain custody of the couple’s children after the couple split up.

    That's why

  • Mayor Mamdani says he has balanced NYC's budget, will not raise property taxes - CBS New York

    Jump

  • Yes I'm aware, it was literally a sarcastic comment, not a brain-dead take.

    When the state tax coffers are covering a 4 billion dollar municipal deficit, and the state coffers are disproportionately funded by NYC residents, it's just a case of the left hand stealing from the right pocket. There is still a 4 billion dollar deficit, it's just being paid for by either a different tax revenue stream, or budget cuts to a different set of services

  • Boxed mac & cheese hacked

    Jump

  • Canadian here - It's like our national dish. NOBODY calls it "mac and cheese" up here. Don't think of it as mac and cheese. don't compare it to mac and cheese. It's its own thing that occupies a completely different niche and scratches its own itch. Once you realize it's not meant to compare with real mac and cheese the healing can begin.

    Take a Kirkland beef hot dog and finely slice it into half moons, cook them in a saucepan until it is crispy, and then deglaze with milk and add the cheese powder, before mixing in the cooked noodles. Optionally slather it with ketchup and/or sriracha.

    Edit: Also president's choice (a no-name brand here in Canada) is objectively better than every other boxed mac and cheese product in existence (I have done blind taste tests) - Galen Weston is still a prick though

  • ONLYOFFICE accuses "Euro-Office" maker Nextcloud and IONOS of License Violation

    Jump

  • The AGPL license allows the license holder to specify additional terms of the license that require preservation of specified reasonable attributions or legal notices - this is covered in 7B, and the onlyoffice license specifies that the logo must be preserved for attribution.

    Assuming a logo legally counts as reasonable attribution (IANAL) that would put only office in the right here, but holy shit, the fact that the license allows these modifications to be put on line #655 rather than line #2 is absurd. I, like most people I assume, only read far enough into the license to figure out whether it's MIT or GPL

    What's going on with the excessive javascript on Lemvotes?

    Jump

  • I only took a cursory glance but a lot of that belongs to the UI framework (svelte)

    Similar to react/vue, it's used to render the content on the page, and automatically update what's shown on the page when variables change value. This basically replaced jquery and the callback-hell that was mid-2000s web development

  • Rod monochromacy (achromatopsia)

    Achromatopsia is when you don’t have any cones. This is true color blindness. You won’t see any colors, and will probably have reduced or low vision and other complications.
