  1 kW is 3412 BTU/h (=BTUs)

  Most induction stovetops have a boost function with around 3-4 kW (that’s about 13000 BTUs).

  BUT contrary to a gas stove top, almost all of the energy is actually put into the pot instead of the surroundings (only 30-40% of the energy from a gas stove is used to heat the pot). Meaning that a 4 kW induction cooktop should be comparable to a 40’000 BTUs gas stove (single burner).

  eh, back when the “exodus” was happening it felt like every second post is about defederation. Nowadays you don’t hear much about it anymore, but if you only looked back then I see how you could come to that conclusion.

  Boost feels a lot like rif which I was using and which shutdown made me switch to lemmy.

• Why is OCR for handwritten content still that bad?

  The one made out of plastic? That one sucks compared to the one I mentioned before.

  archive.org is great, but is it just me or is the site just super slow all the time?

  From what I’ve found on safety datasheets it should be more like 3 g/kg. The numbers on this seem a bit off in general.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People who order "a decaff coffee with an extra shot" - why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ot says max. 0.3% caffeine content in the coffee dry matter. Roasted Arabica beans have around 1.5% caffeine (although it may vary significantly), meaning that decaf may have as much caffein as 20% of regular coffee.

  I remember around the same time we had a 300 MB monthly quota on dialup. It made me very wary of what I did online and how large different kinda of media is.

  Things changed a bit after we got a 4(?)GB monthly quota over 3G a few years later.

  There’s at least some logic in these controllers as they typically allow for dimming and turning specific lights on/off. So it might not be that straight forward.

  Google Lens is also a thing for general usage, and there are plenty options for more specific tasks such as Merlin for birds.
