Yep, there are mods for Minecraft that warn you that certain of their functions will trigger anticheat if used on a server (so only use those features only in single player, where your server doesn’t care if you cheat)

And burying entire states 2m (~6’) deep in ash and stone

With a valve, I guess, to release the pressure gently

But it hardly is. I call it baby jail (except due to where I spent my first few years, I tend to spell jail as gaol)
- Comment on Germany just now approved new laws that make setting up solar on your balcony super easy 1 week ago:
The stuff about rooms having solar access are for designers and architects to ensure they design to put those rooms in appropriate places to get those rates
Also to protect against development that would shade such a room (but actually the whole yard in my jurisdiction)

6 to 9kWh is a generous amount to run a small home on

Our racism is completely unrelated to our classification. We are racist between homo sapiens and homo sapiens

If the weapon was like these (the fine stabbing sword) add “rapier duel painting” or “… drawing”

My dish washing robot doesn’t need to know anything. It does depend on me loading it, and putting the more heat affected stuff on the top shelf

The arts isn’t about art. Graduates of an arts degree are not generally artists

- Comment on *So far* 1 month ago:
Humans have only been farming grain for about 10 thousand years, and there’s not many other foods you can grind. Ancient humans ate a lot of meat, and babies after weaning ate meat, much of it pre-chewed by mum. Things like brain wouldn’t need to be chewed
- Comment on *So far* 1 month ago:
After that.

They have exactly one use, and that use is already well performed with spoons

We’re pretty sure that humans chewed food for their children before blenders and packaged baby food

And the jumping spiders have very cute faces, with their two large forward facing eyes
Though another hunting spider common in my bit of the world - the huntsman spider - isn’t nearly as cute, though we tolerate them in our houses, and they like our houses. They’re camouflaged for eucalypt bark, and they think they’re hidden when standing on flat painted wallboard

My partner and I have been together since before Google maps. On holiday she gets is lost, I find the way back. It makes for a nice way of seeing a town.
Of course now that “finding your way back” involves typing the location into your phone, anyone can do it and it becomes more of an affectation to use satellite free navigation

- Comment on Finland detects more GPS jammers as drivers increasingly try to hide their tracks | Yle News | Yle 1 month ago:
Yeah the scam shouldn’t last long. It should be easy to see if one of your drivers was jamming the GPS, and that would be cause to fire them.
Were they otherwise good the employer is in a strong position to force the employee to comply
