- Comment on Why do some say they own or have bought something that they technically haven't (e.g. domain names, expensive things, etc.)? 1 week ago:
At least in Germany, the communal tax related to the house are payed indirectly from the tenants via the landlord.
- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 2 weeks ago:
Indeed the regulator, e.g. the Bundesnetzagentur, will knock on your door and inspect your radio and wifi devices. That way, some years ago they’ve found a malefunctioning radio alarm clock in my area.
- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 2 weeks ago:
Some parts of the spectrum in between 2.4 and 5 GHz are used by the mobile communication standards LTE and 5G (also higher frequencies). GSM, DVB-T, and FM radio operate at lower frequencies.

- Comment on Do zinc tablets and toothpaste counteract each other in the mouth? 2 weeks ago:
Why are you taking zinc? I was under the impression that intaking zinc is a terrible idea and should be avoided at all cost.
Zinc is necessary for our body to make use of vitamine C. That’s why both are often combined in tablets.
The problem when welding brass or zinc coated metals ist the amount of zinc one is expoed to is uncontrollably high. Therefore one can get an zinc intoxication. Another point is that zinc oxide nano particles which are produced when welding are inhaled causing lung damage.
- Comment on xkcd #3058: Tall Structures 5 weeks ago:
The comic lists tall structures existing in this moment. Aside from not starting at ground level, as an experiment, the space tether does not persist until today.

Usually, you notice it, as Mastodon automatically adds an @username@instance for everybody the commment replies to, Lemmy doesn’t.
- Comment on Is there really nothing the EU or NATO can do to stop Russian vessels cutting energy and communication cables at the Baltic sea? 1 month ago:
That wouldn’t be good for the fragile ecosystem in the Baltic sea.

The known types of angler fish are much smaller than humans and they do not prey on researchers.^[citation ^needed]
- Comment on U.S. start-up unveils ‘world’s largest’ transparent organic PV window 1 month ago:
Maybe, as heating is contained in the term “HVAC”, there is no real contribution to heating beside perhaps better isolation, and HVAC was used beside only the “VAC” part being affected.
- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 1 month ago:
No offense taken.
- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 1 month ago:
I would suggest it’s the shadow the flame throws onto the coat of the glass maker, as they probably had a light source behind the camera while filming.

- Comment on YSK You can substitue blood for eggs in recipes 2 months ago:
Yes, you can:
If you beat the blood, it turns pink and becomes a stable foam - perfect for baking sponge cakes or meringues.

- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 4 months ago:
In Germany, you may also use the built in DVB-C receiver of the TV for free TV and an additional CI card for pay TV. But cable companies want you to use their set top boxes.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 4 months ago:
Similar for me. I have an old Philips “smart” (actually today it is very dumb as basically all services are disabled and all apps heavily outdated) TV which I occasionally use for watching TV, but most times I use the attached Raspberry Pi with Kodi for watching public German Mediathek, Youtube or Amazon Prime.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 4 months ago:
A TV usually comes with a remote, a monitor doesn’t. Additionally, you can use it to watch linear TV if you don’t feel like making an election.
- Comment on How can I migrate my current Lemmy profile to another lemmy instance? 5 months ago:
AfaIk, posts and comments cannot be exported.
For the rest you may use the “export settings” function in the “personal settings” section on the webpage of your Lemmy instance (yet I don’t know what is actually exported).
Alternatively, you may use one of the tools mentioned in this post (the post is in German, the linked webpages are in English): https://slrpnk.net/post/10923543
- Comment on Can Bash aliases be nested? 5 months ago:
Ah, obviously you’re right and bash is less tolerant than I’ve had in my mind. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-useful-bash-aliases-and-functions
- Comment on Can Bash aliases be nested? 5 months ago:
Preferred over alias is function llaa { … }. Alias is for backwards compatibility.
Again what learned. What is wrong with having spaces around the equals sign, though?

- Comment on Solar panels between railway tracks? 5 months ago:
The 600000 € probably include the development cost. Thus, on a larger scale, the cost per unit length will decrease significantly.
