Price of gas just went up overnight which got me thinking how silly it is that gasoline is priced by supply/demand when everybody needs it and isn't going to buy less of it because it's too expensive.

This seems more like an introvert thing. If I've already exhausted my social battery for the day, ain't no way I'm agreeing to interact with more people later.

Don't dead, open inside.

More specifically, we force it to undergo phase changes under different pressures, and in doing so it absorbs/releases latent heat in the air. It's converting latent heat to sensible heat.

Also, are you “undiagnosed, but suspicious-to-confident that you have it”, or are you just taking this for a spin?

I heavily suspect that I have it (edit: inattentive type.) My intention here was to gauge the effects of medication, and if impressed I was hoping to be more encouraged to seek professional help.

 

I took 30mg of Vyvanse about 4 hours ago for the first time. I am undiagnosed and this medication was not prescribed to me, but I hope it's ok to post here.

I'm curious what the effects are supposed to feel like for ADHD symptoms? Right now I mostly just feel kinda zen, and I'm honestly a little underwhelmed at my ability to focus on tasks; it seems nearly completely the same as any other day, but I'm more relaxed and maybe zoning out a bit more than usual.

I really was hoping to be able to sit down at my desk this morning and start hammering away at my work more effectively. That has not been the case so far.

Which is exactly why we should have 30 km/h speed limits. The difference in survivability is massive at lower speeds.

To paraphrase Penn Jillette, I rape as many people as I want every single day. And that number is zero.

What about their promise to deliver a finished product?

Never ceases to amaze me how any word on new GNOME improvements brings out all the Plasma users

Having the credit card certainly helps. I get about $20 back in triangle points every month.

My Linux Mint 22 iso currently has a ratio of 11908.34 over the last year and a bit.

Edit: linuxmint-22.2-cinnamon-64bit.iso is gaining fast with a ratio of 314 in just two weeks.

I may have been a bit bold trying to jump straight in to nighttime photography on my very first roll of film but I think I was able to get away with it. This was shot at EV+1 which I think held the shutter open longer than I expected, causing some shake.

Tire bead (lemmy.ca)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by apprehensively_human@lemmy.ca to c/bikewrench@lemmy.world
 

This is a Schwalbe studded winter tire I bought a few months ago, and I'm not sure what exactly I did to get it like this but for some reason the bead seems to be warped or stretched. It doesn't want to fit my rims. There's a small section of the tire that's popped out of the rim, and when I try to lever it back into place the bead pulls out further down.

I've tried this tire on two different rims with the same results, and to make doubly sure it isn't the rims I put on one of my old Schwalbe Marathon tires which fit perfectly. Both tires are 40-635 700b.

Is this repairable? I don't have much experience dealing with tires but I find it unusual that this tire seemed to be fine until now when I changed out the wheel.

 

iam8bit is coming out with a new Collector's Edition as well as the Echoes of the Eye soundtrack on vinyl. Pre-orders start on February 29th.

 

I counted conservatively just shy of 50 of these little guys on an hour long walk.

 

When my stubble grows in, I just have to play with it. When I shave it off, I just have to feel how smooth it is.

It's maddening and I recognize that people must think I look ridiculous with my hand always stroking my chin.

 

When getting an android system notification for a new comment reply, tapping the notification slide takes me to the Mentions tab of the inbox instead of to the Replies tab.

Not sure if this is intended behaviour but seems like a bug.

Thanks for the hard work!
