I bought a kobo (2022 maybe?) pretty much entirely because (at the time anyway) it had the best on-device integration with Overdrive. not sure if kindle, nook, etc still require you to browse and check out books on a secondary device and th

Nice branding. I wonder how much butterfly habitat has been/is being replaced with data centers?

this site never fails to impress me with how in-depth it is. I (re) started running several years ago and the world of shoes is dizzying. I still don't have a great grasp on it but I'm glad I've found some shoes that are reli

the episode about the ice breaking up - where everyone is acting out of character - is one of my favorite episodes of television. great show.

Been said, but you can outright buy Capture One with no subscription. I am a fuji shooter and have been using C1 in this way for quite a while now.

that's an insane amount of noise at 200 ISO.

I would be just fine with a return to Craigslist but it's still mostly useless in my neck of the woods despite once being the main (digital) tool for p2p sales.

I have a similar story. I quit in like 2016 or so and 9ish years later I wanted to shop for a used car for my oldest kid. I know already, of course, that Facebook now holds a monopoly on peer to peer sales of goods like that so I tried to m

I tried it (PopOS) on my old gaming laptop. It worked when it worked but when it didn't, it REALLY didn't. Linux unfortunately does not support my preferred (which I use semi-professionally) photo software, either (Capture One). L

incredible project but unless I'm misunderstanding what he is comparing it to, this is only a few hundred dollars/euros less than a used leica m digital body per a quick ebay search.

assuming that you're talking about a driver's license, you're leaving out the important steps of passing driving tests and, more importantly, having a car.

We're counting down the days to August 30 in our house as my spouse is a NASA contractor who works at a program with a current expected budget cut of 40%, IIRC. I sure hope these bills pass and the cuts don't happen, but it's

~25 years ago I could have taken you to multiple entirely dead streams within a 20 minute drive of where I grew up - and you don't get very far in 20 minutes on Appalachian roads. Over large swaths of my home state, in fact, I could ha

I'm not going to dispute your over-arching point (because I know the data very well), but as a lifelong resident of Appalachia, I can assure you there has been some real and significant reduction in the negative environmental impact of

The video of this was the first big file that my brother and I downloaded from the internet circa 1995-6 or so. It took a long, long time over our measly 14.4 connection but it was worth every minute.

The median home price graphic and statistic is pretty astonishing. This site: https://dqydj.com/historical-home-prices/ has the same data in a format where you can adjust the time period of the graph; Late 2019 to May

> The degree of "El Nino" influence is presumably known, and if its strength is not related with global warming in complicated and unknown ways it would be good to overlay it as a distinct effect. A brief web search suggests th

lone star ticks and dog ticks are relatively easy to spot as they are "big" in the grand scheme of things, but they are still pretty tiny. deer ticks, the primary carrier of lyme disease, are notoriously small and very hard to spo

No, off trail - hunting, fishing, mushroom hunting, flipping rocks, playing around etc. Ticks are everywhere that animals are in my experience, however, and a hiking trail is no exception. Tall grass does seem worse but I’ve had many days

Just seeing this now - as other posters have stated, I use the low concentration clothing treatment, the Sawyer brand specifically. It works very well and even seems to last for the time period advertised on the label (6 weeks I think).

It's worth taking the time to learn to ID the lone star tick if you haven't already as it is thought to be the main carrier, per the CDC page linked from the original article [0]. I use permethrin pretty religiously these days, es

13,500 mi is... not much. would have assumed it to be much higher since this article is only concerned about carbon. it's a bit of a shame this article didn't also do this analysis for the other pollutants emitted by gasoline cars
