Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•what are some phrases that you use in your hobby or work that would make no sense to outsiders?10·2 years agoI’ve got three 473 100’s and two 532 300’s running, so use the orange OD7’s.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your favourite things under 50$ that make your life a bit easier or more pleasant?5·2 years agoIt does occasionally catch on the inside of my pocket when I take it out, but usually it’s not a problem. And the extra grip is worth far more to me. I have literally never dropped my phone since I got one, and I can use my Pixel 6 Pro with one hand easily. I would never go without one.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto science@lemmy.world•Flowers Are Spreading in Antarctica as Summer Temperatures Soar7·2 years agoNobody was ever worried about the planet. We are worried about the ecosystems that we rely on to survive.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto PlayStation | PS5@lemmy.world•PS5 Controller charging issues after recent update7·2 years agoThis is going to sound ridiculous, but I found that the USB-C cable included with my PS5 will only work with my Anker USB charger if the USB-C connector is flipped the right way. In one orientation it works, and in the other it doesn’t.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•People who work from home all the time ‘cut emissions by 54%’ against those in office2·2 years agoYeah but that only takes a couple months even in bad conditions.
Naming the book would be a spoiler because the spoiler was already described. The only way to not spoil the book is to not know what book it is that was spoiled in the description.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are straws an unnecessary (but convenient) invention?3·2 years agoWhen I was a kid, a wasp went into my uncle’s beer can at a backyard BBQ. My uncle didn’t notice and when he took a drink he swallowed the wasp. It stung him 5 times on the inside of his throat and esophagus, and he had to be rushed to the hospital because his neck was swelling up. He wasn’t allergic or anything; I guess that can just happen if you are literally stung from the inside. He survived, but it was a very close call, according to the doctor.

Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Perseverance Mars rover spies big sunspot rotating toward Earth (photos)English13·2 years agoThis won’t affect us on earth. We will just be able to see it.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto Android@lemmy.world•How does everyone feel about Google Pixel phones?English6·2 years agoI think he is talking about the fingerprint sensor. It blinds me at night too
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Incandescent light bulbs are officially banned in the U.S.English7·2 years agoYou are correct about everything but I feel I should point out that the amount of heat produced by an incandescent bulb in your fridge is miniscule compared to the heat energy of the warm air that enters your fridge as soon as you open the door. Cold air sinks due to its density and so when you open the door it all falls out and your fridge must work it’s ass off to cool all the new air back down to the set temperature. The heat added by an incandescent bulb for a few seconds is basically irrelevant.
This is also why chest freezers are so tremendously efficient. When you open the lid, the cold air stays inside. Very little mixing occurs with the rest of the environment.

It led to the LED!
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto PlayStation@lemmy.world•Official PlayStation Wireless Earbud Rumored FunctionsEnglish3·2 years agoThe article mentions a USB transceiver so it probably isn’t using Bluetooth for gaming. Probably 2.4 GHz wireless which won’t have any noticeable latency.
You’ll have to speak up, I’m wearing a towel.
Event_Horizon5@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Floods, fires and deadly heat are the alarm bells of a planet on the brink8·2 years agoNobody is claiming or worried that all life will go extinct. What sucks is that we are fucking over all the animals that we know and love. If elephants go extinct, there will never be elephants again. Same with whales and koalas and sloths and bees. They will all be gone forever like dinosaurs and dodo birds and thylacines and trilobites.

But why do pacific salmon go through all these changes and die after mating only once, while Atlantic salmon can do the same thing but survive to mate many years in a row?
