I’m eventually going for a hybrid heat pump model but I mentioned a cheap electric resistive one as a preheater because it’s easy to use as a dump load

I just got my two 314 AH batteries and 10KW inverter yesterday, so I’m not at the “spare solar power” point yet, but a lot of people will have a second electric water heater (in “front” of the main one) that acts as a dump load and pre-heats the water before it gets to the main tank.

I’m looking at getting a Slate EV truck hopefully next year, so that will also charge from my installation.

Grid-tie and exporting surplus PV generation isn’t an option for me due to electric company shenanigans.

I suppose when I do get to the excess PV point, I might just buy additional batteries

Still classier (less unclassy?) than these:

Lol at the afterthought of this: “Enterprise-Deez Nuts”

(best dead-eyed stare I could find)

At least they waited until Wesley left the ship :shrug:

I never really got the humor there, lol, but I’m lamenting the loss of 80s TV because I had a lot of good Golden Girls posts since I’m finally watching it for the first time.

My (limited) understanding is that there’s no straightforward way to do that at least in Lemmy.

You mean the images going down fairly regularly?

My Minimal Phone has two physical SIM slots, though that’s not exactly a mass market device nor suitable for everyone lol.

These are all 90s cartoons, so if you can find them:

• Batman: The Animated Series (the one with Mark Hamill as the Joker)
• Animaniacs
• Tiny Toon Adventures
• Chip n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers
• Pinky and the Brain Saw you have that one already

Come to Quarks. Quarks is fun. Come right now, don’t walk, run!

I get that it isn’t the same but when all you have is a garbage version of a memory, I’m not sure or really matters whether the representation is the original garbage or something that makes you feel less regret over not having something better.

In my experience, the worse the photograph the better my memory of it. Probably because my mind is already used to filling in the blanks in the garbage version, so it’s constantly refreshing the memory in my mind to keep it vivid. YMMV obviously. I’m also not much of a shutterbug and prefer to commit moments to memory than try to fight with my phone to snap a photo I’ll probably never look at.

I used to use Element for Android but it would always screw up the encryption keys in group chats, so I went to SchildiChat and it’s been fantastic.

Apparently my body is on a 26 hour day because it’s not in the mood at all during the current 24 hours.

This appears to be part of the “Parents Decide Act”

Sure would be nice if parents would decide to parent their own kids instead of making it everyone else’s problem.

“How to Adult 101” and 102. I’m not qualified to teach 103+ though.

Tact

Ah. Okay. I use a client that handles YT embeds so that’s why then. However, when I’m on a VPN, sometimes it puts me through an endless captcha loop.
