If I’m going to have my coffee cold, I brew it up and then put it in the fridge to chill

I don’t do that very often, however because any sweetener I add to it just congeals at the bottom

Sugar is the only sweetener I need

Farmers union iced coffee, made locally in state

Pretty much a cultural icon of the state

#

Nescafe was primarily a European and UK Commonwealth product for a very long time. Didn’t really have presence in the United States until relatively recently.

#

Also nestle can -redacted-

#

The k cups I ordered are 100% recycle & compost, which is awesome

#

It’s very frustrating to me as someone who is a sustainability advocate that there is such huge disparity in the coffee pod disposal options

#

Some of them have a plastic film top and a plastic mesh brew pouch inside the cup, and those are very difficult to take apart to recycle the actual “cup” structure itself

#

And I don’t use vacuum seal bags because those are not recyclable at all

#

Paper bag would be fine, but in the amount that I order at once, it would probably spoil before I got through all of it

#

These ones have a bioplastic brew pouch that basically disintegrates in a composter

Whats the simplest tempreature monitor

stray apex
polar fern
#

@near nymph I prefer to just use a trimmer to keep it to a very short stubble. Pandemic has meant the mask seal areas need to be flat smooth. So I use two foil trimmers depending on how long the hair has become, and how much time I have.

#

I also have a very good Braun travel foil trimmer - use rechargeable high voltage AA’s

#

Using a safety razor and such uses a lot of water and possibly shaving form or gel, so I just stick to the simple electric trimmers.

Seven full-sized expansion slots are available for powerful graphics cards measuring up to 14.3" long while still promoting airflow around the rest of your components. Two 120mm fans are pre-installed in the H5 Flow, one at the rear and the other on the bottom of the case.

but we both have no clue about hardware i just have my highend laptop and desktop and he has a laptop from like 2004 with an i5-520m chip which needs an upgrade as i teach him programming now
from my experience we need minimum 16gb ram a small gpu as well as something that can keep the pc cool even in the summer in egypt where air temp can go up to like 40 degree already

guys what do y'all think of Asus ROG Strix? is it a good laptop?

you should build a gaming desktop and buy a basic laptop on the used market instead

wispy marsh
#

I found out where you can get excel for free

ashen zodiac
#

yep. good desktop and basic laptop is the way

wispy marsh
ashen zodiac
#

that's not free excel lmao it's just a foss office suite

ashen zodiac
#

Apple has an excel alternative of it's own

#

so if you use a Mac you can use that

wispy marsh
#

Numbers is a Webapp for non-macs or iOS devices

ashen zodiac
#

true

wispy marsh
#

And... you need an Apple account.

ashen zodiac
#

you need a M$ account for excel i don't see why that matters

wispy marsh
#

There are people in here who thinks Apple is evil, Microsoft is another devil, Google is incompetent, and linux/foss is the best.

#

I think they're all equally great for their audience

ashen zodiac
#

those people are stupid. in terms of UI/UX FOSS software is years behind Apple

wispy marsh
#

I guarantee Apple is years behind Microsoft office suite

ashen zodiac
wispy marsh
ashen zodiac
#

so nothing

#

i can actually explain why i think Apple is ahead of FOSS. my mom has no issues using an iPad, she would go insane if she had to use a Linux system

#

UX on Apple software is just better than FOSS

#

there are some FOSS projects that have a competent UI team, VLC is one of them. but they are few and far between

wispy marsh
#

That I agree with

ashen zodiac
#

Libreoffice for example is an absolute mess

wispy marsh
#

I have no problems doing projects on my iPad or MS office

#

But I don't like Libre

ashen zodiac
#

it has a lot of features but the menu layouts are psychotic

wispy marsh
#

Gimp and Shotcut seems alright to me

ashen zodiac
#

the only way you can somewhat use it is on a Mac, since macOS has menu search so you can just search for an option in the menu without digging through it

ashen zodiac
wispy marsh
ashen zodiac
#

exactly

wispy marsh
#

Aaaaaaaa

ashen zodiac
#

until FOSS projects start making their software for users instead of developers, it will never reach mainstream adoption

#

it's what drives me mad about linux people. if you say to them hey why isn't there a gui for this, they just go "just do it in the terminal dumbass are you a noob"

wispy marsh
#

Oh my god no

ashen zodiac
#

they should instead think about what if a non-dev used this

wispy marsh
#

People go crazy without a DE

#

I hate the rhel desktop. Ubuntu's is marginally acceptable to me.

summer folio
ashen zodiac
#

and i'm not stupid i have about a decade of using linux as a secondary OS, i know most terminal commands from memory. but i'm not the average user

#

the average user instantly clicks off or freaks out when they see a commandline

#

hence Linux will never reach mainstream until they adapt to favor GUI

#

having commandline is fine, macOS has it and i use it a lot on Mac. but it shouldn't be the primary method of doing things

wispy marsh
#

That is where apple excels

#

... excel. Hah.

ashen zodiac
finite cloud
#

Back in the day you used to have to use the terminal to even do anything on your computer

ashen zodiac
#

no but fr. macOS is a full unix system under the hood. it's just made to be used with a GUI first, and commandline second

wispy marsh
#

I know what you mean. Sed is easier to script than NP++*.

#

But, sed is also a dev tool

ashen zodiac
#

and macOS has it

#

but the average user never sees it. and that's a good thing.

#

Terminal should be something a user specifically opens for a purpose, not something they should be confronted with like Linux

wispy marsh
#

I went ape when i first learned sed

brave valley
#

I think in most Linux distros you can do most basic stuff with GUI. It's just that those GUIs are pretty bad and at least that just makes me prefer do it on the command line.

ashen zodiac
#

look. MacOS went from 16% marketshare to 21% in less than a year

brave valley
#

Agree but should there be? I feel creating good UX is so hard that it is hard for FOSS community to achieve that. Also you need to gather telemetry which a lot of Linux people are against heavily

ashen zodiac
#

Microsoft makes plenty of blunders, but people buy Apple instead of going to linux

brave valley
#

Well M1 & M2 being amazing might also have something to do with it 🙂

ashen zodiac
wispy marsh

#

The people that file bug reports etc. are not the "average user" so that feedback heavily favors power users

?

wispy marsh
#

It's a joke

#

People constantly making up new UI and thrashing on others

brave valley
#

I don't think many FOSS developers even care that much to have the average user use their software. It's by developers for developers and honestly I think that is mostly fine also. It's not like the devs should be forced to donate their freetime to make it for everyone

wispy marsh
#

How can apple have the most intuitive UI and device setup process?

Not free.

It would be interesting to have a commercial Linux distro for consumers. But it's a huge project and the average person is not very willing to pay for software

I may start using Linux again if I get amd hardware and they fix the issue where it will randomly kill itself and you have to reinstall your OS. This his happened to me multiple times and it’s what caused me to never use it again

@finite cloud it's not impressive though. some very talented devs have made a patcher that you can use to do this. all gui, you don't even need to touch commandline for any of it (usually, the cheese grater did need some commandline)

Is it useable using Ventura on the Mac Pro?

Hey, Ashley, I got an idea for you. Rufus W11 Mac Pro!

uuuh, you have to be patient with it. you can definetily tell it's a 15 year old machine running effectively Core 2 duo's just with more cores.

Try removing it, and adding it to quick access instead

I've used android my entire life, not once owning an IPhone or any apple product for that matter however recent bugs might convince me to switch. Like for example, the discord app occasionally bugs out in the middle of chats and becomes unusable, another example would be that I constantly get duplicate messages from the sms app and my messages often don't get received by other people even though they show as sent and received on the sms app. This isn't even all the bugs that I experience daily. I just don't get it anymore, I feel that android used to be so much more polished.
