tychosmoose@piefed.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It is linguistically impossible to behave anyone but yourselfEnglish4·16 days agoPer Etymonlone: In early modern English it also could be transitive, “to govern, manage, conduct.”
Comport seems similar in both meaning and reflexivity.

openSUSE Tumbleweed is the rolling release, where you may have dependency decisions to make during regular updates. Updates must be done in the terminal.
The more beginner friendly version is openSUSE Leap. That has a longer release cycle, and you use the Discover interface (or yeast, or zypper in the terminal) to update.
Either is pretty friendly. Both have recent KDE.

Per this story, the steak and egg breakfast as a team before launch started as a NASA tradition in 1961.

There is help. You just need to want it.

tychosmoose@piefed.socialto science@lemmy.world•Even Neanderthals had distinct preferences when it came to making dinner, study suggestsEnglish2·25 days agoSeriously. Nana’s gonna nana.
tychosmoose@piefed.socialto science@lemmy.world•Even Neanderthals had distinct preferences when it came to making dinner, study suggestsEnglish3·25 days agoI also wonder how closely they can be dated. +/- 100 years is a long time and I would expect that’s a smaller interval than provided by their dating methods.
Still, Neanderthal dinner parties are nice to imagine.
tychosmoose@piefed.socialto science@lemmy.world•Even Neanderthals had distinct preferences when it came to making dinner, study suggestsEnglish2·25 days agoYes! The method in that video is exactly what I meant by #6.
tychosmoose@piefed.socialto science@lemmy.world•Even Neanderthals had distinct preferences when it came to making dinner, study suggestsEnglish5·25 days agoI’ve seen a few ways for chopped onion. Chopped meaning that we want reasonably small consistent size pieces.
-
Root on, halved through the N & S poles, one half laid flat, vertical N/S cuts, leaving connection to root intact, cuts parallel to table almost to root, latitude cuts moving to the root end. Then a final cleanup chop of the large pieces from the root end.
-
Same as 1 but no parallel to table cuts. More cleanup chop at the end.
-
Same as 1 but radial longitudinal cuts instead of vertical.
-
Same as 2 but radial longitudinal cuts instead of vertical.
-
Same as 1 but without halving the onion first. Done in the hand.
-
Same as 4 but without halving the onion first. Done in the hand.
-
Same as 4 but root off before halving.
-
Same as 7 but latitude cuts before radial.
-
Same as 8 but latitude slices laid flat before radial cuts.
-
Same as 7 but root off after halving.
-
Same as 8 but root off after halving.
-
Nana method, higgledy piggledy paring knife action in the hand.
Classical western method is 1. Both 2 and 4 are very common in restaurant settings in my experience. I like method 8. Any other way feels either too fiddly or too sloppy. But I have seen each of these in action.

tychosmoose@piefed.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?English2·1 month agoThat makes sense, yeah. It’s probably the closest comparison.
tychosmoose@piefed.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?English25·1 month agoHere’s a fun comparison: Tennessee vs Mecklenburg Western-Pomerania
They have very similar population density (70/km² vs 65/km²). Tennessee is roughly 4x the area and population.
There are only 2 inter-city train stops in Tennessee, in Memphis and a small town to it’s north, both on the 1x/day service between Chicago and New Orleans. The largest city (and its state capitol) Nashville has no rail service.
The entire state of Tennessee has only 10 inter-city bus stops. Ten! Serving 7M people. The 4th largest city in the state is Chattanooga (181k), and it has no inter-city bus and no rail.
tychosmoose@piefed.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?English2·1 month agoThe worst part, from a transportation perspective, is that our low density rural areas in the US are often isolated homesteads. Fully scattered single family farms and ranches, miles from the next family. We don’t have as much village centric rural areas as in Europe. So it makes delivering services (transportation, education, health care) to our rural population much harder.
Being on-call at any hour is something to consider. With a large enough organization it can reduce the frequency, but it never goes away.
Also, maintenance is scheduled for critical systems at low demand times. It’s another reason to be prepared to work nights.
