That’s really awesome

Any specific brand recommendations? Asking for a friend of course.

Lol, fair enough.

Is Mastadon different?

But they don’t make them anymore :(

Thanks for the suggestion, I was looking at buying another soldering iron. I’m using a really obscure brand one that I got from my dad and that I have been using since I was around 8 (30 years ago).

I can only get replacement tips in South Africa so was looking for something with more support.

Honest question, how long is the fluid supposed to last? And I’m not talking about burning time. I have a zippo, I fill it, a few weeks later I go to use it and the flame lasts a few seconds as the fuel finishes.

Felt the same about Lemmy when I signed up.

Same could be said about 90% of things humans do.

While I agree, we don’t do enough, can you say your job directly impacts the environment for the positive? If not, then you, like me, like them, are part of the problem.

Plasma gasification can self sustain and generate power

It’s so fucking weird

I guess, but I dunno, that still seems dubious to me.

I never understood why people would want polluted air and water, blows my mind.

Cool, with the phone on silent (which I don’t do) I’d have missed that too, and would have been cancelled and rescheduled.

This adamant denial that phone calls are useful is weird.

Tell that to the delivery driver that called me because they were outside with my groceries.

Only if it’s right by you or isn’t in your bag or something. Hence audible alerts, they break through the physical barriers.

I don’t really get the whole not answering the phone thing. I hate phonecalls but I always answer my phone.

The amount of important calls I’d have missed if I buried my head in the sand like that is insane.

Sure if 90% of the calls were sales or scams I’d think differently, but there are ways to prevent that too.

I find it weird that everyone has their phone on silent all the time too. If mine was on silent I’d never look at it unless I’m bored.

Maybe it’s time to design a super slim case for mine that has a keyboard, only I worry it’ll be top heavy

I think I’m okay with that tbh. I miss my Blackberry Torch. Full touch screen on the front and a slide out keyboard

God I miss real keyboards like this.
