The way it is packaged does not give much of a hint I think. The boxes are also not original and I did not find a description in them.

May have to look tomorrow (during my afternoon shift) if I have the time. From my memory, packaging were plastic bags with one type of part only (star or sticks) and sorted by colour. The photo I showed was either some kind of sample or what was taken out by colleages to have look (before I arrived).

I wouldn't take the source all that serious. Most dutch homes are unsuitable for direct combustion of wood.
A few boxes of stuff like in the photo came in at the thrift store I volunteer at, but none of us are certain on what it is. Searching the branding on it (Siventi) did not yield useful results. The pieces fit but come loose easily no matter which of the holes are used. The "chopsticks" are somewhat capabele of beding apart OR together and seem made of the same hard plastic as the star. Do any of you have ideas?

And not to forget multiple formats in case of devices not supporting hardware acceleration for some of the ones being around on the web. I mean, e.g. VP9 is not gonna run well but e.g. h264 would (please note this is not the most realistic example).

Biofuels are taking valuable croplands that could be user for food production. And BEVs could run on e.g. nucleair fission until we figured stuff out more. Try that with combustion engines.

The article says Google Translate. Brits and Usonians forgot to make sure that their clients are able to RTFM in another language than English. Like Ukrainian.

I guess they’ll be powered with electricity generated from gas (sourced from…?).
Gotta start somewhere.
Will citizens get subsidized high voltage lines to their homes or streetfront parking for fast charging?
Europeans do not travel that far most of the time, unless on e.g. vacation. So fast charging is only really needed on e.g. major highways.
Can the grid handle so many EVs?
No, that why it needs overhauling in places. That is however a thing to worry about or national and local gov., not the EU.
Never let perfect be the enemy of good.

Writing your representative(s) about e.g. downtown restrictions of vehicular use (within reason); heavier tax on SUVs than on regular passenger cars; or if they are hybrids/BEVs, make them exempt from things like tax incentives if they happen to be SUVs and/or beyond a reasonable mass limit.

Modern ones have tech in them that makes them automatically shut off once the water gets boiling, so they never get above 100C. Whatever plastic would be used for the device, has a melting temperature above that or else it would never get CE/TüV/KEMA approved.

I never tried tea from microwaved water, but according to rumours it makes the tea taste "off". Microwave ovens are also taking up more space, so unless you have got one already for different reasons than boiling water it would make more sense to use an electric kettle or just the stove if it is a modern (induction) one anyway.

On lemmy.ca there is a new community of which the mod thinks it is okay to basically run it as such: https://lemmy.ml/c/elon@lemmy.ca To sub to it, you might have to go to it via the "communities" menu of your instance.
Peter1986c 2 years ago • 100%
Go to Communities --> search "elon" --> pick the sub out of the results --> click subscribe. With federated subscriptions, by my knowledge there is no other way with Lemmy.

In case the cell is already empty, you might want to put in a fresh one, not touching the top and bottom surfaces directly, but holding it on the edges. Pushing it in place can be done with the use of some non-conductive material to push on the top side. If you can get into the UEFI (the term BIOS is outdated :) ) after all this, we will see what to do next.

I did in early March this year. Only a few weeks before the NL government decided to abolish all countermeasures that were still in effect. P.S.: I indeed have had three shots of Pfizer's vax (including my booster). My experience was that Omicron is survivable, but far from fun.

Perhaps, but I would rather see (heh) the "/u/" thing used instead of "/c/", unless it is about e.g. a famous person and not a community made by said person. This way there is better distinction between e.g. /c/TomScott and /u/TomScott.*
*not that I expect him here though, given how much he dislikes Reddit. Anyway, it was just an example.
Edit: fixed a typo that made the comment show commas instead of periods in one abbreviation.

I joined Lemmy before federation worked, which is why I joined the "flagship" instance. In addition, other instances are often more localised, theme-specific or very political (Lemmygrad, Wolfballs). And some instances are poorly guarded outposts via which the troll incursions are coming in. Mind you, the admins there are probably good people but it does do little good to the name of those instances (and they risk defederation). Maybe if Lemmy as a whole grows people might successfully spread, but for now most would stick to the bigger instances with the most topics and the best moderation.
Edit: I interpreted the question as specific to Lemmy, even though the topic is in /c/fediverse.

To be honest though, this does not be Ford company's fault if the article speaks truly about how local government works there. Governance seems a bit too decentralised to remain (cost) effective. That new plant seems one of the area's "lesser" problems in the bigger scheme of things.

Same here. I am still seeding this video though, hoping that helps indirectly.
Why is there a "porn" suffix? I understand we of the Lemmy community are in a "Reddit emulation"-phase right now, but this is silly (imo). Why not something like "Abandoned Place Photography"?
What is the difference between this community and the one at [/c/gentoo](https://lemmy.ml/c/gentoo)? If both are about the Linux distribution, would it not be better for one of them to be removed (if not somehow merging them)?
