Nornally first the capacitor and then the motor. The capacitor is there to absorb the power surge when the motor starts up.

They should be held accountable in a court of law.

And why do you think the US keeps playing this role in Europe? What possible motive could they have?

Paper Girls is pretty good too.

Definitely the former. The difference is not worth the price hike for me. I guess it’s like with really high performance cars. I appreciate that a Ferrari f40 is in a league of its own and truly extraordinary, I just can’t be bothered to spend that much money on it.

I guess it’s the same with many things. The difference between low quality and high quality is really noticeable and usually comes with a substantial cost. But the difference in cost between high (even exceptional) quality and top-tier truly one-of-a-kind is usually very high, and not worth it for me.

I can’t even remember, (very) expensive food is wasted on me. I enjoy a quality meal, but the top tier stuff just doesn’t make any exceptional or special impression with me. It’s just good food.

Left because I was doing three jobs as one person. They couldn’t hire a replacement with that job description (surprised Pikachu face). My new job wasn’t as exciting as I thought it would be, so I got hired back in a properly defined job and that’s been working out fine.

Mark Felton did a 6 episode series on YT on how the alleged burnt bodies of Hitler and Eva Braun found by the soviets, are actually plants.

There are devices that will cool a drink (can of soda or a beer) to ‘ice cold’ ( I assume something like 5°) in 60 seconds. I guess this sort of answers your question? The full answer is probably not that it is technically impossible, but that the practical use is largely limited to drinks.

Typora also supports it, it’s a great low-overhead tool overall.

De-escalate emotional tension. Don’t get personal. Don’t make sweeping statements or promises in the heat of the moment.

Belgium. Debit card most of the time. Covid was a turning point, as it popularized QR codes and this in turn led to more payments by payment apps. I rarely ever carry cash anymore.

A couple of things:

• commute time counts as work time
• no open plan landscape office
• no ‘clean desk’ policy but the ability to personalise your workplace
• dishwasher and general kitchen stuff not being a ‘shared responsibility’ but someone’s job.
• office being in a nice neighborhood with fun things to do after work or during lunch

My employer spent the past ~10 years de-personalising our offices, and now they wonder why people don’t like to hang out in their sterile ‘clean’ building.

I run my own Mastodon instance, but for Lemmy it seemed more logical to join an existing instance that aligned with my interests. I wouldn’t be adverse to abandoning my self-hosted Mastodon for a shared instance, but I would prefer a small instance run by and for people I know, rather than one of the huge ones.
