Here in Finland the standard seems to be 8-16, with 30 min lunch, for a total of 37,5h work per week

Are you trying to say that unwanted teen pregnancies are the answer to population decline?

Tiny nitpick, 23 qr-codes are needed as one can contain 2,953 bytes and c64 has 65,536 bytes of ram. 65536/2953=22.19

For me even kagi didn’t provide a recent doc, but at least there is no garbage-sites (which I have blocked)

Yeah, the secret is to debloat it all the way to 7. Going under that is not advisable expect under doctors supervision.

My partner sets two alarms, one an hour earlier when they take the adhd medicine and go back to sleep. It has sped up their bed -> outside time significantly.

Oh that makes so much sense. I was wondering why single-click would ever be default.

How about pixel?

The posts are from march 2023, and there are no ads yet :/

That would make sence, also the domain is really good (lasinvaihto.fi, translates to windscreenreplacement.fi). Maybe they are planning to sell the domain?

Recently I was looking for info (in finnish) how to prevent car windows from fogging. I found a really weird website all about car windows, but it kept confusing car and house windows. It instructed to clean car windows by “opening the window and cleaning between the panels”.

It was obviously ai-generated, but I couldn’t figure out why. They weren’t selling anything, there were no ads and no links to other websites or services.

Edit: I found the site again, I cannot spot anything nefarious, but proceed with caution: https://www.lasinvaihto.fi/

Well, here (in middle of finland) the sun set at 14:30, so there wasn’t all that much solar energy available.

Also heat pumps are always at least as efficient as straight electric heating.

Oh it hadn’t occured to me that not only salt causes osmosis. Thank you for the explanation!

Seems like I’m going to boil the potatoes whole in the future, thanks again :)

No problem! Make sure to test the universal summarizer also, it has been extremely useful for skimming scientific papers and documentations (you can also select “discuss further” to ask specific questions about the material).

I also felt that the price is too much, until I started to actually think how much I use and rely on search engines in my life, and suddenly the cost doesn’t seem all that high. Granted I’m fortunate enough to live in a high-income country.

Isn’t the osmosis minimized when the salt concentration of the water matches that of the potatoes, and thus it shouldn’t affect the saltiness of the end product? Assuming that the water is thrown away of course.

Give kagi a shot, it has worked great for me

Do you know whether salting the water heavily affects the water absorption rate of cut potatoes? It should reduce it on cell level, but I don’t know if that is the case with starch

I assume the problem with kagi is the price, which is hard to swallow as we have get used to free products?

If I cannot fall asleep in 30 minutes or so, I “give up” and go lay on sofa and watch something low intesity from youtube (restoration channels are great for this. This removes most pressure to fall asleep, which often is enough to make it possible to fall asleep quicklyish. And if not, at least watching videos is more interesting that lying in dark room.

Note that you should either wear blue-light blocking glasses (not those barely tinted “computer glasses”, but those that are meant for blocking lasers), or use some software solution, in order to not disturb melatonin production. It’s a good idea to start doing this at least an hour before going to bed in order to allow melatonin to build-up.

Source: partner suffers from severe sleeping problems, and they have researched falling asleep extensively.

I suggest going straight to https://kagi.com, or you can also use your current search engine to find it using query “kagi”.

But to be serious, it’s great. The search results themselves feel like how google used to feel years ago before the enshittification, and there are many useful features, like changing priority of different websites. I for example have removed all pinterest sites, reduced instagram and increased wikipedia weighting. They have a free 200 search trial, give it a go!
