My dogs use Earth Bath Oatmeal and Aloe and I like it

Stoicism is stupid. Absurdism is where it's at. Life has no inherent meaning. So you give it one your own damn self.

Yeah, I have curated my library to be focused on the history of science, with special focus on the sorts of books which include information necessary to bring society to the technological equivalent of the age of reason (with extra chemistry and medicine). At that point, it's mostly practical, and the practicality of the source speaks to the likely authenticity of other texts within the collection.

I'm waiting for boost to add piefed support (confirmed to be coming) then I'm going to switch

Pokémon go, obviously.

I've had good luck with the Microsoft cameras and ones that say they are "Skype certified" on the box.

"fall asleep"

I would make sure to have that in writing.

It's a different virtual drumkit, and I swapped some pieces here and there when I felt like one or the other sounded better for a specific song. The names were set by the creator of the drumkit, and I didn't really know how to credit them so I might have gone overboard with it lol

No, for rubbing up against.

Guild Wars 2 is AMAZING

I mostly work in social services, but during times of intentional or unintentional unemployment, I run a handyman service and fix a range of smaller consumer gadgets and household appliances. Not an exaggeration to say that over the last 6 months 50% of my income was derived from buy/sell/repair of vacuums. I am not lying when I say I have a small vacuum shrine, somewhat as a gag but also in respect for the fact that vacuums kept me fed. There's a few aspects to vacuums that play into your concerns. The heating issue arises from the use of standard AC brushed motors in the cheaper builds, vs DC brushless motors in the higher-end. Basically AC motors are mini-heaters that spin a bit, and DC motors spin a lot and generate a tiny bit of heat. There's a cool Tech Ingredients video where the presenter discovers this by tinkering with ceiling fans, learning how much air they move, power consumption, and so forth. Worth a watch even just for curiosity. The next issue is airflow. There is a complex chain of intake, impeller, dust bin, outflow, filters, etc. Impairments and poor design in any of these areas restricts airflow and makes the motor work harder. The impeller is the "fan" that moves air and it's attached to the motor. The faster you move air, the more resistance, the more resistance, the more the impeller converts movement into sound. It approaches a threshold where it can't efficiently push the air any harder, and the energy needs to go somewhere so it ripples through the air medium. And with fluid dynamics, the more resistance the more turbulence, which of course leads to more resistance.You can mentally plot an efficiency curve where moving almost no air would have incredibly high efficiency, but see it drop off sharply you approach the max, where you can dump as much energy as you want into that impeller, but it's maxed out and is now a noise-maker. A thought exercise would be to imagine a 1cm^3 motor that is expected to fill a Zeppelin in 30 minutes - we can intuit exactly why that's insane and could never happen. The compactification of devices is the next huge area. If the consumer wants incredible suction in a tiny device, it's going to be a grid-melting racket-box. Physics is not to be argued with.

Alright. I miss judged your goals here. My appologice

Oh yeah, so it does. My client was showing it as deleted until I refreshed.

In Spain we had Infovia in the 90s, a kind of Spanish internet. Not directly connected to internet.

I live in a city, on a fourth floor, tragically, and I wouldn't want my kitten to fall and / or get flattened by a car. Plus, I work most of the day, and cats do need attention, and space. It'd be cruel to leave the poor critter alone in a small flat all that time. And anyway the only¹ birds we've got around here are pigeons, which are almost certainly toxic and, at this point, mostly composed of microplastics, and seagulls², which ditto and would probably try to eat the cat. 1.— We used to have massive flocks of sparrows, too, and ducks in one of the rivers, but the sparrows are mostly gone due to climate change and insect collapse, and I'm fairly certain the seagulls ate the ducks (or at least enough ducklings for the flock to go extinct). 2.— We're 34km from the coast. I have no idea where the seagulls came from. Horrible screeching parasites. Probably came up the river, eating the ducks on their way. River used to be full of carps... probably are those, too..

Just a quick point, you aren't starving. Plenty of people are not getting their basic needs met. There are tonnes of people who are unhoused, lots of people, especially kids, experiencing food insecurity, and a huge number of women specifically are living in abusive situations because they do not have the means to live outside those situations. Starving is failing to meet one need, but there are plenty of other needs that lead to death if not met. People die from cold and heat purely because of cost. Those deaths are no less tragic because it was cold rather than a lack of calories.
