Could you give a brief overview (or detailed if you want, I’m curious!) of what you think makes a good process? More specifically, what makes a good process and what makes good documentation for said process?

I dunno, I didn’t put much thought into it, sorry ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Does yours have a particular meaning? Most of my handles/usernames are entirely arbitrary

Nah, but now I have a new artist to check out, thanks!

Can I subscribe to more badger facts?

Police have to detain someone to breathalyze them. Detainment simply means that the individual is legally required to stay there, that’s it. If you get pulled over, you’re implictly being detained.

The problem is that international travel simply doesn’t make sense for many Americans. The U.S. only has two international borders - Mexico and Canada. Any other international destination is going to be a flight across an ocean (South America isn’t, obviously, but the distances/costs are similar), which can be $400-$1200 per person. The cost/duration of flights and need to adjust to a dramatically different timezone means that it really only makes sense to travel internationally when you can go for at least a week at a time. However, Americans tend to have very limited paid time off - usually only 10-20 days or so per year - and that is often a combined pool for vacation, sick time, etc. This means that a single international trip can chew up over half of the PTO for the entire year. So even if you can afford to travel, you don’t have enough time off anyway. Most of the time it makes much more sense to travel domestically and just take Thu/Fri off for a long weekend.

(This is speaking from experience, if you couldn’t tell, lol)

Can someone explain to me why they might have gone with this strange pricing model instead of the very simple revenue sharing model that Epic uses?

idk why, but I dug around YouTube for an hour or so to try and find that alarm for you. I stumbled across one that’s so close to your description, though it’s from a BlackBerry, not a Samsung:

Is this the one?

The main problem with lithium ion battery fires is that the reaction is self-oxidizing, so you can’t put it out by just smothering it. You actually need to cool them down enough so that they don’t re-ignite. Plus, once they’re damaged, even if you do cool them down enough they’re much more likely to short and re-ignite themselves again anyway.

Consider the “fire triangle” - fire needs three things: fuel, oxygen, and heat. With, for example, gasoline fires you can take away either oxygen OR heat to extinguish them, but with lithium-ion battery fires you have to take away the heat to extinguish them.

“Based” is typically used to describe someone who says/does something without caring if they’ll be judged for it. Most commonly, it’s shorthand for “That’s a controversial opinion and you are bold for saying it, but I agree with you.” It turns the previous sentence into an adjective, which is a little weird but it makes sense eventually.

So if I had to choose a single word as a synonym, I would say “Bold”.

I’m probably going to end up back on Reddit to some extent, but I think Lemmy will stay in my rotation of stuff I open when I’m bored. Or until they inevitably kill old.reddit.com, then I’ll be outta there for good…
