  • Oh no please anything but starting questions with Lemmings of Lemmy!

    So I went hiking by myself on an old abandoned logging road once and got a little bit up there, pretty far away from the main road. I hadn’t noticed anything like bear poo but you have to always be on guard. Well eventually I got to a point where an animal didn’t like me being up there and started huffing and snorting at me. I turned and left because whatever it was, it was not happy. I never saw the animal but given the location and the noises I’m pretty sure it was a moose, and you definitely don’t want to get into it with an angry moose.


  • The issue here is that your wife bought this thinking it’s an ac when it’s an evaporative cooler aka swamp cooler. They do work if you have low humidity. If you are in a humid area this definitely won’t work. Since the unit is small it won’t cool the entire room but she should feel nice and cool about 3 to 5 feet in front of it. She will need to make sure the wicking action is working to get the pads nice and wet, otherwise she will have to manually remove them to wet them.

    Edit: I wanted to add that I have had a similar small unit before which is why I know that she needs to be 3 to 5 feet in front of it to hit the little target cool zone.















  • I was curious about Beehaw after hearing about them defederating and looked to see what was over there and what their content looked like. They have a stickied post at the very top that goes over the numbers if you’re curious what they’re saying it costs to run that instance. I feel like numbers could be totally variable based on a number of factors but that might give you a good idea. A smaller instance might be less and a larger one with the best hardware might be more but they’re probably all playing in the same general ballpark.
