MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why don’t Americans radiate foods?3·13 days agoYes, though it does not affect the nutritive content or prevent subsequent cultures from taking root, so you can still inoculate irradiated foodstuffs with live ginger bug, yeast, scoby, mother, etc. or open air ferment.
Windows 11 ended support for vertical taskbars and the default setting is along the bottom with the tasks centered. You can change the “taskbar alignment” setting to “left” but that just aligns the tasks to the left side of the bar. There apparently was a registry hack that allowed you to move the taskbar, but that got patched out by the time my work updated my workstation
Hey Windows, set my taskbar to run vertically along the left side of my screen. 🖕
MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why don’t Americans radiate foods?29·13 days ago- We do! Or, at least we are allowed to. I’m mostly aware of it being done with meats.

The FDA requires that irradiated foods bear… the statement “Treated with radiation”…
- The word “radiation” is scary to the general public. It conjures thoughts of glowing rocks and nuclear fallout. It makes folk imagine that their food might be radioactive.
MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is it about residential solar energy that attracts so many scams and fly-by-night operators?0·14 days ago- It’s a new market. Well… new enough to not be well understood by the general public, or by the contractors getting into it.
- It’s techy. That that attracts a certain…entrepreneurial personality.
- The prospective customers are people who can already afford a home.
- it can be pitched as “it’ll pay for itself”

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The plural of Kleenex should be Kleenices.71·1 month agoFun fact! Pizza is already plural. The singular is a piz, which is where we get the English word “piece”, because pizza come pre-portioned. The word “peace” also comes from the same derivation, because it is impossible to go to war while enjoying a piz of pizza.

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could you grind up a loaf of bread back into a flour and make a new loaf of bread?12·1 month agoThere is something similar but not quite. Masa is made from nixtamalized corn, but the process to make fresh masa means pulverizing the moist kernels into a dough. Then, to store for later use, the dough can be dried and ground into a flour: masa harina (literally “dough flour”).

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired?4·2 months agoThe cold is also bad for batteries, so if you’ve been out in the winter for a while, it’ll help warm your phone up.
MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto Games@lemmy.world•Hollow Knight: Silksong updated Steam page with 2025 copyrights and cloud gaming info4·2 months agoHonestly, it would be hilarious if they did a goofy, “coming out tomorrow,” April Fools day announcement, and Nintendo snapped back the next day with “no, really, available now!”
MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you plan to cool down your apartment this summer?9·2 months agoWe open the windows when the temperature dips, especially at night. If the wind is low or dead, we will use a fan to push the hot air out of one window so cool air gets pulled in though the rest of them.
We have a portable AC in the main room and a window AC in the bedroom for when it gets too hot during the day, or doesn’t dip at night.
If you live in a dry climate, a swamp cooler could work.
