This is assuming you are expected by your council to clean it “thoroughly enough”.

After you eat/drink the contents, a very quick rinse is all that’s needed. Little stains aren’t going to be bad for recycling.

If you’ve left it for a while and are worried, a simple but surefire way to clean out any significant gunk would be these steps:

• Make sure you have a strainer on your sink drain if your plumbing system is fragile.
• Fill every can or jar with water to near the top
• Wait 15 minutes
• pour out a can into the sink
• fill the can with a bit of water and shake the last bits out
• pour and lightly rinse the rest of the cans in the same way
• bin the gunk caught by the strainer.

I make mistakes because my replies are often my stream-of-consciousness, and the primary review is mainly to make sure I even want to reply to the comment at all. I don’t use autocorrect so my fingers slip frequently.

If you look through my comment history, a good chunk are edited because I catch more grammatical errors in my comment after I post. I suppose most others don’t bother.

The question they are answering is the first one they read.

what’s Ron Vara’s take on this?

From Canada: I get legit calls from private numbers. Usually it is based on something I have inquired previously about, by phone, text message, webform or email.

Random non-scam cold calls have been largely: surveys (a federal election is coming), requests to donate places from places I’ve donated to before, telecom companies I have ditched begging me to come back. But anything that begins with an automated sounding message I just hang up immediately.

Make sure you check out places like !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, on there and other communities on that site there be many a sailor like you. What’s better is you can participate without having to make a new account!

Senators (in the US) are elected representatives of their state. Sen. Booker, through his 25 hour speech, brought his constituents’ message to the forefront, criticized the Senate, Democrats’ and his own failures to act. He got millions of people to look at Senate business as if he was a professional streamer which is usually boring stuff. The speech is Booker’s answer to “what can I do at this moment to make a difference?”, which hopefully will get others to ask the same of themselves.

It’s impossible to measure the true impact of the speech afterward, but it’s intended to inspire people to take action, resist the Trump monarchy, and cause “good trouble” where they can. Who knows whether this has had any influence on the Wisconsin Supreme Court which was a humiliation to Musk, or if it had any influence on the 4 Republican Senators joining Democrats to pass a resolution nullifying the false emergency against Canada?

Are you going to retire in the next four years? Or take all your cash out into gold, quit your job, and go into hiding for the next four years?

If neither apply to you, you can leave your money in your 401k. Selling index funds right now is ultimately up to you, but in the long term time in the market tends to beat timing the market.

What I’ve read in books is: Building up savings itself is more important than whether the returns are +10% or -10%, early in your career, since it will fluctuate but tends to average up.

And remember if your national index funds, bonds or whatever market and government backed investments lose half its value, you have bigger problems on your hand of the state of your country at that point which having cash on hand may or may not help anyway.

If you want to set up a “movies and stuff” server, if you have them as digital files (rather than on disks) then you can try setting up JellyFin as your media server on any Linux distribution of choice.

Try playing around with it on a machine and disk that you won’t mind screwing up and losing everything on. Not because you’re bad at it, it’s how you learn, everyone makes mistakes.

The soldiers are proudly liberating Russian citizens… from their possessions.

Note that the problem states that the outer shape is a quarter circle, information not provided in OP’s question.

Knowing it is a quarter circle is important because it allows us to validate that the bottom-right angle is 90 degrees.

Catching real criminals is hard. Pretending innocent people are criminals is easy.

JBL sounds like your audio gear, depends on what. Bluetooth, USB audio ot 3.5mm jack connections generally work fine without issue. (Installing PulseAudio Volume Control will help you with finer grained volume control). Some DACs that require custom Windows drivers might not work.

Gaming stuff, Steam will have you covered, Lutris, Heroic, or itch.io for non-Steam stuff. The one unintuitive thing you have to do once you log in is to go to Steam Settings and check the “Use Steam Play for All Titles”. Just like that, 75% of your library that only have a Windows version will suddenly be playable and you’ll hardly notice a difference: just Download then click Play, that’s it (maybe a bit slower launch time).

I would recommend Firefox or Librewolf over Chrome as you have done already, but you should know that Chrome and Chromium do work on Linux FYI.

Hey… You want to make a bit of money…? You should do what I did, get into Farming…

Well it’s partly my bias too, because when I joined Lemmy about 3 years ago, lemmy.world didn’t exist yet and there were around a couple dozen new posts on All of Lemmy per day at the time.

I’m just really grateful for how much we’ve grown as a site, even if we’re still hardly anywhere close to the scale of modern corporate social media. But imo it doesn’t have to be, I like this.

Lemmy.world is not federating with beehaw.org

Lemmy is small enough, that without even seeing a karma total, some users have an unofficial “rapport”, where I’ve seen them around enough to recognize whether they are the type to go against the grain, a perpetual troll, or a usually reasonable person with an unusually spicy take.

For games, make sure you are subscribed to:

• !pcgaming@lemmy.ca
• !games@lemmy.world
• !games@sh.itjust.works
• !gaming@beehaw.org

All are healthy and active, and I’m sure there are more. I suggest cross-posting stuff from a niche community you contribute to, to one of these, to bring traction to the smaller community.

Edit: A big challenge would be if you wanted to avoid connecting to sites that run off of or have content served by AmazonWebServices. To do that for example, you’d have to click these archive links for Gizmodo instead of the direct links I did above.
