Netflix is starting to phase out its cheapest ad-free plan
  • Me too.

    I’m sure there was stuff that I’d enjoy, but finding it was near impossible.

    At the end of the occasional thing I’d watch to the end, an irrelevant ad for something else jumps up. Kin annoying.

  • Help transcribing/figuring out a solo please.
  • This app/services is useful for working out parts of songs. You upload an audio file, leave it to process for a minute and you get a dashboard with separate tracks for each instrument. From there you can playback with, say, all instruments’ volume down, except guitar to home in on the solo. It’s much easier to hear what’s going on. You can slow down and export sections to new audio files. When I’ve done this, I’ve replayed short chunks in QuickTime on repeating loops. https://moises.ai

  • Responsible guidance is a choice
  • This all probably sounds nuts, but here are my oil systems:

    I wash out and recycle glass jars, but peanut butter jars are difficult to clean and will end up getting fat into the water system. So I keep the peanut butter jars for oil.

    I also keep a bendy, steel decorating pallet in the kitchen for scraping out fat from the grill tray and rack. You’re left with some fat that you can wipe off with kitchen paper, which you can also use to wipe the pallet knife. Then washing up liquid and a splash of boiling water from the kettle.

    There can be quite a lot of oil in leftover food, like sauces, too. I use a silicone spatula to scoop it off before washing.

  • xkcd #2943: Unsolved Chemistry Problems
  • They told me at school that ‘p’ meant ‘negative log’. So ‘pH’ means ‘the negative log of the concentration of Hydrogen ions in moles/litre’.

    pH 1 is 1 x 10-1 (strong acid)

    pH 7 is 1 x 10-7 (neutral)

    pH 14 is 1 x 10-14 (alkaline)

    (Chemistry was a long time ago, though)

  • As temperatures climb, is the future of French wine in England?
  • I can’t remember the make but I went to wedding at a vineyard in Surrey…their wine tasted pretty good to me. Also good British wine around the Welsh marches (3 Choirs?).

    My Spanish friends don’t believe British wine exists.

  • A nice infographic for newcomers
  • I used to keep chickens, too. They had free range of my garden so used to spread their crap all over the place—it never got too concentrated. But I can imagine that it would smell otherwise.

    I’d read that pee scares foxes off. Not sure how good the evidence is, but it seems plausible. I used to tip some pee near their coop. After a while I stopped and they got attacked. Just an anecdote, but I thought I should share it!

  • A nice infographic for newcomers
  • Long-time compost pee-er, here. I thought pee contains microbes that facilitate composting (in addition to the basic salts).

    I’ve got two compost bins and I’ve always meant to pee on one and pour an equal volume of water on the other to check it’s true.
