Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I bought an electric kettle
5·10 days agoHi - try the Cuisinart gooseneck kettle! Seriously, better than everything else suggested. Cheaper thank the Fellow.
Warning - the beeps are annoying. It beeps once when you turn it on once when it starts to heat up, then three beeps when it has boiled to your specified temperature. Then a final beep to turn off the base. If you have people sleeping it’s pretty annoying in a small area. I have seen YouTube videos about disabling the sound but I have not done so myself. $130 and I think it’s worth it.
It will do temperatures from 140° f to 205° f in 5° increments. And then boiling temperature 212° f of course

Mechanical Keyboards@lemmy.ml•Searching for the right pre-built board
1·16 days agoAlways happy to clarify and add more info, thank you.
I threw in ‘standard ergonomic’ because it was a search tool often - I just meant I want a normal keyboard design, rectangular, single space bar, etc. The standard ergonomic preference didn’t need to be included
The USB passthrough seems big with gaming keyboards, letting me plug my trackball in conveniently. Just a preference thing. Considering a USB hub or something instead but I’ve seen a fair number of them still available.
The audio passthrough sure is rarer and allows easier setup or removal of the headset. It’s nice to have the audio jack at desk level instead of near the ground.
Budget wise I’m happy to pay up to roughly 200 USD, but hopefully less since I’m not trying to find anything too fancy overall.
I often end up regretting a lack of a numpad as they come in handy in some sim games, or as alternate keybinds in whatever I’m playing.

politics @lemmy.world•White House’s East Wing partially demolished as work begins on Trump’s $250m ballroom
6·2 months agoThat didn’t compromise the White House building, from your own link? I can see saying it compromised the White House in the sense of the executive branch.
It hung in the ambassador’s Moscow residential study at Spaso House for seven years, until it was exposed in 1952 during the tenure of Ambassador George F. Kennan.[7]

I hate that my screen blinds me and people nearby when I use biometrics. I understand the security problems with bio too, I guess I ought to just delete the option.
