ShadowAether, to askelectronics in How to get rid of swollen laptop battery?

Did you check if your city will take them? Sometimes you need to go a specific dropoff site but usually they have instructions for household hazardous material

ShadowAether, to asklemmy in How fluent do you think one have to be to be considered "bilingual"?

Um the first part of 2 and the 2nd part of 2 are two very different things. I know lots of people who pass the language test to get into college but make a lot of grammatical errors. Also basically require spellcheck/chatgpt to write a basic email. Also even my roommate makes grammatical errors in conversation and she has to do her job in her second language. You seem bilingual to me, seems kind of silly you seem to think you need to spent a year in England or something to be considered bilingual.

ShadowAether, to asklemmy in Need Lemmy Usage Assistance

You need to join through your home instance (lemmy.ml) like going to lemmy.ml/c/foodporn@lemmy.world if someone from your instance has subscribed to the community or go to lemmy.ml and search for !foodporn (you might have to wait a bit)

ShadowAether, to asklemmy in How much "data" do you personally have?

I have about 3-4 TB (maybe 5 if some old drives still work)

ShadowAether, to asklemmy in How safe is it to eat raw eggs?

Other people are right, that there are ways to reduce the risk of contracting salmonella. However, I’d point out it’s highly unlikely you’d get salmonella from eating raw eggs once. If you wanted to eat them regularly then that’s a different story

ShadowAether, to asklemmy in e-reader or tablet for reading academic paper

I ended up using a vertical monitor + Zotero for note taking (allows you to highlight text and write comments). My ereader is small enough to be convenient but too small to read papers well. My tablet, I hate writing on screens and it’s also too small

ShadowAether, to asklemmy in What was your best and worst experience on Reddit?

Good: I got support from people when things in my DnD group got weird.

Bad: Once, I asked a technical question that I had asked people irl and researched a lot and not found what I was looking for. On reddit, I had people making assumptions and nitpicking the terminology while avoiding the actual question completely. It was a good example of the CS/math departments friction (which makes a whole lot more sense to me now). I did get a better answer on another site by just posting the equation and using zero jargon but I ended up abandoning that topic bc it was impractical.
