The stopper in the lid of my carafe is stuck. Several grown adults have failed to get it out. We’ve tried twisting it, poking it, hitting it and heating it. We’ve tried reasoning with it, pleading with it and shouting at it. It’s as if there’s a black hole inside that is sucking it sealed. It is clearly an impossible task. Which means someone in the Fediverse probably knows how to do it.

Ok guys.. I bought 4 boxes of Jiffy cornbread muffin mix..but.. I got no muffin pans.

I got bread loaf pans, sheet pans, asst pots and pans.. so the question is.. how would you cook the Jiffy. I'm thinking 2 boxes in a loaf pan but not sure.

Shower me with your knowledge oh fedifam.

I'm interesting in learning about the techniques and mechanics of different styles of animation, especially pre-compute graphics.

Does anyone know of a good source for learning about that? I'm not particularly interested in a graduate-level film studies textbook, but anything short of that would be awesome.

Years and Years came out in 2019 and I never saw it. After all the shit that happened since then, does the show hold up or has it aged terribly?

The Movie DatabaseYears and YearsAs Britain is rocked by unstable political, economic and technological advances, members of the Lyons family converge on one crucial night in 2019. Over the next 15 years, the twists and turns of their everyday lives are explored as we find out if this ordinary family could change the world.

EDIT: The answer is NASA! Thank you all so much for the quick answers :neocat_heart: leaving the toot up in case other people also don’t know.

Weird request but fedi seems like the best place to ask...

I'm in search of a high res #photo of the #moon to use as the large background image of this collage template I'm using to make second dad's father's day present! In an ideal world it would be glowing down on some water or trees, etc. but any pretty moon would do.

My camera roll came up dry, so wondering if anyone has a moon photo they'd be willing to share for the project?

Thanks friends! :blobfoxheartcute:

if you have an outdoor air quality monitor that you like, what kind do you have and what are its pros and cons?

I'm looking into them again and would love some Fedi input.

I am most interested in monitoring particulate matter, anything else is a bonus. I need something that runs on batteries and/or is rechargeable. What do you recommend? 1/n

Hey #woodworking thing-knowers, I recently bought a table saw, and on the rip fence is this attachment, the purpose of which I can't work out. It's a bar of what seems to be spring steel, with a pivot at one end, clamped to the back of the fence in the middle. Can anyone enlighten me to what it's for?
The saw is an Italian-made SCM SI-12, probably thirty to forty years old.

Swedish/Svenska connections, I need some help! I ordered a book that shipped via PostNord. My tracking number, which was "letter" not "international", says it was delivered last night (not very likely), but the post office has no record. My Swedish is basic and not suited to business, so I have to translate the website.

NEVER MIND! UPDATE BELOW!

Boost if appropriate!

Fediverse: suggest me the best (introductive) political philosophy book that I can binge on instead of doomscrolling.

Bonus point if it includes indigenous philosophies and bonus bonus points if it includes women philosophers or scientists!

I'm already familiar with reading secondary texts on philosophy, as I've read a fair amount of will durant and have been 'trying' to read A.C Grayling.

I'm loosely familiar with anarchism and Marxism purely from being affiliated with communists and anarchists online, but haven't read both the philosophies thoroughly.

Thank you fedi, stay kind and swag
