As a single guy, I just cook the oats in the bowl that I intend to serve them in and, since it's basically water just water in the base of the instant pot, there's not much cleaning required. The oats cook without manual intervention during the cooking process.
It takes a bit of time, but in theory you could set up your instant pot on a delay timer and wake up to freshly-cooked steel-cut oats.
> A working-poor friend also used to buy steel-cut oats, to eat breakfast for pennies.
Weirdly where I live steel-cut oats are the pricey ones even thought they're processed less than, e.g., rolled oats. That said they do need to cook longer than rolled, so wondering if energy cost might make those a bit more expensive.
As someone frequently at 150ms+ latency for a lot of websites (and semi-frequently 300ms+ for non-geo-distributed websites), in practice with the latency QUIC is easily the best for throughput, HTTP/1.1 with a decent number of parallel connections is a not-that-distant second, and in a remote third is HTTP/2 due to head-of-line-blocking issues if/when a packet goes missing.
I've been hoping to Spotify to go out of business since they went and took Rogan's podcast and a few others as Spotify-exclusive. Not always a Rogan fan, but he's occasionally had some interesting guests. However the Spotify experience was so bad I abandoned podcasts that required me to use their client.
(Suppose I should think of dialing back my Spotify hate a little now that apparently in the renewal they're no longer keeping Rogan as Spotify-exclusive)

I've definitely had Netflix region-lock most of my content when I made the mistake of briefly switching on wifi to find my connecting gate at some airport. Apparently even though the content was available at my starting point and at my destination that didn't apply to the connecting country.
Have yet to hit that with Youtube, and I really hate Spotify so avoid using it.

A few days back Prime lost both of the two series that I was in the middle of watching at the start of February. Super-annoying!
There's always stuff happening in the world of flight - It's occasionally interesting to peruse the Aviation Herald (https://avherald.com/) to see just what's happened recently.
"the impact on earnings for the birth mother is [almost identical in both family types](https://www.ifau.se/globalassets/pdf/se/2016/wp2016-08-does-...). Meanwhile, the nonbirth mothers in the lesbian couples show a similar earnings pattern to fathers in the heterosexual ones"
When a post includes a paragraph like this I'm not sure that I'd say the person is actually running their own single-person Mastodon server:
> I use masto.host for Mastodon hosting, and it’s been great so far. I have nothing interesting to say about what it’s like to operate a Mastodon instance because I know literally nothing about it. Masto.host handles all of the server administration and Mastodon updates, and I never think about it at all.
In addition to that it seems that they've opted for the top-end package, which seems like it'd be overkill with just a single-user onboard.
That said, seems like there are some pretty significant Mastodon limits even if you let someone else do the heavy-lifting.
When you think of a pumpkin you'll likely envision a particular type of squash, but if you buy canned pumpkin or eat a randomly purchased "pumpkin" pie you're unlikely to be eating the type of squash that you envision.
> If they'd just give me a feature that gives continuity of play between devices I'd pay the full monthly price without blinking.
What specifically are you looking for? e.g. was watching a video on my computer, powered that off, opened youtube on my phone and the video I was watching was most recent thing in youtube history there with my position in the video tracked. Similarly I can use my phone or laptop to control Youtube on my TV. Seems like what you're looking for is already mostly here.
(I've been a Youtube Premium subscriber for the last year or so thus far).
