Hey Fedi!
Is it possible to get only the 10 tooth micro spline sprocket for a Shimano Deore XT CS-M8100-12 cassette?
If it's made by some other company, that's good too.
(The cassette is bloody expensive and only the small sprockets wear out.)

Follow-up questions:
Aside from “work on the website” what did that person do? What else was their responsibility?
If you had to write a description for that title today in 2025, what responsibilities would you include?
Once upon a time, working on a website granted you the title of "Webmaster". As the Web evolved, more specialized roles took over and the title fell out of favor.
Searching for it now, I don't find many job listings for "Webmaster". So now I'm curious: how far removed from that job title are we?
When was the last time you heard of someone with “webmaster” as their actual job title?
Dear hivemind, it looks like I have lent somebody my soldering iron that I need to replace the battery on an old Sansa Clip for my kids.
What would you recommend, considering that:
1- I used my old one at most once in 5 years
2- My dexterity is in the low zeroes
3- I need it this once and then probably once again in 5 years
?
#chemistry folk of the fediverse, does anyone have tips for cleaning well plates efficiently? We do a lot of microchemistry in this unit and cleaning these well plates is killing me.

BTW, if anyone (#AskFedi) has good recommendations of a directory, listing, website, independent organization, or similar that has a _list_ of creators and news organizations that don't run advertisements but rely on donations (and preferably release under a #CreativeCommons license), I would love to (A) start following it, and (B) link it in the blog post above 
Is there a Firefox add-on that could help me learn proper use of commas?
I think commas are used differently in German and English but I'm always unsure. A little add-on making suggestions would be great.
As a KDE Plasma user, I was always jealous of some of the nicer GNOME apps.
Recently I realised that I don't need to be. I can run GNOME apps on KDE Plasma just fine! Sure, they look a little different, but they work just as they would on GNOME.
Do you mix apps from different desktops?

Vážení čeští fotografky a fotografové, kteří fotí na film a vyvolávají sami, - mám na vás dotaz.
Jak se pak tady v Čechách nakládá z odpadem, hlavně těch ředěných roztoků - sbírá se vsechno a chce na sběrný dvůr? Nebo neco může do kanalizace? Nejprve zajímá černobílý proces, takže vývojka, ustalovač a smáčedlo.
Bezpečnostní listy jsem trochu četl, ale ty nejsou moc jednoznačné - dokážou psát že směs je bezpečná ale musí být odevzdána jako nebezpeční chemický odpad, anebo prostě odkázat na "příslušnou národní legislativu".

@bunny Welcome to the neighbourhood! In case they're of use, here's some tips that helped me when I moved into the Fediverse:
Post an #Introduction
Put interests & hashtags in your bio
Follow LOTS of people. There's no algorithm here (thank Odin for that) so you create your own community.
Follow people who follow people and hashtags you like
Follow hashtags
Follow @FediTips
And if you have questions, #AskFedi or ask anyone. It's a nice community, people are happy to help 
Hey fedi, I need some advice regarding managing identities online:
I am now studying CS, and as much as I dislike it, GitHub and LinkedIn "profesional" profiles have become a requerimient.
My conflict arises when that need clashes with not wanting to have PII on my profiles. But not wanting to segregate my contributions on two different accounts.
What do you folks do?
Update: Thanks to @furicle for this suggestion. I think it's about perfect:

Dear sound/audio folks and engineers,
[Update: just for clarity: I'm looking for a command line utility that will help me decide which of 70 audio recordings need amplification/compression/normalization. Something that can print out media stats like average loudness, or something like that]
I have a directory with 3.5GiB of audio files (chiefly opus & m4a) which are spoken word recordings.
Some of them are quite low, and some of them are quite dynamic such that it's a whisper at times and nearly a shout at other times.
I've processed a lot of them with #audacity's compressor filter or #ffmpeg (ffmpeg -i audio.m4a -filter:a "speechnorm=e=50:r=0.0001:l=1" audio-normalized.m4a), but there are some unprocessed files in the collection, which are a pain to individually find and fix.
Is there a way from the #CommandLine to detect the loudness and/or dynamic range of audio files so that I can automatically flag them for processing with ffmpeg?
Thanks!!
If I click to open a folder in KDE Dolphin, Dolphin usually hangs for so long that I usually end up killing it. It doesn't seem to matter which folder.
However, when I turn off my internet connection, everything works fine. How can I find the cause of this? I think I've ruled out KDE Connect (for someone who had a similar problem, that was the cause), and Syncthing.
Can you conciously make your eardrumbs vibrate and produce an earthquake-like sound that only you can hear? 
Y'all writing software with a write-compile-run development loop, how do you do it better than:
Ctrl-S to save
Alt-Tab to terminal
make↵
./bin/something↵
(play with program)
(close program)
Alt-Tab back to editor
Is there some kind of vim, emacs, helix, etc. workflow that reduces the number of steps for all that? What am I looking for?
Anyone know a good calendar app that could replace google calender on Android? I don't need anything fancy and I am open for one-time payments, but I _HATE_ ads. Feel free to boost. #askfedi

Good morning fedi friends! Got another question for ya!
My 18yo cousin is considering a change of major - from HR to #Biology.
Does anyone have a degree in #bio or similar? If so, three questions!
1) What career did you ultimately end up in?
2) Did you need to continue past undergrad in order to get to that career?
3) If you could redo college, would you get a bio degree again? If not, what would you recommend for someone with a passion for science but a dislike of chemistry?
Thanks y'all! If she was leaning toward the "T" in STEM I could be more help but "S" is more outside my prevue
