They blep out the pieces, and the energy is mostly harmless it seems. They love that spicy hay. Can confirm mine were fine with a 24v 0.5a current at the most (partner’s laptop cable while charging) but generally they have tiny hearts and can easily die from it, in theory
Apple users won’t know the difference - I know a lot of the time data and power transfer numbers don’t matter to the average user, but I feel it’s goddamn criminal to use USB C but artificially restrict (for their non Pro phones ofc) to 2.0 speeds, while charging the same for their products as other, far better equipped phones. I have similar beef with Samsung (not their data transfer, that’s good) and their incessant restrictions on any cable that’s not Samsung, offering like 60W of charging speed max. Meanwhile many other Androids are living it up with USB3.2, max 10Gbps, and >100W since 2024
I do my best. It is frustrating when an ‘independent’ storefront uses Amazon Logistics /FBA aha. And I can’t easily avoid Amazon’s primary source of income AWS, but I can reduce their e-commerce traffic at least. I love “Jeff Mart”
Whatever cables you want, buy Anker, go braided, and buy from their store and not Amazon. I don’t know what kind of monkeys are breaking them and such. The only thing that ever killed my cables in 4+ years of use was a rabbit
Bruh 65" is only good if you’re like 6m away - almost no homes are like that. <=42" is the only normal size for a normal home, and sacrificing no quality. I get preferences, but that size has nothing to do with practicality
Lol, such bs. When HDTVs were made ‘smart’, and then 3D, the only ones sold were 40"+ and £3,000+. Took about three years for that price to drop 90%. But this is garbage news, who still wants a television in this century? Pubs, community spaces and that’s about it. Monitors are significantly cheaper, with less bloat and software lock.
AI powered Sentries
But they call them squares
Shall we wait until these findings are proven with a sharp decline in the national average GCSE scores or can we do fuck all about the use of gen. AI… Literally, tools are fine. But replacing the one thing that makes us human, our expression, with machines is ridiculous and doesn’t work.
Bluesky that bad huh? I guess it really is just a fancy Twitter clone
Greatest con the government ever pulled was convincing the masses that state law = right. Way I see it, there are five primary laws and each region’s society and ruler values their hierarchy independently: State, Ethical/Natural, Religious, Corporate, Moral. Each can influence the other. Cutting off from the corporations a cloud-dependent device you paid money to possess is no doubt right, and ethically sound.
Indonesian milk brand with Wuthering Waves waifu promos, different characters for each flavour, released in 2024. I now want waifu food packaging here lol
Population seems to have increased and become more diverse. There’s always communities being created. It’s not recognised as a desirable platform for businesses or influencers yet so upvotes aren’t treated anywhere near as divine, but you still see some users with remnants of Reddit; massive psychological damage if they’re downvoted. I mean, makes sense, people generally use social media to feel validated about their opinions. When it comes to comparing with Reddit, Lemmy has no monetised awards or such, bots are mostly rudimentary and live on a couple communities, and there’s little toxicity, harassment etc. because the user has complete control over blocking anything and instance admins have complete control over banning and defederating. I think being able to close some doors is preferable to being wide open to all, and I don’t think it causes any “echo chambers”.
Overall, definite improvement over the years.
I use NextCloud for informal shares as its GUI is very similar Microsoft or Google’s -Drive and is easily adoptable. I also host a private pastebin instance for code or guides I think may be helpful, and Matrix for personal stuff. But I do like how Bitwarden/Vaultwarden’s share works – it feels more secure, like WeTransfer. It still has its applications. And Vaultwarden file share is free, size limit is adjustable in server config, and is not limited to what the Bitwarden clients say!
I set up a simple sync service with FolderSync (similar to Syncthing) on Android for my family, that preserves their mobile files on a server hosted SMB share. Haven’t even looked at storage encryption though. You can’t underestimate a simple yet effective solution, sometimes so simple it flies under the radar.
Or quit the fucking company come on
You need to be 18+ to buy broadband or mobile contracts in the first place 😫
They have powerful little toofs! Have you seen a skull or mockup? Took me seeing a model in the vet’s office to realise they have teeth way further in, loads of molars for the cromch
