I also had a pebble 2 hr, even had two because I bought another one off eBay (unopened box). 3d printed some buttons and used is for many years until the battery basically died, and the software started to show it’s age. Notifications became unreliable and such things, making it kinda pointless.
Still want nothing more than for it to work properly again. It’s easy enough to swap the battery, now with the ability to fix the software, there might be a point to it.
Have you actually thought about the first point in your second list, the door? Imagine the machine is running and actually full of water, and turning it off releases the door. Would that really make you happy?
That said, your other points in that category are fair, and honestly incredibly weird. I never had a washer do any of that, but I assume it’s to stop your clothes from wrinkling. Are you sure that can’t be turned off?
Not buying any game that has denuvo is one of the few hard rules I follow
Oh right, had just assumed it’s 720p because the width is 1280. So it isn’t 16:9, which is nice but slightly surprising!
The display of the steam deck is only 720p in the first place.
Not anymore, I hope from his description…
The politicians in charge of making the laws often lack the understanding needed to make privacy respecting laws. So it’s possible, it’s just not happening. They also listen to actual experts ready to little, but do listen to lobbyists.
This also doesn’t address the censorship side of the problems.
Just for a random example, literally the first thing I thought of: let’s say there’s a youth movement to affect climate change, or some other issue. They organize general protests, boycotts on “bad companies” and are starting to get somewhere (politically and affecting the bottom lines of these companies). This is coordinated using some online communication platform, think Reddit, lemmy or whatever (Facebook, whatever). Those that want it to “go away” can just include that in the list of sites that fall under thes “youth protection” laws.
Then there’s laws like that being extended it abused to do things that weren’t originally intended, which is also hard to safeguard against. Future legislation might extend the age range from 16 to 18, then to 21. With the list of blocked sites also growing conveniently alongside, and boom you got a nice censorship platform. Not saying that will happen, but making sure it can’t is what’s hard.
This sounds good on paper until you realize that what is considered “social media” is up to whoever happens to hold that position. Even ignoring the fact that it’s unenforceable anyway, unless you require a real ID, wish is just straight up worse for all sorts of reasons.
The idea is nice, but actually putting it into law without opening the door to censorship and other side effects is just not plausible.
Edit: also, Everytime you read about a poll like this, ask yourself: what was the question they asked? Did it provide any context? Did it require any understanding of the actual underlying issues and laws? Or was it some variation of “think of the children”?
If money is generally more on the tighter side, I honestly can’t understand getting a Mac anything. It’s many things, but never “frugal”. There are always options that do more for less, and maybe look a little less polished.
If you got that kind of money to spend on a laptop, sure. I really don’t.
Edit: to be clear, I know this is a stack of Mac’s in OPs picture, but the development that the entry models have basically no ports at all is a more recent development. Having to pick the pro just to be able to connect your stuff without dongles or hubs is a bit insane considering the price (and price difference).
Valve also gave away HL2 for free on steam, for anyone who didn’t have it. What exactly are you demanding above that? To be paid to get it or something?
I can only assume that is the main reason for this change. Pitty.
It’s great and all (it really is), but the target audience was just presented factorio 2.0 (and space age), so we’re busy for a few months.
This would be a good time to remember that horse armor that caused a shit storm for fishing like 5$ or something. Good times.
A wildly overpowered PSU will also use more power at low loads, as that’s outside the efficiency range. The ratings (like gold or platinum) also usually don’t apply, as loads like that are not part of the certification process.
This may be irrelevant to you of course, depending on your electricity prices.
This sounds like it only boots Linux ISOs? I kinda need the ability to boot all kinds of images, only some of them Linux based.
Just in case anyone thinks nextcloud is the solution, it isn’t. Can’t do two way sync at all on Android.
Many that were filmed in front of a live audience still had a laugh track. Either to correct them not laughing or not laughing enough at the clearly excellently written jokes, or laughing at things they weren’t supposed to was removed or dampened.
Ah you’re right. The limit is probably still not in effect, given the light conditions, but that’s just guess work.
Edit: like like the dashboard clock says 18:27, so it’s probably fine.
The fact that proton mail is in the first spot for mail providers made me immediately nope out. If that is listed without a massive asterisk, it’s just no list I’m willing to trust in any way, as it clearly can’t be trusted.
