2016? But the comic said ten year old lapto… Fuck

Excuse me, this is the internet. Nuance isn’t allowed here

It’s good to stay informed but try not to let it impact your day to day mental health. Consider that we’ve been under threat of mass nuclear war for about 80+ years now and haven’t been in a full scale one yet.

There’s little that you’re able to actually influence so as ignorant as it may sound, try to avoid worrying about it. If it happens, it happens, you won’t feel better for having worried about it and there isn’t much you could plan for anyway.

Focus on the things and people that matter to you and take each day as it comes on the basis that nuclear war is not happening.

I wouldn’t really call this a “report” when there aren’t any metrics in the reasoning other than price.

Even in their own article, it mentions how support and updates vary by manufacturer so it’s kind of meaningless to compare iPhone to the whole Android ecosystem. You’d need to choose one or more manufacturer in order to make an apples to apples comparison.

You are completely right.

I do also get why the run these commands is a thing, because it’s usually faster and also is distro / desktop environment agnostic.

Why would someone want to write separate guides for Gnome, KDE, Cinnamon etc. when one or two commands will suffice? But on the flip side, my family and friends will see a scary looking command and immediately be put off.

I feel it’s getting a lot better since more apps are just in the browser or electron apps, there’s way way less to actually configure for most end users. The type of people put off by commands generally won’t go digging through the settings anyway.

I do wish there were a proper GUI for configuring GRUB though. Any that I’ve ever found seemed to fall out of date very quickly.

Whaat? This is the first I’m hearing. Snap bad because proprietary.

Are there any good standalone pkg formats?

Buying the successful studios to obtain their IP and then sacking all the employees to cut costs.

I feel like you’re agreeing with me but your comment is phrased like you’re disagreeing

You got down voted but no-one actually counters that argument.

Why should everyone be forced to get up earlier because some of the population want to? They can already do that!

And to people who say “mORe LiGhT iN tHe evEnINgS” - for most of us in Europe it’ll only buy you a few weeks at most and then it’ll be dark by the time you finish work/school anyway.

Star shield, as opposed to shield, fire shield, bubble shield, lightning shield.

You call them steamed jams despite the fact they are obviously grilled

In my client, it opens as a page in an embedded browser instead of just opening the community

Wow you’re right, didn’t realise that was explicit before.

Feels pretty selfish of them to do that on lemmy.world

There is the Nvidia X Server Settings app but it’s pretty barebones

It said they were helping cheat death for a few years, so not a euthanasia take

Pfft tables, the pro move is to add more & nbsp; until everything is aligned

You’re right about the frequency for sure, most things with an AC motor for example wouldn’t handle it.

But a quick search shows people have done this for things like kettles without issue.

I’m curious since you guys still use 240V for washer, dryer, cooker, EV charger, etc. Could you legally install a 240V socket (with a different plug type) and use an appliance from a 240V country?

I get it would probably be overkill for a kettle alone but I’m curious why it’s only common for some things. Is it regulated, like do devices need a special approval to be allowed to run 240V in US?

I thought Kazakhstan switched to Latin script

Like calling the numbering system base 10.

It would be base 10 regardless of the number of units
