  • Because you flex and replug the interface often.

    The thing you use to plug your phone, tablet, drives and other things with is very often the failure point unless you break screens or get water in them.

    Normally you simply have a HDD drive with a SATA interface in there, so if the USB connector fails, you can still easily recover your data.

    With these things, you're lucky if they even offer the possibility of repairing or recovering the drive.

  • The more they push to train AI on our shitpostings on social networks, the more I'm certain we're fucking doomed if their AI ever reaches consciousness.

  • He feels like falling to his death from a fifth floor window while having tea in his countryside garden.

  • Thing is, looking at some games, Horizon and Elden Ring being a prime examples, we can have both great games with great graphics.

    You don't really want better games with worse graphics, you want better games that don't use great graphics as an excuse to bad gameplay.

  • It's all about "state rights" until it's other states with different politics.

  • Those astronaunts that are supposed to go up with a Boeing launch must be having severe anxiety by now.

  • They get cheap oil, cheap gas, cheap minerals, cheap everything out of Russia.

    They don't care Putin wins or loses, they do care about getting all that cheap loot.

  • I see this womans face all over right now, all commenting on her book and shit she said.

    Ya'll know that posting this shit and responding to it beyond calling out the blatant attention whoring through deliberately inflammatory and controversial statements is just giving them what they want, right?

  • The threat needs to be there and real, otherwise Putin and Russia will never stop.

    THAT is the insanity.

    We've tried the economic approach, we've tried talking, we've tried not doing more than sending weapons to Ukraine.

    It clearly doesn't work and Putin will just keep repeating what he has been doing until there's actual repercussions to what he's doing.

  • That's why, although I'm in no way a fan of Macron, I love that he has put the idea out of at the very least starting to put boots on the ground.

    At the end of that war, we can not permit it to be in the form of Ukraine losing even an inch of landmass. Because then in 5-10 years, Putin will just do the same thing again, maybe not in Ukraine, but elsewhere.

    The only way to stop Putins madness is by making every thing he does cost him dearly.

  • So they seem to be the good kind of insular. Live and Let Live.

  • My work often takes me to the Antwerp diamond quarter (especially the vault buildings) and the sentiment I see there is that your general Jewish person facepalms every time they hear Israel is in the news again and they aren't happy this makes life more difficult for them by simple association. Most of these people just want to live their lives and have no association, fealty or favor for the country of Israel, beyond the area it resides in hosting holy sites.

    Dunno about the traditionally dressed Hasidic Jews in Antwerp though, I've been in and around the Diamond Quarter for 25 years now and I don't think I've ever even got as much as a hello or acknowledgement of existence from any of them walking down the street. They seem to be a rather insular bunch.

  • You have people like this saying actual antisemitic shit over and over and over again and they are elected to office.

    And then it's people that want the country of Israel, to at least pretend to try to not kill scores of civilians and they get called antisemitic.

  • All of Europe is an Ally.

    This perk is pretty much reserved for Israel and Israel only.

  • I tend to have videos playing on a secondary screen all day long, only to pause them when I get a phonecall or need to talk to someone on Discord or real life.

    This is just one more perfectly valid reason to install adblockers.

  • This is major league bullshit tho.

    On linux, where the config file for a specific program is, can vary annoyingly greatly depending on what distro you're using and sometimes the same config file exists in several places and somehow certain parts of the configuration parameters get taken from several of those files, so if you think you've found what the actual config file should be and remove the duplicates, suddenly the program uses defaults or doesn't even work at all.

  • You should replace that thing with something more modern. I had a 5000p chipset system someone gave me with dual quad cores and an assload of ram.

    The shitty box idled over 400W. I went as far as getting low power ram and the newest CPU it would support that also supported frequency and power scaling and it still used over 400W on idle.

    This while I had a Xeon E5 box that was only a few years younger that uses more in the neighborhood of 50W on idle and utterly decimates the 5000 series box in CPU performance.

    You're probably better of fetching some old Ryzen 1800x system of ebay for higher performance and leagues lower power consumption.

    As for the raid, don't use it. Hardware raid has always been shit and in modern Linux and Windows is as good as completely depricated.

  • You need both.

    Some people won't ever hear anything about the issues until they see some weird kid do these stunts or see that someone their age can have a word in the discussion too.

    Others are more likely to pay attention to scientists, the type that read more intellectual literature.

    And then there's those who won't ever change their mind because they've been spoonfed corporate propaganda and thanks to religion and just generally being dumbasses, are perfectly primed to be managed in this way.

  • This is just a diagnosis of the problem.

    That thing is engineered so they can bypass or repurpose ever little bit.

    Which is probably what they'll do now, do a software update that will make the system evade the bad memory segment.

    Voyager has 3 computers and only 1 is affected.
