Not to mention the ease of carry. No heavy backpacks or unwieldy suitcases.

Does a bag of holding count?

To be fair, the droplet wasn't exactly a bumper car. It could ram and destroy several ships before your human reaction time could tell which way it went. It went so fast it could pass through a ship leaving a hole behind and white hot metal and it could turn on a dime at full speed.

Told you people would love it :D I'm glad she lives!

I don't agree with the commenters in this thread.

An ad is an ad.

I don't care if they're for the youtuber's own stuff. I don't care what their cut is from youtube premium, they can take that up with youtube. I don't want to see any ads of any kind if I'm paying for the content. Especially considering how much premium costs.

Disclaimer; I don't use youtube premium, I use youtube in browsers that allow adblockers, and on android I use firefox with ublock.

Yeah... Part of why I wouldn't try one is that I'm worried it would work. I already have limited bandwidth for human interaction; taking some of that away is probably a bad idea.

I don't know where you live but I'm always jealous when some americans say they found something at a thrift store or recycling center or yard sale. Those are very rare in my corner of europe.

It's never a good feeling, my condolences. Are you gonna go for something newer or just get another oldie?

The iso shouldn't have caused any issue, I've used it before for the exact same thing. It's hard to say what the issue is at this point. It sounds like a loose connection or something bridging 2 connections. Could've scrubbed too hard, or maybe something got bent during assembly or disassembly. Sorry, man...

Ayyy, result! I appreciate you getting back to me. It's not perfect, but it sounds like at least the keyboard's close to normal now. Time to pick a new spot to put your drink as well.

It's a seriously disturbing movie. What made it worse for me is that I didn't even know it was horror. I'm big on sci fi, and that's what I thought it was. I was lulled in by the story but it gave nightmares...

You don't have to imagine it at all. All you have to do is go on youtube and learn about Replika.

To summarize, someone tried to create a chatbot to replace their best friend who had died. Later, this evolved into the chatbot app called Replika, which was marketed as a way to help with loneliness, except the bot would engage in dating-like conversations if prompted. The company leaned into it for a little bit, then took away that behavior, which caused some distress with the userbase, who complained that they had "killed their girlfriend". I'm not sure where the product stands now.

I don't know if I'd feel weirded out, but I'd definitely feel worried if it were a friend who fell for a chatbot.

Reading all these comments sure does make me wish I liked it...

Good luck, lemme know if it worked!

I would fully take apart the keyboard. The plastic can be cleaned in the sink with dish soap and lukewarm water. The pcb gets the iso.

Try some isopropyl alcohol, maybe a cotton swab or a soft toothbrush.

Event Horizon. Nuh uh. Mmmm, nope. Nah.

Definitely star trek

I'm not the OP but tbh I think I understand where they're coming from. At the very least, it seems to me that there are way more actively idealistic pushy people on lemmy. See for example the commie instances, the anarchist, antiwork, union-promoting, anti-car, anti-capitalism communities, etc etc. For anyone who thinks I'm for or against any of these, please consider I did not voice any opinion on them one way or the other, just acknowledged their existence. It's difficult to get a feel for the general sentiment or develop an opinion from the comments. I opened recently a news post about the Gaza conflict and there were people there who said that people on this website just "hate the jews", and then there were people who said that the instance was "run by jews". When a post has 10 comments, 2 stand out.

The reason it seems like there are more extremist people here is that these posts get to the 'front page'. Browse 'All' on lemmy.world and you'll see quite highly opinionated posts. For someone who is just trying to pass the time, share some hobby stuff, look at memes, that kind of thing, it can be a little off putting.

The easy way we fixed it when we still played dnd is that casters know what the spells are, even if it's not in their spell list. You know if the enemy is casting firebolt or finger of death. Consider that if it's possible to counterspell counterspell, which only has somatic casting components, then probably there is sufficient time to tell what each spell is. This fixes the bad feel of counterspelling because the spell is known by having everyone do it. Everyone knows what the spells are so you can choose to be strategic and get the most out of your counterspell.

If you want to justify it, you can imagine that all fire spells have some fire movement or incantation, add to that something related to size or expansion, plus a bead of fire forming, that's a spicy fireball.
