Is there an rss feed for the current events page?

If temps are going to be below 30F regularly, you'll need an auxiliary source. My parents got one last year, if they don't switch off it'll run constantly to keep temps at ~55F and drive their electric bill through the roof. It works well for them during the day in the winter most of the time and during the fall and spring.

Also since this works on cards that are already old, it lets you eek out a few more years out of a card you already own rather than being a shitty excuse to overcharge for a weak card.

I got a set off ebay, Jesus christ they're loud. I ended up returning them cause I could hear the grinding through my whole house

If you're interested in using flakes, this repo was helpful when learning how to get my first system configurations set up in an organized way https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-starter-configs

Yes

Tried kagi due to all the yapping here on lemmy, 99% of the results are exactly the same as ddg, no matter what their "x% unique kagi results" says, which just strikes me as dishonest. If they're going to lie to me about things I can check, why would I trust them when they say they don't log or track?

There's definitely some kind of astroturf marketing campaign going on here, this guy's only interaction with the fediverse is posting a link to some softball piece review of an incredibly underwhelming service.

I think it's because it's the only one that comes close to working well

I don't know if I'd really call this an issue, workers at companies generally start unions because they're being pushed into untenable hours and subsistence living without an escape. When you can jump from a sinking ship and add 15-20% to your salary you're just in a very different situation. There are risks to getting serious about organizing a union, especially in tech where the vast majority shops aren't union. You could end up tied to whatever company you're at currently for the rest of your career, since I'd imagine many non union shops would blacklist you from hiring if they found out you attempted to organize at a previous job. It's also difficult to get enough people on board for unionization when almost everyone in your department likely has the option to leave for a similar pay bump. The benefits of unionization are much less tangible for tech workers, who generally lead pretty comfortable lives, than professions that are tipically unionized like tradespeople or factory workers.

Pretty sure it is, I ended up trying the free trial because of all the yapping. Don't bother. 99% of the results are the same as ddg.

The sms cost is for account creation and verification on new devices, being an sms client didn't cost anything aside from maintaining that portion of the app

This would be so nice in a mainstream language, I wonder if it would be possible with rust's macro system?

Indeed, I bought a different brand thinking it'd be the same because the recipe is public, boy was I wrong 🤮

I think most people hate it because it's meant to be more appealing to a casual audience, not a bad game, but not what Supreme Commander fans wanted.

Plus 99.9% of people will never think of doing that

It's a good option for people who don't want to maintain a pc or want their game installs and updates to be instantaneous. You can play anywhere you have decent wifi so it's kind of like having both a steam deck and a desktop pc, and probably cheaper than maintaining and upgrading both

This only really works if they start making games exclusive to gamespass

That would have changed within the last 6 months then, we had it then and as far as I know it was just a remote pc

It's much better than Pokémon imo, but if you don't like JRPGs at all you probably won't enjoy it.

I've been speculating that people raving about these things are just bad at their jobs for a bit, I've never been able to get anything useful out of an llm.
