Dang, you're still posting? I haven't seen these for months.
Probably because I rarely scroll below 100 upvotes on Top...

What's the origin of that background? I've seen it on a couple of posts lately.

I saw list item 1 more as "I want my phone to last for 5+ years, so I will want to replace my battery eventually", rather than "I wanna wreck my battery fast, so it better be replaceable". Being wasteful with your battery like that goes against the spirit of Fairphone, IMO.

2.5 years isn't that long to evaluate battery degradation IMO, and as you said, you mostly don't even push your battery that hard. And the article even seems to imply that faster charging does impact battery life, it's just that manufacturers consider 100w a sweet-spot between charging speed and battery degradation.

Surely, that impacts the battery longevity, right? Personally, I disable all fast-charging features and charge my phone overnight.

P.S. Sorry for calling you Shirley.

Why do you need 120 watts charging for a phone? Most laptops don't even support 100w.

It's a running joke in the cartoon that people/animals keep calling Pumba a pig, he gets mad and insists he's "Mr. Pig".

Did you just call their mom a pig? It's Mr. Pig!

I know that avatar cause that user works on Analogue Pocket FPGA cores.

Where's their dad's friend — Pumba?

Electromagnets engage when you release the mouse.

I mean, they listen sometimes. But the point is, they, as any other company, were doing it to pretend that they are cool and progressive. As the result they got mostly negative reactions. So why bother with the effort if you're only gonna reduce your already dwindling player base. IIRC, they were very small symbolic events anyway.

I'm pretty sure this happened because sooo many players complained about the event the last times. I remember boycotts and stuff.

I'm not saying Jagex isn't bad, but this time it's on players.

I don't know what part of what I said prompted all those downvotes, but of course all the reasonable people understood, that the "AGI in 2 years" was a stock price pump.

I get the meme aspect of this. But just to be clear, it was never fair to judge LLMs for specifically this. The LLM doesn't even see the letters in the words, as every word is broken down into tokens, which are numbers. I suppose with a big enough corpus of data it might eventually extrapolate which words have which letter from texts describing these words, but normally it shouldn't be expected.

Ok, thanks! Good to know there's a backup plan. For now Arc still works fine, just no updates anymore.

Does any other browser let me open 2 windows with the same synced tabs? Also, permanent per-space tabs, please.

That's nice. But it already seemed pretty accurate to me.

It's just a joke about how there's so little video posting on Lemmy and that some clients don't support it.

Yeah, I have it on Vita, Switch and Steam Deck. Cause why not. Wonder if it's on 3DS...
