  • What are what for? The downloaded videos?

    I just didn't want this cool piece of history to dissappear from the public eye because of corporate retards. probably won't ever watch more than 1% of them.

  • They still happily exist on YouTube- for now. So no point in re-hosting, they'll get squirreled away into the Giant Hard Drive of Doom.

    If something happens to the actual archive project in the near future, I'll likely section them up into 20gb pieces and post them out on a torrent someplace.

  • I can still see it having a place. Watching a movie you've wanted to see for a while in a place where you can't be interrupted by social media notifications, traffic noise, neighbors, deliveries, etc. Can be very nice. And if you have small kids sometimes a good movie is the only way to get them to slow down and be calm and focused for a couple hours. But its not really something I'd consider "camping" for me.

  • we all need something to point and laugh at

  • No, but there is no monetary gain to scrape and repost on Lemmy. Reddit makes money when they do that, which means they'll encourage it more.

  • I know it's a mess mate, but let's just go down to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for this all to blow over.

  • And mind you, the reason trolls were uploading that shit is because all of their alt-right propaganda calling trans people pedos was getting taken down and ridiculed by the community, which they got mad about. Funny how they were the ones in possession of CP...

  • Oh he has a vision of a "trickle down" economy, alright. We just haven't been allowed to see the tape yet.

  • It's beating the pants off of Nvidia's offerings in everything but RT (which is expected), beats Nvidia on price, and doesn't require sticky proprietary drivers on Linux. I think AMD has a huge winner on their hands this generation.

  • They did sort of use CO2/CO in the earlier days, in the form of poorly maintained van trucks that would drive around the camps with their exhaust piped directly into the back of the van. That was slow and inefficient though, as the truck had to run long enough to actively displace all the oxygen within the volume of the van.

    Zyklon B from its Wikipedia page was intended as a pesticide so there was already a large industrial supply lying around. It works on a cellular level and will cause widespread cell death within 2 minutes of inhalation at extremely low concentrations, making it ultimately much faster with less maintenance.

    I'm not a historical expert, but the deaths caused by Zyklon B are also described to be much, much more violent than simply passing out from oxygen deprivation- and I could posit that the Nazis, viewing jews et al. as not human, would have preferred such a death for them.

  • Correction to the first panel:

    "YOU need to reduce carbon emissions."
    fucks off to Cabo on a private plane for the 5th time this month

  • The corporate owners and management companies have always been the problem. Individual owner landlords of course have a risk of being picky, nosey and overbearing, but 99% of the time they just want to preserve the investment value of their property while ensuring it pays for itself instead of being a huge money pit. Corporations are in it to maximize profit extraction by doing the minimum legally required maintenance (if even that), and literally nothing else.

  • Honda Fucking Accord

  • I'm sure it's just autism, but I start taking machines apart in my head, or go through steps of a project I'm in the middle of. I can walk through step by step of how every part interacts, visualize how it moves and where the wear and contact points are, which tool I need for fastener X, Y and Z.... then go farther down, and think about how each part would itself be cast, machined, welded, and packaged for assembly. Somewhere in the rote repetition of it, I'll pass clean out.

  • he would have been a natural at lemmy shitpost... if we were allowed to have lemmy shitpost 😡

  • hmm. Could be a windows problem. Eliminating the HDMI connection, even if the cable is to an older HDR standard, the DP connection should easily support all forms of HDR since they are more cable agnostic than HDMI is. Windows 11 is a bit of a buggy shit...

    Have you tried backing your gaming monitor off of 165hz down to something like 60 and seeing if it allows HDR then? Could be hitting some unexpected cable limit and it's backing off from HDR.

  • ChromeOS is "sort of linux" but sandboxed and uses it's own user agent string.

    Android is the same way- Technically a Linux kernel. But sandboxed to death and uses a separate agent.

  • The mobility of water molecules inside solid plastic is very very slow.

    You need a minimum of 24 hours to see any improvement from drying. Realistically you may need 72+ to truly get water out from the center, and even then you will likely never get it quite as perfectly dry as it was when it was brand new.
