I still think it’s funny that the best way to run Linux on the desktop is via installing it through the Windows App Store

It’s hard to say…there’s this thing where a ton of people hate Jews but love Israel

It’s because articles about a 7% improvement in battery capacity aren’t as exciting, but those have been happening every year and the results compound over time. Eg check out this graph:

I can go on amazon right now and buy a 1kWh battery for close to $100 which is crazy cheap compared to even a couple years ago

It’s translated. He links to the original if you want to try translating it yourself to confirm.

Are the 3 I’ve tried for iOS, all have varying levels of control and quality, all worked at least somewhat with my Bambu X1C.

It’s also possible to control with HomeAssistant, but I would not recommend that unless you’re already using it, it’s quite overkill and complex to use just for 1 task.

When you use the official discord client, it only sends to your device whatever chat channel you have open at the time, and when you click on a different channel, it just downloads the last 20 messages, and downloads more when you scroll etc. If you bridge a discord server to a matrix server, it sends all of the contents of all of the channels in real time across. If the server had 50 channels, bridging it to matrix would be the equivalent of you having 50 official clients open, one to each channel. Hence the additional load on discord’s side to send you a lot more data than they usually would.

(Disclaimer: this is all conjecture based on a general understanding of how the systems work, I could be getting some details wrong)

It obviously does something according to the linked study. And it’s been used as an anesthetic before as well for infants. But it’s not commonly known that it gets you high, because it’s so rare/expensive. Don’t take my word for it, studies have been done on it, eg: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11879212/ But the scientific studies generally don’t talk about how it’s actually recreational, but see how they compare it to nitrous which is a known recreational substance. There are a few recreational reports here of varying quality: https://erowid.org/experiences/subs/exp_Xenon.shtml

And I know I’m just some rando on the internet but I have tried it myself and it is true, and it’s a fun fact I like to bring up whenever xenon is mentioned because most people are unaware.

Fun fact: Xenon gas gets you super high. It’s like nitrous they give you at the dentist, but stronger. Nobody knows why. It’s not commonly known/used because it costs like 100x of nitrous and is more complicated to get

I don’t watch YouTube videos with those stupid clickbait thumbnails out of principle, if it was a serious video worth watching they wouldn’t resort to that.

Just FYI of the bank bailouts in the US, the banks paid back the bailout plus interest back to the government. Meaning the govt actually made a profit off the bailout. There’s a lot of things wrong with both banks and the govt, but generally this is not one of them. https://www.propublica.org/article/the-bailout-was-11-years-ago-were-still-tracking-every-penny

Looks like the source is available to me if you click the GitHub link?

I’ve had a withings scale for like 5 or 6 years, use trendweight.com for a graph, I haven’t had any problems with it besides replacing the batteries every year or so

Also this only applies in private browsing mode, which people usually aren’t in

I hate that Lemmy is being infiltrated by AI ad spam now too :’(

This is such an obvious ad, nobody is falling for it

My so called blue state of California just voted against minimum wage increase, against rent control, against banning slavery, and for increasing the war on drugs. At least this time we narrowly voted to approve gay marriage (unlike last time where we banned it)

“It never happened to me personally so it must not be real” — this is the mindset that conservatives follow that leads to so much cruelty in the world

How often are you people screwing things up so badly that your servers aren’t reachable over the network and require keyboard/monitor access? This is basically only ever once for me for the initial OS install, and even then that can be automated away if I had to do it more than once every couple years

If anything I would expect vpn exit points to be located in higher density areas where presumably internet connectivity is cheaper, and higher density areas tend to be more liberal

Georgia the county or Georgia the country?
