“Damn leftists, they ruined the left”

Why we out here combining these memes when both individually are enough

I’ve found it hogs a bit of resources so I shut mine off until Plex crossed a line

Looks like that day came sooner than I expected

What run command did you use? Any resource constraints?

Big fan of Atrioc and this is one of his best videos. He has really insightful and thoughtful takes. But also does a great job of keeping things funny and interesting

I am just astounded that Tesla sells any cars at all at this point. I am convinced there’s a class of Americans that just don’t read any news at all and just see Teslas on the road and think they’re neat. They just feel like Biden didn’t lower prices so give Trump a try. They just coast through life and I’m unreasonably jealous

I was a big Arctis 7 stan two years ago. I had three pairs at one point

But then they started pushing Steelseries GG and the experience just deteriorated from there. The new Arctis models are just awful, it’s like they didn’t understand why people liked chat mix

I do a similar thing with 35. I have to say it like a character from Scrubs

For the most part, Crypto assets have no real value. They can be used as a currency, but that’s infrequent at this point, and really it’s now just a speculative asset.

In other words, Ethereum’s (and other Cryptos) value is based almost entirely upon how much people think someone else will pay in the future.

If they think the price will go up, then they will buy. If they think the price will go down, then they will sell.

Because of this, any shred of evidence that could predict the perceived value going up or down can cause a huge shift in the market. Most likely a news article was released, or someone Tweeted something, that made people think the price could change.

The idea of searching had me thinking that it would be nice to have a search-focused instance that didn’t defederate from any sites (besides the illegal stuff) and auto-subscribes to every new community so it has all the information possible. Then you could do “foo bar site:searchlemmy.com” and get an effect similar to reddit

Although that’s probably unnecessary. But would be kind of cool

I have a friend who is just so damn stubborn when it comes to mixing up their “comfortable” things if they aren’t the one to come up with the idea

Very frustrating

Any suggestions for an XMPP client?

In an ideal world I want something that has Discord’s “drop-in” chats where you don’t need to “start a call” anywhere, you just join in. My biggest gripe with Element’s voice chat

Yes, I’m afraid so. Some of the concepts will still apply but it’s most likely wiser to get a EU-specifc or country-specific book if you can find one

Black and Decker makes a series of books that are pretty good, I’ve been enjoying them so far. Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Wiring

I’ve also found various books from thrift shops to supplement as well as various resources from the internet

Commonly called a “refillery” in the US if that helps people search for their local options

That statement presumes knowledge of GFI that I did not have - load side means nothing to a layperson

I’m leaning the science behind home electricity. I want to install an outlet in my bathroom for a bidet but I realized I didn’t understand when and where I needed a GFI outlet. So I’m learning via a handful of books

Similarly, I want to add another outlet in the basement for my cats’ automatic litter box.

I also just replaced my Nest doorbell with a “dumb” doorbell but the chime won’t work. So I need to do some research on how the chimes work…

I haven’t seen it mentioned but I enjoy channels like Solo Solo Travel - slow-TV style videos about public transportation. What food can you get on a first class flight from Tokyo to Australia? All the videos have zero commentary unless you turn on the subtitles.

I enjoy them a lot because they’re very relaxing and make me feel very cozy.

My hot take? No, it’s not

You’ll never change a mind with cruelty. You are merely selfishly expressing your anger

Best case scenario, this person now feels bad about buying a Tesla, but is now stuck with the car. They will likely have to waste resources fixing it and it may happen again. Sure, you could assume they’re rich and can afford to fix it but that wastes literal resources extracted from our planet to fix or replace the car. And if someone buys the used version they’ll have the same problem and may not be quite as rich the next time someone vandalizes the car.

More likely scenario, you piss the owner off and they dig in deeper. That’s just how humans work

I can find alternatives with enough effort, but I love me some heavy peated Scotch. The smokier the flavor the better

Good to know, thank you for the link

What VC money has Matrix taken? Genuinely curious
