Jokes on you, they’re hiring for “World’s sexiest Lemmy user”

And while you’re at it, put handles on pudding cups so I can steer and hold my snack. I need my right hand for the spoon and scrolling Youtube,

I thought the updated standard was adjusted for daylight savings time, making it 2100 and 0300.

So there you are, an orc in mordor, on guard duty while sauron makes the rest of the army. It’s pretty great being on guard duty, nobody bothers you and you’ve just caught a rabbit that you’re now roasting on a small fire.

In the horizon a weird dude with a beard and a grey cape appears, he has several smaller humanoids with him … and a trebuchet.

The trebuchet is launched and a small dude is flung above you. The projectile/dude is manically trying to open the box that he’s apparently wearing as a hat?!?

You turn the rabbit, and when you look up again the guy has opened the box… Where did he go? You follow his path, and suddenly, next to the entrance to some random cave, you notice what could be the result of a small dude, with a metal box for a hat, hitting the side of the mountain. The sound hits your ears 2 seconds later. It’s like both a thud, a clang, and a squish all at once.

Even at this distance you can see something in the mess. Something shiny that you for some reason just know isn’t part of the box. You set off for the impact site.

What do you do now? If you want to investigate goto page 56 and if you want to alert the chain of command go to page 182.

Er det sådan en hobby har, det der med at stille spørgsmål med svaret indlejret? /s

Og nu uden “/s” hvis man bor samme sted som dem der bestemmer, eller man kender dem, så bliver der taget hensyn.

Nebula as well

Only because Arch Linux was too much of a hassle

I didn’t notice the USB port on the right, I was so focused on the shitty alignments. Like how can you fuck up only some of the 'S’s? I get that the ports are a result of the outline of the parts soldered to the board. And getting the HDMI vertically centered, or having the single USB port not turned 180°, would require both effort and a bit pricier BOM … But! The engraving? It’s the one thing that’s not relying on external factors.

Yes

I teach various certification exams, from what I’ve seen so far, you shouldn’t need to worry. Not if the exams are administered properly that is.

Hah, hun har lavet en Ritt

That’s no ballroom

But researching and shopping is an essential part of the dopamining

How I learned about it (am European so not part of my history) https://youtube.com/watch?v=o7jlFZhprU4

Found Lars Ulrich’s account. Dumme svin!

Don’t bother with Lenny Kravitz either. What a pretentious and whiny little bitch. Yes, we know it’s raining, but it’s also like 25°C and the rain is merely a light drizzle, so stfu about it. Besides part of the stage is dry, we paid for your name to come not your attitude, and we’ve been standing in the rain for hours, listening to far more talented musicians than you, so just play your two hits and piss off

Don’t forget to ban renting servers, vps and cloud services by individuals.

I think Microsoft and Adobe might lobby against the latter… But if they could expand the ban to AI, I’d be in favor of banning all the other stuff as well. I mean, what good is banning and blocking smut, when you can just ask an LLM to generate whatever your perverted 13yo heart desires?

That’s the reason I don’t drive a VW ID3. I wanted one, I really really wanted one. But during my test drive, I got a 10s timeout from the display, for apparently tapping too fast while trying to adjust the AC, WTF? And don’t get me started on the stupid mood lighting.

Too bad, it was in my price range, rear wheel drive, 236hp and a decent range. And there’s soo many of them on the roads in my country that spare parts wouldn’t be an issue.

Luckily it looks like some car manufactures have decided to ditch the ginormous look-at-me-I’m-just-like-a-tesla touch-screens. Kia, hyundai and VW at least according to https://www.slashgear.com/1995254/major-automakers-removing-touch-screen-dashboards/

Different appliance, same experience.

First off, the “smart” part is just another thing that can break.

Secondly, why is it cheaper than the older/dumb device? Don’t try to tell me it’s because the manufacturer had to develop new electronics, with pricier components. Isn’t it far more plausible, that it’s because my personal data is part of the price, without my knowledge?

Thirdly, what happens when the manufacturer gets liquidated? and the new owner decides that I need a subscription to use the device effectively either bricking it or raping me. Like we saw with Futurehome https://newsletter.openhomefoundation.org/you-dont-own-it-if-they-can-break-it/

Or what about when the manufacturer decides that they don’t like you and decides to snuff your account? Like amazon did when a driver https://www.foxbusiness.com/technology/amazon-customer-claims-company-locked-him-out-smart-home-devices-over-bogus-racism-allegations sure, if you’re abusive towards staff, then by all means act on it. But lockjng people out of their smart home, without giving them a chance to respond to the accusations first?

I swear I took my ADHD meds this morning, I don’t know why I get so riled up by this. But please understand, that I have had to take a conscious decision to stop ranting on.
