Nice 😎

Ooh that’s an interesting stat! My most seeded movie is +1 (over 340 copies’ worth), and for shows It’s Always Sunny seasons take the top 3.

They have powerful little toofs! Have you seen a skull or mockup? Took me seeing a model in the vet’s office to realise they have teeth way further in, loads of molars for the cromch

They blep out the pieces, and the energy is mostly harmless it seems. They love that spicy hay. Can confirm mine were fine with a 24v 0.5a current at the most (partner’s laptop cable while charging) but generally they have tiny hearts and can easily die from it, in theory

Apple users won’t know the difference - I know a lot of the time data and power transfer numbers don’t matter to the average user, but I feel it’s goddamn criminal to use USB C but artificially restrict (for their non Pro phones ofc) to 2.0 speeds, while charging the same for their products as other, far better equipped phones. I have similar beef with Samsung (not their data transfer, that’s good) and their incessant restrictions on any cable that’s not Samsung, offering like 60W of charging speed max. Meanwhile many other Androids are living it up with USB3.2, max 10Gbps, and >100W since 2024

I do my best. It is frustrating when an ‘independent’ storefront uses Amazon Logistics /FBA aha. And I can’t easily avoid Amazon’s primary source of income AWS, but I can reduce their e-commerce traffic at least. I love “Jeff Mart”

Well this is awful. My policy is if it can’t agree to my terms, it is rejected. If a company is kicking up a fuss because I want to ensure my primary address isn’t forever compromised by spam, and doesn’t work with aliases or duckduckgo privacy relays, then said company doesn’t get my attention or business. Whatever the service you’re trying to obtain from them, I can almost guarantee there’s a more amicable alternative.

Whatever cables you want, buy Anker, go braided, and buy from their store and not Amazon. I don’t know what kind of monkeys are breaking them and such. The only thing that ever killed my cables in 4+ years of use was a rabbit

Bruh 65" is only good if you’re like 6m away - almost no homes are like that. <=42" is the only normal size for a normal home, and sacrificing no quality. I get preferences, but that size has nothing to do with practicality

Lol, such bs. When HDTVs were made ‘smart’, and then 3D, the only ones sold were 40"+ and £3,000+. Took about three years for that price to drop 90%. But this is garbage news, who still wants a television in this century? Pubs, community spaces and that’s about it. Monitors are significantly cheaper, with less bloat and software lock.

AI powered Sentries

But they call them squares

Shall we wait until these findings are proven with a sharp decline in the national average GCSE scores or can we do fuck all about the use of gen. AI… Literally, tools are fine. But replacing the one thing that makes us human, our expression, with machines is ridiculous and doesn’t work.

Bluesky that bad huh? I guess it really is just a fancy Twitter clone

You dropped the /s bud

Greatest con the government ever pulled was convincing the masses that state law = right. Way I see it, there are five primary laws and each region’s society and ruler values their hierarchy independently: State, Ethical/Natural, Religious, Corporate, Moral. Each can influence the other. Cutting off from the corporations a cloud-dependent device you paid money to possess is no doubt right, and ethically sound.

Indonesian milk brand with Wuthering Waves waifu promos, different characters for each flavour, released in 2024. I now want waifu food packaging here lol

He’s so borked. He reminds me of that retching cat mixed with Sonic

Edit: Sorry, I mean

I kept spending my money on food instead of upgrades. Here’s hoping DDR5 drops below 2x its Sept 2025 value in 2027, to coincide with Zen 6.

I tried to get RAM on eBay. 8GB & 16GB kits are not even being auctioned, and when they are sold their price tag is well over 3x their value, often 4x (~GB£170). 32GB sells for 3-4x its value (~£260-£320), almost as much as 64GB, which is often going for >2.5x (~£380-£440). If you’re desperate or are okay with massive financial waste, eBay is often the cheapest place for 64GB kits, but anything lower is relatively more expensive than just buying from distributors

Population seems to have increased and become more diverse. There’s always communities being created. It’s not recognised as a desirable platform for businesses or influencers yet so upvotes aren’t treated anywhere near as divine, but you still see some users with remnants of Reddit; massive psychological damage if they’re downvoted. I mean, makes sense, people generally use social media to feel validated about their opinions. When it comes to comparing with Reddit, Lemmy has no monetised awards or such, bots are mostly rudimentary and live on a couple communities, and there’s little toxicity, harassment etc. because the user has complete control over blocking anything and instance admins have complete control over banning and defederating. I think being able to close some doors is preferable to being wide open to all, and I don’t think it causes any “echo chambers”.

Overall, definite improvement over the years.
