Because it is for those who aren’t sysadmins or at least amateur Linux enthusiasts. The easiest tools quickly become very hard when something breaks and you got no one who could fix things for you you don’t know anything about.

Mmh, I see some mention of pepper spray. What most definitely carry are battons. Also can we talk about how god damn based Norway is, making Police a highly educated force with mandatory studies in ethics and sociology? That’s the way.

Under this model, success is achieved not through high numbers of arrests, but rather is preventative with an emphasis on defusing tensions and focussing on the frequently underlying causes of crime such as poverty, addiction, and mental illness.

Some countries really understood it. Only with these things combined (as well as proper pay, healthcare etc) a police can be trusted with the right and privilege to enforce law. Still without daily gun carrying.

What’s the definition of armed in this case? Firearms only, or does pepper spray also count?

It’s mostly an old notion that just won’t die. Especially in the years after its initial release (2004) it was just a disastrous experience sometimes with cracking noises, misconfigured sinks (or outright missing), crashes and - if I still remember one of my first Linux experiences with Ubuntu 8.04 right - the sudden decision to repeat the current audio buffer at maximum volume.

Ever since I came back to Linux on Desktop around 2017 I didn’t had any bigger issues with Pulse either. Ever since Pipewire became the default stuff just works, no issues whatsoever.

ABS is even less UV resistant. 😅

Not a fan of that thing, I need something with more texture or a different / interesting shape I can move around in my hand.

It’s flying around the L Ö M P

Everyone in Germany knew this Commission would be full of shit the moment Von Der Leyen was somehow cross-promoted to it (she’s from the famously corrupt conservative “Christian Democrats”, so it’s no wonder she was promoted after screwing things up). We dealt with her bullshit for years prior.

Just keep in mind PETG isn’t strictly UV resistant. A later reprint with ASA would be better.

Only if you expect them to actually be scientific, to not misrepresent the data willy-nilly, to not simply drop undesired data and never mention it, to not use manipulative language to make a statistically relevant amount of people answer in a way they want, ecetera.

It’s better to not give them shit at all.

I’m simping pipewire all day, that shit works flawless and is a godsend after years of pulse.

The amount of words right there are very ADHD incompatible so I’ll just say Amphetamine.

“ASMR” fucking riles me up, I can’t understand how that stuff is supposed to be nice. The only desire I have listening to it is to smash my fucking speakers / headphones after a short while. Imagine someone holding stuff close to your ear making obnoxious sounds, same thing.

You’re missing the issue, unfortunately. What you say is technically correct, but as long as a minority id actively persecuted they have to be actively shown to be normal and nice people to, well, normalize their existence. And right now the evil people are winning, so it’s even more important to mention it. We’re as far away from trans being normalized like left-handedness as it gets.

I see why this might even annoys some, but it’s not trans people who want to be in this situation. We (yes, hello 👋) just want to fucking live our lifes in peace and happiness, without the constant (additional) fighting and fear for our life.

About Lemmy… well, it’s the current alternative to corporate media. It’s just natural that those who’re vilified and cast’ out are the first to arrive here, as well as their allies. 😉

Had a discussion about something similar. “Why don’t we take all the energy created in fitness studios? People constantly push pedals there!”

It’s just so phenomenally little it doesn’t make any sense, a full routine wouldn’t even full charge a smartphone battery (not even close). Put solar on the studio roof instead.

I’d assume it’s the same with these. Apparently the idea was even abandoned when it was applied to cars on highways, even those don’t produce enough energy by driving over it to justify resources and maintenance.

The most trustworthy reviews are always those where the reviewers just bought the products.

So much this. One reason why there are so super few honest Bambu Lab reviews out there, they understood how to do PR through influencers and used their VC money to send thousands of devices everywhere for basically free (and keep doing so) to build an overly positive lifestyle image. Those few who do actual deep dives and get cut off from new free devices simply drown in the masses. Meanwhile their printers melt themselves and the A1 Mini apparently likes to catch fire.

Anycubic is a whole different beast, they’ve known to basically steal stuff for many years (like when they took Prusa’s first-gen MMU design and successfully patented a slightly different design). Shit like this is one of the reasons Prusa is meddling with new licenses in the first place.

Creality now went IPO and is blasting every corner of their products with AI. Elegoo also already broke licenses to close off their devices.

Pretty sure vendors like Snapmaker, Sovol or QIDI also have done a sufficient amount of shit.

Capitalism will always be a shitshow like this, and it’s annoying. Ethical or even lawful behaviour shouldn’t be something you have to be able to afford, it should be the fucking default because it’s made free and beneficial to everyone.

Important: This was just propaganda by the way which is already debunked, Canada never wanted to do this. See here and here. Not like a lot of ignorant fools who’re against MAiD would care about that.

Refreshing rain > deadly laser

They’re extremely new and open about what’s missing though. Their plans apparently got somewhat thrown all over the place by the sudden extreme interest and quite a few things aren’t yet in place (such as the self-hosting guide). Still works surprisingly well, and what they do goes into the right direction (no VC funding or investors, removal of the CLA, bound to GDPR, a full FOSS atack, etc).

Element is still as buggy as ever, unfortunately…

The only realistic alternative I’ve found so far is Fluxer, and that one is still in Beta. Very promising though.
