I’m fighting this fight with phone and sd cards. It’s part of the reason they are killing sd card slots to get people to put everything in the cloud.
Sadly most people are morons and are doing exactly that.

I would pay for premium IF it was a reasonable price.
I don’t want shitty music bundled or whatever fuck else they are calling it now JUST youtube.
AND here’s the big one, I want the fucking downvote count back and sponsor skip. Most videos have ads and fucking sponsor segments which are also fucking ads. I’m not paying to watch that.
And downvote count is absolutely crucial to be able to detect bullshit videos quickly.
Google is offering a shit product and asking a premium price. Fuck em.

- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 1 week ago:
A lot of our financial fuckery is due to the fact that we have so many financially illiterate people, that companies can impose bullshit like this and get away with it. So in the end we all suffer because we can’t put financial pressure against said companies since they can wait us our surviving on the stupid.
This applies to a lot of stuff, from streaming to the to fast food to groceries.

Hm not really sure this answers what I mean. If you are hosting a site, how do you stop corps demanding your name from the hosting provider and going after you?

Micro leaks can plug themselves with time as calcium builds up.
The easiest fix to that is just a sharkbite valve since its accessible and visible. Probably 15 min job.
Or you could go with the pex clamp route but that requires a special tool.

The dating scene has been ruined by social media and 10% of batshit women and 10% of batshit men.
Women and men are afraid to talk to each other, because we’ve been lied to by Hollywood and the media that if you approach a woman she will laugh at you tell everyone you have a 1" penis and then throw her water in your face.
Or conversely if you as a woman show interest in a guy you are immediately called a slut and are asking to be raped.
The truth is that 90 % of people are normal and simply want to connect. There is nothing wrong with expressing your interest and if you do it politely and like a human being even if you are rejected the world won’t stop.
It’s all part of life and I’m really sorry for the younger generation because things have really gotten fucked up for them.

Chat GTP answer
Sure, let’s say you have a typical car battery with a capacity of 60 amp-hours (Ah).
And let’s assume you have a small refrigerator that consumes about 100 watts of power when running.
To calculate how long the battery can power the refrigerator, we need to convert the power consumption from watts to amps.
Power (watts) = Voltage (volts) × Current (amps)
Assuming a car battery voltage of 12 volts:
100 watts / 12 volts = 8.33 amps
Now, we can determine the approximate runtime:
60 amp-hours / 8.33 amps ≈ 7.2 hours
So, with a fully charged 60 Ah car battery, you could run the refrigerator for approximately 7.2 hours before the battery is completely drained. However, it’s important to note that factors such as battery age, temperature, and other loads on the battery can affect actual performance.

The biggest problem with lemmy is that we don’t have a good way to search for info.

Honestly your mental health has almost certainly improved since leaving that place.
Their algorithms are designed to pump engagement and outrage. They want you either scared or angry and it sucks.
Lemmy has less content, but is also less addictive and less toxic. Yes it’s still social media, it still has shit bags but the numbers are far better.

I don’t know if all these recent jet memes are people just joking around or are you people actually convinced private jets are the problem?
Taylor swift, and every single billionaire alive could be flying 24/7/365 OR NOT and it would make absolutely no difference to fighting climate change.
The main polluters are industry and farming.
All this other shit around are just distractions keeping you from actually going after the people that are causing our crisis.
I don’t know if it’s astroturfing or what, but it seems like it’s deliberate manipulation to keep people inactive.
You memeing on Tylor or using wood straws, or recycling your soda can does fuck all. A single paper plant will dump out so much co2 and pollution that will negate the effort of millions.

I just left and came here after 10+ years on reddit. No point wasting time energy trying to take reddit down. They are fucked anyway. Anytime I check back for something occasionally the quality of posts / comments is just pure garbage.
