Actually, in 2022 there were 94m barrels produced globally. So this is 2%. Statistically, not insignificant. Hopefully it’ll continue to grow rapidly.
- Comment on FCC moves ahead with Title II net neutrality rules in 3-2 party-line vote 1 year ago:
I might be mistaken then, but doesn’t part of Net Neutrality mean that telecommunication companies can’t throttle unlimited plans?

I used the phone app and started a chat. Here’s what I asked, and their response:

T-Mobile users; be aware that T-Mobile has prepared for this and are trying to automatically transition grandfathered accounts with unlimited everything into their new plans.
I’m not 100% sure if the coverage of the new plans are technically worse, but they’re definitely more expensive. And I wouldn’t be surprised if the new plans had contact language to do a rug pull in the future.
You need to opt out of the transition.
- Comment on When a user is banned on one Lemmy federate instance, are they banned on all federated instances? 1 year ago:
As far as I understand;
A user is specific to one instance. In order to interact with the fediverse on that specific account, they need to log into that instance. If they’re banned from that instance, they cannot log in and interact with the rest of the fediverse.
There’s nothing stopping them from logging into an alt, whether on that same instance or on another instance.
- Comment on [Rumor] Apple To Issue New Software Update For iPhone 12 To Bring Its Radiation Down To Acceptable Levels 1 year ago:
The word “radiation” has unfortunately been commandeered by idiots to mean “TOXIC MAGIC AIR”. Lightbulbs radiate (produce light).
In this case they’re 100% just reducing the gain on the phone’s signal strength. No harm prevented. Purely regulatory.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
On Reddit, I was mainly subscribed to a few niche subreddits. By reddit’s standards, that’s still like 100k subscribers. But over here, even though there might be 1000 people subscribed to those same niche communities, the 90-9-1 rule still applies. Either the community has one super-spammy power user trying to boost life into the community, or there’s just no one actually posting anything.
I’m getting enough of a fix to stay on Lemmy and wade out the peace and quiet, but I do long for the engagement of 50k+ users on a truly niche topic. My willingness to stay on Lemmy has been helped by me starting to re-utilize off-site forums specifically to those niches. But I can totally understand how it just feels dead to a lot of the Reddit exodus.

I finally broke the shackles of Baldurs Gate 3, and now I’m playing… Split screen Baldurs Gate 3 with my wife! It’s genuinely just so good…

I can attest that my comment was made in isolation. I intentionally didn’t look at conversations or reviews and wanted a fresh experience all to myself. So I’m not parroting or trying to push some negative narrative.
Now that I’ve slept on it, I’m going to dive back in with my expectations reduced, and I’m hoping I’ll have lots of fun with it.

One thing I can say so far after a few hours is that their advertising department and Inon Zur did a masterful job capturing a whimsical aesthetic that nostalgically reminds me of some educational TV space shows like Cosmos.
Now that I’m playing the game, it feels significantly more clunky than that, and I haven’t gotten as immersed into that aesthetic as I had hoped. Really just FEELS like Fallout in space so far, which is a bit disappointing.

That’s not a shower thought you braindead, try hard, complete waste of a human… Get off of here; there’s no room for idiots here. Reported.
JK, just thought I’d channel my inner rage-commenter for old times sake. Welcome 😄
- Comment on What should I do about cracks in the foundation/crawl space? 1 year ago:
It’s because Lemmy strips EXIF data. Depending on the phone, rotations are only saved in EXIF data as opposed to saving a new image.
