- Comment on Switch 2 demand appears to be flagging as Nintendo reportedly lowers production 6 days ago:
Wasn’t it the fastest selling console, at least for some time? So many people who wanted one will already have one.
- Comment on The US bans all new foreign-made network routers 6 days ago:
From another article about this topic:
This leads to the question of what exactly the FCC means by consumer-grade routers.
In September 2024, NIST submitted proposals to strengthen the – undeniably modest – IT security of routers (NIST IR 8425A). It states: “Routers forward data packets, most commonly Internet Protocol (IP) packets, between networked systems.”
This encompasses a wide range of devices, from WLAN repeaters to smartphones
So new smartphones are banned too?

It looks like the AMD model still comes with SO-DIMM. Was hoping for AMD + LPCAMM2 + repairability, but I guess you can’t have everything yet.

- Comment on Nearly Half of Europeans Want X Banned if it Continues to Break the Law 3 weeks ago:

if you want something that just works, and don’t have any special requirements, ubuntu is a decent option
- Comment on Police just made me find out not all Amazon lockers located outside are available 24/7. 4 weeks ago:
Yeah that doesn’t really look like somewhere you’re not supposed to go at some time. Maybe not want to, if it’s dark and there is no one else there. But at least the police is keeping an eye on things.
otherwise it sounds like I just broke into some parking lot
Didn’t mean to imply that, just trying to imagine the situation
- Comment on Police just made me find out not all Amazon lockers located outside are available 24/7. 4 weeks ago:
So you are in Austria and close to the border, or in a neighboring country and ordered to a locker in Austria? Is the locker on a private property that is not open to the public after 7 and that is why they were asking?
- Comment on Earbugld question: Does anyone actually like to silicone tipped earbuds over the solid plastic ones? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t like silicone tips but I prefer them over outside noise sometimes, so I still use them.

- Comment on Can we put shitjustworks behind a captcha? 2 months ago:
As an alternative, is it possible to disable the guest mode (reading without being logged in) on a lemmy instance?
On the downside, it would make it less accessible for new users or users who simply don’t want to use an account. But maybe it would be worth it, if it would help to stop scrapers.
Or the middle ground, have a captcha only in front of of the guest mode.

- Comment on How VPNs really work: Protocols, safety and myth - Sentient Rant 3 months ago:
- It encrypts your internet traffic in transit
It encrypts it in part of the transit, the part between the VPN server and the target is the same as it would have been without a VPN
- It prevents your ISP or local network from seeing which destinations you connect to
True but now your VPN provider can see everything your ISP would have. Depending on the jurisdiction of your ISP and VPN, that could make it better or worse
- Comment on Explained: Why you can't move Windows 11 taskbar like Windows 10, according to Microsoft 3 months ago:
When you buy a pc with mac os, you are usually stuck with it, at least for some time. When you buy a pc with windows, you can usually just uninstall it and install something else.
- Comment on Samsung to halt SATA SSD production, leaker warns of up to 18 months of SSD price pressure, worse than Micron ending consumer RAM 3 months ago:
Why would ending sata ssd production create price pressure for m2 ssds? If anything, they should be able to produce more of those.
- Comment on Norway’s mega wealth fund to reject Elon Musk’s $1 trillion Tesla pay package 4 months ago:
Tesla has sold 7 million and something cars in total according to google. If each of those was 100k, that would still be less than a trillion in total. How could one guy get paid more than the whole company ever made?

Fair point. But I can also see why people don’t want to call it by the name the current owner wants you to use.

- Comment on Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced 5 months ago:
Not justifying it, something that I paid for should not show ads. But there isn’t a current mainstream console that doesn’t have ads, so getting it once would still be better than getting it on every boot.
