No you won’t.
- Comment on Do you care about up/down votes? 2 days ago:
It depends, once I got like 20 upvotes and it was amazing to think them at 70% of Lemmy users read and agreed with my post!

So ehhh, I’m thinking of starting a submarine company, do you want to be in sales and marketing?
- Comment on This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast! 5 days ago:
Seagate have never once secretly changed the underlying disk technology on a NAS grade drive to one utterly unsuited for use in a NAS drive and then sold it as a NAS grade drive at a premium price because it’s a NAS grade drive. So there’s that.
- Comment on I feel attacked 1 week ago:
I feel like a midlife crisis is supposed to be a significant deviation/extreme deviation where you panic for lost youth and run out and buy something silly you wouldn’t normally get and start running marathons.

These are just hobbies.
- Comment on I feel attacked 1 week ago:
I did this as a hobby anyway, but I just can’t find the time.
- Comment on NVIDIA stable driver 575.57.08 released for Linux 1 week ago:
Does it include all the drivers this time? I didn’t appreciate installing it the last time (well, tbh I never do cause fuck knows how I installed it the last time but none of the methods are compatible) but having everything break because the drivers were borked didn’t help at all.

Oh man, this happened with my wife too, just bumped into her and next thing you know she’s pregnant. I can’t believe how fertile I am sometimes.

There’s a link to a Google drive with what appears to be quite a detailed assembly manual and some stls.

I’ve paid for the year, so I’ll do my damnedest to run up their gippity bill.

Have you tried cleaning the port out, mostly it’s crap built up in the port.
- Comment on Grieve with me 2 weeks ago:
Don’t do this, just clean it out gently with a small scraper.
- Comment on Punctuation 2 weeks ago:
Believe it or not, VISA and MasterCard are effectively the arbiters of mortality on the internet. They act as payment processors for most porn sites, if your site shows acts or imagery that they believe is “too far” they’ll remove your ability to accept money so sites keep content on the right side of what payment processors find acceptable.
Season 1 of the Hot Money podcast goes into a lot more detail and is a really interesting listen.

Jeez, did not know that! Thanks.
- Comment on PHILIPS FIXABLES. 3D-PRINTED PARTS FOR FRESH Starts. on YouTube 4 weeks ago:
Kudos where it’s due, but Philips is not a great poster boy(or gal) for a good corp. Outside of the medical field they basically license their name to other companies and make very little themselves.
- Comment on Is anyone using a BMCU 4 weeks ago:
Yeah pretty much from what I’ve come across this far. I may regret this lol. There’s a couple of videos on YouTube, one’s in silence and the other’s in Chinese.
There definitely seems to be a few in the wild built by English speakers so there might be a few people I can tap up for advice.

I’ll do my best! I’ve gone for the parts kit from triangle labs. I figure worst case it can probably be persuaded to work with something a bit less proprietary down the line. 20-30 day lead time on parts, $75 - I think I’m going to need some Bambu parts in addition, but I’ll do my best to document it as I go.
- Comment on Is anyone using a BMCU 4 weeks ago:
Welp, I’ve pulled the trigger, let’s see where this one leads.

- Comment on Applying 'extreme heat' to lithium-ion batteries reportedly restores their capacity, and I think it's the sustainable tech breakthrough of 2025 1 month ago:
They’ll not combust, I’d hazard a guess that air pods are made from ABS which has a glass transition temperature of 105C, so they will melt.
- Comment on Keir Starmer does not believe trans women are women, No 10 says 1 month ago:
I’ll probably fuck my terminology up here, forgive me, I try. Questions I have:
Are there a lot of people who look at other people’s genitals in public toilets?
Can these people be arrested because I think they might be perverts and I don’t want them looking at my kids?
Are people going to have to start showing their genitals to security guards?
Has someone given security guards the right to demand to see people’s genitals?
How the fuck does that even work when someone’s had gender reassignment surgery?
Presumably trans men must now use the women’s toilets?
Does someone who’s had gender reassignment surgery need to bring their full medical history with them in order to prove they’re using the “correct” toilet?
Not aimed particularly at you flamingos - just questions that are coming to mind reading this thread.
Seems to me this would be a lot simpler if people would just stop looking at other people’s genitals in toilets uninvited.
- Comment on Trans women should use toilets based on biological sex, Phillipson says 1 month ago:
How would they know what genitals someone has? Did I miss the memo where we’re supposed to look at other people’s genitals in the toilets? I’m not on board with this.
- Comment on Trans women should use toilets based on biological sex, Phillipson says 1 month ago:
This is the same person that once said “it’s not right to say only women have a cervix”
Zero conviction.
- Comment on Angry, disappointed users react to Bluesky's upcoming blue check mark verification system 1 month ago:
This doesn’t appear to be given to a centralised authority. If the authentication process fails then it falls back to the previous method anyway. In reality most people won’t bother to authenticate if it involves any significant work.
