  No wonder trump wanted to “Americanize” the company. More access to kids.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your opinion on Ubiquiti/Unifi gear?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I like them. Got the whole house set up with it. Yeah, big corp IT gear will have security risks. I used PoE setups to not need to run electrical to the WAPs, used an AirMax directional antenna to get wifi at an outbuilding without needing to run cable or a powerful outdoor WAP for mesh or whatever broadcasting my wifi all over the neighborhood. Works great, stable, a bit fiddly to set up but once it’s set up it’s golden. I recommend buying used off ebay for all gear except the cloud key controller.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the Raspberry Pi Still an Affordable SBC? I Don't Think So⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you have any evidence that industrial manufacturers are sourcing Pi 5’s as controllers of choice? I think most manufacturers would use proprietary or purpose built controllers meeting required durability needs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top of the world, ma⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the joke, man.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the Raspberry Pi Still an Affordable SBC? I Don't Think So⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know what people would need a Pi 5 16gb for other than using it as a low-powered PC alternative. I’ve got a bunch of 4’s and 3’s doing utilitarian tasks, from running an older 3D printer to PiHole. One I’m using as a budget PC in the garage to listen to music and look up how-to videos if I get stumped on something.

  A $200+ 5 seems outside the needs of the users who have viewed Pi’s as relatively inexpensive hobbyist devices, but below the needs of people needing to do the work of desktop PCs.

  I’m sure there’s niche uses for them, but is there actual demand for them?

  We fry it, add fat, carbs, and/or add sugar.

  Done.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Taste the flavor⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  A fetish where people stick things up their urethra.

  we shouldn’t make fun of people dying just because they’re vegan. That’s tastelsss.

  Oh great, some wildly overpriced and underperforming GPUs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Is Rolling xAI Into SpaceX—Creating the World’s Most Valuable Private Company⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The richest man on Earth will absolutely get a bailout on our dime and not spend a cent of his net worth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You are allowed flavor⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  At least caramelize the onions and melt the cheese first.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Is Rolling xAI Into SpaceX—Creating the World’s Most Valuable Private Company⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Absolutely. And if the AI market takes a hit it will barely affect a government contracted space program that will get a taxpayer funded bailout if it has any trouble at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Is Rolling xAI Into SpaceX—Creating the World’s Most Valuable Private Company⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  “Valuable”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lightbulbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Sunsy Shine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lightbulbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have an actual full-spectrum daylight bulb and it’s pretty good. I use it when the days get really short, seems modestly effective. It’s not the typical “warm” lighting, it’s much more actual daylight. I can’t stand those hard white almost blueish light bulbs. Makes things feel industrial and cold. No idea why anyone calls them “daylight”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'I'll believe it when I see it': Windows 11 users are cynical about Microsoft's promises to fix the OS and stop pushing AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. In Windows 12.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would the United States actually risk a Tiananmen Square incident?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. The Tulsa race massacre for instance. Not that I’m comparing the current state of politics to longstanding racism, only that once you are sufficiently demonized by conservatives they have no problem killing you. And you can find similar events big and small throughout American history.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just say the word⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hell yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nature sure made the right choice⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe a hole of the appropriate singular size would need more structural support to remain open and be in more danger of: collapse, blockage, insect invasion, or foreign object ingestion - or objects large enough to be guaranteed to do more lung damage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can anyone explain why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Now show cbd/pot use.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the best way to drop 50lbs in two months without spending alot and no fad diets?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Severe illness or a gulag.

  50 lb over 8 weeks is pretty insane. 1 lb/week is pretty good. 2 a week is pushing it.

  50 isn’t going to happen without consequences.

  Management: (if they reply at all) “No. Do it the way we have always done it. Change is expensive.”

  Hopefully it will stay that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Netflix Becomes Max-Level Patron Of Blender's Development Fund⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Blender is safe.

  Nothing is impossible to fuck up when you have enough money and/or lawyers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Los Angeles aims to ban single-use printer cartridges — new ordinance will target ink and toner that can't be properly recycled⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re not wrong. Just have to be selective which brand printer you buy - and I say that with the awareness that a company can enshittify an online printer at their whim. BS Proprietary cartridges that know when they’ve been used up and tattle someone’s refilled them and refuse to work (looking at you, HP).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do people eat this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok, Brits… what is GOOD British food? Fish ‘n Chips? Mushy Peas? Full English? Sunday Roast? I’ve been to the UK more times than I can count and even the Pubs often serve international fare instead of Spotted Dick.
