- Comment on Project to suck carbon out of sea begins in UK 5 days ago:
I can just upload gifs like an image with Jerboa. Some other clients don’t work, because it becomes a jpg for some reason.
- Comment on How important is it that cans are clean when i put them in the recycling. 6 days ago:
In theory you don’t need to clean them at all, because they will hose them down at tge recycling plant and also some residue will incinerate when they melt them.
However, until it’s colkected, dirty trash will attract rats and insects and it will smell disgusting, especially in summers. I would recommend cleaning it a bit, if you can.

- Comment on How do I make Lemmy feel less dead? 1 week ago:
Yeah, there’s a lot of pists like “Version X of program Y has been released” or other usekess tech stuff, but that’s just like 20 users. Once you have blocked them, the good stuff is easier to find.
- Comment on How do I make Lemmy feel less dead? 1 week ago:
The All feed seems to have hundreds of posts throughout the day. I also have a lot of communities blocked, just because I’m not interested in them. There’s still coming a lot of other stuff through. Lemmy is just amazing with lots if content.

I browse the All feed sorted by New and just block/filter everything I’m not interested in. There’s always new stuff.

- Comment on Tesla (TSLA) has to replace computer in ~4 million cars or compensate their owners 1 week ago:
Some people bet Elons political influance will benefit Tesla in the future.
Personally I doubt he cares about it.
Also, if they successfully transform the US into a dictatorship, money loses meaning for those in charge.
- Comment on Id like to turn off notifications from the Galaxy Store, but I can't. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE. Filthy basterds. 1 week ago:
I think you only get this if you agreed to its terms and registered. Not sure, because I never got these and can’t agree with the terms.
- Comment on How long before I can sleep on my memory foam mattress? 2 weeks ago:
AFAIK it’s done when it reaches the final height and isn’t bent any more (assuming it came vacuum shrinked and rolled up)
- Comment on The party of wanton, intentional harm. 2 weeks ago:
the stable genius made it more easy for foreign investors to take over US companies 🙄
- Comment on See this idiot 3 weeks ago:
She just played along as a joke, of course.
- Comment on What kind of CAPTCHA is this? 3 weeks ago:
It’s on some keyboards and opens the start menu on windows. It can, of course, also be used on Linux, because it’s just a key on a keyboard. For example, in Gnome it opens the overview per default (where you see all the windows as small tiles and can use the app search).
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
No, there’s also tone of voice, wording, facial expressions, smile/laugh and gestures indicating a joke. Also, once one person joked it can be followed up by more jokes, like a session.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
I think Monaco is a different country, but I’m not sure about Schengen at the time and how it works for ships. I vaguely remember the ships captain has to tell customs when they approach a harbor with foreigners and someone may come to check passports. If that was necessary at that time and they didn’t do it, but dock with you on board anyway, it was technically human trafficking, because they basically smuggled you in secretly.

It was Intercast
- Comment on Yes, in the 1980s we downloaded games from the radio 3 weeks ago:
for a while they sent websites over the tv signal. i forgot how it was called tho. you needed a tv tuner card to receive it on your pc
- Comment on Ninja sword owners will be paid to surrender weapons before ban 3 weeks ago:
It’s ridiculous to ban them because of that. The criminals could just use a kebab knife instead or whatever. A proper way would be to ban carrying all long knives around, except in closed boxes. So the kebab guy or sword collector can buy a knife and bring it to his restaurant/home, but by the time a criminal gets it out of the box ppl can call the police and it’s already a crime.

I hope, they catch the guy who did this.
- Comment on How would world politics be like if the top 100 countries (in terms of military strength) all had their own nuclear arsenals? 4 weeks ago:
a few dozen nukes make other military strength less important. an army of a few hundred soldiers could destroy a whole other country. so nations could focus on more important things.
- Comment on How did you guys get your fediverse real-time notifications to work? 4 weeks ago:
the first thing i do after installing an app is switching off notifications. i can switch it back on later, if i think it could be heloful, but in like 90% of apps they stay off
- Comment on How likely is the US government going to identify and arrest every online user who have disagreed with the current administration? 4 weeks ago:
they’ll just pour it all into AI. the people they wheelbarrow out of the gas chambers can’t dispute it any more.

Perfectly in front of the “no smoking” sign 😂

better bring your sword to the job interview, for the trials.
- Comment on Nuclear power’s global stagnation 1 month ago:
People often forget that nuclear, even though it’s cleaner than coal and oil, is still a fossil fuel that has to be mined and causes lots of havoc and pollution at the mining sites. It’s often swept under the rug together with waste storage.
- Comment on Did sites end up making money from API restrictions? 1 month ago:
I’m pretty sure he wanted to harm it before the elections or at least make it more right wing. I think he succeeded in both to a degree, his candidate won and he’s getting his reward.
- Comment on How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? 1 month ago:
they will put the battery in a section not waterproof under the back cover. the replacement battery will come with a waterproof glue circle around the contacts. when replacing it, you will rub off some old glue and seal it again by inserting the new one. water can enter the back cover, but do no harm there.
