  A good example of this is the stock portfolios that allow you to mimic Nancy Pelosi’s investments. By seconding every decision she makes it directly boosts every stock she buys.

  I’d just call it misguided.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why make 250GB m.2 disks instead of 1TB⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. NAND is also quite expensive and is the main difference between the two. Also for a 2230 size it’s significantly more compact than a 2280, so you’ll find bigger price differences on small form factor drives than large form factor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the longest, hardest fantasy rpg out there?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, if you’ve played everquest 1 I feel like you’ve already hit the lore duration jackpot. It’s also more complex than most by far if you include classes that take a lot of skill to play well. Big difference between skilled and unskilled players for sure

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the problem here?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks like head collision. Make sure the bed isn’t baked on the other side causing bumps. It’s odd that it’s multiple spots so definitely look under the bed and make sure everything is clean. If so then check out the bed for breakdown in the top layer. There’s not a great reason other than z collision for that tearing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isint lemmy more popular?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To the biggest degree it’s comfort elsewhere and numbers attracting numbers. To a smaller but still substantial degree it’s the same reason the top 3 phone brands have less customization and a more plug and play experience than rooted phones. It solves a huge amount of the problems with Reddit, but reddit is simpler to join, simpler to understand, feels more secure, and has so many communities and active users that even inactive communities can look active by how many people mistakenly post there.

  Depends on the OS. They can be chopped down by removing windows aero / transparency features among some other memory hogs, plus if it has an nvme then virtual memory can do some fast enough heavy lifting. That being said, I think the last OS Microsoft made that could run functionally on 4gb without significant virtual memory useage is Windows 8 and I wouldn’t wish that experience on you, nor recommend it for security reasons. If you use Linux you probably won’t need to upgrade for a long while with that easy workload.

  My pi 5 acts like a normal decent computer on Linux builds but windows would crunch it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Any idea what might be going on with this print?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It looks to me like those clips that come inward a bit are under-supported and it’s leading to poor adhesion of the whole layer. You may try again without the “ignore or remove minor overhangs” equivalent option ticked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Microsoft ended Windows 10 support, why is it still getting updates like every other day?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just going out on a limb, but with windows 11 being so similar to 10, it would make sense to continue to port updates over to 10 that are fully compatible. That being said, feature updates are over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is re-visiting a place of trauma a good idea? Have anyone done it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I know most internet people are ready to offer psychological advice at the drop of a hat, but this is really a question for a therapist because every situation is different and we don’t know your struggles even close to enough to speculate.

  This doesn’t seem like something to rush into, personally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would it be correct to say that enshittification is the physical manifestation of the economic ai bubble bursting?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely a symptom, not the cause or the singular cause. It’s very telling that everyone could see that AI, like robotics, was instead of being a boon for workers having to work less hard, obviously a harbinger of mass layoffs. People understand this system and know the ones in charge of its effects hate us and want us to die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help figuring out my pressure washer?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably worth a warm soap soak or maybe vinegar treatment to reduce any calcium build up in the head. Electrical-wise you could bypass the circuit to power the motor and see if it spins okay with either a variac or a variable dc power supply depending on what motor it is. If it still stalls then could check brushes/any gearing jammed up. If it doesn’t stall then I suspect a overcurrent or thermal protection circuit is triggering. Could be corrosion on the board, a heatsink coming loose, or simply a jam you can’t see. Lots of possibilities, but people who work specifically on these would know more about the most likely things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Richest American to FAFO?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Brian Thompson and Alex Jones are the only example of a rich people falling from grace because of people in a different class that I can think of. Most examples like Elizabeth got clapped because they played class warfare tactics against their own team. Grifting is only allowed against the poor, otherwise it’s called securities fraud.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Richest American to FAFO?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Third option, he manipulates the stock and crypto markets and nobody bats an eye, netting huge sums of wealth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a drink with taste of energy drink without caffeine?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Be careful chasing the acidity of energy drinks. Full throttle is around 2 pH, not so good for your teeth or stomach health.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why can't a PC-laptop boot without datetime?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  TPM chip relies on it for security. If you’re not using that it would work but you’d still have network issues.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Golden Rule is flawed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The issue with this, is that interpretation of actions as positive or negative treatment towqrds others are subjective. Treating someone who thinks they’re being a good person badly because you don’t think they’re authentic about it leads to a lot of circular nistreatment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you had to buy a new TV, what brand would you get?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’re going to utilize the interface for apps then LG or Samsung, if not, then it doesn’t matter much, try and get the equivalent panel if you can afford it in one of the brands that uses LG and Samsung panels. The biggest difference going with big brands is upscaling performance and menu smoothness.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Were both parties cheated on?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Liz wasn’t cheated on, but definitely got the better end of this deal by no longer being with Asher. She’ll see that in time. Asher cheated on the BF full stop, it’s a good lesson in what liars will do to get what they want at others expenses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the line is when the primary bread winner is your tenant. Covering costs of mortgage only is a nice thing to do, profiting off of them beyond the mortgage is exploitation. That’s the difference, your assertion at the end is highly dependent on how they choose the rates for said houses and whether they profit off the work of others in that transaction.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you recognize this PC case?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is as close as I could get within the data given.

  I’m not sure if it’s still around, but Alcohol 120% used to be great for bit for bit copying to iso

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could one legally get a hold of those bank bill dye security dye packs, dye your own legally obtained cash with it, and spend it places? Just to make people suspect you're secretly a bank robber.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t need anything special to buy those packs. The dye is made to appear black and easy to wash off, but it’s actually ultraviolet pigmented and nearly impossible to wash off.

  That being said, the vast majority of banks I’m familiar with just have known serial straps and/or GPS tracker straps that activate when lifted out of the drawer. Ink is a bit old-fashioned. Especially with network connected counters, it’s easy enough to flag appearances of know serial bills and most robbers aren’t checking the money for lumps from a GPS pack.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What makes a fart dry vs wet?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The swamp ass factor (saf) as well as the % forecast on diarrhea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I found voter irregularities in my home district do I have to hire a lawyer to prove it.? Or just let it go and the Florida Orange win?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think you’d be best served by doing all due diligence and proving this to be the case before approaching media. A lawyer would be if you were harmed, so if your vote was not counted, then you were harmed. There also needs to be a known plaintiff, though, so you need a lot of data for that step. You can’t simply use conjecture for legal proceedings, which is why Trump lost or rendered null every case he filed in 2020.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does people doing things that upset others also upset you?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Anti-social behavior should be shunned. There are varying degrees of harm which people tip the scale on, but I think minimizing harm is an admirable attribute, doing no deliberate harm reduction is sociopathic, and maximizing harm is sadistic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would I repurpose a work laptop?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Step 1: validate that it doesn’t have Intel AMT enabled.

  Step 2: Wipe the hard drive with your own os, not lenovos recovery.

  Wouldn’t it be Hestia because Prometheus stole it from her?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you take a short term job(1-2 months) over a local longer term that makes nearly 8months worth of salary??⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So long as everything is legitimate, I would say go for it, especially if it helps build your resume. Just keep all doors open. I’ve known lots of people in conservation, and the job to job hopping as grants expire can be extremely stressful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Check your indexed folders settings. Newer windows relies much more on this, but does a great job when what you’re after is included.
