• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Swiss Experiment Will Place Solar Panels Between Train Tracks⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It being between the rails probably makes it easier to automate most of the installation, cleaning, and removal at the end of their life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low Cost Mini PCs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They come with Windows 11 pre-installed though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low Cost Mini PCs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Worth noting, because it lists Beelink PCs on there. I received one from them with secure boot disabled. Doesn’t mean there was anything wrong with it, but it does feel a bit sketchy when a manufacturer disables secure boot out of the box.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kim Dotcom to be extradited from New Zealand to the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait what happened?!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Two-tier justice’ in Britain is real – but it’s not what the right says it is⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s conditional support though. As soon as the right doesn’t consider Jews useful, we will become a target again. As you say, it’s because the western right wing and Israel have a common enemy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK economy continues recovery with 0.6% growth⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean if everyday things like food and rent are still too expensive then it’s not really recovering. I don’t really see how the pursuit of endless growth can possibly be good for regular people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨With Shared Software, Landlords Are Teaming Up to Raise Rents⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I honestly didn’t even know that was a thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anthropic was supposed to be the good guy. It can’t be — unless government changes the incentives in the industry.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And with it’s ability to just spit out garbage misinformation with unmatched speed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hands On with Spacetop the AR Laptop⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Potentially privacy? Like only you can see your screen. But that’s also a downside if you want to show someone something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People are having trouble following Harris’s campaign Twitter account⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but because Wikipedia articles, to an extent, ephemeral it is good practise to use the sources at the bottom of the article as your source, rather than the Wikipedia article itself. It makes finding the origin of the information easier.

  If it is something more permanent like a paper or a published article, then that doesn’t suffer from the same issues

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK parents should check under-18s’ phones for nude photos, says police chief⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Police chief wants excuse to look at illegal material

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nuclear too slow to replace coal, and baseload “simply can’t compete” with wind and solar, AEMO boss says⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I care about what they wrote

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What tv to look for nowadays?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  IIYAMA make DSDs that are 4K, although I know that’s not a requirement for OP, so that should be able to replace a TV pretty well

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Miliband overrules officials with immediate North Sea oil ban⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, this has made me more hopeful in this governments abilities

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Never heard of planet computers until you mentioned the Cosmo Communicator. Their products look really cool!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scientists aghast at bizarre AI rat with huge genitals in peer-reviewed article | It's unclear how such egregiously bad images made it through peer-review.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Retractions are important in case issues with the method are found after publication. For example, if it turns out a piece of equipment was improperly calibrated and so the results can’t be trusted, a retraction of any work based on those results would be expected.
