No company wants to stay stagnant. They want to grow. You can’t grow if you’re not making more money.

Imagine how hard it is to be this bad. Yet still people manage to do it.
- Comment on Experience with refurbished and recertified HDDs? 4 days ago:
1/3 of my refurbished drives died early. It tested fine before I put it in my raid array, but about 3 months in I was getting error after error. I swapped it with my spare and they’ve been fine so far.

That’s cool.
The executive brand doesn’t care about laws and will do things they’re not even allowed to do.

The time for “just vote” is long gone. Now people need to actually do something.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 5 days ago:
But like… that’s because most of the time it’s nationalism.
But the thing is America is supposed to be all about “Freedom”
Freedom is nationalism to Americans

If OP isn’t then the commenters sure are taking up the reins
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 5 days ago:
Its the flagship aspect that makes a phone fast, not the OS.
And it’s the OS that keeps it fast a few years down the road.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 5 days ago:
Android has a lot more free apps with ads, while on iOS there’s a lot more “gimme $2” apps. It’s a trade off.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 5 days ago:
As soon as you start flashing custom firmware the “just works” goes right out of the window.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 5 days ago:
And the phones that cost a fraction of the price are significantly slower, have a much worse screen, barely get any software updates, and overall just kinda suck.
Sure low and mid range phones are “good enough” but if it’s a device you use for hours every day do you really only want “good enough” for right now?
- Comment on Apple Pulls Encrypted iCloud Security Feature in UK Amid Government Backdoor Demands 1 week ago:
The law requires things to have a backdoor (or non encryption I guess). So it’s either sell in that market, or don’t and have security.
- Comment on Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device? 1 week ago:
Lemmy is not the demographic to ask this question. You’re definitely skewed towards using a desktop/laptop here.
- Comment on BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired 1 week ago:
The first Android phone had the nipple, so must be the layout or something.
- Comment on What can I actually do with 64 GB or RAM? 1 week ago:
700 Chrome tabs, a very bloated IDE, an Android emulator, a VM, another Android emulator, a bunch of node.js processes (and their accompanying chrome processes)
- Comment on Microsoft removes Windows 11 24H2 official support on 8th 9th 10th Gen Intel CPUs 1 week ago:
According to the PC health check program my 10th gen laptop is able to upgrade to Windows 11. So either that system hasn’t been updated, or this is just for newly manufactured PCs.
- Comment on The eye-popping amount of money Elon Musk has already slashed from the Education Department as staff melt down 2 weeks ago:
And it’s going to our childrens future.
I’d happily pay that $3.
- Comment on Handful of users claim new Nvidia GPUs are melting power cables again 2 weeks ago:
Every picture I’ve seen has been an outside pin. So my theory is it’s the cable getting tugged for cable management and even though it’s clipped in, it’s not making as good of contact.
That or just a bad cable design. I’ve bought a few cables from cablemod and I’m not happy with the wiring they used. Their website says “Crafted with 16AWG wiring” but they also brag about the flexibility of their cables so I assume they’re using stranded wires instead of a solid core so you lose a decent chunk of ampacity (and heat sinking).
- Comment on Apple, Microsoft Joining Google Using Gulf of America in Maps Programs 2 weeks ago:
There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.
- Comment on Article admits it's a smear campaign 2 weeks ago:

They reused the image from this article. You can see in the url the photo is dated from 2023 so they just reused an old image
- Comment on Article admits it's a smear campaign 2 weeks ago:
Since OP didn’t post the source.
- Comment on Self host websites 3 weeks ago:
This is one.
- Comment on Self host websites 3 weeks ago:
What are you trying to run? a VPS is pennies, and a phyiscal server isn’t much more. We have a bunch of servers that are $40 a month each and they come with 5 usable IPs, 32 gigs of ram, 1tb SSD etc. The cost of getting a static IP for home will be almost as much as a server. If you want less you can get less for a lot less money.
I’ve self hosted my own personal website for years now and it’s not really an issue outside of the power going out and my IP changing. I just update DNS and move on. But if this is for an actual work? Just pay the $10 a month, not having to worry about it is worth that money.
- Comment on Sid Meier's Civilization VII | Review Thread 3 weeks ago:
I detested civ 6 on launch. I bought the dlc when it was cheap but idk if I’ll ever like that game. Hopefully 7 is good, but I’m definitely gonna wait until I read all of the reviews.
- Comment on When would it make sense for someone to get a domain name? 3 weeks ago:
My domain is part of my phone number so it’s really easy for me to remember it. If you don’t want people to half 2/3 your phone number then maybe don’t do that. But I only use it for myself and it’s a lot less characters to remember than my IP.
- Comment on Microsoft won’t support Office apps on Windows 10 after October 14th 1 month ago:
Sure, but if you’re not opening random untrusted files, or trying to browse the interwebs through it what’s the chance of there ever being an issue?

At about 4 minutes in he shows opening a live stream by just entering the IP of the camera and /cam1ir for the IR camera.
- Comment on I'm transferring to another ward within my hospital and the whole thing feels odd. How do I sort myself out? 1 month ago:
It sucks that the ones who give attention to the manager are the ones in good graces with her and that the quiet one who works when they go smoking and gossiping gets ignored, unrecognized and treated worse because he doesn’t want to play office politics.
How do they know what you’re up to if you don’t talk to them about it?
- Comment on Dell kills the XPS brand 1 month ago:
For a little bit there with 12th and 13th gen laptops it seemed like it could have made sense.
U was the low power “normal” chip
P was the higher power chip
H was the highest power chips
Then i3-9 for the stack.
But then 100 and 200 series ditched that and the P series kinda merged with the H series and you have no idea what you’re getting.
