250kmph = 155 MPH
- Comment on Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential) 20 hours ago:
A Deck has two touchpads that work as mice.
And they suck trying to use them for an FPS.
- Comment on Why is society so hard to work within whether online or physically in person 20 hours ago:
We’ve been raised in an individualist society.

Good ol caching, gotta love it.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed 1 day ago:
Only time will tell.
No way in hell Nintendo would come out and talk about exploits in their game console. Also if they knew about it they’d fix it first.
- Comment on AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking 1 day ago:
Also wouldn’t this be directing a ton of money to google? (or I guess any other ad provider)
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 4 days ago:
Are those qi2 chargers or qi1? The magnets make a huge difference.
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 5 days ago:
Bonus: the landline was already wired so just don’t unplug it ever and use it like before.
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 5 days ago:
That’s not physically possible.
But it is extremely efficient for what it is. The first number I found on google said it’s 95% efficient.
- Comment on Cloudflare announces AI Labyrinth, which uses AI-generated content to confuse and waste the resources of AI Crawlers and bots that ignore “no crawl” directives. 1 week ago:
Cloudflare isn’t the best at blocking things. As long as your crawler isn’t horribly misconfigured you shouldn’t have much issues.
- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 1 week ago:
Radiowaves are not free real estate. Every country has their own laws on what frequencies you’re allowed to use for what.
2.4ghz frequencies are basically as unregulated as they can get in the US, so that’s why wifi used that for the longest time. I’m not sure what devices used 5ghz before, but they took that frequency for wifi. You have to fight for every mhz you can get in radio waves.
- Comment on Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be? 1 week ago:
No, the police will show up at your door on October 11th and arrest you on the spot.
If you’re in the US you’ll be sent to El Salvador. If you’re anywhere else you’ll be sent to the US, receive a few tattoos, then El Salvador.
- Comment on Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be? 1 week ago:
Or look at it the other way: they hate Linux so much they’d rather deal with that than deal with Linux.
- Comment on The early 2000s capacitor plague is probably not just a stolen recipe 1 week ago:
Lmao my first guess was “is this just a summary of that video.”
- Comment on Why can’t HVAC be made smarter? 2 weeks ago:
They can, they’re called smart thermostats. They need to know the outside and inside temp and honestly the easiest way to do that is to just connect them to the internet. Plus they’re even better when they know it’s going to be cold all day vs cold for half the day, then the sun comes out and is really hot the second half.
- Comment on E-waste or Linux? Charities face tough choices as Windows 10 support ends 2 weeks ago:
Secure boot has been a requirement for like 10+ years now. I think windows 8 was when they required it on all new computers. You could turn it off if you really wanted and I think it would still work, but why would you? Linux has played well with it for almost as long.
- Comment on My community for posting stuff related to Sanrio and Kawaii aesthetic!! 3 weeks ago:
I love these posts that are “I created a community for X” then there’s nothing there.
There should be a rule or something that the community needs at least 10 posts before it can be shared here. I swear to god that’s like half the posts I see.
- Comment on 'Writing is on the wall for spinning rust': IBM joins Pure Storage in claiming disk drives will go the way of the dodo in enterprises 3 weeks ago:
For servers physical space is also a huge concern. 2.5” drives cap out at like 6tb I think, while you can easily find an 8tb 2.5” SSD anywhere. We have 16tb drives in one of our servers at work and they weren’t even that expensive. (Relatively)
- Comment on The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025 3 weeks ago:
In stock, but not at the right price. MSRP is $250. The cards I’m seeing are $350 and up.
For $250 it’s a good card. For $350 not so much.
- Comment on How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? 3 weeks ago:
That’s a ruggedized phone, most people don’t want a phone that’s twice as thick and doesn’t provide anywhere near twice the battery.
- Comment on The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025 3 weeks ago:
It should still be better. Or at least cheaper.
- Comment on Starting to self host 3 weeks ago:
Start with a VM on your computer and see what you want to do/need from there.
Leaving a laptop on is (almost) free.

… what?
- Comment on Trump considers criminal charges for USAID staff after DOGE uncovered wild 'abuse' 4 weeks ago:
‘If they are detecting outright fraud, not just bad programs, not just ignoble programs, not just programs that don’t support the national interest of the United States, if they’re finding fraud, then, absolutely’ the wrongdoers should be prosecuted, Rep. Self said.
Big emphasis on the if. If there is actual fraud then yes they should face charges.
- Comment on YSK: Your language settings in Lemmy might be wrong 4 weeks ago:
So far the only time I’ve encountered that is forcing no language to be set which is obnoxious.
- Comment on YSK: Your language settings in Lemmy might be wrong 4 weeks ago:
I wish there was a way to auto tag your posts as a language. 99.99% of my comments will be English. I should t have to pick English from the stupid drop down.
Also from what I’ve seen most apps just ignore language all together.
- Comment on Why can't we go back to small phones? 4 weeks ago:
Demand also isn’t there. The iPhone SE sold ok, but the other thing to keep in mind was that it was the cheap iPhone too so it’s supposed to sell.
If it was outselling the main model every year then they’d keep making them small. But they didn’t so they got dropped.
- Comment on What is the best looking retro console or PC? 4 weeks ago:
I’d love to get one of these displays for that very reason. But I ain’t shipping something like that, and I’m sure people want too much money for it online anyways.
The post is best console or PC.
- Comment on A new study found adaptive traffic signals powered by big data reduced peak-hour travel times by 11% in China’s 100 most congested cities – saving 31.73 million tonnes of CO₂ annually. 4 weeks ago:
What annoys me is the road to work in the morning actually seems to do the opposite. It’s a 35 or 40mph road, but if you do 40 you’re not gonna make it through without stopping. But if you do 50-60? No stops.
Once again though people don’t pick up on this.
