How does piefed treat them differently?
- Comment on 1 day ago:
Just buy a leaf blower if you’re that lazy. Works infinitely better and will be cheaper after a year or two of snow.
Plus you can use it to dry your car after washing it in addition to any host of uses.
- Comment on 1 day ago:
The heat from your defrost is more likely to crack your windshield than their washers. That shit blows out some hot ass air when you have it cranked to full heat. I really doubt the water touching your windshield is warmer than 120f. Probably not even 100f if it’s outside.

If you’ve removed 95% of the snow and it’s just the ice left then yeah you’re pretty fine to drive.
The car wash should have heated water which should melt the ice/remaining snow pretty quickly as long as it’s indoors.
- Comment on In the US we have signs that say No Shirt No Shoes No service. When did this become a norm? Also if I am wearing a shirt and shoes but no pants can I still enter? 1 day ago:
Indecent exposure already has that covered. Now it’s just the rest of the clothes.
- Comment on How do I access my services from outside? 2 days ago:
Wireguard + OpenVPN works well for me.
OpenVPN fully supports multiple simultaneous connections. But Wireguard is such a pain in the ass with this. But Wireguard dgaf about OpenVPN connections.
- Comment on How do I access my services from outside? 2 days ago:
I’ve been looking at VPNs, but it feels weird, to route everything through my home IP
You don’t have to route all traffic through the VPN. Only traffic for your home network.
- Comment on Meta’s own research found parental supervision doesn’t really help curb teens’ compulsive social media use 3 days ago:
Who knew: watching your child doing meth will still get them hooked on doing meta. (Not sure why autocorrect changes it to meta but I’m leaving it)
- Comment on Awkward interaction with my doctor 3 days ago:
Just say “and btw your flys down” then keep talking about whatever you were talking about.
- Comment on My phone, iPad, and laptop finally all use the same USB-C charger. The galaxy is at peace. 3 days ago:
It’s not standardized on USB C. It’s standardized on whatever the USB IF standardized on. So when USB D is a think it will eventually switch to that.
- Comment on (REDO) FediNSFW the announcements community for the lemmyNSFW replacement 4 days ago:
Any idea when the content warning will be fixed?
- Comment on 'We Thought It Would Be Fun': Nintendo Has a Whole FAQ on Why It's Selling Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Separately for $20 Each - IGN 4 days ago:
Yes, yes they do. And many are considering that they’re doing this.
- Comment on Old Thin Clients - Which CPU is fine? 4 days ago:
A slower CPU sucks, but swapping sucks even more. Is the ram upgradeable? You can get 16gb ddr3 sticks of ram. Idk how much EOL/the ram pocalypse has affected their pricing though.
- Comment on Goth Girls 4 days ago:
Is the whole website broken? I cant get past the the 18+ warning on mobile or desktop?
Also is this a new lemmynsfw?
- Comment on Microsoft 365's buggy Copilot 'Chat' has been summarizing confidential emails for a month — yet another AI privacy nightmare 4 days ago:
Why would that make you an asshole?
- Comment on In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud 1 week ago:
Could be poor mastering. You can’t always just take a track and squish it down to a low bitrate without tweaking some settings.
- Comment on Is it a good idea to use an Android phone as an external SSD for backing up my home folder? 1 week ago:
Op is distro hopping. I don’t think their data is going to disappear in the week they’re fucking around with their computer.
- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 2 weeks ago:
They’ve already been pushing this for like a decade now. GeForce now has been a thing since like 2015.
- Comment on The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap. 2 weeks ago:
Lmao. All non shit PCs are “ai PCs” now. It’s already built into the CPU. All you need is not 8 gigs of ram and to put that button and Microsoft hands you that sweet sweet dosh.
- Comment on Newegg stock falls 17.7% after owner is detained by anti-corruption authorities in China 4 weeks ago:
They’ve been shit since they got bought out.
I’ve only bought from them twice since then, and both times have been awful.
- Comment on RAM Prices Got You Down? Try DDR3. Seriously! 4 weeks ago:
No
- Comment on If you have one, how much do you pay for a domain name? Any cheap registrar recommendations? 4 weeks ago:
Namecheap has random number only xyz domains for like a dollar so I have one of those.
- Comment on Should I replace my laptop battery, and are third-party batteries safe? 4 weeks ago:
3rd party batteries are rarely dangerous. They usually just kinda suck. They lie about their capacity, they degrade quicker than OEM.
Your battery is at the point where I’d start to consider getting a replacement. Just know that if you sort by price low to high you could get a battery worse than your current one. But buying expensive doesn’t mean you’ll get a good one either. They’re kinda just hit or miss.
- Comment on Sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that! PCs refuse to shut down after Microsoft patch 5 weeks ago:
The OS was kinda buggy, but vista changed a lot with drivers so probably most of the issues vista had were drivers. I bought a laptop with vista on it in 08 and it was rock solid.
- Comment on QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year 1 month ago:
Yeah. It’s not that hard.
I just did with that.
Also what are you typing blindly where punctuation actually matters?
- Comment on QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year 1 month ago:
I can blindly type with an on screen keyboard, it’s not that hard. What’s wrong with your phone where taps aren’t registering? And poor text prediction would be the same on physical vs on screen KB.
- Comment on Samsung, SK Reportedly Hike Server DRAM Prices 60-70% – Google, Microsoft in the Queue 1 month ago:
SK 8xing production is impressive. I know open ai bought ~40% of microns memory production. So increasing production by only 20% is pretty low. But like you said they had horribly low (for them) ram prices for a few years so they’re just trying to avoid that.
Sk must be banking on Micron not matching the spike.
- Comment on Dell admits consumers don’t care about AI PCs 1 month ago:
IBM has been all in on AI for like 20 years.
How long has Watson been out?
- Comment on Dell admits consumers don’t care about AI PCs 1 month ago:
I know Video editing software uses it for things like motion tracking.
It’s all stuff your GPU can do, but the NPU can do it for like 1/10th to 1/100th the power.
- Comment on My apartment building gives me free water but I pay for electricity. What if I run the faucet nonstop and rig up a hydro turbine in my bathtub to generate my power from it? 1 month ago:
Unless you live in a desert, or some other area where added humidity is a bonus then “swap coolers” are doing more harm than good.
