• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you have an infinitely long wavelength of light? Or is there some maximum?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn’t f=0 describe any place of equilibrium in the electromagnetic field? Anywhere there isn’t currently a photon?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you have an infinitely long wavelength of light? Or is there some maximum?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If I’m not mistaken, their last paragraph describes this to contrast the answer above about the longest (I.e. lowest) frequency.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why doesn’t Apple/Samsung/Google use new tech like every other phone maker?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Ask any apple fanboy/fanatic and they will tell you, and they will be correct: Apple rarely leads the charge. They wait and they bide their time, and they watch how a technology is applied and how it works well and how it fails, and then they engineer a solution that they believe to be a smoother user experience to everyone else, and only then do they drop a new tech.

  Budget phone makers are trying to stand out and captivate a much smaller market segment, so they have to go big or go home, or else no one will care.

  The big guys are so big that they can actually use the market itself as market research, and the big guys are so big they can hold out until they know they have a stable, proven solution.

  It’s high-effort satire and the original site is now derelict but it originates from this page.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bring them back!!!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The new movies suck ass because they try to make science the bad guy, but not only is that a shit story we all see through, but it still reads as capitalistic greed and hubris, but now the movie feels like it doesn’t know what it’s talking about.

  Change just one “n” to a “d” and we’ll have some coffee and we’ll talk

  New York is Massachusetts…Massachusetts is New York!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the part of the internet that we have forgotten. Everyone is supposed to be their own little island but they all connect. If I want news I shouldn’t have to go to Facebook, I should have to go to the news org.

  This is why the Fediverse has been thriving by imitating monolithic platforms like Reddit or Twitter but doing so in a way that domains (aka “sites” are still all their own.

  I shouldn’t have to go to Reddit to get to CNN, I should have to go to CNN to get CNN. CNN should not join Lemmy, CNN should host a Lemmy instance and have communities for topics and programs, and its users should only be people who work there. And that should all be federated out for the rest of us to interact with.

  (CNN was the quickest news org name to type and I wasn’t about to use Fox as an example)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Steam controller was ahead of its time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s actually quite comfortable to use, despite it feeling like an Xbox Duke with anaphylaxis and as thin and cheap as the Wii U gamepad without the battery in it. I’m sure that they did much better with the Steam Desk and eventual rumored Steam Controller 2 but they definittknownwhat they’re doing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protect your inbox from unsolicited adverts with McTruth Email Defense™⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wasn’t someone botting DMs on Lemmy with the name Chad McTruth? Also I think someone made a comm for it too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The End Of The Hackintosh Is Upon Us⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Is there no way to get it to run on ARM systems? Are none of them powerful enough to be useful without being Macs?

  Well… well how’d you get the beans above the frank!!?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Welcome to the Labour police state⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Same as everywhere else

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You've got to stick up for the little guy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly I’d defend more of their bullshit if they used their billions and billions of liquidity to like drop non-fentanyl laced food into Gaza.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Nintendo locked down the Switch 2’s USB-C port and broke third-party docking⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The USB consortium should sue Nintendo to force them to take the USB connector off the switch 2 then.

  It ain’t universal if you block it. From working with anything but your devices, and yet you advertise it that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank you, Thor!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  When games put DRM in them that requires a server

  And I buy that game

  And then they take away that server

  I want my money back

  Or for them to latch the game so it works

  It’s not fucking hard to figure out

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the Fediverse stalling?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “What the fuck is this paragraph of ranting nonsense?”

  “Oh, it’s an ad for piefed “

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just keep typing, wage slaves⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Obviously it’s been reposted

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reevaluating my password management⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Self hosting a password manager is great, but be sure to read up on keeping it secure, and don’t store anything important in it until you have working, tested backup solution. And re-test it frequently in a non-destructive way.

  If you lose your password storage to a disk failure or something, you’re gonna be hurting for a while.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You've got to stick up for the little guy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nintendo never told third world mothers that their own breastmilk was dangerous for their children. Nintendo never funded paramilitary groups to protect their hold over slave labor.

  Nintendo did not produce MULTIPLE Riddick movies

  They are testing the limitations of patent law as we speak? In a case that’s not getting nearly the attention it should for the precedent it could set
