• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'OLED and LCD will die out’: A microLED expert explains how the superior TV tech will finally become affordable⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a 34" IPS ultrawide from 2018 that I’ve been using heavily for work and personal use (essentially 14+ hours a day). Since it’s an IPS panel I have no worry about burn-in. And I can keep using it for another 6-7 years without worrying about it.
  With an OLED panel in the same scenario, I’d expect to see some burn in happening within 3 years of getting it.

  Can confirm about the unrest. My friend group is discussing these events daily. And a few of them are actually going out and protesting. I’m likely to join in this summer.

  I’m gonna have to buy a 360 now to jailbreak and rip its games.
  Been doing that for PS1-4, GC, Wii, Wii U, Switch, and OG Xbox. Now it’s time for the 360 to join the ranks.

  My laptop has the slightly refreshed 10870H. I got it in early '21. A 4 year old laptop isn’t new enough for Windows 11.

  And think about the impact the whaling industry had on these environments back in the 1800 and 1900s. Who knows how much damage we did and how many potential animals we caused the extinction of by doing that.

  You can’t just say that and not link a source talking about this mammal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Terrified friends burn to death trapped in Tesla as doors won't open after crash⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  When I first learned that Teslas (and almost all other EV’s) have electronic only doors, I knew this kind of situation would happen.
  I hope this gets laws enacted that force manufacturers to install mechanical latches on all of their vehicles. I know Teslas have manual overrides on their front doors, but the rear doors still have this issue.

  Alternatively, you can contact/ask the people who wrote the paper if they can send you a copy of it. Usually they’ll gladly send it to you for free. I don’t believe they get any of the profit from the journal subscriptions/purchases. So they have no incentive to withhold it from anyone.
