- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 2 weeks ago:
Yeah my current Windows machine only gets rebooted upon updates, but previously I’ve noted needing to do it more frequently. My work laptop I shut down out of habit because they only supplied me with an 8gb ram device.
When I’m forced to move to Win 11 on my personal PC I’ll move to Linux instead.

We need dimensions from raised bit to not raised bit dammit
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 3 weeks ago:
I have never bought an iPhone or a Mac and I agreed at first that this seems an extra step. But you surely wouldn’t have to flip it over? The device will be raised enough it appears that a finger could slide in the gap and hit that button. But maybe I don’t know shit or have slender fingers or something but feels like it could be operated without flipping.
What am I missing?

Cheers for that. I had other third party apps way back in the day but they lacked some features. Will check it out.

- Comment on Is Telegram really an encrypted messaging app? 2 months ago:
Yeah I mean if you started one. If you went in with a secret chat in the first place then it wouldn’t be an issue. And so it’s one extra click vs. starting a normal chat. I hope it hasn’t inconvenienced you more than it’s taken for all these replies.
- Comment on Microsoft’s controversial Windows Recall feature is coming back in October 2 months ago:
Thanks! My cousin used pop and was a fan tbf. I do like stability but also hoping, as I don’t work on my personal PC, that some instability would revitalise my enjoyment of tinkering. I have become used to the comforts of stability as I’ve aged. Haven’t really played with Linux since the Red Hat 7 days…! I used to use Unix back then for FORTRAN but yeah of late just forgotten everything.

It’s another contender for sure.

Just some performance I’ve seen people get from it and the nvidia bits. Still need to research before I decide though.

I am keeping Win 10 until I can’t safely anymore then Linux may be my next stop. Been looking at CachyOS for gaming.
- Comment on Poor Sega just didn't get the timing right. 4 months ago:
Hey, tbf, I never owned a Dreamcast, just played the games my mate had. 3 nights of drinking at uni, sleeping on his easy chair, it wasn’t ideal. So I’d play all night and he’d wake up with a bunch of unlocked characters lol. He never had Power Stone 2 IIRC. Not my bad!

- Comment on I like this text. In which Lemmy community can I best share it ? Thanks. 6 months ago:
I’ve been a low ranked, terrible Counter-Strike player since 2000. Probably will be until my fingers /eyes / ears stop working. That’s not success. But it is fun. Some stuff you can do “forever” and it be fun. Conversely the point in your post is important.

Don’t do it anymore but driving after bud means more chill and sometimes more paranoia, so generally I drive calmer and more thoughtfully. Alcohol I know impairs, especially with overconfidence and that meant it is a counterproductive no no in my books.

No dammit, we want 3 days off in the current 7 day week cycle. 5 days off a 10 day week works for me. We ask for that, get negotiated down to 4 day weekends and it works.

I always used my indicator when I had a BMW but that’s probably because it was one car I owned after a Nissan and before a Mazda, a Ford and at one point a Duffmobile VW Golf.

I only get 30gb (doubled to 60 due to my isp being in the same group as my mobile provider) but I get 75 country roaming. Been using it in Aus and NZ. Very handy.

In the UK it was where they showed Mr Robot and a few other things on streaming services and channels not usually available here. It introduced me to Halt and Catch Fire and other good stuff. YMMV depending on location of course.
