I think Tyson had the power in his arms to do some damage but he just did not have the speed to get in at all after 2 rounds. And he’d leave himself open if he tried.

Yes but slowly and using language they’re familiar with. Lure them into it
- Comment on People born after 2000 have never seen the cosmic microwave background on their TV set. 3 days ago:
CRTs were fairly common until the early-mid 10s
I’d say born after 2008ish aren’t likely to be familiar with them, except seeing the odd one in their grandparents bedroom

Sometimes it’s not like this though.
Sometimes it’s the solution that’s complicated

My pict-rs bucket is 409GB which is surprising since I’m pretty sure .zip is significantly larger than thelemmy.club

Is zypper ref not required first I was never super clear on that
- Comment on Grr Windows 2 weeks ago:
Yeah and also you can just kinda do it in the background without much concern about it eating all your CPU or taking forever like Windows Updates does.
Also won’t take several minutes when you shutdown to do the “Preparing Updates… Don’t shut off your PC” like Windows.

1st that’s kinda weird
But also there actually is quite a bit of it already. Go to your user settings and make sure you have “Show explicit content (NSFW)” enabled.
There’s whole instances for this stuff like lemmynsfw.com. I see it in my feed (blurred, so I can use Lemmy at work lol) a lot especially if you scroll for a bit.

Agh Plex always runs me the wrong way… It acts like closed source software as much as is possible. Went with Jellyfin and it’s been great. But haven’t tried music.
- Comment on YSK that United has significantly escalated their war against basic economy passengers 3 weeks ago:
It might could be worth it if you’re doing a shorter flight and just don’t have baggage but that’s rare.
- Comment on Half as Hot 3 weeks ago:
Let’s say the summer average is 30⁰C or 303.15 Kelvin
The absolute coldest possible temperature is -273.15⁰C, or 0K.
Halfway between absolute zero and 30⁰C/303.15K is somewhere around -121⁰C/152K
So if it were half as hot in the summer, it would be colder than ever recorded on earth.

I think in this case prohibition should work fine…
The alternative is just… Get a non-disposable one and learn a bit of maintenance. Jesus.
- Comment on AMD’s Ryzen 9000X3D processors, with their fancy-pants cache, are launching November 7th 3 weeks ago:
The 9950X3D will likely be one of the best gaming CPUs around by raw numbers but some early leaks are showing it probably isn’t going to be worth the money over current chips like the 7800X3D - but wait for reviews obviously
- Comment on AMD’s Ryzen 9000X3D processors, with their fancy-pants cache, are launching November 7th 3 weeks ago:
Just got a 5700X3D as a final upgrade to my AM4 board. Great upgrade. Wanted a 5800X3D but they’re almost impossible to find so the 5700X3D was only 5% lower in most scores and only about $200. Also got two more 8GB sticks of RAM and a 7800XT
That should get me through this decade I think

Meanwhile Verizon has already been unlocking after 6 months
- Comment on I'm tired, boss. 3 weeks ago:
I thought people in this thread were talking about not scrubbing the inside of the machine walls and I could relate.
This comment made me realize people meant they just don’t clean the basket… What the fuck
Like, of I make something that doesn’t leave any significant residue I might dump the crumbs and use it again but even a little oil and it’s getting cleaned.
- Comment on Microsoft will end Windows 10 support in exactly one year 4 weeks ago:
I think for most users it should be, and getting better all the time.
Just if you play games with anticheat, or use something just incompatible like Adobe products.

I would just do a minimal reinstall if you had used this as a personal computer OS before
And also take the battery out

- Comment on All Of Apple’s Foldable iPhone Prototypes Have Visible Creases, Which May Explain The Company’s Apprehension Towards A Launch 1 month ago:
The screens are pretty fragile, however they’re protected when folded. Just don’t drop them onto anything while open…
Other than that they’re surprisingly robust. I’ve had 2 Moto Razr models and a Samsung Z Fold. First Razr did break the screen by leaving it open in a stupidly precarious position and it hit a piece of metal below directly on the folding screen when it fell. But day to day use I never worried about it.

Thanks I’ll warp back a few years and tell myself that.
- Comment on 'An affront to dignity': The system allowing people with disability to be paid $6 an hour 1 month ago:
Nah just find a registrar that doesn’t charge beyond ICANN fees. Should be ~$12 per year or so for .com. Won’t get any crazy introductory rates but you won’t get rate hiked down the road either. Cloudflare does this. Porkbun too and actually it looks like they are doing a promo of $7 for the first year right now.
Looking at it .lol just goes for $23 in general, which iirc is set by the central registry of each tld

I dunno, I use a mirror tile heated to 60⁰C. TPU and PLA seem to stick just fine. Have you tuned your first layer height?
I also give it a good scrub with isopropyl between prints.
