The Aarke one looks incredible, although it isn’t cheap.

It’s strictly for water though (no sweet stuff like cocktails or juice). I think Breville (called Sage in the UK because there’s another brand also called Breville) sells another fancy one that does sweet stuff too.

Scaling factors for resolution are over the number of pixels, 4k isn’t called that because it has 16 times more pixels.

Anyway, semantics. This comment discredits the reviewer in this sense.

As far as the display, it’s beautiful.

Coming from someone who sees no problem in downscaling by 2.5 the resolution instead of changing dpi, this means absolutely nothing.

Oh no! They’re using an emulator! I choose you NINTENDO! Use “Sue for copyright”!

Unfortunately, it’s not very effective (Anthropic’s type is “AI Company”).

What is the provider linked to pm.me?

Topic/question that I don’t see commented on often: how are you guys finding the telling other people (verbally, out loud) about your email?

I feel I could tell someone “at proton dot com” without having to spell it but in the UK I feel any way I try to pronounce tuta is going to result in me having to say “at tango uniform tango alpha dot com” or otherwise people will misunderstand and send me about a million messages at tutta, toota, Tuter, twitter, doota, or even more creative spellings.

I can keep habits until I travel. 8 months of gym, then go on holiday for a long weekend, and forget that the gym ever existed.

It seems meds have been preventing this and the gym habit has persisted through a couple of trips. But I’m fairly new to meds, so we’ll see how long I can keep this up…

I’ve only started using Storygraph recently (which I also like) but I’d consider a federated alternative. Does anybody know whether its possible to migrate the history from SG to Bookwyrm?

Isn’t Ubuntu The most used distribution? How come it isn’t in your top three? Not judging, just wondering. It feels to me it’s reasonably user friendly and its large user base makes it the easiest to find support online for if you’re a Linux newbie.

Excellent in which specific sense? Most competitors offer better everything (performance, range, build quality) for a given price point.

The fact that Tesla has managed to make EVs that consistently rank below most ICE brands in terms of reliability is mind blowing.

In world war IV, I’d say.

My mom (78) got a new kindle a couple years ago, after the previous one lasting over 10 years.

She’s not been using it now because “it’s not okay” anymore. After a lot of poking and prodding remotely (we live in different countries) to get to understand what the issue was for the kindle to “not be okay”, I managed to get her to tell me that “the screen is blank”. I said I’d check it soon after when I went to her place.

When I travelled there, not long after, I checked the kindle, turned on the screen, and it was blank. Because she’d finished a book and the last page was blank. All worked fine.

I have told her, but she refuses to use the kindle because “it’s not okay”.

In a separate conversation I offered to give my sister my really old kindle as hers is actually broken. My mom heard that and said she wanted it because hers is… Not okay.

The insistence and willful ignoring of what I said is the most infuriating part.

Maybe a bit of a silly comment, but can you install it through proton/wine?

Since I’ve started using Linux as a gaming platform I’ve gotten to believe it can run anything you want as long as it doesn’t have a kernel level anticheat. Maybe I’m extrapolating my learnings to something they can’t be applied to…

Edit: on the old-lemmy there’s a thread of people who report success with Bottles: https://www.reddit.com/r/AffinityPhoto/comments/1dxednv/affinity_photo_finally_works_on_linux_2024/

It’s not quite EU, and I’m not saying it’s necessarily better than buying from the US, but there are many non-US tech brands with nice products if you’re okay with buying from Korea/Japan/Taiwan/China. Samsung, LG, Sony, ASUS and Xiaomi, for example.

Reuters?? An international news organisation that operates in more than 150 countries and that reports with almost emotionless reporting just based on facts? They are making up lies for hatred points? Are you also going to try to convince us they employ reptilians?

Over the past 5 years, I’ve installed ubuntu about 30 times on different computers. Not once has an install on an SSD taken me more than an hour, with it typically taking me 30 minutes or less except for rare occasions where I’ve messed something up.

PREGANANANT

It’s the other way around, an Apple Silicon Mac would be able to run an intel binary through Rosetta (I think there’s almost no exceptions at this point). It’s intel macs that can’t run Arm specific binaries.

I thought a few days ago that my “new” laptop (M2 Pro MBP) is now almost 2 years old. The damn thing still feels new.

I really dislike Apple but the Apple Silicon processors are so worth it to me. The performance-battery life combination is ridiculously good.

Op, I’ll try to remember to comment here about what the doc/nurse says tomorrow after that review.
