Can relate, when I start infodumping or talking in depth about stuff I enjoy I can see their eyes glaze over and they want to leave.

My computer? Nikkis-pad, cause it always sat ontop of my big ol desk mousepad.

My phone???
Cream daddy of the abyss.

No I will not tell you why

Stardew valleys’ music gets stuck in your head

You can still have high capacity batteries that are removable? The point is that in 5 years that battery will probably only hold 5% of the charge it does now, and it will cost a fuckton more and be way more difficult to replace than just swapping it.

Being removable and having a large capacity are not mutually exclusive

Error messages on android be like “OOPSIE WOOPSIE!!! We maaade abiiig fucky wucky 3: ohhh noooo the isssueee is soo bad we so sooowwyyy!! Pwease, restart the app and if it isn’t fixed then go fuck yowsewf!!!”

I have a pair of relatively cheap yamaha studio monitor headphones that are actually pretty great! ($80) Most headphones will also sound much better when driven properly with an external DAC, especially the higher end ones.

I plan on going to the $200 range next as I’m not too satisfied with the bass of these things, It’s definitely there, but it doesn’t go too loud before it gets distorted on the lower ranges,

Was changing a flat with the kit in my car, the scissor jack it came with was so improperly rated for the load that the bolt bent and the whole thing fell apart, sending the rotor straight into some dirt. Luckily enough nothing got damaged, but it still took 30 minutes to get that poor thing off the ground with a real jack and bricks. It was such a low rider that we had to start from the back and creep forward.

Never using a scissor jack ever again, and I’ve heard enough horror stories from mechanics about not using a jack stand that I will exclusively be using them if the things off the ground for any amount of time.

+1 on that, had a chrysler from a dealership that only lasted a year before it totally shit the bed. I have a subaru forester now that I rebuilt the engine for, and it feels like it will last even after death.

This but for monitors, I bought the drawing tablet I have because I cannot stand color shifting and bad color rep. Same with my monitors, if the colors are so off that one is visibly more blue than the other I get so annoyed I dont use it.

Luckily enough laptops tend to have pretty color-accurate screens thanks to everyone trying to copy apple (i still miss removeable batteries)

Counterpoint, I got addicted to cheap shitty cookies and a 24 pack of the value version fudge stripes for $1.25 started a very horrible 2 month period of eating a pack of those daily

Feel this, I was lucky(?) enough to have a mechanic living at my house who basically told me to fix it myself, he guided me through of course but he emphasized how important it is doing these things on your own.

That guy cannot figure out how youtube works and he’s only 45.

I’d say it all depends on how much you had to use something, while the hurdles in software may seem small to someone experienced. those who are first trekking through see it as a huge wall

Threat Level Midnigt*

Some of the conservative psychopaths are so adamant against them because they are “too big”, or think they make noise? Like do these idiots think that the turbines make wind???

Artemis is getting its public beta soon, so an apollo esc app with kbins microblog and lemmy support makes it worthwhile to stick around

That?

There’s also a lot of younger techies on the board cause if you even got remotely deep enough you’d have to learn how to use those user board websites to solve your extremely specific problems.

No matter how hard you try, you’ll never be more famous than cheese

A Rick and Morty Hollow Knight, I don’t even know how that could work

I believe there’s some sort of ‘soft’ filter in place since there were tons of complaints about seeing NSFW posts on the front page. Should be worked out soonish

edit : NSFW shows up properly now
