MeanEYE , to showerthoughts in Why the fuck do cars still have analog speedometers? Surely digital ones would be more accurate and much easier to read without looking away from the road for too long.
@MeanEYE@lemmy.world avatar

Most stuff is digital these days. Speed is measured by counting number of impulses (wheel rotations) per unit of time, then displayed analogly on dash board using servos and similar. There are many reasons behind this. Some of them are legacy and people are simply use to them. Other is that analog you don’t really have to look at them to read them. Just a mere positioning is enough to tell you approximate values. There are aesthetics involved as well. Readability in strong light. Etc.

You need to add a tablet in kvm for the mouse input. It’ll do exactly what you want by using the location of the local mouse

Technically, if you just pay off 0% interest loan just because you can, you’re losing money(interest).

It is not only needless but is also an actually worse financial decision.

Put 10k here. Make a free $1200 over those three years.

4% annual return is stable but current savings rates are higher

Serinus ,

Where are savings rates higher than 4%?

utiandtheblowfish ,

High yield savings accounts are over 4% but their rates fluctuate. I put money in at Ally a few months ago when they were near 3%.

It’s a nice way to park some cash that is easy to get in an emergency.

I bonds are way down since a year ago. You can get over 5% on CDs now

Would you also consider vger.app (voyager) at m.endlesstalk.org for mobile as lemmy.world have?

It seems to be fairly easy to get up and running, so when I have the time, sure.

    I said “lemmygrad.ml”, but I appreciate that this post probably did not call for a snarky reply so I suppose the removal is fair.

    ReakDuck , to linux in [solved] How to set up absolute mouse movement mode on KVM

    I think that KVM has nothing to do with absolute or flat mouse input, the OS is deciding afaik

    tubbadu OP ,

    uhm so the setting should be inside the OS installed in the VM?

    ReakDuck ,

    I assume, yes. Otherwise it wouldn’t make sense. KVM just passes the mouse as is afaik. I am no expert but I just my daily life logic to it. Maybe i am completely wrong.

    The only use case I have for KVM Qemu is to passthrough my whole USB PCI from mainboard and GPU and play VR on a VM.

    tubbadu OP ,

    enabling the passthrough of the USB mouse fixed my problem! thanks!

    ReakDuck ,

    Well, then maybe it was some weird mouse emulation thing. Now I wonder if it actually has flat/adaptive mode or if its just too laggy/weird.

    maegul , to asklemmy in Why haven't multi-communities been added to Lemmy?
    @maegul@lemmy.ml avatar

    The answer to such questions is almost always “Because someone hasn’t done it yet”.

    As others have mentioned, this platform has grown drastically over the past month and so the devs are somewhat preoccupied with what they’ve prioritised for the platform as a whole. This feature though is on the radar, as others have said.

    A quick fix that I actually think would help be just in the UI, where the user can group the communities they’re subscribed to into what ever groups they like, so that it becomes easier to browse through communities individually by topic.

    Cannot find kbin.social instances - how do I join those from endlesstalk?

    lemmy OP ,
    @lemmy@endlesstalk.org avatar

    Hmm. I can see kbin.social instances and have subscribed to some of them

    Have you tried searching via the url of the kbin magazone/community in endlesstalk.org? or just searching for them without @?

    Temperche ,

    Can you see [email protected] ? I can’t, no matter how I search.

    lemmy OP ,
    @lemmy@endlesstalk.org avatar

    If I use the url(kbin.social/m/RedditMigration) on endlesstalk.org, I can find it.

    Temperche ,

    Where do you use it? In the search field, it doesn’t seem to work.

    lemmy OP ,
    @lemmy@endlesstalk.org avatar

    Ah, if I logged out, then I’m unable to get it, when I search via url, but I can see it, if I just search for RedditMigration and limit the type to Communities

    lemmy OP ,
    @lemmy@endlesstalk.org avatar

    Yeah, I think there is something wrong with the kbin federation. I have been subscribed to @RedditMigration for some time, but there isn’t any content on endlesstalk.org.

    I will look into it.

    lackthought ,
    @lackthought@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

    there are definitely federation issues with kbin.social

    I’m on lemmy.sdf.org and my subscriptions to kbin magazines are extremely flaky and sometimes don’t work at all

    I’ve tried posting about it on both my lemmy community and kbinmeta on kbin.social but never got much traction on why federation is hit-or-miss

    The action you should take depends on your goal. If you’re aiming to make the best financial decision, you might calculate whether it would be more beneficial to invest $12.5k now, or to invest $350 each month instead. The latter would be possible if you decided to pay off the loan. However, if your decision is about feeling better, then paying off the loan seems to be the only option that would satisfy you. If you’re from the US, having a loan might be necessary to get future loans.
