I think we should maintain a state where this video isn’t available to watch since we’ve always done things this way.

If anyone ever deserved a tribute song by They Might Be Giants, it’s this lady.

Thanks!

Contentedness ,

I know facts about the sun from They Might Be Giants!

Brad ,

I know which city used to be Constantinople, thanks to They Might Be Giants!

obviouspornalt ,

That’s nobody’s business but the Turks.

derbis ,

Wait did they do one?

perishthethought ,

No, not yet, but they should!

IrritableOcelot , in [Gamers Nexus] This Case is a Disaster | Tryx LUCA L70 Review

For a $240 case, no review is going to make me want to buy it, but god is it funny to watch Steve’s frustration with it.

theangriestbird ,

You must not build SFF PCs. $150-$200 is pretty standard in that space, though there are definitely some great budget ITX cases.

DdCno1 ,

This doesn’t look like small form factor to me, if that’s what SFF stands for.

theangriestbird ,

Oh no, this one isn’t. Just saying that it’s common in that niche space. I personally spent about $200 for my case, and the price was not my fave but the case is super portable and I love that about it.

DdCno1 ,

Consider looking into 3D-printed cases, if you have access to a printer or thought about getting one. Lots of nice small designs out there. For the price of one of your cases, you can get an excellent printer already.

IrritableOcelot ,

I’m guessing that’s a mini-ITX? Yeah I can forgive a case which is highly optimized for small form factor, but this case is if anything the opposite.

Vodulas ,

$240 with no fans. Not that I will need a new case anytime soon, but that is ridiculous for a narrow 011 clone

Some cases are worth it tho, even for 249€ with no fans, eg. the Phanteks NV9. Size, space for radiators and fans, RGB built + controller + addon kit etc.

Vodulas ,

Oh for sure. I just meant this one didn’t do anything different than the 011 and is more expensive. And well…trash quality

This is the stuff people need to remember whenever Congress and other federal politicians make exorbitant promises this fall. What they’re actually going to do is make your lives harder.

Cowabunghole , in Coding whiz had another talent: inappropriate insults • The Register

I’ll save you a click. The story has pretty much nothing to do with the “coding whiz”, just a boring recollection of a guy’s occasional work on a ship. The only reference to the coding whiz’s inappropriate insult was

at work drinks he loudly asked the boss if he was still having an affair with a colleague – in front of the entire office and the boss’s wife, who had come in for the occasion.

What a mediocre story

Off-topic: Are you the huginn developer? 🤩

huginn ,

I am not! I hadn’t heard of it until just now. Very neat project.

No I’m just someone with a particular interest in corvids who feels represented by a god of Thought that is a bird

smeg , in Coding whiz had another talent: inappropriate insults • The Register

That read like a TFTS story with no punch line

The real punch line is the time you wasted along the way.

Areldyb , in LFS: Send emails later, time capsule style

I mostly rely on built-in “scheduled send” features these days, but in the past (and possibly future, can’t remember!) I’ve used Time Cave and been happy with it.

pewgar_seemsimandroid , in Mozilla.Social is Shutting Down

this is not how to achieve independence.

Templa , in Project for people leaving Google Maps.

Does Organic Maps has the social aspect of Google Maps? Maps is the only thing Google I wasn’t able to quit yet, whenever I want to go to a restaurant I NEED to look at the pictures of the food and read reviews. I discovered such amazing gems with it.

IronKrill ,

Unfortunately there are very few open review projects and none that people have tried to actually integrate into one of the OSM apps. It makes me rather disappointed as finding businesses and checking reviews is one of the most common uses I have for Google Maps and yet OSM cannot replace it.

lone_faerie ,

Something like BookWyrm feels like it’d be perfect to adapt to business reviews

sleepybisexual , in What if the panic over teens and tech is totally wrong?

From the perspective of a teen. No shit the panic is wrong. Sure there are flaws in the tech. But those don’t just affect us. Also there has been moral panics on the “new thing” for a while. While it isn’t a true equivalent I think the DND moral panic is a decent comparison. Tech is a tool. If you are going to restrict its use based on potential danger you are not only being restrictive but you are ignoring both larger threats and the root of the problem

I had a very interesting experience watching Network recently, a film from 1976 about the influence of television, and I had a strange realization that TV then was nearly as old as the internet is now. This just feels like a natural point in the history of a communications medium that people begin to think critically about its effect on people and the way we think.

schnurrito OP ,

I remember reading once that in the very first years of the existence of the German Democratic Republic, television was the form of mass media that was most critical of the regime. It just wasn’t as influential yet as newspapers and radio, so they didn’t care about it as much; when it became more popular, it too came more under the control of the communist regime.
