CmdrShepard42 , to showerthoughts in Dial Tone

Low-key way of informing everyone that nobody ever calls your landline.

CmdrShepard42 , to piracy in Best way to pirate movies on an old cheap smart TV?

Use a firestick or Roku on the TV. I have a brand new TV and still don’t use the smart features on it because they’re generally not very good compared to one of these streaming sticks.

CmdrShepard42 , to piracy in The Motion Picture Association will work with Congress to start blocking piracy sites in the US

There’s no such thing as a free market unless you’re talking about places like Somolia where there is no government.

CmdrShepard42 , (edited ) to technology in Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th unless you pay extra for ad-free

I honestly thought it wasn’t terrible and would have benefitted from fleshing out the rest of the story. It was definitely a huge departure from the styling of SGU and Atlantis but not horrible on its own.

CmdrShepard42 , to technology in Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th unless you pay extra for ad-free

I can’t agree with #1. The interface is that of Amazon’s regular storefront and it often mixes paid media in with the free stuff or has stupid stuff like seasons 2, 4, & 6 being free while 1, 3, & 5 are paid. Maybe it’s different in the TV apps, but the browser version is atrocious.

CmdrShepard42 , to technology in Reddit Falls Short of Ad Growth Targets Ahead of Likely 2024 IPO

Same except I was at about 10 years. I don’t even find it useful to include “reddit” in my Google searches as many communities are locked down unless you sign in to an account. Can’t say I feel too bad for them.

CmdrShepard42 , to news in Pizza Hut franchises in California lay off all delivery drivers ahead of $20 minimum wage increase

How much business do they expect to get as a pizza delivery company without delivery drivers? I’ll bet this goes really poorly, the franchise shuts down, and then the owner goes on Fox News talking about how “the new wages in Commiefornia forced me out of business!”

CmdrShepard42 , (edited ) to technology in Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

It’s trivial to add electrical sockets in a parking lot with electrical already running through/near it. This is like wondering how on earth electric light bulbs could be installed outside back in 1900. My sister lives in ND and most complexes already have outlets for each parking space for block heaters.

CmdrShepard42 , to technology in Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

EVs are fairly new while ICE vehicles have been produced for 100 years. This is why you can get an ICE for $5k but currently not an EV.

CmdrShepard42 , to technology in Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

So we should continue mining single-use hydrocarbons because disposable vapes exist?

CmdrShepard42 , to technology in Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

But it does mean it isn’t any worse as well. Plus lithium can be recycled.

CmdrShepard42 , to news in 1st Amendment claim struck down in Project Veritas case focused on diary of Biden's daughter

Why even bother stealing a real diary when they always just fabricate a bunch of bullshit with their claims anyway?

CmdrShepard42 , to asklemmy in What is the European equivalent to a Las Vegas Elvis impersonator officiating the marriage heavily inebrieated strangers?

What happens in the alps, stays in the alps.

CmdrShepard42 , to technology in EV Batteries Are Dangerous to Repair. Here’s Why Mechanics Are Doing So Anyway

But what does that number even mean? There are also 278 million vehicles registered in the US and only 233 million registered drivers, so I’m betting a lot of those 16+ year old vehicles aren’t people’s primary mode of transportation. I spend 2-3 hours commuting on the freeway and certainly don’t see 1 in 4 being 16+ years old. My own car is 10 years old now and I would say it’s on the older side of what I typically see.
