Try that out in Canada though, it’s not going to work out. 15cm of fresh snow with ice underneath and it’s still coming down, while the sidewalks haven’t been cleared yet? Good luck biking to work then…

You have to use transit for about half the year here

I would absolutely show that graph to everyone I know

No, don’t know what it is either

Win XP > vista > win7 > win 10 then

Linux Mint xfce > KDE neon > (aurora)[getaurora.dev]

Tried many distros in between like ubuntu, mint cinnamon, mint mate, debian, and a few others I only vaguely recall

What about the climate impact? You didn’t even address that. That’s the worst part of the AI boom, were already way in the red for climate change, and this is going to accelerate the problem rather than slowing or stopping (let alone reversing it)

No where in my house, that’s for sure… They’re obviously going to tear the place apart and it’s the most obvious place to look for someone so unless I have some sort of secret hidden space I don’t know about, it’s a no go

Even if there’s a secret hideaway in my house, those agents are gunna station people here to wait and see if I show up, so I wouldn’t be able to leave easily either… I’d be trapped

No thanks, I’d rather leave and disappear…

I hate leaf blowers with the passion of 1000 suns.

Everywhere I am there is a guy running a leaf blower. At my house, leaf blowers everywhere all day long. At work, of course, leaf blowers blowing dirt and allergens into the air. It’s such a special noise, it goes through walls and headphones so effectively. They are the most pervasive, annoying things on the planet. I hate...

akwd169 ,

I wouldn’t say I hate them as much as mosquitoes because at least it in the wilderness the ratio of leaf blower dicks goes down (but never zero)

That said, yeah I fucking hate leaf blowers with a furious passion, and they’re everywhere in my city! Regardless of the time, or day, or location in the city, there is at least one leaf blower dick audible!

akwd169 ,

I definitely advocate for now cancelling headphones, especially as someone with really bad misophonia.

Sadly, leaf blowers are one of the most penetrative sounds for active noise cancelling, but it’s still way better than nothing

akwd169 ,

Deep. Dark. Profound.

Hot meme

Lol this is my gaming laptop if I don’t disable Intel Turbo boost

Meanwhile the fans are at like 15%

If I put the fans on full blast manually it sounds like a jet engine taking off

And the temps are still at 90+ and causing throttling lol

Thankfully there’s throttlestop

akwd169 ,

I was referring to my laptop so it’s a bit different from a desktop

However with a desktop usually you have to use the software for your parts to control the fans

For example my GPU is gigabyte so I have to use their app for GPU fan control

My motherboard is MSI so I have to use their software for cpu fan and any case fans I attach to the motherboard

I haven’t looked into it that much so I can’t say for sure but I don’t know of a way to controll all these fans from one place (unless they’re allt he same brand)

Lmao it’s the first sentence of the video

Sorry I don’t have time to watch the whole thing and didn’t check it out beforehand

That’s cool I hope it works

akwd169 ,

I had a similar time with piped not working reliably, I prefer invidious, specifically iv.ggtyler.dev has pretty much always worked for me

Anyways, It’s really easy to just swap for another instance or whatever

OP link is

piped.video/watch?v=YnSv8ylLfPw

Just take everything after the domain and TLD

(everything after “piped.video”)

And slap it on the end of another instances domain and TLD

(For example iv.ggtyler.dev)

End result:

iv.ggtyler.dev/watch?v=YnSv8ylLfPw

It even works with YouTube:

youtube.com/watch?v=YnSv8ylLfPw

Check out my other comment on this thread for a quick breakdown of YouTube/piped/invidious/etc links

You can also just put the link into 12ft.io

I created a board game alternative for evil people (lemmy.today)

Guys, I have something to brag about. After almost a year of hard learning, I finally created my first mobile game! Storiado is a board game alternative that will make you wonder what’s wrong with your friends. Play by answering simple questions, mix all the answers, and generate the most twisted story you’ve ever read. And...

akwd169 ,

Wow I was so excited to try this out until I saw the absurd level of permissions you require

I immediately lost interest

I find it very disconcerting that you have no response to other comments asking what your board game app could possibly need to use my fingerprints and other biometrics for

akwd169 ,

de-google, de-m$, de-crapple

Can you link to those lists please?

Oh my god, the signature with the cock and balls in it 🤣

KDE neon is not exactly stable for daily driving, I’d suggest switching to another distro that’s not meant for testing recent KDE stuff

Can you explain those a bit more to me? I really like KDE neon so I’ve been using it as my main Linux distro…

I have never heard that it’s for the use case you mentioned

Source on the PFAS?

akwd169 ,

Thanks!

Jesus, as if PFAS aren’t prevalent enough, let’s just suck them up through a tube straight into our faces!

I will be foregoing straws for sure

Does any language have a word for mixing a beverage by pouring from one vessel into another?

I don’t mean something like “pour” or “mix” in the English language. The word should capture the idea of pouring from one vessel into another with the goal of going from a semi-heterogenous solution to a mostly-homogeneous solution....

akwd169 ,

Ah you mean the good old turbulent transfer!

(I just made that up)

akwd169 ,

It’s not a joke when people say most people only read the headline then go straight to the comments to broadcast their opinions on the matter

The public isn’t interested at all

Choose an amount of time to sleep, sleep right away the whole time, wake up immediately after and actually rested

Just how the f*CK did Nintendo developed tears of the kingdom?

There are so many things being tracked all the time in the game for puzzles and the power arm. Yet despites literally tracking sunshadows for some puzzle completion for example it runs almost smoothly with (in my 170h) no crashes. On a 6 yo portable console??...

akwd169 ,

Can you share your experience with how you got it to run so smoothly?

I’ll have the gabagool

I’m sorry?

If saturated fat is the most unhealthy part of cooking oils, then why don't we remove it?

I noticed that almost all types of cooking oil (vegetable oil, olive oil, peanut oil, etc) contain some saturated fat. Since saturated fat is known to be a contributor to heart disease, then could you simply remove the saturated fats from the oil to make it healthier?

akwd169 ,

To summarize:

Trans fat is the bad one and is even banned in many countries including the USA. It is formed as a byproduct when making many processed and fast foods.

You should get less than 2% of your fat calories from trans fat - preferably you should avoid them at all costs.

Saturated fat isn’t as bad as trans but it’s still not beneficial, the jury may still be out on exactly how bad it is, but it’s not healthy so it should be limited.

You should get less than 10% of your fat calories from saturated fat

Unsaturated fat is healthy, it’s good for you and it’s required in our diet as our bodies need it and can’t make our own.

How about SNL videos on YouTube in Canada? They are all region locked (like every single one) does that mean there’s an exclusive distributor in Canada who isn’t YouTube?

Does homeassistant even charge a subscription?

What should I use to sort my saved comments?

Sometimes I come accross a comment that provides really good insight about a topic, and I want to keep it around. The problem is that the save feature on Lemmy/Reddit just creates one massive pile of hundreds of comments. This defeats the point of saving it because when I later encounter the topic that it related to, I’d still...

akwd169 ,

I use the view comment source option and copy the entire comment, then paste it into a note in Joplin.

That way I can choose which note it goes into (like folders) for organization, and I have control over my saved stuff.

I already lost all my lemmy saved stuff (posts and comments) once a month or two ago and I’ve been using lemmy for less than a year.

So using Joplin keeps them safe too

Nooope ignore me I misremembered the billboard I saw

On January 11 (in Canada) a Paul prequel tv show will be released, perhaps all the interest isbeing generated by marketing for that shows release

akwd169 ,

Omg its a ted prequel tv show I saw a billboard for, not Paul, sorry I have no idea about the Paul movie interest

My mistake!

akwd169 ,

Yeah there’s gunna be a prequel tv show for the ted movie with someone else playing the younger version of mark Wahlbergs character. It’s out January 11. I only saw the billboard on my way to work though.

Not even sure if Seth MacFarlane will still voice ted but hope so otherwise that will be… Not a good show IMO
