Haha I came here to insult the Samsung keyboard but you’ve already done my job

atocci ,

Schools have lists of approved models for standardized test taking. If students (the largest market) can’t use your calculator, making one is probably not going to be profitable.

Definitely not long enough for me to sit on the couch and play in the living room. I had to get a bluetooth adapter for that.

Any chance they move to the fediverse?

It’s totally possible to do without the suite! With my free Gmail account and my domain registered through cloudflare, I have a custom email address for just the cost of the domain. I have the custom email set as an alias in Gmail, and Cloudflare does routing.

It was just a packaging thing, supposed to keep the ice cream from melting down your hand while you held it on a stick. As you ate, you’d slide the tube down and push more ice cream out of the top.

I don’t know how far things have come since the aptly named Acer AH101-D8EY, but that was the last time I tried to be “productive” in VR and it was absolutely not working.

Does this statistic account for Hannah Montana Linux?

atocci ,

Do they have a case here? Are they entitled to have that money returned if they paid it out already?

atocci ,

IIRC, these things exist to exploit a legal loophole around vehicle registration in Japan as well. Safety is not the highest concern lol

atocci ,

Some of these are pretty funny though

atocci ,

Yeah sharing fun clips or a screenshot from a game you’re playing seems as valid as posting any other video or picture you’ve taken to social media.

They go to cloud storage for 90 days. You can then save it locally from the Xbox website or app.

I think I’ve mentioned the HDR issue in every comment I’ve made about my attempts to daily drive Linux, but I’ve never seen anyone get mad about it. It’s also not the make it or break it issue that’s keeping me from switching full-time though.

What do their TVs run on now if they aren’t updating Tizen anymore?

Apple is bringing RCS to the iPhone in iOS 18 | The new standard will replace SMS as the default communication protocol between Android and iOS devices (www.theverge.com)

The long-awaited day is here: Apple has announced that its Messages app will support RCS in iOS 18. The move comes after years of taunting, cajoling, and finally, some regulatory scrutiny from the EU....

atocci ,

Sure, but we all know what the real reason is…

atocci , (edited )

This is exactly what I’m expecting. The company of “buy your mom an iPhone” isn’t going to be aiming for maximum interoperability.

atocci ,

I absolutely agree on that. It should be clear to the user what protocol is being used, but that isn’t Apple’s goal. If that was the case, the bubble for RCS messages would be something other than green since green currently indicates SMS. The way they’re doing it, making RCS bubbles green too won’t do anything to tell you what protocol you’re using, but it will specifically reveal you aren’t using iMessage, and continuing that in-group mentality is the goal.

I don’t know enough about the Mediterranean climate to know if this was a bad idea, but it sounds like they didn’t either

atocci ,

I’m sure the gas companies appreciate the extra business.

The last time was the bottomless pit supervisor, and that was written by AI

This one from the original viral Twitter thread of AI generated greentexts. It is, somehow, a masterpiece of comedic timing and one of the funniest greentexts I’ve read.

I set up a second SSD with Bazzite for dual booting, but it’s not practical for me to use as a daily driver yet. I have a Nvidia GPU, and the drivers just aren’t up to par with their Windows counterparts yet. I could tolerate not having HDR, but also not being able to use 2 monitors with different refresh rates at the same time is killing me.

There’s an update in the works that should fix at least the multi-monitor problem, but still no HDR.

atocci ,

That I don’t know, I only have two monitors and they’re totally different sizes so I haven’t looked into it, sorry!

atocci ,

I’m on KDE. It’s quite an odd problem. If I keep them both set to refresh rates below their max, things work fine. However, if both monitors are set to their native refresh rates, the higher refresh rate one goes blank and the lower one starts flickering. If I disable the lower refresh rate monitor, I can set the higher one to it’s max without issue though.

Essentially, when I’m booting into Bazzite, I need to either disable my second monitor or halve my refresh rate or it’s unusable.

atocci ,

Pop_OS was the first distro I tried before coming to Bazzite. Cosmic sorta worked, but was overall worse… No flickering there, but eventually, a few minutes after logging in, the desktop would freeze. Completely unusable unfortunately. I think Bazzite is fedora based iirc? I don’t know, this is my first attempt at anything beyond putting Ubuntu on old laptops.

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy’s massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It’s been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let’s say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they’re what’s colloquially referred to...

atocci ,

You bought someone else’s Steam account because you didn’t want to make your own? As a form of protest?

atocci ,

Did HL2 come with the account or did you just buy an empty pre-made Steam profile?

Thankfully, these things are at least too low to stay in orbit indefinitely like that

atocci , (edited )

Yeah not to defend Elon or anything, but this post seems pretty misleading now that I’m looking into it. It doesn’t look like they’re failing to deploy satellites at all. They’re up there and communicating with the ground based on every tracking site I’m looking at (including the one linked in the post). I don’t know why the new satellites aren’t being added to the network as soon as they’re launched, but these satellites aren’t dead so it seems way more likely to be a logistical choice rather than literally every satellite launched in the last 3 months immediately failing.

atocci ,

Wild concept, that planning ahead thing is

atocci ,

What does “deployed” mean in this context, then?

atocci ,

The fact that they’ve been launching satellites for months? Here’s a Starlink satellite that launched last week I guess. You can search for Starlink in the catalog there and see tons of others in orbit as well from launches just over the past few weeks.Wikipedia also graphs all the Falcon 9 launch outcomes and it looks like they haven’t had a failure to deploy a satellite to orbit since 2016?

Can you back up the claim that these satellites are failing before they’ve even been turned on? That seems like something that would be covered pretty extensively.

atocci ,

There aren’t any defense contractors involved in this, it’s a commercial internet service from a for-profit company. They can take as long as they want to activate their satellites as long as they’re still communicating with the ground, which they are.

atocci ,

Fair, bad choice of words on my part. What I was trying to say is that Starlink isn’t a government owned asset, it’s a commercial product. While it has the potential for defense applications, the government has no reason to pressure them to activate satellites faster than SpaceX want to.

atocci ,

I think I have it installed on my Steam Deck

atocci ,

Yeah that’s quite the letdown. I’ve been hoping to upgrade my VR headset from a Quest 2 and I was looking forward to this so I could get away from Meta, but those features were a big part of the appeal of the PS VR2. I don’t own a PS5, so buying a headset that should be able to do all these things but can’t would kinda sting. It seems this was intended as more of a bonus for existing PS VR2 owners rather than an attempt to drive sales to PC-only players. I hope those features do make their way to PC eventually, because HDR on the OLED screen would make this an amazing PC VR headset and I really wanted that. I’m going to have to pass on this headset for now though.

atocci ,

You got me there, it is really frustrating that I have to open Edge if I want to have two tabs open at the same time.

atocci ,

The best monster collecting game continues!

atocci ,

The treasonous Automaton-sympathizing scum…

atocci ,

Yeah, that makes sense now. Shenanigans were clearly going on when they specifically said they were retiring Hydraulic Atlas in the last video.

This one is even creepier than the last. Well done!

This bamboo stalk got snapped almost completely in half during a storm two years ago, and yet it still lives. (lemmy.world)

I can’t figure out how it could possibly be drawing enough nutrients to live, and yet there it is. I’d have chopped it up and dragged it away but now I’m impressed and want to see how long it goes on.

atocci ,

They nerfed the bamboo in New Horizons. In New Leaf for the 3DS, it’s pretty much exactly how you described.
