Unless you want heated water. My bathroom water gets pretty damn cold in the winter, but honestly, you get used to it. I don’t have hot water to my bidet, but I survive

I really can’t imagine jt be that bad. It should just be an occasional ping, unless you want to track on demand. At least that’s how the Apple Find My ecosystem works. If I don’t check a device’s location, it doesn’t ping for hours, but then if I want, I can watch a device in real time (impacting battery of course). I’d imagine google’s implementation will be similar

That’s early adopter pain for you. In Europe there is one standard, and in the US, we’re getting there. Yes it’ll be a pain for a while that people with CCS ports will need to use adapters at NACS chargers and vice versa, but we’re settling on the underlying CCS technology being the standard, so it’ll just be a matter of connector. Much better than the three standards we had very recently (add chademo)

Yeah I like that idea, although I could see it needing to truncate in a lot of cases like super long instance names

Hard to be too upset about this. Everything’s getting more expensive, and I’m assuming music rights holders have been squeezing Spotify more and more. I’d love to go back to music piracy, but having an enormous library available at a moment’s notice is worth the extra dollar to me. I do have a pretty huge collection of video game music since the big N refuses to license their music

You mean when scrolling the main feed? Because it already shows the instance address when you click into a post

Honestly there’s juuuuust enough latency and occasional streaming artifacts that it just got on my nerve. I’m super sensitive to stuff that that. Also my internet generally is good enough, but my actual LAN isn’t great, because I’m too cheap to upgrade my networking equipment. I’ve got gigabit fiber to the house, but I’ve got a rats nest of cat6 through my walls, a bunch of unmanaged switches, and a mesh WiFi setup, some with a wired backhaul, some wireless (because I wasn’t able to get Ethernet to those rooms), so things like game streaming just don’t work that well for me.

Plus like I said, it just feels less wasteful to put my PC where I’ll actually use it. And it’s not like I’ve abandoned my steam deck; I’m just not using it to even try to play big AAA 3D games anymore because I don’t need to

This is basically my plan too (minus the travel). I realized my gaming PC was only used for discord, Spotify, and web browsing since I spend exactly zero minutes per day in my office outside of work hours.

So today I decided tonight move my desktop down to the living room so I can play PC games on the couch (mainly games that don’t run well/look good on deck)

But that leaves me without a discord/spotify/browsing PC (I keep my work and personal usage completely separate), so I’m just going to dock my steam deck to my monitor instead. Upside is much lower power usage too

Feels like a copypasta

It’s also worth mentioning that on launch day, people in Europe were able to access it via VPN (not sure how big of a number of users that was), but they’ve since blocked those users. I’m sure that’s not a massive chunk, but it’s a chunk nonetheless

I’ve already seen number 1 happen. I’ve had a completely unacceptable amount of non-nsfw tagged porn hit my front page being posted to various Lemmy.world communities, all by shitjustworks users. I’m getting pretty close to abandoning the platform myself because I don’t need that shit coming up on my phone when I’m just trying to browse

Edit: that said, I’m not going back to Reddit. I’ll just abandon this type of site altogether and spend more meaningful time with my family and read more books

How about Apico?

That’s exactly what I was doing when I used mine. Used the cardboard box the printer came in, and cracked the garage door with a fan pointed at the printer towards the door

Doesn’t support 4K?

Super mixed opinions about this one. On the one hand, I hate the consolidation, ever approaching monopolies. But on the other hand, Actiblizz management has been so bad for so long, I’m looking forward to them getting out of the way and seeing what can come when people who want to make games get to use their IPs. But also, is there anyone left in blizzard leadership who even cares anymore?

Yeah in the ICE era they have made extremely reliable cars. However it remains to be seen who the reliability king is when it comes to EVs. Toyota’s first attempt has had some pretty major issues (such as the wheels falling off). EVs in general need way less maintenance so it stands to reason some other brand who embraced EVs sooner can become the new reliability king

Makes sense! I wish I knew rust so I could chip in but I don’t think my angular/dotnet skillset will be of much use, and I don’t really have the free time to pick up a new lang

Ooh yeah; the rav prime is a wonderful car. I inquired about getting one back in 2021 and was told there was a two year wait. :/ ended up dipping my toes into the BEV world by leasing a VW ID.4, hated it, ended up selling it, and then begrudgingly bought a Model 3. Absolutely love my car (21k miles in a year with zero issues), but man I really had to hold my nose to pull the trigger on that purchase. I live in a big truck area and man I get a lot of coal rolling, revving, and middle fingers for my car haha

What if you carefully distribute the weight of your laundry evenly? Mine doesn’t have an agitator but whenever I’m loading laundry, I make sure to do it in the shape of a donut, evenly distributed around the drum so that it doesn’t get thrown off

I’d love this to be a built in Lemmy feature. I see their value, but I want to block all of the instances that are just bots reposting Reddit links. There’s never any valuable discussion on those posts, and that’s why I’m here.
