What a useless article about a short video of a guy AI talking over a video they didn’t record

Dead Muslims can’t make terrorist attacks

i love how it wasnt a catchy book, romance, or whatever that peaked your interest.

It was the National Electric Code.

The national electric fucking code.

this is autism in full effect.

- Someone who is reading “Excuse me, sir, would. you like to buy a kilo of isopropyl bromide?”, the biography of a man who started a chemical company. I know, thrilling.

Damn, made me chuckle

Anyways, going by

, i have had multiple people (2, which is not a lot but it’s weird it happened more then once) say that they couldnt solder just to discover that they were using their soldering iron wrong.

When you press the solder against the iron’s tip, it should get wicked by the tip, and remain there until you press it on some wire/component leads.

If the solder beads up and slips away from the iron, or beads up and forms a blob at the end of the solder wire, it’s oxidised and you probably need to get a new tip. It needs to be shiny and metallic.

The tip needs to be regularely cleaned while soldering by brushing it on a wet sponge, and never let the iron cool down without some solder on the tip to prevent oxidation.

also, FLUX FLUX FLUX

wasnt the whole point to be able to solder one yourself?

founder is a bit hard to bear sometimes. He banned me from all channels over a the tiniest little argument and so I can’t interact with and get any support from the community

i have seen the harsh takes on the valetudo website but thought it was a joke, what happened to deserve that

will try over the next days, tysm!

That’s probably a problem with your router

isp provided router

receiving hardware

tried multiple devices, both wireless and wired, even with an name brand external wireless antenna

Especially if you’re in an area with a lot of other wifi signals or radio frequency interference

Middle of nowhere countryside.

If it’s an ISP provided router you could probably ask for them to look at it

Tried, they gave me the Deny, defend, depose treatment

i hate apple with a burning passion but at least their cable lasted more then 3 years without wearing the port down to where you need to angle the connector with force or it doesnt charge

i hate mtp until i see the 6 hours remaining on a wireless transfer and then i love mtp

take manufacturer’s claims

divide by 10

half it

half it again

you now have the max your device will ever reach, with the usual speeds being ~60% of that

(my isp says 300mbps, divide by 10, half, half, 7,5mbps, which i think i never saw since the speeds are actually from 3 to 4)

yup!

People with a new phone every 2/3 years never need to use angled charger treatment, which i find i need to do too often these days

that being said, there is no standard indicator for ports, chargers, and cables to signify what charging speed they support.

Sure, usb c can technically do 240W, but most people use crappy chinese cables which will do max 5W and blame it on the usb specification

I’m just a little disgruntled because I like treating my Pi’s as headless servers, often with a single purpose, and I don’t want to have to erase the SD cards to upgrade versions.

sounds like a dietpi usecase! (sorry for the shilling, i just really like the project)

but hey, if debian works don’t touch it

I kinda understood half of the things you said, but i run DietPi on mine.

It has 64-bit support, you can update the os without resetting everything, still based on the original kernels for the closed source optimizations, but removes all the clunky and slow parts, leaving a very lightweight and fast os.

Plus, for newbies (like me) it has a decent built-in installer for various software with minimal ulterior setup required.

So they make the internet worse for poor people? I could get through 20k in a second, but someone with just an old laptop would take a few minutes, no?

i mean, kinda? you are absolutely right that someone with an old pc might need to wait a few extra seconds, but the speed is ultimately throttled by the browser

adding to this, some sites set the difficulty way higher then others, nerdvpn’s invidious and redlib instances take about 5 seconds and some ~20k hashes, while privacyredirect’s inatances are almost instant with less then 50 hashes each time

i meant that whatever you show them, if you’re white they’re gonna say it’s a real account, if you’re black you’re gonna get accused of showing them a fake second account

like they’ll belive that
