I wonder if the numbers would be higher if there wasn’t so much crossover between Linux users and unwillingness to pay for stuff that can be gotten for free

It was probably sports that made VHS the winner. Porn was on both technologies (and available at local video rental places in Australia at least).

VHS could handle a full gridiron game (but not a cricket match) but Betamax couldn’t.

One could alternatively run GNU hurd, then you also get Debian but also cachè

You can get a good approximation, multiply the pie graph percentages by a plausible population of PornHub users, get plausible numbers for each group, use those numbers to work out plausible numbers for the second graph

Thinkpads are more expensive and far far less user serviceable

Aside from all else, if you have enough solar to consider never using the grid, you’ll want the grid to soak up your excess. My planned solar would be producing excess most winter days (in order to create enough power to charge the car any time of year)

That was supposed to be in regards to Australia? We don’t use coal, but boy do we mine it.

It’s hard for Australia to quit those coal export dollars. We hardly use the stuff ourselves, too expensive to maintain the furnaces compared to solar and wind.

I note that although it was the conservative side that hobbled the mineral resource rent tax, neither side restored that (nor the similar tax on liquid and gas fossil fuels)

My Prusa xl printed tpu perfectly first go on its flex preset.

I have had a PLA print holding my bike light working for about three years so I don’t think that’s a problem

I wouldn’t buy Bambu. Too much of a vertical company. I don’t believe they’re upgradable, I don’t believe they’re hackable, I don’t think they’ll work well with random third party filament

I like Prusa. They are upgradable, they are hackable, they work fine on any filament

I’d go for a Prusa printer, they’re highly maintainable and easy to upgrade. Definitely not Bambu - they’re a closed source shitty company

Nozzle change is easy on new Prusa printers, Prusa have a how to on their website

My Prusa XL 5 tool is printing like a champ. So far I have printed a 2 colour PLA print that took the whole print bed and a flexible (TPU) print for my bike

It hasn’t missed a trick

I love Prusa

I also have an ankermake printer which I bought hoping their colour system would happen, but it never did. I’m tempted to replace it with a Prusa mk4s with their working multiple material unit (MMU) which is already in version 3

And it works with an open source slicer

And their printers have a history of being upgradable

Any printer I get in the future will be a Prusa

What were the best settings on that video?

Feigned is such an uncommon word I’m not surprised to see it spelt like that. I’m all for fixing English spelling, it really is a mess of broken rules

In comparison level 5 self driving would replace 30% of the workforce, and 5% of workers being unemployed is the expected normal background rate

11.7% is hardly anything

Why do you use Lemmy, given the politics of its own source creator? Bit hypocritical.

So you won’t buy the most user maintainable and repairable laptop, that also comes with Linux and probably worth open source firmware in the not too distant future because you don’t like the politics of the owner of an open source project the company supports?

That really feels like cutting off your nose to spite your face
