even as someone that doesn’t work in tech it still happens to me

[scenic charm]

I mean its pretty hard to build a newer android version when the kernel the device shipped with will not work on that version

[celest wasp]

this man single handedly saved my summer

[scenic charm]

so a dev has to wait for someone to make an a15 kernel for example before you can put a15 on it

which the kernel devs said nah

[warm summit]

i don’t understand any of this

but seem complicated

[scenic charm]

I don't either

Fully at least

[warm summit]

my computer knowledge is limited

i use macos at work and at home i almost never use my pc

[scenic charm]

Same but I wanna start working on getting a newer android version on my phone

I probably won't since I cannot fucking stand lineageos maintainers

[warm summit]

well it’s actually cool you can do that with android

i would have kept my iphone x longer if it was possible to do that on ios

[scenic charm]

lmfao your funny

[warm summit]

no fr

i was still using an iphone x 3 months ago lmao

[scenic charm]

Yeah I know your serious but thats not happening

Iphones don't use an semi standard kernel

android does

[warm summit]

well at this point i still needed to upgrade

[scenic charm]

I mean

I main an note9

[warm summit]

like i started to have modem issue and the bluetooth wouldn’t unlock my car anymore

[scenic charm]

and my friend actually has an x too

[warm summit]

it was still pretty usable with a new battery

[scenic charm]

I should replace my battery too

But a new display is more important

[warm summit]

it’s game changer

[scenic charm]

I got an aftermarket display and I regret it

[warm summit]

even as someone who work in an office and had his phone plugged 24/24 i still saw a big difference

[scenic charm]

My battery is at 78

I love the yt channel but I hate the mods they are weird they didn't even gave me a chance

[feral island]

Yeah, i opened a tank lmao, sold it right away tho, ez 41 gjc

[pastel yacht]

That's messed up stupid mods

Ztt have bad mods

[feral island]

That sounds like a skill issue

Jk jk, just dont mess with mods

Its very simple. You fool them, they kick back

I didn't I pinged him to ask something and then this stupid ahhh 50 year Old mod

Like that is that serious

[plush crag]

i got an rx 6800 and a cooler master mwe 850w and someone wants to buy for $370 when i said $390

should i stick with my price

bc my friend who knows a lot abt pcs said $400 so i decided to say 390 but he’s not online rn

[pseudo flower]

exaggerated of course

at least if i buy switch 2 i can homebrew my switch 1 safely

[compact zephyr]

sighs For those people complaining aboiut the lack of OLED on the Switch 2 you keep forgetting that a similar specced OLED panel is going to be way more expnsive then the current LCD in the Switch 2. 7.9" 1080p@120HZ VRR HDR OLED is not going to be a cheap add on

You want a $600+ Switch 2 OLED model?

[gilded quest]

Yes

Inflation puts a reasonable price at $399, for $450 it feels bad to be going back to LCD even if it's 120hz

[compact zephyr]

That is without a 50% tarrif applied to the price of the Switch

https://www.polygon.com/nintendo-switch-2/553133/pre-orders-delayed-trump-tariff

Basically meaning you could either Buy a Nvidia GPU or Buy a Switch 2 OLED for the same price

[bleak crow]

☹️😐

I mean it is reasonably priced, consoles are loss leaders.

[tiny halo]

[harsh quartz]

Okay but, and this is the fun part, the switch isn’t the only thing threatened to raise in price by tariffs :)

Everyone seems to be mad at the pricing of the switch 2 because they’re comparing it to the switch 1, which was a POS, 8 years ago, and they’re not comparing it to other devices on the market. Also the game price increase was inevitable, whether Sony, Xbox, or Nintendo did it first is irrelevant

[prime solstice]

I’m surprised it’s not delayed yet in Canada because game stops count down is still going

[gritty canyon]

Taking inflation into consideration switch 1 was launched with 300USD that makes 390USD this year and switch 2 is 450USD so a 60USD increase
Idk if it's bad or not just an observation I made

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, a 60USD increase for the better joycons and screen alone is fine, but it supposedly, supposedly (take it with salt) has better hardware too inside

[pseudo sand]

Niger (🇳🇪) is a country. Although people use this to get around a filter, people could still be chatting about something and for some reason mention the country of Niger. 🇳🇪

[fossil frost]

not sure that popeye himself was, but the cartoons as a whole were super racist

[bright zenith]

I just remembered watching the show a decade ago when I was like 4 and I found his forearms cool and I liked how courageous strong and how dedicated he was to protecting his friends and competing

[fossil frost]

all cartoons from the popeye era were all like that, all racist, all sexist, all homophobic.. it was "ok" back then to do that stuff, without is being tounge in cheek poking fun at those types of people, it was deadly serious

old disney stuff is even worse

[viscid elm]

yeeeaaa true

[bright zenith]

Tbh idrc because I don’t want you to ruin debatably my favorite childhood show

[fossil frost]

you just have to take cultural relativism into account... when they were made in the late 50s/early 60s, through to the 80s, the world was a very different place to what it is now... the jokes they made, were fine at the time, and you have to watch them with the context of the time they were created being taken into account

movies like blazing saddles would NEVER get made today, even though the entire movie is making fun of racist people, the jokes they make, would NEVER get past censoring now

[bright zenith]

Again I don’t want you to ruin one of my favorite childhood tv shows… just stop bro…

[vapid smelt]

And Coca Cola

[fossil frost]

yep.. and tbh, if everyone looked into everything that existed before the 80s, you will find that it used to be super racist, or worse... like, i bank with HSBC... they have a ... colourful history...

[bright zenith]

Yall are ruining my childhood

[fossil frost]

it was my childhood to ruin first 😛

i watched them when i was a kid, back in the 90s, when they were still relatively fresh

[bright zenith]

I said stop

I had a shitty day already

[hot tartan]

Porsche is my favorite example

[fossil frost]

VW too

[harsh quartz]

That’s a good point against your argument. Yes VW made vehicles for funny mustache man but you don’t have to consider that every time you drive a VW

[hot tartan]

Most German car brands, but Porsche just jumped right in. Fanta was created originally was a German coca-cola replacement due to restricted shipping. Said german instead of the right word as I am not aware if it is warshipped

[fossil frost]

my argument IS that it doesnt matter.. and nobody thinks about it

[harsh quartz]

Oh, that’s definitely not what I understood from your argument but aight

[hot tartan]

Simply a reflection of different times and how our views have changed over time

[bleak crow]

Unrelated: I love my GTI

And my SL600

[fossil frost]

my entire thing was cultural relativism, you have to look at the past, through the eyes of the past, not with modern eyes.. and that no matter what company or thing you look at, if it existed long enough, will be problematic, so it just doesnt matter

[fossil frost]

i just found out that Ford have done a recall on my car,... based on the letter i got, it seems that instead of a drivers airbag, they accidentally installed a landmine

[harsh quartz]

Clwymore*

[bleak crow]

Oh no… what car?

[bright zenith]

First I fumbled with my crush then i apologized: and I’m sure I fumbled with that because I communicate like an old Man, one of my friends hates me now because responded negatively to him calling me fat and ugly and calling my crush “chopped” and I said his girlfriend looked anorexic and is a bitch (she is) so he said “how dare you claim she has a medical condition like anorexia” like bro you say 24/7 that i have diabetes and im morbidly obese… those both are medical conditions just as bad if not worse then Anorexia, and because of that my other friends hate me he gave me a death glare for 80 damn minutes, and now after i get off this damn bus I have to hear lectures from my dad about not take modern algebra in 9th fucking grade

[fossil frost]

Mondeo Mk5 (fusion mk.. something or another for americans).. "under certain conditions, the airbag will discharge in such a way that will lead to a large amount of metal shrapnel being discharged towards the driver, causing serious injury or death"

[bleak crow]

My GTI

[vapid smelt]

Fanta was made in WW2 by Germans

[bleak crow]

Uh oh… yeah probably good to get that in soon lol

[bleak crow]

I do like the V12 but it is not the most reliable car

[fossil frost]

apparently the manufacturer of the airbag component knew about it about 10 years ago, and hid it, and then fought against disclosure for years.. its only just got to the point where a recall was made mandatory.. its in 100s of different models by many different manufacturers

[bleak crow]

Is this a Takata thing?

[fossil frost]

yeah

[bleak crow]

Yeah

[hot tartan]

Nice

[bleak crow]

Did your recall really only happen now? In the us it was about a decade ago

And they went out of business in 2017

[vapid smelt]

Dear Mr hor

[fossil frost]

my name is all over my website that is linked in my profile, its not hard to find my name

was more hiding my address and my car details 😄

[vapid smelt]

What year is the car

[fossil frost]

Late 2015

[vapid smelt]

I thought it was only up till 2011

[fossil frost]

ford probably still have boxes and boxes of these sat in warehouses

wouldnt surprise me if they were still going in new cars now, and hoping that it doesnt come to a recall later on

[vapid smelt]

Ask to keep the claymore when they replace it

[harsh quartz]

Takata roomba

[winged spire]

faulty airbags 💀

[harsh quartz]

Still not as bad as the Panto

[winged spire]

pinto?

kaboom

[fossil frost]

the Pinto had fewer faults, and fewer fatalities because of the car, than any of the mainstream tesla models

[winged spire]

Im really glad youre not a statistician

[fossil frost]

im sure its different when you take units sold into account, im just vomiting up something i read 😄

and tbh, my whole job is building software that takes complicated data, doing statistical analysis on it, and spitting out a pretty graph with a table under it

[winged spire]

someone made an article comparing JUSt the cybertruck but they literally included that one dude that blew himself up inside of his cybertruck

making a bomb then blowing yourself up inside of a car does not count as a fataility caused by said car

its one of the most disingenuous articles ive ever read

[fossil frost]

noope, that indicates a fault in the owner

[fossil frost]

the cybertruck HAS just been recalled again though, for panels just... falling off for no reason

because they used what is essentially, superglue, to fasten them on

[lyric sorrel]

Anyone help me looking for a site to buy computer parts from. I need a replacement keyboard for a cyberpower tracer iv gm5mphy

[winged spire]

yeah because elon is an idiot

https://fuelarc.com/evs/its-official-the-cybertruck-is-more-explosive-than-the-ford-pinto/ this is the article, some of the most disingenuous reporting ive literally ever seen

[fossil frost]

tbh, stuff like this, and people finding out that this article is bullshit.. likely comes FROM a campaign funded by someone associated with tesla... because it makes people think "well, if this one is a lie, they must all the a lie" and people will stop believing negative news about tesla... i have no proof, and nothing to base my suspicion on, other than, its something that companies do

[winged spire]

like those just stop oil people

im fully convinced that shit was all paid for by shell or BP

https://tenor.com/view/1-gif-13932762496896035508

[fossil frost]

their message is correct... but their actions are entirely going about it the wrong way, and are essentially domestic terrorism

the slow-down, the protesting.. im fine with that.... destroying art work, gluing themselves to irreplaceable historical items, pitch invasions (which is illegal in its own right) during sporting events, ruining the event for everyone else... no, thats unacceptable and turning people against them

[celest wasp]

blocking 5pm traffic should be a federal crime

[winged spire]

blocking random people's traffic will do nothing but make public support go down

[fossil frost]

why are those cars more special than anyone else? why do they get priority over a shared roadway?

people forget, the road isnt exclusively for cars, its a shared space

the motorway/highway, is exclusive to motor vehicles... but the general roads... are not

[celest wasp]

because walking on a fucking highway is dangerous by itself, let alone siting in the middle of the street

[winged spire]

what

I just got warshipped for soemthing weird lmao

[fossil frost]

they are not on the highway, they are on the road... they are different things

[celest wasp]

you realize J walking exists, right?

[fossil frost]

in the USA, yes. but the USA isnt the only place on the planet

in the UK, there is no such thing, same for much of europe too, and much of the rest of the planet

[vapid smelt]

Why are they using shoes made from oil

[winged spire]

and clothes

and backpacks

increasing oil usage by keepin all those cars idling !

so... completely different topic.. race season starts this week, so i spent the last 4 weeks losing weight, and getting my eating habbits back to normal... dropped from 100kg to 90kg.. and just treated myself to a LARGE kfc... got less than half way through it before i physically could not fit anything in at all 😄

5 weeks ago, i would have finished the box, twice over

[celest wasp]

blocking the road is still illegal

[winged spire]

the brits are gonna abscond you 😭😭😭

[celest wasp]

uk sucks

and forever will

[vapid smelt]

Tell that to all the alien movies

[fossil frost]

thats assuming you dont have a permit.. yes.. but you can get a permit to protest in this way, because they are usually granted, to avoid the appearance of suppressing protests... no idea if just stop oil get any of those permits.. but they do exist

[harsh quartz]

Oh my god I never thought I would see the day. Hell hasth truly frozen over

[winged spire]

you arent good at reading I guess

[celest wasp]

even if thats true, why make others suffer just so people can stop using oil

[vapid smelt]

But Permits involve thought and planning

[winged spire]

I have literally never said ANYTHING supportive of elon

[celest wasp]

that too

[fossil frost]

they do, which is why im not sure just stop oil ever got one

[winged spire]

not ONCE

[vapid smelt]

Was your Tesla new or used

[winged spire]

used

[vapid smelt]

Good good

[winged spire]

Paid 22

[dusky jacinth]

It's also the same with some people having gone before some of our senators, speaking out against the excessive use of plastics.

They think it's a problem and they tend to believe all they have to do is get their voice heard and something might happen to solve it.

Doesn't always, especially with those two particular material types.

[fossil frost]

because thats how they chosen to get their message out... people ignore uncomfortable truths until it affects them directly

[vapid smelt]

While they wear things made of plastics

[dusky jacinth]

Oh, plastics are just used everywhere with very few reliable alternatives often times.

[celest wasp]

going infront of a senator is one thing, but isnt blocking traffic the type of thing you dont want to do?

[harsh quartz]

No, it’s for motor vehicles, at least here. And depending on the road and license classification, it’s not even for all motor vehicles

[vapid smelt]

Could we make electronics without plastic

[fossil frost]

also, if people dont like sitting on traffic... stop contributing to the traffic problem... you ARE the traffic 🙂

[harsh quartz]

Mmmm edible electronics

[celest wasp]

its not that simple when you have a 9-5

[dusky jacinth]

Hell, the senator hearing it he made a point of it even being used for plumbing and such, such as with PVC. He listed off the other options and their cons.

[vapid smelt]

Pcbs made from pasta

[celest wasp]

again its dislogical

yes, it is as simple as that, i have a 9-5 (well, 8-4)... not driven to work in about... 10 years?

It was actually kinda funny he even brought up wood as one of the alts.

[harsh quartz]

And where do you live in relation to your job?

[celest wasp]

you realize 99% of people dont live anywhere close to there job right?

[vapid smelt]

[fossil frost]

i live in the uk, my job is in norway

[celest wasp]

that'd be air traffic still

Aight then you know it’s a bad faith argument

[hot tartan]

How I love being remote

[fossil frost]

my old job was about 10 miles away from where i live, didnt drive to there either

[vapid smelt]

Wonder how well wood pipes would work in flash freezes like in Texas awhile back

[dusky jacinth]

Depends on where you live. Some live in cities or places where you literally are in the same building as their life career.

[winged spire]

theyre burried

[celest wasp]

you also realize 99% of people dont do remote work anymore too, your basically saying if a cat doesnt like water they shouldnt be outside

[fossil frost]

as i just said, my previous job was not remote, and was about 10 miles away, didnt drive there either

Does your guys VPN service do jokes/April fools pranks? Mine does, I clicked Download Data and I got trolled, lol

[celest wasp]

true, but still

[dusky jacinth]

That also depends on the type of job in question and how they choose to operate.

[vapid smelt]

My dad is a plumber at a large hospital made just over 12 years ago and they have to replace a lot of metal pipes from copper to stainless steel

[celest wasp]

bus is still traffic

[winged spire]

most jobs in the world simply arent able to be done online

[dusky jacinth]

Some, even ones like customer service, get away easily with working remotely if they can afford to make that work.

[fossil frost]

running, or cycling, isnt traffic though... and saying "bus is traffic", a bus can hold 60+ people in the space where 3 cars would hold 3 people

so thats a shitty argument... public transport is far more efficient than personal vehicles... and claiming otherwise is disingenuous

[celest wasp]

that would be foot traffic, your arguement isnt mathing here

[sudden gazelle]

sup chat

[dusky jacinth]

Indeed. There's only a few exceptions, while everything else must be in person.

[celest wasp]

thats hella debatable

[winged spire]

public transit is great, I live in bumfucknowhere so ill never get to experience it

[dusky jacinth]

Same.

[fossil frost]

you are complaining about vehicle traffic, and are floundering around to try and say that "everything is traffic, in the exact same way as any other form of transport", which is a complete bullshit argument

[winged spire]

we aint getting large scale public transit for my swamp town of 600

[sudden gazelle]

you sound like a lovely person, dismissing people's arguments senselessly.

[winged spire]

just invent teleporation low key

[fossil frost]

im debating their argument, in the exact same way they debated mine.. its a conversation.. thats how they work

[celest wasp]

thats not even what were talking bout here, were talking about people blocking the highway so no traffic gets past...

[sudden gazelle]

hooray im a clown

[dusky jacinth]

I'm pretty sure even the cross-country public transport at this point is just trains and planes. I haven't even seen an active Greyhound bus in years anywhere I've been, at least yet anyway.

[harsh quartz]

In Europe, yes, not in the US. Even if I WERE to try and use a bus for my daily commute, the closest bus stop to me is 10 miles away minimum, so I’d still have to drive 10 miles, find parking… somewhere, and then ride a bus the rest of the way

[celest wasp]

this^^

and even sometimes in europe

with all the mountains and roads

[winged spire]

public transit in europe also largely does take more time than if you were to just drive, it just means that you can do OTHERSTUFF on the train instead of driving

[sudden gazelle]

can't just win an argument by saying that disagreeing is disingenuous

anyway i have better things to be doing than this

[fossil frost]

then driving is perfect for you, but you are not everyone... the problem is, everyone thinks "im gonna use my car", instead of exploring any alternative... just because its right for you, doesn't mean it should be the default

[winged spire]

I’m very familiar with European public transit

[vapid smelt]

3 car lengths can fit dozens of people , vs 3 cars that normally fit 1 maybe 2 people per car

[celest wasp]

so???? what if someone wants to use their car????

[harsh quartz]

I am the majority of people in rural US

[dusky jacinth]

Well, it can be your default, just not everyone else's in terms of putting it.

[dusky jacinth]

I am amongst those who live in rural US as well.

[harsh quartz]

Bruh half my coworkers literally have a 1hour+ drive to work

[fossil frost]

and this is the way of thinking that leads to traffic.. polution... and people thinking that they need to protest against this sort of thinking...

[vapid smelt]

Fuck that

[dusky jacinth]

That's almost the same time for my mom and I to go into the city next door bi-weekly.

[vapid smelt]

After ww3 we can rebuild our cities to be walkable

[harsh quartz]

It’s 90% remote but when they have to come in, it’s 1 hour+. It’s actually super common around here cause there’s a LOT of really tiny towns with no IT work, and like 2 larger cities that actually hire

[fossil frost]

we wont be around to build anything..

Hi

[winged spire]

WWIII will get rid of all the useless philosophy majors, massive win

[celest wasp]

public transport isnt always the answer too our problems, its like saying that people shouldnt wait in a line to meet kendrick lamar when you can just buy his autograph, but thats not the point

[harsh quartz]

Why the fuck would you wait to meet Kendrick Lamar?

[celest wasp]

wild example but still

[harsh quartz]

Also, terrible analogy

[dusky jacinth]

Though it might as well get rid of everyone else who would be critical to rebuilding the world too.

[vapid smelt]

Naww.

[harsh quartz]

Smite them

No rebuilding, we need to horizon zero dawn this shit

[celest wasp]

terrible but still is the point, you cant just spend your life doing the easiest thing

[winged spire]

I see youve never worked under middle managemnt

[harsh quartz]

…? But driving IS the easiest thing, that doesn’t help your point

[celest wasp]

i mean by his logic... he thinks that public transport is easy

[vapid smelt]

People in line would probably be in a dedicated stadium built for foot traffic

[celest wasp]

true

[fossil frost]

i never said it was easy.. i said that public transport is more efficient at moving more people using less space

[winged spire]

my train from london to wales would have been 130$ each way lmao

UK somehow has worse trains than germany

[harsh quartz]

and where he lives, it is, the US was built by the motor companies, specifically to make it as hard as possible to get anywhere without one of their cars. Entirely different city structures

[dusky jacinth]

I mean, that is true, where it works best anyway.

[celest wasp]

this^^^

[fossil frost]

trains in the UK suck balls.. its cheaper and faster and (actually more efficient and less poluting to fly that sort of distance)

[dusky jacinth]

And then to top it, things are also naturally further apart.

[fossil frost]

thats an example of 1 type of journey, not representitive of all journies

[dusky jacinth]

So you have to do a lot of driving in certain cases.

[vapid smelt]

This isnt efficient to drive my 1.94 kids to school? https://www.statista.com/statistics/718084/average-number-of-own-children-per-family/

[celest wasp]

so why tell a bunch of people that if they dont like traffic, they should just walk?

[dusky jacinth]

MMMmmmmm I mean it's kinda huge for a family of three, no?

[fossil frost]

where did i say that YOU should walk? i think you will find that what i said was... by being on the road, you are part of the traffic

[celest wasp]

yes, but its still at the end of the day going to be cheaper

also, in nyc subway tickets arent cheap

[fossil frost]

where did i say you should walk?

[celest wasp]

which is why people hop the kiosks

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, fuck this thing, full size SUVs need to be nuked out of existence

[celest wasp]

THIIIISSS^^^

[celest wasp]

here

[dusky jacinth]

Try arguing that to all the "closest to a truck, technically also a van" people. I know I won't. Lol.

[fossil frost]

where is that saying you should walk? that was me saying that i personally run or cycle... and that more efficent methods of transport also exist other than cars for moving large numbers of people... i dont see the word "walk" being used there at all

[dusky jacinth]

Honestly, I'd prefer we get the stationwagons/shooting brakes back here in the states as a norm again.

In fact, I'd prefer those over the crossover craze we have here.

[celest wasp]

volvo needs to bring em back, honestly subi has been doing a fair job at hatches and stationwagons, but its not the same

if its gonna be anybody

it needs to be volvo

[fossil frost]

havnt they started using those full height ones now? where they cant be hopped? and people sort of just stopped using the subway all together?

[celest wasp]

not in ny, besides, people in ny will figure out how to break those

[vapid smelt]

But then it won't fall into the EPA light truck loophole

[dusky jacinth]

To be honest, Volvo still does, but really we more need it to be more manufacturers than just them only doing it.

[celest wasp]

true, like i said, subi has slightly been doing good on that front

[fossil frost]

when i was in rome a few years ago, could get to almost anywhere in the city, via the subway or over-ground trams.. for 2 euros, for all day travel... no kiosks, people just paid it, even though there were no gates stopping them... because it was cheaper to pay than it was to deal with the hassle of getting caught and thrown off at the next station

[celest wasp]

yes in rome, europe has better security standards than the west

[fossil frost]

was the same in paris last year too

3 euro in paris though, but still all day travel

[dusky jacinth]

Ya know... I honestly wish there a plug for that. Either that or some shenanigans by pulling a little switcheroo to wagons and hatchbacks instead.

[celest wasp]

yes and those are cities where it would be smarter too use public transportation. but in the uk, us and most other western countries, its expensive asf to take a bus or train, it would be easier to take an uber or cab at that point

(btw i dont live in nyc, my families just from there)

[vapid smelt]

This is a real truck

[celest wasp]

w mans here

[vapid smelt]

Look at that long juicy bed

[celest wasp]

meanwhile the ford ranger and its 4 inch bed:

[fossil frost]

the UK just closed a similar loophole... trucks like the F150, were considered "work vehicles", so if you bought them through a company, or as a self-employed tax payer... you could avoid paying VAT and a substantial amount of the tax... so they could be bought heavily discounted... it costs £110 to set up a company in the UK... which is far less than the 10s of 1000s you save from not paying those taxes... people were buying the dual cab versions and just using them as family cars, never using the truck-ness of the truck...

new law means to qualify, they have to have a certain bed size, and be single cab, with 3 or fewer seats

[vapid smelt]

Dual cab to move all 5 of your workers to the work site with your 5.5 foot bed now with a in bed tool box making it 5 foot or less

[celest wasp]

funny how the ltt staff hasnt said anything for 1-8 years

[fossil frost]

people actually buying work vehicles, buy a ford transit

[vapid smelt]

Jake talked on April fools

[vapid smelt]

But you need a truck for blue collar jobs

[celest wasp]

Are pretending pickup trucks arent good work trucks now?

[bitter harbor]

#off-topic message

[fossil frost]

btw, i posted my same "landmine" joke about my car and its airbag in the owners-club group... this is my favourite comment

[celest wasp]

any chevy, gmc, or dodge truck can clap a ford in terms of reliability

[fossil frost]

no, im just saying that the law that allowed them to be classified as that, was being exploited, and it was recently tightened up, and anyone in the uk who actually buys a work vehicle, usually buys a ford transit anyway

[fossil frost]

ok... i dont really care about those brands, since they are not available here, and if they can outlast these transits that routinely run well over 300k miles, good on them

[celest wasp]

i just realized your talking about the european division of ford, that make actually quality cars. in the us, ford sucks!

[celest wasp]

public chat isnt general? im still talking about ltt technically.

[harsh quartz]

What’s the problem here?

[harsh quartz]

He said mondeo why would he be talking about the US?

[winged spire]

I was waitin to upgrade my phone to the 17

[celest wasp]

they also make the ford transit over here

[winged spire]

but uh.. Dont wanna pay 43% more

do I upgrade to the 16 now

[harsh quartz]

The fuck does the ford transit have to do with the ford mondeo?

[fossil frost]

ive mentioned both

[harsh quartz]

Oh, well either way you specifically said mondeo, that instantly makes it NOT the us

That’s like the Taurus or something here, I don’t remember its name

[celest wasp]

mondero is the focus...

[fossil frost]

the same chassis is used for the fusion, with a different engine and body panels

[fossil frost]

no, the focus, is the focus

[celest wasp]

ment fusion

sorry

[fossil frost]

its also the same chassis in the jaguar xf.. even though ford dont build that

[celest wasp]

ford does own jaguar mate...

which is why the db7 looked stupid

[fossil frost]

DB7 is aston martin

[celest wasp]

ashton was formerly owned by ford

[fossil frost]

just looked now, i always thought it was owned JUST by Tata... turns out its ford too

[harsh quartz]

Fusion, that’s what I was thinking of. I haven’t seen a fusion in years

[bitter harbor]

It’s a link to an Ltt employee commenting

[harsh quartz]

It’s changed hands a lot iirc

[celest wasp]

that would fall under ltt related

[fossil frost]

didnt know that.. never read into it much, aston martin keep that quiet it seems

[harsh quartz]

Jake was literally in here like 3 days ago?

[celest wasp]

someone already said that

[bitter harbor]

This is quite literally the link I sent

[celest wasp]

thats talking about yt members

if mods really cared we would be talking about cars

[vapid smelt]

Didn't they move apple factories to India

[celest wasp]

man these tariffs are (a pain in the) ass

[winged spire]

not entirely

[fossil frost]

since the majority of the components are created in Taiwan or china first, and then shipped to India, "substantial change" needs to be made to the components to drop those previous countries tariffs, instead of incurring BOTH sets of tariffs

[winged spire]

some compoants are made in other countries, final production is still largely in china

When I was an AASP I watched in real time as more and more of our parts had made in india or malaysia on them

[fossil frost]

and apple would need to argue that what is effectively just gluing those components together is a "substantial change" to them, to avoid having both sets of tariffs imposed

[celest wasp]

one more thing, computer chip metals come from a tariffed country

cambodia

[winged spire]

virtually every country that exports anything is now heavily tarrifed

[vapid smelt]

https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/trump-administration-exempts-computer-chips-and-copper-from-sweeping-tariffs-but-only-for-now-report-says-chip-tariffs-coming-later oh fun

[fossil frost]

turning the metal into a component, is a "substantial change", so would lose the tariff

[celest wasp]

feels like we live in a mafia

[winged spire]

cambodia has like the 3rd highest tarrifs

49% lmao

[vapid smelt]

[fossil frost]

"kernel" can mean a lot of things, you would be better explaining some more

[harsh quartz]

Or, perhaps.. Google?

[fossil frost]

that isnt explaining what you are asking

its like 28 A and B

the scale of those fabs is actually insane

the buildings are so big they have fog lmao

[fossil frost]

the compiled binaries? no.. if you had the full source tree for both... it depends what you are trying to do... while technically possible, its not gonna be easy to do what someone is trying to do... WSL took years just to make linux a driver within windows... but you still havnt said what it is you are trying to achieve, so i couldnt say

no

thats the simple version, without knowing anything about what you are doing, since you havnt explained anything at all about what you are trying to do, you just keep repeating the same thing... leading me to believe you dont understand it yourself... im just gonna say no. no its not possible to do what you are looking to do

its the "you dont understand what you are doing" type of impossible

[long briar]

it's the "I created a file compression system that defys physics" level of impossible

yes it is

I miss old topgear lmao

“I definitely know what I am doing. I just want to know if it can even happen.”

[long briar]

the guy answered by seeing if you knew what you were asking

you had no scope, no goal, no knowledge of how anything works

so the answer is no

and if that's not the answer you wanted, then the alternate answer is "fuck no"

bold words coming from someone called Putin

[fossil frost]

ok, the long answer is... no, they will be written in two completely different ways, two completely different architectures, two completely different types of thought... but fundamentally doing the same thing in a different way... they are mutually exclusive and even if "merging" was a thing that even made sense, it would be irrelevant, because they both already do what the other does, but in a different way... but away from that.... technically there are parts of the windows kernel, and the linux kernel, that were "merged" from other kernels... not the whole thing, but parts of it... such as the TCP/IP4 stack, which is the berkley stack, from BSD, which is used in more more or less every operating system that is capable of doing TCP/IP4 (ms wrote their own stack for ipv6, and were the only ones not affected by the HUGE ipv6 bug a few years ago)..

Also fun fact, Windows 8, 10 and 11 all report the same NT kernel version of 6.3. This is because no one at microsoft knows how to do anything other than update it's aesthetics, add bloat software on top and call it a day.
The NT version string reported by 10 and 11 are marketing version strings. Deep down, they still report 6.3

5.3b to ULA
2.3b to Blue origin

All money spent on space is well spent 🔥🔥🔥

[sonic meteor]

How much ro nasa

[winged spire]

NASA doesn’t have a vehicle capable of launching a single payload of any kind

[full fossil]

Yes

[winged spire]

My car

[sonic meteor]

Yeah but they could develop one

[full fossil]

Uwww

[sonic meteor]

el gato

[full fossil]

He is cute

[winged spire]

There’s no reason for nasa to develop their own launch vehicle

They’re developing the SLS rocket which is billions overbudgrt and years behind schedule to bring humans back to the moon

[full fossil]

[winged spire]

It launched its first test mission about 2 years ago

[sonic meteor]

which checks out bc has anything in government actually gone on schedule

[winged spire]

The next next mission is in 18 months

SpaceX is cheaper and faster than any nasa developed rocket ever could be

[full fossil]

Yeah

[winged spire]

Especially now that there are 5 US based private launch companies

[sonic meteor]

Doesn't change the fact that i grew up with pride knowing that my family helped get man to the moon

privatization of space is kinda scary imo but spaceX is impressive

[winged spire]

You can buy a whole falcon 9 launch all in for less than 9 figures now

the entire rocket

[sonic meteor]

thats crazy

[gilded quest]

"you"
So if I get a small loan of $100M I can launch my ass into space 🤔

[sonic meteor]

hypothetically

[winged spire]

A single falcon 9 can reliably land something on the moon

It’s done it 3 times this year

[gilded quest]

Oh I ain't planning to land

[winged spire]

For like 70 million dollars you can launch a multi ton payload to the surface of the moon

Obviously not including the actual payload you’re sending

[gilded quest]

There's a lot I could do with $70M

[winged spire]

Here’s a better graph

[sonic meteor]

Wow the efficiency of falcon 9 is pretty impressive (considering tech improvements thats less impressive but still impressive), also goes to show that the shuttle was expensive considering the "reusability and efficiency" of the shuttle program

[winged spire]

Ignore the starship dot until they,, actually do it lol

[sonic meteor]

Phallic rockets...

[winged spire]

To refurbish a shuttle after a launch took 9 months and a fuck ton of money

SpaceX just resused a falcon 9 booster 9 days after landing it

They’re ABOUT to refly the first booster on starship too

Booster 14 last used on flight 7

[sonic meteor]

The engineers in spaceX are proof that when people are allowed to do stuff that they want to do they go crazy

[polar fern]

One is getting Mint, one s getting windows 10 recovery tool.

[dusk sierra]

Hah

@potent ocean lmao

[queen sorrel]

honestly, had the space race of never ended, we'd be in a better timeline

[sonic meteor]

Lol

[glacial goblet]

hi

[rigid prawn]

how does this sound? first time adding effects in Audacity

is this configuration good?

[glass zenith]

Holy shit

[plain roost]

ignore the brightness from HDR, it does not look like that for me.

[manic torrent]

The shuttle was also a plane that actually landed. It's an entirely different concept

[winged spire]

Shuttle failed at the task of a reusable space plane

it was a REFURBISHABLE space plane

[wicked steppe]

buying a fire truck for my new recording room

[neon mesa]

0B to Boeing

[winged spire]

boeing doesnt have a launch vehicle

[neon mesa]

They're still piggybacking on the atlas

[mint brook]

Hi

[upbeat ermine]

this is awesome

[winged spire]

bro looks exhausted

[sullen hound]

W stream

[neon mesa]

my 250Mbit plan be leaking to Gigabit

[torpid apex]

Iiii have a question. I asked in here a couple days ago for help about taking apart and painting my GPU. That process is done now, and I was wondering if there was anywhere to post pictures of the finished project

[proper perch]

[bright zenith]

How yall doing

[thorn bison]

Prenium internet to my eye

[bright zenith]

Also man do I absolutely NOT regret not taking calculus 3

[neon mesa]

Fuck calculus man

It gets worse and worse in college

[winged spire]

Yes

Then in my case I took a full year of statics

Statics fucking suck it’s so repetitive

[neon mesa]

Next thing you know it takes 2 pages worth of B5 paper to solve 1 problem

[bright zenith]

This is university math…

[winged spire]

It gets worse when they let you bring whatever you want into the test with you

[bright zenith]

Yeah though Intro to Modern Algebra was fun

[winged spire]

All notes and shit 💀

[bright zenith]

PDE’s?

[dapper prism]

Does anyone know a way to turn a WinDirStat .csv file into a 3d model? Im trying to make a "landscape" for an art project

[bright zenith]

PDE’s sucked ass

They could burn in a fire and I wouldn’t be sad

[neon mesa]

Bro they don't let me bring notes

[winged spire]

What the fuck is this

[bright zenith]

On calculus or differential equations?

[gilded quest]

We had statics and dynamics compressed into a single class

60% didn't pass

[bright zenith]

Damn

[gilded quest]

They split it into 2 courses the following year

[bright zenith]

I was the only one to pass the intro to modern algebra final lmao

I would 100% take a class like that or similar to that

Btw for those of you who don’t know Google says “Modern algebra, also known as abstract algebra, focuses on the study of algebraic structures like groups, rings, and fields, which are sets with specific operations acting on their elements, rather than solving for unknown variables like in classical algebra.”

We didn’t do structures, we did, integral domain, fields, groups, sets, and rings, really digging into how they work

[winged spire]

Quarter or semester schedule

[pallid falcon]

Kids meal box?

[winged spire]

Minecraft movie meal

10 piece or bigmac

[pallid falcon]

Oh what

That from the movie ?

[vapid moss]

[bright zenith]

Man why did people ignore me…

[pallid falcon]

Is there a difference between a big mac meal from the movie and just ordering it itself

[winged spire]

No

[pallid falcon]

Erm.. ok

[winged spire]

It just comes in a little meal box with the toy

I got the 10’piece

[vapid moss]

costs more tho

[winged spire]

McDonald’s hamburgers suck

[vapid moss]

[pallid falcon]

Is that if you doordash or whatever er

[winged spire]

The elytra is bedrock only

[vapid moss]

through the mcdonalds app

[winged spire]

Should have been a cape

[pallid falcon]

Alr

Might order one for it

[pallid falcon]

I want to see the movie but I don't want to go to the theater

[gusty portal]

It's amazing how the Switch 2 actually met my personal requirements of "minimum hardware necessary to purchase a Switch" (1080p, VRR, improved controllers), but I'm still not getting one purely due to Nintendo's jacking up the price.

[neon mesa]

both

meaning i have to memorize all of those formulassss

[quartz maple]

Literally just got a flint and meal and they gave me three buns

[winged spire]

Big Macs have 3 buns

Have you never seen a Big Mac before? lol

[vapid moss]

I think they're saying the big mac didn't have anything in it, just the bread

[winged spire]

???? How do you fuck up making a burger that bad 😭😭😭

That’s a new low

[bright zenith]

For differential equations Mathematical/Algebraic Finals we use notes, for the analytical/wordy finals we don’t

[grim belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-26024664

[bright zenith]

But out of Calculus AB I don’t have much experience in of calculus and differential equations @neon mesa

[vapid smelt]

Gasp I wonder how it's still in stock

[knotty plover]

mac donal

[gilded quest]

There's universities that do quarters?

[opal thunder]

Lmao the title
