Our senators are worthless leeches that only exist to argue over problems that will never get solved.
Let's see them implement policies that actually benefit the average American instead of just their ruling class.
They all wear nice suits.
world order
You mean western dominance?
I don't want to be notified everytime I get a reply to one of my posts. Is there a way to turn this off?
It should be interesting to see who pays for this when Russia wins.
Pretty sure the US is one of the few nations that never said they wouldn't use them.
Ukraine can’t win without Western troops.
It’s that simple.
I swear, some of you people are just arguing with yourselves at this point.
It's like playing leapfrog when nobody else is there.
Ukraine can't win without Western troops.
It's that simple.
I think that money could be used for better things by people who actually need it.
I agree. It's great to have machines do the work we don't want to do so we can do other things with our lives.
We just need to get over this mentality that those who have more deserve more and those who have less deserve less.
Personally, I've found AI is wrong about 80% of the time for questions I ask it.
It's essentially just a search engine with cleverbot. If the problem you're dealing with is esoteric and therefore not easily searchable, AI won't fare any better.
I think AI would be a lot more useful if it gave a percentage indicating how confident it is in its answers, too. It's very useless to have it constantly give wrong information as though it is correct.
"Designers" desperate to stay relevant and make their worthless degrees seem worthwhile.
I actually just use my phone for internet and haven't had a landline ISP for 2 years now.
Visible, $25/month has saved me so much money and they even sent me a free phone.
Everyone is different.
I personally think copyright and patent laws need to die. If you can't protect your own secrets, don't rely on taxpayer resources to do it for you.
White-collar workers were cool with machines and poorer nations taking blue-collar jobs. Now that it threatens them and their money, the hypocrisy is on full display.
Only because it would hurt their bottom line.
Funny how we can only win when it's corporations fighting each other.
if it ever becomes more popular the same assholes that ruin other online experiences will also wind up here.
That's kind of the glory of the fediverse, though. We can have communities using the same protocol that never interact with each other.
There can be completely separate fediverses that cater to different people.
I've thought about this. Essentially, whenever a channel gets moderately successful they will be contacted by various agencies trying to 'sponsor' them.
All the people that make video for fun hardly get seen, and if they do it's not long before they sell out.
I want to install Debian directly onto my USB drive. Is there an easy way to do this directly without having to reboot to run the installer?
Broken hinges legitimately should not be a thing, but here we are (thanks capitalism.)
Which gaming laptops can people buy and be sure that their hinges will not break even after many years of normal use? I'm fine with paying more if it avoids repairing or replacing it before it's past its usefulness.
Seeing all these videos of soldiers dying and getting injured, it makes me wonder if the field medics carry morphine to ease their suffering.
I have one of those basic motor kits you can buy off of Amazon. I was wondering what steps I should take to make it so that I can turn the motor on/off with the press of a button, wirelessly.
I'm still very new, so any information you can offer no matter how basic will probably be useful to me.
I'm noticing a stark decline in the quality of bluetooth products lately (interference, disconnecting, dubious sound quality), and I'm curious if I can figure out what's going on.
Are there any good books for learning about the Bluetooth technology used in generic PS4 controllers? I'm not sure if that's bluetooth LE or classic or 5.0, but that's where I would like to start.
Any books or online resources just to get my foot in the door would be greatly appreciated.
The controller I'm using shuts off after about 5 minutes of idle time. I tried adjusting the value in Steam, but it doesn't have any effect.
Does anyone know where this value may be stored or how I can change it to be much longer?
I use it all the time and have for years. Just seems like a weird feature to lock behind about.config and say it's not supported while they still support things like Pocket.
Whenever I left click over something that I can potentially interact with, I have to try several times before the prompt appears.
Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone know of a solution?
So, apparently the chrome/geckodriver processes will terminate on their own if the user sends ctrl+c to the console. It will not terminate on its own if the program finishes running naturally.
If you're interested in terminating it on your own, like I also was, here is how I went about it.
``` use std::process::{Child, Command};
fn main() { let mut s = Server::default(); s.start(); s.shutdown(); }
struct Server { child: Option<Child> }
impl Default for Server { fn default() -> Self { Self { child: None } } }
impl Server { fn start(&mut self) { self.child = Some(Command::new("./chromedriver") .spawn() .expect("ls command failed to start")); }
fn shutdown(&mut self) { input(None); // wait for input so you can observe the process self.child.as_mut().unwrap().kill(); self.child.as_mut().unwrap().wait(); println!("shutdown"); } }
pub fn input(prompt: Option<String>) { let mut input = String::new(); match prompt { Some(prompt) => println!("{}", prompt), None => () } io::stdin().read_line(&mut input).expect("Failed to read input"); } ```
The streaming sites listed on https://rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv#streaming have plenty of duplicates. Essentially, they're the same sites with different names/skins but the exact same content.
It would be beneficial to the community if we could consolidate these down into groups according to which ones are the same.
We can still list all of them, but perhaps do it together so people don't waste their time trying out the same site under a different name.
I've printed similar objects with a different colored PLA, but I ran out of it and switched to this.
Is it possible that this could be influencing the outcome?
I have tried reducing the printing speed by 50%, but this did not seem to have a significant impact.
[SOLUTION] The problem was a loose screw. The offending part as well as the new result are pictured below. It's not perfect, which I guess is actually a part of the model this time, but it's good enough for my purposes and way better than what it was before.
I figured this out by twisting the Z-axis thingy manually all the way to the top to see if I could feel any issues. Towards the top, it would start to 'skip', where I would turn and pretty much nothing would happen. I assume this has to do with the lack of lube at the top because my prints rarely go that high. I checked to see if the screws were loose, and sure enough, the top one was. I tightened it up and now my printer is printing like the beast I remember!
Isn't it enough to just enter your password once to login, then receive a warning whenever you're about to do something potentially dangerous?
If it's such a big security risk, how come the most popular and widely used operating systems in the world and their users seem to be unaffected by it?
I guarantee, most new users coming to Linux from Windows/macOS are going to laugh and look at you funny if you try to justify entering your password again and again and again.
