That’s how I learned to tie my shoelaces as a kid. I was “taught” by a cousin iirc, who was barely older than me and couldn’t demonstrate it properly. I figured it out on my own by visualising it. It’s the bunny ears method that I use to this day.

I use Session Messenger, on the Oxen network. Love it on principle even tho the implementation is a bit lacking in places.

And there’s Tor… Which is what it is.

There’s a girl on YT who has one arm and said exactly that - “I don’t know how you people with two arms sleep” I think.

I wouldn’t be so stoked about it. Retail chains use alp kinds of dirty tactics to get products cheaper, this is probably one of them.

Check out Like Stories of Old and Joseph Anderson, although the latter haven’t posted anything in a long time…

The energy wouldn’t be lost, most of it would be used to heat the inside of the oven itself; and the air inside it, some of which can escape I guess, but that won’t make much difference whether there’s a pan or not.

However the pan itself needs to be heated up as well - or maybe not “needs to”, but will regardless, and that’s energy that will go into the pan instead of the rest of the oven.

So if anything, the whole thing will heat up slower because there’s more cold metal. It will also cool down slower after the heat is turned off, because there’s more hot metal.

If you’re not sure, take the question to an extreme: an empty oven vs. one with a huge 100kg block of metal inside it. Which one will heat up faster?

AliExpress is completely fine, nothing sketchy about it in principle. You can find trash on it since it’s a very open marketplace, making it the same as Amazon or eBay.

Except that unlike Amazon, AX doesn’t copy their sellers’ products just to sell them under their own brand and kick the sellers out, nor does it sign monopolistic pacts with Apple. Workers treatment is about the same I guess… So correction, less sketchy than Amazon or eBay.

Wish specialises in dogshit and review manipulation though. Not good for anything more than a phone case, and I’d rather buy those on AX anyway.

I didn’t even know you can partition a card like that… But when I had a card with some problems and was trying different things to recover it, I learned Android refuses to mount a card as internal storage if it was messed with in any way, such as trying to clone the card onto another (unless they’re 100% identical I guess) or doing any sort of partitioning. It will just refuse to mount or even acknowledge it.

And since it’s not mounted, it won’t show up in any way, including through adb. The only thing available in the phone is to reformat it. Maybe with root you could do more, idk.

Maybe you can revert the partitioning with a separate SD card reader in your computer.

Ed: Btw another thing is that SD cards in general aren’t meant to be partitioned in the first place, since they don’t have their own controller or driver or whatever it is that can receive and interpret such commands. So if you partition an SD card, most OSs will recognise only one partition. Why even is there an adb command to partition, I don’t know, but it’s hardly good for anything practical imo.

I don’t think FairPhone customers are exactly regular consumer population, and there was a strong backlash against removing the jack in fp4 (and introducing ewaste wireless buds). So either the people we buying the phones anyway, or the company has so many customers they don’t give a shit.

You drank too much Apple koolaid

It’s even wilder that they didn’t learn the lesson after fp4. Did people really just complain and then buy it anyway? How many phones can they sell that they can afford to piss off their customers like this? I just don’t understand how is the smartphone market so borked.

In the sense that vegans want vegan food available in vegan stores? Cause that’s the equivalent of wanting a headphone jack in a phone from a company that sells their products on all these promises.

I’d say the change in Calculator from W7 to W8 was more than cosmetic. Never have I stared at my 27" 2.5k monitor so stupidly than when I first launched calculator on W8 and that thing blew up over the entire screen with no proper way to leave it on top of other windows.

I think that’s when it really had to be clear to everyone that MS has no idea how humans use computers.

I’ll add the important bit, that it’s this icon:

If you see this icon, click it. If you have a program/app that can read the feed, it will open and you’ll see what it does.

Even Lemmy communities have their own RSS feeds, tho it’s limited to last 10 or 50? Idk, posts.

I dunno why he’s wearing the patch, but that’s the German Chancellor, and yesterday he posted that photo with an eyepatch and basically dared the whole internet to make memes of him.

Very accurate indeed.

Yea I had the same feeling like what you’re describing.

Book clubs. When I was driving a night taxi, the latest customers on workdays were book club people.

Music clubs too possibly, especially jazz.

Unspecified Europe here. Some people say hi at waiting rooms, I don’t, since at that space especially I want to be left alone and not in any way encourage conversation from randos.

Other places, it depends but generally also no, unless I’m greeted. I guess I feel that the personnel has no obligation to acknowledge me unless I actually want something. In which case I do say hi for sure.
