On the internet, nobody knows you are Australian.

also https://lemm.ee/u/MargotRobbie

To tell you the truth, I don't know who I am either. Somebody sincere, perhaps.

But if you ever read this one day, I hope that you are as proud of me, as I am of the person I imagined you to be.

  • I never knew that USB-C extensions are not allowed for a reason

    Jump

  • I would say more like a Harley Quinn.

  • How do you feel about your content getting scraped by AI models?

    Jump

  • If there was only some way to make any attempts at building an accurate profile of one's online presence via data scraping completely useless by masking one's own presence within the vast quantity of online data of someone else, let's say for example, a famous public figure.

    But who would do such a thing?

  • What successful or popular movie that many loved you just HATE?

    Jump

  • If you think Ernest Cline's movie is cringy, wait until you read his poetry. Absolutely one of the worst piece of writing I've ever read.

    And it only gets worse from there.

  • I never knew that USB-C extensions are not allowed for a reason

    Jump

  • You're right. Those are active cables which I forgot to mention earlier that have special circuits that amplify signals, but are also a lot more expensive as a result.

  • Celebrities will never adopt the Fediverse until usernames are centralized.

    Jump

  • Pssh. Celebrities on social media, who needs them anyway.

  • I never knew that USB-C extensions are not allowed for a reason

    Jump

  • You could always buy more copies of "Barbie" on Blu-ray for Christmas.

    Just saying.

  • I never knew that USB-C extensions are not allowed for a reason

    Jump

  • That's esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie to you!

    Also, thank you.

  • If you want a more detailed explanation, USB-C is a small connector that was designed primarily for data transfer, extended power range delivery (240w) was essentially hacked on to the standard. Electricity arcing between the contacts on the connector is the biggest challenge with this hack, since the contacts are small and very close together, which could burn out the circuit board and start fires. For EPR to work safely, there needs to be a lot of extra components on the circuit board/female connector side, which there simply isn't enough space for on an f2m extension cable.

    As for why USB-C cables are so short, it's simply a matter of physics, carrying high speed data over larger distances would result in higher losses and requires thicker conductors and more shielding, which is why you don't see USB4 Gen3 cables over 1 meter unless they are optical, and longer "charging cables" are only rated at USB 2.0 speeds, because more often than not they don't even have the USB 3.x data pins on their connector.

  • I hate cast iron so I am in favour of this.

    Jump

  • The obsession with cast iron like it is some kind of magic ritual is honestly really weird. After you cook with it, wash it with water and dry it with some paper towels, that's it, no need to make it more complicated than it really is.

    If things are sticking to your pan, use more oil in your pan; with enough oil, you can cook on a rock and make it nonstick.

  • Lemmies who post or comment way too much by your own reckoning(raises own hand), how do you have so much free time?

    Jump

  • A while ago, I had A LOT of free time to shitpost on social media, and I was beginning to miss it.

    I don't have as much time anymore. 😭

  • After Musk's pro-Trump/Vance bender, X users report issues following Kamala Harris' accounts

    Jump

  • Which goes to show that if you are a public figure whether in politics, entertainment, or otherwise, owning your own server for social media instead of relying on Zuck and Musk should be a critical concern at this point.

    There is no reason for the Harris campaign to not dip their toe into federated social media at this point given Musk's antagonism towards them.

  • What's your way of destressing?

    Jump

  • You probably never heard of it, but I shitpost on this obscure technology forum called Lemonworld or something on things I would never admit to in public.

    It's great, I'm something of a celebrity over there.

  • Do you recognise any usernames on Lemmy?

  • Yay

  • US to impose tariffs on Chinese EVs next week

    Jump

  • Although the BYDs and GWMs and MGs are getting popular in Australia, I have literally never seen a Chinese EV in the States outside of locally built BYD busses, and BYD cars have distinct designs that are fairly easy to spot. So this feels like posturing to me.

  • Paying your rent: it's that easy

    Jump

  • Nice try, Academy Award winning director Quentin Tarantino, but I'm not falling for that one again.

  • There's a difference

    Jump

  • Why is it that everything on this platform is about Linux, Star Trek and beans?

  • Deck the Malls

    Jump

  • I found that the older you get, the faster time flies by.
