The old Dysons are way better than whatever the hell they're doing nowadays. I could genuinely feel the difference in the plastic quality when I moved from an older DC 39 to a newer Big Ball (the Big Ball's is significantly worse). Not to mention the Big Ball has gone through two roller heads (both had the mechanism break). No wonder their newer cordless models have a 2 year warranty instead of the old corded 5 year. They used to be really good, if a bit expensive, but now the options from Bosch and Miele look far more attractive.
It was so off putting when you just wanted to share something and proceeded to get struck down by the wrath of the mods, or worse, the completely opaque auto filtering CQS system. As you can probably tell from my profile, I love making memes, but only really had the courage to start when I joined Lemmy, since if I made a bad one here it would just get downvoted and I would have a chance. This place is such a breath of fresh air.
You'd be surprised at how recently the glow plug lighters were removed. I know at least a few mid 2000s VWs that came with it standard and not as part of any smoker's package option.
That is very weird. My AW3423DWF will stop the refresh cycle in the middle as soon as it detects an input in standby and come back within a second or two. What model do you have? It might be worth updating the firmware.
Ah, I have an Alienware OLED and didn't find the refresh too annoying. For me I just leave it on standby for a bit when I'm taking a break and it'll be done with the refresh when I'm back. I can get how it can be a pain though, since it sometimes does not pop up the refresh info message for some reason.
Have I just been really lucky or something with OLEDs? Almost all the ones I have had for 5+ years on phones and such, and even my nearly two year old desktop one, have nearly zero burn in.
Today I learned that for some reason some DNS servers don't like SRV records, so had to troubleshoot it when people were unable to log onto my Minecraft server that is on a non-default port.
I haven't tried it myself yet, but there is a GPodder sync server app for Nextcloud that can let you sync subscriptions and play time to any compatible app. This would probably be the best solution as it would use your existing setup.
My life forever changed when I found out you could play Mario Kart with a Nunchuk instead of the motion controls. It's so much better.
