  • Lesbians like me joined forces with conservatives. Now they're turning on us.

  • It’s disheartening that she still doesn’t realize that the transphobia and misogyny she partakes in are rooted in the same falsehoods currently being used to strip her of her rights.

    But, there’s no such thing as an intelligent conservative.

  • I work at a scuba shop. This would be an equally dumb question there.

  • This is the best solution.

  • I thought he was going to rewrite the entire stack. He said with 100% confidence that that’s what was needed. He even got incredibly angry when someone asked him to explain what was wrong with the existing stack and which parts would be rewritten.

  • Sex Doll Company Plans To Create AI Teachers For New York School District

    Jump

  • Maybe you’re just a moron, because a. this has nothing to do with politics, and b. even if it did, it’s happening in a Republican county:

    This ludicrous stunt is being subjected upon Salamanca, New York, a city in Cattaraugus County, with a population of 5,929, and Seneca Nation land. And, as is the case with every single AI grift in existence, it’s being done not to actually help the widely impoverished people of Salamanca, but to try to promote the company’s AI.

  • Show HN: E– – A language you dial between English and Python

    Jump

  • AI slop.

  • OpenAI's Codex app has 70% GPU usage while it is “thinking” due to tiny useless animation

    Jump

  • All apps developed by AI use useless, annoying, battery draining animations. That’s why you have to close them once you’re done if you want any battery life at all. The Suno app will chew through 50% of my battery in an hour.

  • State of the Discord - A Lesson (r/selfhosted)

    Jump

  • I definitely agree. Lol. But I also totally understand using Discord. I assume the community isn’t meant exclusively for people who currently self host, but also for people interested in starting to. In that regard, Discord will most likely be what those people have and are willing to use.

  • When does. Trying to convince someone become trying to manipulate someone

    Jump

  • I had a friend who would not take no for an answer. He gave me an ultimatum. We are no longer friends.

  • I did my first scuba dive in 8 years.

    Jump

  • I don’t. My regulator is pretty old. I’m probably gonna get a new one. But you still have a mouthpiece in, so it’ll always feel like you’re breathing through a hose in that regard.

  • I did my first scuba dive in 8 years.

    Jump

  • It’s not that hard. It kinda feels like you’re breathing through a three foot hose, cause that’s kinda what you’re doing. The first stage regulator sits on your tank and delivers low pressure air to the second stage regulator, which is the part you breathe from. It’s something you get used to pretty quickly.

    The first dot is the beginning of the dive. The red dot is an ascent speed alarm, because I was ascending too fast. The series of close green dots are my computer kinda being a dummy and starting my safety stop over and over again. The safety stop is supposed to be at 15’, but we did it at 20’, since we were coming in along the sea floor, and it was easy to stop there. The computer starts your safety stop at 20’ and expects you to ascend to 15’ and stop, so it kept restarting the safety stop over and over as I was hovering around 20’.

    Through the dive, I used 1257 PSI, which is not terrible, but not great. Basically, I was breathing heavier than normal, cause I was a bit nervous. Plus, when I get cold, I tend to breathe a lot heavier (which is normal, not unique to me).

    Jump

  • When they say no, and that’s final/to drop it, and you still try to convince them.

  • How do I explain what is the Fediverse to someone who I'm trying to invite over?

    Jump

  • It’s like _____, but it sucks. But like, in a good way. Like the old Internet. It sucked, but that’s what made it so good.

  • New Air Force One Lacks Defensive Countermeasures of Previous Model, Officials Say

    Jump

  • I am ok with Trump taking that chance.

  • Framework proved repairable laptops can work, but almost nobody is willing to buy one

    Jump

  • Ah, ok. Well I don’t think Framework has done much in the way of cost. The 13’s battery is listed on their site for $70, so it’s about on par with other battery replacements, if not a bit more expensive.

  • Framework proved repairable laptops can work, but almost nobody is willing to buy one

    Jump

  • I understand that I can sell it. Why would I? I wouldn’t be able to get a better laptop for what I sold it for, so I’d just go through all of that hassle to have a similar laptop. Unless they somehow don’t depreciate and I’m just unaware of that…

  • Framework proved repairable laptops can work, but almost nobody is willing to buy one

    Jump

  • I already paid the money for the Framework. They tricked me. They got my money. I already lost.

    When it eventually dies, I will not consider another Framework. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me… you can’t get fooled again.

  • Framework proved repairable laptops can work, but almost nobody is willing to buy one

    Jump

  • That’s good. This was mine two weeks after the warranty expired.

    I would be more inclined to give them a pass on maybe a bad batch of cheap batteries if the laptop didn’t have a nearly 40% price premium over competitors. If you’re going to charge a much higher price, I’m going to expect a much better product.

  • Framework proved repairable laptops can work, but almost nobody is willing to buy one

    Jump

  • I’m not sure that there’s any such thing as a “generic laptop battery”. They’re still made to fit one or maybe a handful of models. AFAICT, buying a replacement Framework battery is about the same as buying any other laptop’s replacement battery. I’ve replaced 4 different laptops’ batteries in the past 5 years, and the Framework was the second easiest (after the Thinkpad that you literally just slide the battery out of), but even the most difficult one wasn’t that hard. So as far as hassle, I’d say the worst offender still isn’t that bad.

    1. Thinkpad (unknown model, slide out mechanism, no need to open chassis)
    2. Framework 13 (chassis easy to open, unscrew old battery, screw in new one, easy connector)
    3. Acer Spin 5 (basically the same as the Framework, but you have to pry the chassis a little)
    4. Dell XPS (unknown model, chassis much harder to get into, but once in, basically the same as Framwork and Acer)

    Batteries just aren’t that hard to replace.
