  • The situation is more dangerous than when support for Windows 7 ended in early 2020. Even before the official date, at the end of 2019, only around 20 percent of users were still using Windows 7. Over 70 percent were already using the new Windows 10.

  • In kindergarten, a small suction-cup hourglass. The suction cup has already decomposed, but the rest is fine.

    Yes, I still have it.Unlike the pony from MLP (Twilight Sparkle) I had to "borrow" forever to someone else from family because I was a boy and had no business having a "girl toy". I also stole it in kindergarten. It was small, hard plastic figure coated with some plush-like coating. It was worn off at bottom of the legs.

    I still remember it, I didn't forget. Ironic. What I stole was stolen from me.

    We used to have lemmy.sdfcn.org, but it went the way of other SDF instances. This one I am on is the last one standing.

    Well, there is a remnant of lemmy.sdfeu.org, or rather a second spin of it, but the certificate expired all the way back in 7th September.lemmy.sdfjp.org - 502 and expired cert on 25th November 2023lemmy.sdfin.org - no response

  • TCP-over-HF

    I am quite interested in that. How did you achieve it? Is there some license-free band? As far as I know encryption is not allowed for any ham radio transmissions. What's the bandwidth? It seems packet radio on HF is 300 baud.

  • I mean, why though? There's so many gun people that could supply half the army from their own house yet it's generally either seen as cool or even being protective of their own family.

  • Bargaining

    Jump

  • For me it was the opposite. Whenever I tried some game and I didn't have luck it got boring. But passing it with god-power cheats was fun. Hell, I had most fun with GTA-SA after going through the game with cheats and then blowing up everything and everyone and spawning random vehicles to either use or blow up as well.

    I probably spent the most time with train and planes. Also I think car mods, I don't remember it that well anymore. Yeah, I think there was that mod garage near train station, definitely. That was a lof of fun too.

    For me, cheats made 95% of the fun.

  • If the source is to be trusted:

    Evidence indicates both disorders co-occur with a high frequency, in 20-50% of children with ADHD meeting criteria for ASD and in 30-80% of ASD children meeting criteria for ADHD.

    https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20148275/

    Also in the past, at least in US with DSM-4 it was thought that ASD and ADHD are mutually exclusive, so there's probably a lot of people incorrectly missing that diagnosis.

    DSM-5 superseded that in May 2013.

  • EU law mandating universal chargers for devices comes into force

  • Manufacturers are allowed to add supplementary charging standards on top of USB-C PD

    Controversial opinion: I wish this wasn't the case. So many different proprietary protocols, most of the time you'll still need a specific adapter, and in some cases even a proprietary cable to utilize the full speed, and nowadays most devices come without the adapter.And there's even PPS in the PD spec allowing to request for a specific voltage rather than something in an existing list.

    But I do also have some personal grievances here:

    1. Mi TurboCharge - This may be something based on PD, but still being something separate. I don't know, but I do know it requires more pins than USB-A has. 5 pins. Somewhere I read this is connected to a CC pin in the USB-C connector. But no, they did not use USB-C, they used USB-A, with an extra pin. Only shortly before the phone died I finally figured out why it wasn't charging as fast as expected - I wasn't using their proprietary cable.
    2. My current phone's interference (?) with Qualcomm QC 2.0 - Somehow when using a cable with non-perfect connection on QC-compatible adapters, when I move the USB-A connector, it starts triggering 12V mode until it finally shows overvoltage error and slows down to 7W. QC 2.0 is how my USB tester identifies it. This is a MediaTek-based device, so I don't think it would support QC. The original adapter uses PD and some 11V 6A thing with unknown protocol. Perhaps that is where the problem originates, I don't know what data it sends down. But testing with OTG adapter on the original brick it seems the protocol needs the extra pins of USB-C to work properly.

    I've had 3 phones that supported some fast charging, so far 2 of them made it into a confusing mess. Had they all used just PD it would have been a better experience.
