  • A lot more people will be unable to acquire a lot of things. There will be a lot more crime.

    The higher tariffs are paid by the importers, who make the customer pay for that. And considering that the minimum wage is now below the poverty line, a lot of electronics, even necessities like washing machines and fridges, will be unaffordable by some people.

    And what is the result when a lot of people can’t afford basic necessities? Crime.

    Give it a year.

  • Name them

  • Reminds me of a story I once read about a couple being on holiday in Italy. They went in a local pizzeria and were the only ones in there, they got pretty shady looks from everyone, but still ordered a pizza. It was the best pizza they ever had. Also, for the whole time they were there, no customer came there and it was silent.

    High quality self made 2S quadcopter?

    Hello guys!

    I was wondering if anyone could help me building a 3S FPV quad from scratch. Originally I was looking forward to buy the Crux3 limited edition 2S DIY set, but I got my money refunded because it‘s not available anymore. Instead of getting any other 2S Quad that’s capable of carrying a RunCam Thumb, I was thinking about building a 3S from scratch, which I will take as an opportunity to learn more, and hopefully I will not fall down this rabbit hole and not fly anymore.

    So yeah, main thing I want this to do is using the RunCam.

    Anyway, I want her to be analog, ELRS, 3S; a big plus would be removable prop-guards.

    Sadly, I have no idea what FC (or is it AIO FC?) to use, but I was thinking about the SpeedyBee F7 V3 FPV Flight Controller, since the description says 3S-6S - and it’s currently on sale.

    Is it a good choice? Thanks in advance!

  • As someone who mothertongues a language that reads "ä" as "eh", I’ve always been calling that thing "heh'aagen-dasz" and because of that I’ll never buy it. It could be delicious, yet I refuse to support this kind of usage.

  • Back in the days, everyone on the internet was a man. Men were men, women were men, boys were men, little girls were FBI-agents, and I was 18 as soon as I got internet access, despite turning 18 years later.

  • Too many companies tried, but the niche usage prevents that.

    I used the Samsung phone desktop environment a lot back in the days, mainly for retro gaming on TV.

    My MacBook is basically bound to the dock, except when I need it as a laptop specifically, which is what I bought it to be in the first place.

  • It had a dead transmission when I bought it, poor thing did not get a wash after winter.

    My Audi that I’ve been driving for 8 years gets her belly washed every month. No rust in sight so far.

  • Not a Canadian, but: get something that’s common. The more people that have had the car, the more reliable it usually is and the cheaper are parts and repairs.

    My first car was a Hyundai Getz which was about 10 years old when I got it, and she died of rust 4 years later. But it was cheap, reliable and had AC.

    I have 2 toothless cats (2.5 & 3 y/o) - do you need some tips?

    They got the teeth removed because their body rejected their teeth. They aren’t even brothers. One is the result of a friend‘s outside cat getting pregnant before the castration appointment, the other one we just found at 2 weeks old, scared, behind the brakes of my dad‘s car. They’re without any teeth since they are about 1 year old, so we all are pretty used to it.

    The removal is a long story, the short version is that the old vet wanted to sell us special food and inject the cats monthly, the new vet told us about the possibile ways to treat it, naming risks and benefits as well.

    Funny enough, the day they got their vaccines the doctor got a new x-ray machine for heads and he exitedly x-rayed the cats for free to test the machine - further showing that a removal of the teeth was necessary.

    Anyway - if you‘re having problems with a toothless ambush predator, or want some infos due to an upcoming dental procedure - please just ask!

    If you want a spooky walking simulator, check out Layers of Fear!

    It’s been about 8 years since I played this on PS4 for the first and only time so far. All I remember is a library, some paintings and that the atmosphere was pretty amazing. It’s not your typical survival horror experience where at one point you just Run&Gun your way through hordes of undeads. In the comments I read that you cannot rebind keys and other problems, this could be a no-go for some of you. Also, forced 16:9 aspect ratio is a thing.

    YSK that Amazon has different prices for different people

    My girl was looking for a dress for Halloween. Yesterday she found one on Amazon for € 35 and put it in the cart, but did not buy it. Today she looked it up again and it was € 50 so she asked me to look it up with my phone with my Amazon account - it turned out to be € 23 for me, less than half of what it’s for her!

    Would you agree that this is a good list to stop ads on the internet?

    On Linux or Windows? Firefox + uBlock origin (there’s nothing better than that)

    On Mac? Firefox + uBlock origin (worse alternative: Safari + AdGuard, since you might synch browser with iPhone)

    On Android? Firefox + Privacy Badger + uBlock Origin

    On iOS? Safari + AdGuard + Vinegar + Baking Soda

    On SmartTV it’s different.

    I like that Apple removed so many ports from their Laptops

    I got myself a Mac for learning SwiftUi because I want to make an iPhone game. I got myself a used 16/256 M1 Air model that has 2 USB-C ports and that’s it.

    This made me create a workstation, where I have a high quality Thunderbolt 3 dock that works with DisplayLink, so I can have up to 4 external displays on windows and 3 on my MacBook Air. On this dock, I have connected 2 monitors, a mouse, a keyboard, a webcam, still have some USB A and C ports free to use. Best thing is that this dock has a micro SD and a regular SD slot!

    All this through a single USB-C cable!

    I want to connect my work HP Probook to this setup? Just plug the USB-C cable in and all comes to life!

    I want to connect my gaming-PC? Just plug the USB-C cable in the Thunderbolt slot of the Graphics card and all comes to life!

    Oh, I want to connect my USB-C emulator console, iPad, Tablet, etc. to the monitor, or the USB-stick? Or the Ethernet ? Just plug it in!

    I fixed the Apple Magic Mouse 2!

    In my asklemmy post (here: https://lemmy.world/post/20013379) I asked if anybody could help me because the mouse just does not glide well on my mousepad, while the 10 year old gaming mouse does glide.

    The answers were pretty good and something I looked into. Then, I was just like "what if…" and put regular tape on the mouse, just to test it… and… it glides!

    How do you make a mouse glide better on a mousepad?

    I‘ve recently bought an Apple Magic Mouse to have a mouse for my left hand while working. My main mouse on the right is my trusty SL Prime-Z DW. This one glides around the mousepad like butter in a hot pan. My totally new Apple Magic Mouse however drags like dry-fried chicken. My mousepad is the size of the whole desk, so it’s the same mousepad for both mice. The other mouse I had was gliding just fine, but buttons don’t work with my left hand so I settled for this one. And no, I don’t plan on putting a Trackpad there, the trackpad is below the keyboard (I need it to better move the camera)

    Do you have any tips as to how I can make this mouse glide better?

    Has anyone of you stumbled upon any information on how to get it running on machines like mine, or does it just not have enough power?

    If a creature like this would exist, would it...

    Close its mouth at the speed of light?

    Close its mouth at the speed of sound?

    Close its mouth faster than the speed of light?

    Also… wouldn’t it be heavier than the galaxy itself? So it would create its own gravitational pull that’s like extremely strong?

    Watch OS needs Series 6 or newer

    For anyone wondering: all AppleWatches older than the S6 Chip are being cancelled, basically Series 5 and below is dead.

    Well then, farewell Series 3. You’ve been a great companion since 2017. I will enjoy the time we still have together, until you finally decorate the rainbow arm when crossing into the big drawer up in the skies. May you be reunited with the Series 0.

    Why does everyone hate Microsoft for adding LLMs into Windows and spying on users, but not Apple?

    I've watched the keynote and read some stuff on the internet and I've found this video about a dude talking about the new update (I linked it here because if you didn't see the keynote, this is probably enough)

    Is it just me, or... does no one address that Apple does a Microsoft move by basically scanning everything on every machine and feeding this into their LLM?

    Cable or adapter?

    Does it make any difference (quality-wise and input-delay-wise) if I use a DisplayPort to HDMI cable directly or a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, followed by a regular HDMI cable?
