  • This whole thing of preserving battery life is something for people that want to use a phone for 5+ years without needing a new battery.

    That's a narrow point of view. It's also reducing the ecological impact if a device's battery isn't trashed after two years, someone else would likely use it.

  • CAD on Linux sucks. Most is made as Windows only, and many people have tried running it through Wine (Bottles) or other janky methods. Don't even try it.

    How is gaming not a problem any more, but CAD is? Shouldn't the same tools work to enable both?

  • Eh, from what I've seen over the years I would think he lost control of his own narrative, and can't find a satisfying way to get everything together. Or the series finale was actually reasonably close to the intended book ending, and he doesn't feel like confirming that this pile of dung was really his.

  • Colonial powers, all of them west of Germany. Not sure why Western Europe as a whole should shoulder the same amount of blame.

  • We wouldn't be here if they had two brain cells to rub together.

  • Guys really don't care, less so the more they drink. Wall is more convenient than a toilet around the block whether it's sparkling or not.

  • That's a lot better than I'd give them credit for.

  • This is America.

  • This isn't for him, it's for the Crown so they can get some distance. I'd say too little too late, but we will see how the public will react.

  • Telemetry is not malware, as much as you may despise both of them. Words mean things.

  • Would you think that makes sense if you were designing this feature?

  • When I read this, it seemed like an attempt at a pithy comment that included a logical fallacy but I couldn't put my finger on it.

    It was. But I also think it boils the topic down pretty well. One thing you seemed to have skipped is that there are plenty of circumcised people expressing regret. So the resulting logic table is very straightforward.

    People who went through the procedure at a time in life where they can remember both also corroborate this - while it's generally not the end of the world, nobody wants to be circumcised unless it's all they've known.

  • Just something he keeps in a jar...

  • I honestly would be curious to see studies that people thought were trustworthy that showed it one way or another.

    You only need to look a one fact: the only people defending the practice are people who it was done to.

  • Incinerate.

  • Got any specific videos to recommend?

  • Trump doesn't hate the USA. He is just using it to further himself, like anything else in his life.

    The mockery is that Trump is more of an embodiment of America than most realize.

  • Using lemmy increases its popularity which in turn leads to more donations or other benefits.

  • If you can find one.
