  • It's a credit card, they don't typically have pins like debit cards do. They do have a 3 digit CVC code on the back, but 3 digits is pretty easy to get just by brute force guessing.

  • A Lemmy instance. The one this post is on, and my local instance, as it happens.

    It's self described as anarchist and has an active piracy community which is occasionally a point of controversy with other instances.

  • It's not engineering either. Or art. It's only barely writing, in an overly literal sense.

  • The first time I ever went to Hattie B's I was absolutely plastered. I demanded the hottest chicken they had. Best mistake ever. I was pooping lava all night 10/10

  • Despite the bad press, half of America is still considering an EV or hybrid car — they just want them to be cheaper

    Jump

  • I'll happily drive an ev if

    • it is affordable
    • it doesn't require an online account and app to work correctly
    • it isn't an enormous truck/SUV
    • it isn't fucking hideous
    • I don't have to support Elon Musk

    Too bad nobody's making one of those.

  • Except for the anti-zionist thing (the American GOP is seemingly Zionist and antisemitic at the same time) and the German-specific stuff, this sounds a lot like Republicans.

  • I've been in a restroom and had the lights turn off on me because a sensor didn't detect someone was still I the room. I'd bet good money I'm not the only one. Sensors, presently, are either invasive or inaccurate. Or both.

  • Klim could save a lot of bad pr by just blowing the airbag anyway and sending a bill for the remaining value of the vest after the fact.

    But then you're just financing a vest and that's not a fancy buzzword that makes the c-suite cream their pants.

  • Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Jump

  • In overly simple terms

    It's a terminal app on your desktop, e.g. alacritty, konsole, kitty, terminator, urxvt, etc.

    As opposed to the terminal that your computer would boot into it you didn't have a desktop environment installed.

  • Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Jump

  • Alacritty

    No particular reason why. It's fast, it works, and I've already got it configured how I like it.

    I've used kitty and a couple others. It really doesn't make much difference to me tbh.

  • Yeah. Sure.

  • So humans feel cold at 0F and hot at 100F?

    In aggregate this is absolutely true, though not the point anyone is making.

    Humans start quickly dying at something around 32F and 180F

    Humans will die of dehydration or heat stroke quite quickly at temperatures well below 180F. In fact that's far hotter than the hottest recorded temp on Earth (~135F/56.7C) (not including human-made environs like a sauna or outliers like an active volcano) so I'm frankly not sure what point your even trying to make here.

    Fahrenheit is complete nonsense. It has nothing to do with humans.

    The latter statement is manifestly false. Fahrenheit was originally supposed to have 90 degrees as the average humans body temp (no clue why 90 and not 100). Due to inaccuracies in measurements of the time, It was later changed to 96 and then 98.7. Still no clue why not just 100, but the fact remains it was based on human body temps. The zero point was selected using the freezing point of a brine mixture. No real defending that one, it was pretty much arbitrary.

    And considering humans are mostly water Celsius seems a much better fit.

    But we aren't just water. In any case, humans are rarely at boiling temperature. My ideal temp scale would have 0 at water's freezing point and 100 at a humans body temp.
