Metal piece with many pointy pieces and neodymium magnets in a microwave? The sparks will damage the item and the oven. And won't melt the plastic

Secondo me si, usa pochissime risorse su server

Xitter investors got scammed and there was no way that xitter would be able to pay 1 billion per year in interest. Better having someone else holding the bag

Russia can't even easily annex confining countries with lots of roads and rails, how they would even try to get to Greenland with all those NATO countries in the middle.

China would even need to circumnavigate the Americas to reach it

I feel there's another dictatorship that's more dangerous than those two

Now I understood why a few weeks ago it was said that xitter was back to the old ultra overvalued valuation even with less revenue and less users. Because he found some other idiots to pay for it hoping to hit big when and if does an IPO

What? It wasn't already the same company? Are you telling me that managed to create a useless company with no revenue from his asshole, persuaded idiots to pour billions in this new startup, then used that money to pay the billions in debt that other idiots lent to buy another useless company with no revenue?

As a customer I hate those "smart" address form as they don't accept my real house number but I need to put the generic one and hope the delivery guy is smart enough to read notes

I work in a e-commerce and the amount of people that forgets the street number is insane.

We send email to ask clarification: no response (probably filtered by the artificial stupidity classification in Gmail, everyone only reads the main category)

We call them to ask clarification: nobody picks up because they assume it's telemarketing

I blame the Google chrome auto fill, because it fills the whole form automatically instead of line by line like on Firefox, so people assume that it's filled correctly while instead the browser decided to omit the street number

Se li possono tenere

 

I went to install gsam battery monitor on a new phone and it looks like it has been delisted recently.

Does anyone has more info on that? It was a staple on my phones since almost a decade...

Any alternative that shows a graph with rate of charge/discharge?

 

I bought a refurbished pixel 7 in europe. I assumed it was the european version (GVU6C).

I tested it and it appeared functional in all functions, so i released the escrow to the seller.

Now because I don't trust the software hasn't been tampered, I wanted to clean it with flash.android.com but... can't because it can't unlock the bootloader (even if i connect to internet and call the code ##2432546## to get the "checkin requested" from google play services)

It looks like i have the model GQML3 for Verizon which can't be bootloader unlocked. FUCK! I especially bought this because it can unlock the bootloader...

Anyway.... about restoring the original software....

Phone says "phone is with latest update installed" with android 14 and security update from 5 june 2024.

Can I flash the full image for android 15 with october security update or i risk a brick? Do I need to wait for the lazy fucks at verizon to "certify" the android 15 update? Those fuckers take ages to "certify" the updates...

 

A decade ago I used BitTorrent Sync. Then it became Resilio Sync. Then with Resilio Sync 2 they nerfed the free app to a point that I just removed that from all my computers and switched to syncthing.

Yesterday I was watching my server struggling when syncthing was doing the periodic scan of a directory with hundreds of thousands of files and then i thought, "maybe Resilio Sync uses less resources or doesn't waste time reindexing a static directory for the nth time"

I went to see their website and now with the new version 3, all the features are back. The business plan now is to sell the app to enterprises at unaffordable prices rather to persuade consumers to pay a subscription to self host their syncing server

I wanted to try it but now they say docker version is discontinued, need to install the package to bare metal. Ugh... So I desisted and decided to stay with syncthing

Now with the news of the impending discontinuation of syncthing android app, everything changes. Without Android support, syncthing is no more irreplaceable for me.

So, has anyone tried Resilio Sync 3? Is it good?

 

I saw a 3d printer using plastic pellets instead of filament.

Is this a good idea? Because I never saw anyone doing this.

Seller says "in this way it won't run out of filament" but I have the impression of imprecise extrusions (machine was fitted with a big 0.8mm nozzle)

 

I got a really weird problem.

Two years ago bought a set of 4x DDR4 3200 16gb each, single sided and placed them in a ryzen 5600 desktop computer, which i almost never turned it off. It worked without issue.

This weekend I wanted to dust off the PC, so I took all the components out, replaced the thermal paste and so on.

Turned on the PC again, worked apparently without issues until after a while Linux was pissed about going out of memory. Out of memory? With 64gb of RAM? I checked with dmidecode -t memory and I saw that a channel was reporting completely empty.

Shut down the PC, reinserted the second channel, rebooted, saw 64gb. One hour later, kernel panic. Rebooted in memtest86+, error in memory. What? Removed one module, error. Removed two modules, no error. Switched the modules, no error. What??

Placed the two modules that are passing the test in another computer, error. Put back in the original computer, pass test. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Now I downclocked from 3200 to 2400 and everything seems working fine.

What could be? Have I been cursed?

After a few reinsertions do the slots degrade to a point that can't sustain 3200 anymore?

Intro: Webtoon is an app/website where (mostly Korean) comics are released in short episodes. Those episodes aren't released all at once but usually once a week, you have a free unlock a day and if you want you can have more by either watching an ad or by paying with coins, that are paid with real money. With the smallest purchase ($6), an episode can be unlocked with 3 coins (¢35) up to 7 (¢80). You can also skip the wait by paying with coins. I used it for years and I was ok by watching the ads at the end of each episode. It limited myself to one a day, otherwise I would scroll for hours. But, at the end of June 2024, they did the IPO, so that means ✨enshittification✨

So the guide on how to push away users to piracy:

  1. Have a scary reminder at the beginning of every episode that says that piracy is illegal. (I can't screenshot that without a rooted phone, it's blocked). This helps the user to have a daily notification that yes, this content is also available somewhere else and you're not bound to artificial limits.

  2. Put the last three episodes of a series started 3-4 years ago in perpetual paywall. No more "just wait one week to get the new episode". You want to see how that 200 episodes story that you're reading almost every day for 3 years ends? LOL pay $6 to buy a coins package!

  3. Now that the user is pissed that they can't know how the story ends, they'll just search it on the illegal sites, since over the past years they had to skip through 200 reminders that yes, this story is also available over there.

 

And it failed spectacularly.

We only needed a simple form, but we wanted to be fancy, so we used "nextcloud forms".

The docker image automatically updated the install to nextcloud 30, but the forms app requires nextcloud 29 or lower. No warning whatsoever. It's an official app, couldn't they wait that it was ready for NC 30 before launching it? The newsletter boasts "NC hub 9 is the best thing after sliced bread" yet i don't see any difference both in visual or performance compared to NC hub 2

Conclusion: we made our business to rely on nextcloud forms as a signup form, but the only reason we were using it was disabled who knows how many weeks ago.

 

I was accidentally locked out of home again, and I had to call a professional to open the lock.

But if someone was home, they could have just turned the knob of the door from inside. There's a device that can do that? It needs to do 3 full turns and it requires a bit of force to do that (armored door with iron bars that slide in every direction, so it has a big inertia to start)

I saw a ready solution on a store, the iseo x1r, but that costs 1000 euro + another 200 for the gateway (not mandatory but otherwise it uses proprietary Bluetooth protocol and so it can't talk with HA

 

Luglio 2024: devo fare una pratica all'ambasciata italiana. Mi dicono che ora c'è da prendere un appuntamento sul sito del ministero degli esteri.

Bene, primo appuntamento disponibile a settembre, ci sono solo 10 posti al giorno. Mi danno appuntamento alle 11.23.

Il giorno stabilito mi alzo alle 5, faccio 1000 km col treno e arrivo con 30 minuti di anticipo. Sorpresa! "Appuntamento alle 11.23” in realtà significa "entri alle 11.23 ma prima di te ci sono 100 persone senza appuntamento, forse ti facciamo alle 16"

Sono incazzato nero perché alle 15 ho il treno per tornare a casa, biglietto non rimborsabile ed è pure l'ultimo della giornata, se lo perdo mi tocca pure pagare una notte in albergo oltre a un altro biglietto......

Ho dato per scontato che se mi davano un appuntamento con orario preciso al minuto, mi avrebbero fatto passare entro un'ora, invece...

E dicono "per le emergenze anche senza appuntamento", eccheccazzo, 100 persone tutte con emergenza? Emergenza reale o semplicemente si sono svegliate ieri? Non possono passare dopo i 10 cretini che hanno preso l'appuntamento 2 mesi fa?

 

Many users bought Resident evil for iOS because it was working offline. Perfect for long trips. But a new update adds a mandatory DRM online check at start-up.

I wrote bought, but actually the word is rented. One day Capcom stops updating the games (and this is 100% guaranteed) and a few years later the "owner" gets "This app needs to be updated to run on this iPhone"

Meanwhile, people who pirated a cracked ipa, don't get any issue in playing the game offline. DRM exclusively hurts the paying customers.
