That's the only way I'd ever consider having another customer service job such as that again. Even then I still wouldn't like it.

Hope they are able to unionize, and that it starts a trend because most of the other auto parts stores are garbage too.

Now make it into onomatopoeia

What does it sound like?

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 13 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Well that fucking sucks. Looks like we'll probably never see a HLD2. Damn shame.

This seems like it might only cause a temporary fragmentation (hopefully) until everyone eventually switches over to the new version right?

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

Because the rear of it is very pointy, right? Lol.

I didn't realize my comment would be so contentious, but if it makes any difference, I do think this is a cool project.

That's a good point. Hopefully one day they will get to the point where they are better looking, or maybe we will all just get used to something different 🤷‍♂️

I still think this is a cool thing, even if the style is off-putting to me personally.

Cool but can we just get a regular non-spacecraft looking one instead?

[–] technomad@slrpnk.net 30 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Sinister activity going on here for sure. 100 percent training sleeper agents or some shit...

So for your first point, I completely agree. The only time I think I'd be ok with this behavior is if it was at the very end of the page/article (which I'm not sure any of them are). Some are so egregious (especially the websites that have more than one) that I will turn on reader view as a potential mitigation.

As to the second point, I'm pretty sure I've seen options for 'load tabs in the background' in browser settings. It would definitely be worth looking into if that's something that bothers you. Personally, it's a non-issue for my specific circumstances.

The second one, especially, is very pleasing to look at. Were they harvested?

 

Hi, I am just wanting some recommendations on a basic microinverter (with safety cutoff protections built in). Essentially, 'balcony solar.'

Just to make sure I am hooking things up properly/safely, lets assume I'm beginner experience level. I have a basic understanding of the general concepts, but not much real world experience. The two panels that I have are 100 watt panels. I've attached a picture for reference:

 

In the window that pops up when replying to someone, the viewport that shows the original comment is obscured if it exceeds the size of the container that it's in. There is a sort of fade away effect towards the bottom, which is fine, but the problem is that there doesn't appear to be any way to scroll or expand the comment to view the full size.

I just thought this was cool and wanted to share it here. It looks like there's an instance up now, go add stuff to it if you can!

Hi, I'd like some recommendations for recording gameplay clips on my Ayn Odin 2 max.

I'm really only looking for something that saves a cache of about 5~10 minutes worth of recording in the background, that allows me to save it to a default location if I choose to save it. Is there something like this for android?

I've noticed that my secondary monitor usually doesn't turn on initially. In order to get it to turn on, I can do a restart after the initial boot and then it will turn on. Any idea what might be causing this or how to fix it? The monitor is hooked up through the laptop's hdmi port.

Fedora 42

KDE Plasma

Wayland

Nvidia RTX 4070

 

So, I'm hoping to reduce the substantial screen tearing that I'm encountering while watching videos.

One of the suggestions that I have found is to enable wayland, which did help quite a bit (this is the guide I found). However, I've decided I don't really want to use gnome. Gnome seems great, but I've already become accustomed to using cosmic.

Apparently pop os is in a transitionary phase and will eventually update to wayland as the default, but I'm just wondering if there's other desktop environments I should be considering? I see that Fedora now comes with a KDE cosmic variant, but I don't know if this would be any better or not.

Edit:

I ended up installing kde plasma standard desktop environment (which was listed here). Upon booting into the login screen there's a big on-screen keyboard. Hit enter to bypass it. In the dropdown menu on the top left of the screen, there is an option for 'pop on wayland'

So far, everything seems to be working good. I had to change the steam client to the 'proton hotfix' to get one of my games to play.

Upon going back to the feed page from a post page, the feed tends to load in at a different point (higher up) than where it was before. This results in a lot of repetitive scrolling.

Also, I noticed that (when new content is being loaded in?) the scrolling gets stuck in the same spot. Scrolling kind of just glitches on the same spot until it gets past it and then resumes as normal.

 

Hey, I noticed that the expand/collapse button tends to block text sometimes. Is there any way that it could be made transparent when hovering the mouse over it? Also, the hover text should say 'collapse' when the text has already been expanded.

 

These are often found on vacuum cleaner cables and such.

I'd like one to clip onto a two wire (two pronged, no ground) flat cable like this one:

Anything like that exist yet?
