- Comment on ‘AI is already eating its own’: Prompt engineering is quickly going extinct 1 day ago:
Hiring someone who’s a “prompt engineer” is like hiring someone who says they’re good at googling.
- Comment on USB 2.0 is 25 years old today — the interface standard that changed the world 1 week ago:
Esata was so cool for like 3 years. I needed more storage fast on my laptop and having only USB 2.0 that was a no go. But esta gave me one cable to an external SSD that did power and fast data.
Then USB 3.0 came out, then UASP, and that completely killed esata.

Because you’re not supposed to.
- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 3 weeks ago:
Pulling out of the driveway does sound pretty excessive to me.
If you turn on the right turn signal but you’re going in reverse is it pointed in the direction the ass of your car is going, or the direction you’re going to be facing? There’s no non confusing way to use them in reverse, and your reverse lights are enough of a sign that you’re probably gonna get in the way.

- Comment on Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential) 5 weeks ago:
A Deck has two touchpads that work as mice.
And they suck trying to use them for an FPS.

We’ve been raised in an individualist society.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed 5 weeks ago:
Only time will tell.
No way in hell Nintendo would come out and talk about exploits in their game console. Also if they knew about it they’d fix it first.
- Comment on Why Chrome only? 5 weeks ago:
If this was a web view they wouldn’t even need this screen since it could just done in the “app” itself instead of needing to open an external browser.

- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 5 weeks ago:
Are those qi2 chargers or qi1? The magnets make a huge difference.
- Comment on Apple’s AI isn’t a letdown. AI is the letdown | CNN Business 5 weeks ago:
No I think Apple AI is perfect. Please never improve the notification summaries. In fact I want them to go back to the launch summaries, they’re not as good as they used to.

Bonus: the landline was already wired so just don’t unplug it ever and use it like before.

- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 5 weeks ago:
That’s not physically possible.
But it is extremely efficient for what it is. The first number I found on google said it’s 95% efficient.
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 5 weeks ago:
If it’s completely misaligned yes. But there’s a wide spectrum between too far off to even turn on, and perfectly aligned.
This is what magsafe/qi 2 fixes by including magnets which should have been there from the start.
- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 1 month ago:
Radiowaves are not free real estate. Every country has their own laws on what frequencies you’re allowed to use for what.
2.4ghz frequencies are basically as unregulated as they can get in the US, so that’s why wifi used that for the longest time. I’m not sure what devices used 5ghz before, but they took that frequency for wifi. You have to fight for every mhz you can get in radio waves.

0% battery isn’t actually 0%. There’s still plenty of juice to run all the cameras, cell, etc.
- Comment on Anon is chasing an old high 1 month ago:
I like how they specified the xo-1 lcd. Everyone knows the one laptop per child computer from like 2010 is the most relatable device in 2025…… 15 years later… fuck.
- Comment on Why can’t HVAC be made smarter? 1 month ago:
They can, they’re called smart thermostats. They need to know the outside and inside temp and honestly the easiest way to do that is to just connect them to the internet. Plus they’re even better when they know it’s going to be cold all day vs cold for half the day, then the sun comes out and is really hot the second half.
- Comment on what instances allow you to follow users? 1 month ago:
Institutions could be the only time I’d be interested in following “a person”. But at the same time they could just make their own community that only they can post in.
- Comment on what instances allow you to follow users? 1 month ago:
That’s also why I use lemmy and not twatter/mastadon/any other clones. I’m not interested in some dudes random train of thoughts, I want X communities for Y interests I have. Not every person has exactly the same interests as me and I don’t really want to be bothered seeing that stuff.
- Comment on Anon judges books by their covers 1 month ago:
Judging them by the first 5 minutes of interaction is the cover. As a fast food employee you’re not going to learn that they just got fired from their job and the divorce was just completed today and the wife gets all the kids.

Sometimes they don’t be like it is, but it do.
- Comment on The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025 1 month ago:
In stock, but not at the right price. MSRP is $250. The cards I’m seeing are $350 and up.
For $250 it’s a good card. For $350 not so much.
- Comment on How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? 1 month ago:
That’s a ruggedized phone, most people don’t want a phone that’s twice as thick and doesn’t provide anywhere near twice the battery.
- Comment on The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025 1 month ago:
It should still be better. Or at least cheaper.

‘If they are detecting outright fraud, not just bad programs, not just ignoble programs, not just programs that don’t support the national interest of the United States, if they’re finding fraud, then, absolutely’ the wrongdoers should be prosecuted, Rep. Self said.
Big emphasis on the if. If there is actual fraud then yes they should face charges.
