just looking around for now
- Comment on Whoops 7 months ago:
fully agree, both have flaws and advantages. but both are better than phillips.
- Comment on Whoops 7 months ago:
until someone tries to use a phillips bit on a pozidriv screw.
- Comment on Whoops 7 months ago:
the sizes are definetley hard to figure out, but the “if it wiggles, it’s too small” rule applies to torx as well.
- Comment on Whoops 7 months ago:
phillips doesn’t scale any better. i’m actually glad whenever i see torx on small devices instead.
- Comment on Whoops 7 months ago:
pozidriv is pretty cool, but annoying to use since people confuse it with phillips all the time so you end up with a lot of stripped screws.
torx is the way to go. their sizing is odd, but it transfers torque well and is wear-resistant.

- Comment on Will people show off their old computers and phones in say, 30 or 50 years in the future? 10 months ago:
my yaris is 20 years old, and it shows no signs of wear. that thing will last another 30-40 years if i wanted to keep it for that long.
also, i think fairphones seriously have a chance of surviving for that long, since the battery is easily replaceable. it being made during the phone spec plateau also helps.

- Comment on Why were online subscriptions once rare, but now they are everywhere? 10 months ago:
the problem is they don’t offer the possibility of a “permanent” license anymore AFAIK.
- Comment on What's the best way to protect outdoor faucets in the winter? 10 months ago:
this is what i was taught by my dad. seems logical too.
- Comment on Why do some websites have a "Continue Reading" button? 10 months ago:
wow. not a web developer myself, but that would’ve been the only justification for this besides farming engagement for advertisers.
- Comment on Why do some websites have a "Continue Reading" button? 10 months ago:
while data collection and advertisement is a big part of it, they probavly try to “save” on bandwidth, you might not read the entire article.
- Comment on No wonder Jesus didn't get a fair trial... 10 months ago:
all powerful people should do this, suffer in poverty for a few months every couple of years.
- Comment on Are there typically limits to the size that ROMs can be when it comes to emulators? 10 months ago:
AFAIK, the contents of the cartridge was entirely loaded into RAM, so one bank of ROM chips needed to be a specific size. the cartridge of course gets much more expensive if you double the storage, so it wasn’t done very often.
youtu.be/ZWQ0591PAxM they mention switching storage at 1:10.
- Comment on Are there typically limits to the size that ROMs can be when it comes to emulators? 10 months ago:
the NES had some titles where there were two ROM banks where access to one of them were switched when a certain part of the game was reached. this had to do with the limited RAM of the system i believe. you could technically do this but hundreds and thousands of times.
technically, it would also be possible to increase the RAM capacity and make it emulator-only. it has been an emulator detection feature to try to access a memory adress outside of the possible capacity.

- Comment on When people say that apps are stealing your data, what exactly does that mean? 10 months ago:
they mostly do it either because they can sell the data, or can display “more relevant” ads to you, so they can charge advertisers more.
- Comment on I got this popup ad on my TV **while watching a DVD** 10 months ago:
try telefunken, cheap TVs with shitty software. as long as it’s oled it won’t matter very much.
- Comment on Electrician job 10 months ago:
you need at least 100V DC or 50V AC to break the skin’s resistance, then there has to be at least 30 mA. which isn’t hard to do with a body resistance of a couple kΩ.

- Comment on Always look on the bright side of life 10 months ago:
then i must have read it wrong, sorry. people are generally not taking someone else being optimistic very well, so i assumed you were attacking me for it.
- Comment on Always look on the bright side of life 10 months ago:
my plan ist to live a happy and healthy life. living with my parents and going to work hinders me from doing exactly that. i might have the opprtunity to not have to work, so i will gladly do that.
feel free to continue living your hateful life. but i won’t. i want to change.
- Comment on Always look on the bright side of life 10 months ago:
this is actually my plan (minus the sex 3 times a day of course) for later in my life, ideally without the going to prison part.

- Comment on I got this popup ad on my TV **while watching a DVD** 10 months ago:
since the processing power doesn’t matter and it’s not being connected to the internet, it can be any chinese underspecced tv as long as the screen itself is good.
