They’re cheap because they use extensive tracking to make up the rest of their money

Don’t worry that wouldn’t happen with such a small battery. You would not feel anything at all.
You can wet your fingers and touch a 9V alkaline as an experiment, or touch that to your tongue - this has more than twice the voltage of the cell typically used in earphones - Comment on borger 4 days ago:
You can’t get ‘electrocuted’ from an earphone battery, it’s not nearly powerful enough. A car battery (lead-acid) could in some scenarios deliver unpleasant shocks.

I still don’t understand IPv4 fully after all these years, I’m not sure I’ll ever bother with v6 for my hone network.

Work around the patent by making them only moderately soaking
- Comment on Hail corporate (they did it tho) 2 weeks ago:
If Lego inserted themselves into the convo, I would agree.
DA had posted the picture with Lego first, and they’ve responded with a simple gesture. PR stunt? Sure. Does it hurt anyone? - Comment on Hail corporate (they did it tho) 2 weeks ago:
A little too cynical maybe.
Doing a good thing for your own benefit doesn’t change the deed. Everyone does it, we aren’t selfless creatures by nature. - Comment on Im a weekly showerer 3 weeks ago:
Depending on where you live, that’s not only unnecessary but also not great for the skin.
- Comment on World's longest coastal path opens in England to the public 2 months ago:
Are there any good sites showing all such paths in the UK? Or just any recommend walks or hikes
- Comment on NVIDIA Says You're "Completely Wrong" About DLSS 5 Being Slop - Gamers Nexus 2 months ago:
With all these companies having presold future hardware, data centers and compute to each other, it’s a bit of a mess.

As vulture bee honey is derived from animal flesh, it is not suitable for vegetarians.
Phew that’s good to know! Nearly gourged myself on some corpse honey

- Comment on Talk about hat hair... 2 months ago:
Top hat? Too fancy
A bowler? Too performative
Fishing bucker? Too country
Panama? It’s not holidays
Stetson? I’m not cool enough
Baseball cap? Too casual
Flat cap? Perfection - Comment on Anon introduces himself 2 months ago:
Both are very important. Not being able to speak in front of a group can change the trajectory of your entire life. Children especially should have as many paths open as possible for when they’re ready to decide which one to take.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I would again suggest you check your particular packaging. It should say whether to wash or not.
Sushi rice is supposed to be very sticky, I don’t wash any rice where I live. - Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
In an era of overprocessed foods engineered to be cheap and look good, adding back micronutrients wherever possible still makes sense I think.
It’s definitely done where I live. - Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Can, doesn’t mean it should. Rice should be cooked in just enough water for it to be absorbed or boiled off. Many types of rice are packaged with added minerals and shouldn’t be washed (check your packaging, you loose this if you have to drain).
Even the cheapest rice cookers use clever physics to fully automate this process and make it come out perfect every time.

Movies often align to the popular perception if a thing rather than reality. Otherwise you’re watching a documentary.

Can I send this to the person reviewing my PR’s
- Comment on No More Neutral ⚛ 2 months ago:
If we’re all entangled, is anyone?
- Comment on K.I.S.S. 2 months ago:
It’s a user friendly design.
2026-02-23 12:01 is so much ‘harder’ to parse at a glance than 1 minute ago.
Obviously this doesn’t care about archival or screenshots, it’s for the user looking at the live page.I think it would be nice if sites offered option to toggle, but most have no reason for the extra investment.
- Comment on Save as PDF 3 months ago:
That’s not true, although nothing can read it with the accuracy of Excel due to the complexity and lack of documentation on certain features.
- Comment on Save as PDF 3 months ago:
That’s doesn’t seem unreasonable to me.
It’s a hugely important format used by countless archived documents.
We can’t just find out one day that nothing can read xlsx. - Comment on do most people really like the taste and smell of eggs? 3 months ago:
Supermarket food is so devoid of flavour. I understand for food not local or out of season, but things like tomatoes being bred for zase and looks…
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 3 months ago:
Drinking is so ingrained in human culture that people often get into it because of social pressure.
That’s why it’s given special treatment in comparison with drugs like weed, even though it’s more dangerous. - Comment on Nova Launcher unashamedly inserts malware ads into your home screen now. 3 months ago:
Total is truly amazing, especially for a foldable, no match. Few small long standing bugs though, maybe I should take the initiative to report those
- Comment on ai generated logo 4 months ago:
- Logo is an illustration. Logotype can be all text, but even then it’s usually highly stylised.
- One should have a vector of their logo, but it doesn’t really matter unless it’s going to print. Logos shouldn’t be larger than a thumbprint anywhere else.
Obviously AI will output terrible logos, can’t agree more, but some people are selling stuff from their garage and simply have many other priorities before spending on a logo.
For those people, having anything is better than nothing. - Comment on Lawks 4 months ago:
I have never seen birds diddle, and at this point, it seems more likely theyre drones deployed by the government

Wow, I remember having a revolver, it was loads of fun as a kid to actually have the shots go off. Probably infuriating to the adults, which may be why I rarely had any.

That’s kinda sad. They should be taken care of.
