I live in a 1000 square foot two bedroom condo. When it gets below 20° f, which does a lot during the winter, I have to use the auxiliary heat on my heat pump unit.
That’s 7.5 kW.
So just to stay warm during the night, when solar stops working, I would need 3-5 Power Walls?
The main subs or sublemmies or whatever they’re called on here have enough users that it’s a perfect alternative to Reddit.
Little niche subreddits, like my favorite gaybros and askgaybros, just a few dozen users and I’m going back to Reddit for that.
Are they supporting it so that they can gimp it?
We support the right to repair! Starting now all keycaps will be replaceable. Anything on the motherboard is off limits though or the display or the battery or the ports or the camera.
Does cutting their fleet mean they stopped operating or they reduced the size of their fleet?
One of the crashes was a car running a red light and hitting the Cruise vehicle.
Cruise and Waymo have self-driving cars, without safety drivers, driving around cities right now.
We know what hardware it takes - More than just cameras and some premapping is required.
I thought after 2008 that we had finally gotten over our large car addiction.
They’re so addicted to SUVs now that Ford doesn’t even make a car other than the Mustang. Their entire lineup is SUVs.
Here are the subs I used to go to…
When I go back to Reddit, on desktop, all of those are operating as they normally do, with no perceptible change on the amount of posts.
There’s two problems…
There is no easy to use singular Reddit replacement. (The fediverse is not easy to use to normal people.)
Reddit is such a large social media site now that all the nerds getting angry and leaving doesn’t matter. 10 years ago this change would have killed Reddit, but now that normal people like my mom are on Reddit they don’t give a shit about using the official Reddit app, in fact they were probably already using it.
Why would you not be super excited for this?
This literally extends coverage to the entire world. Movies will have to come up with a another excuse then - oh I have no signal.
When you’re hiking that trail in the middle of nowhere and you slip and break your leg you can just point your phone to the sky and get help.
Why is Chrome’s performance so much better than Chromium?
The average Twitter user has no idea what Mastodon is.
Facebook doesn’t use e2e.
There is a private chat e2e feature, but then your chats don’t show up on PC.
Why do Linux nerds that care about this sort of stuff hate snaps so much?
Is it the concept of snaps / flatpaks that is the issue or snaps specifically because Canonical is behind them?
I know literally nothing about how they work except I installed the VLC snap and it’s fine.
I couldn’t install Parsec (a remote desktop game streaming app) because of a missing dependency (an old version of lib-something codec that wasn’t in my newer version of Ubuntu). I spent like an hour trying to figure out how to take the 18.04 version and add it to 22.10. I don’t know Linux at all so I wasn’t making much progress. Someone, not the developers of Parsec, made a flatpak and it magically worked.
I was afraid that because the flatpak was made by some random guy I couldn’t really trust it. I looked inside the flatpak and it’s seems to be nothing except for the Parsec deb coming straight from the official Parsec URL and that libcodec thing that was causing a problem.
So from my perspective, not knowing the technical details or politics, what’s the problem?
So do they think that CPAP machines are just suicide devices?
You’re delusional.
The fediverse stuff is just a bullet point on a sales sheet, Facebook doesn’t give a shit about federating with Lemmy or Mastodon or whatever.
The reason they don’t give a shit is they already have a user base that is multiple times larger than Lemmy and Mastodon combined. Also normal people don’t even know what those things are. My mom doesn’t know what Mastodon is, she does know what Twitter and threads is.
Other than GPS coordinates, what’s the problem?
It’s pretty standard stuff that every app collects.
I’m actually asking what specific thing is the problem.
Are you going to buy me a new heat pump?
Also why doesn’t anyone make a hyper efficient central system? I’ve only seen those hyper efficient units as mini splits.
Are you going to replace my 2016 Sonata I spent $13k on buying in 2018 with a $55k EV with car to grid for me?
What happens if it’s dark and cold for multiple days? I just can’t drive because my car emptied out running my minisplits?
