  • Thank you!

    Didn’t know how to access the modlog

    Regarding the thread in a conservative community:
    Well, I was trolling a bit, but I didn’t say anything bad about being gay or something.
    I just made fun of Trump
    I can live with being banned there, but wanted to check why an upvote in a science community didn’t got through, as I can’t remember that I said anything stupid there.
    Will go and check now, after you showed me how
    Thanks again :⁠-⁠)

    Edit: either I’m stupid or I got banned from communities, I didn’t even interact with.
    Seems I’ve hurt some feelings of a mod of multiple communities - at least that’s my current interpretation






  • And we’re having less and less deadly injured people on developed countries (excluding the USA, if the statistics are correct I’ve read).

    Tesla’s autopilot seems to be a step backwards with a future promise of being better than human drivers.

    But they slimmed down their sensors to fucking simple 2D cams.
    That’s just cheaping out on the cost of Tesla owners - but also of completely uninvolved people around a self driving Tesla, that didn’t take the choice to trust this tech, that’s living more on PR, than actual results




  • I loved my Pulse 15 (Gen 1) from Tuxedo

    It was a performance monster and still had amazing battery life.
    But as others have said, they only take some finished Clevo models - like most small distributors, who can’t afford their own factory.

    But they verify that everything runs with Linux, else they sometimes patch stuff.

    And I need to highlight their support!
    After years with my Pulse 15 the battery became a pillow, because I used a USB C charger that wasn’t working right (always switched on and off, which killed the battery)
    Pretty much without questions asked I got a new battery for free.

    Now I have it to my nephew, who enjoys Minecraft on this laptop (still Linux), but the CMOS battery was dead.
    Got that one for free as well after warranty

    So, I can’t really complain about them.
    Actually the opposite.

    But I still settled for a Framework 16, because I wanted something different and the models at that time weren’t fitting my use case…
