We’ve had two floor vacuums from Dyson and they were fantastic. Totally dependable, lasted for years and years even though they were hand me downs from our In-laws. As they should - they aren’t cheap.

So we decided getting a cordless Dyson and it’s been, OK I guess? The gasket for the cyclones was improperly installed and lost its seal, and then a catch broke off, so that the dust bucket would just slip off.

Customer support was friendly and quick to help, at least.

I remembered using Vivaldi a while back, I think I’ll look into it again.

So I haven’t been following the Firefox thing that closely. Fennec isn’t an alternative because it uses Firefox’s Sync and Brave is out of the question because it’s crypto Chrome?

That CO2 plays a role in warming the atmosphere was proposed 200 years ago in 1824 by Joseph Fourier.

In 1896, Svante Arrhenius calculated the first prediction of global warming, which still holds up to current models.

In 1901, the term “greenhouse effect” was coined by Nils Gustaf Elholm.

Just a friendly reminder that the concept of man made global warming is literally centuries old.

So what is the advantage to this over something like Bazzite?

Godamnit! At that time, we were visiting family stateside. It was like the window let in a chill, like a rug pulled out from under you, it was tangible that something in the very fabric of the USA had changed.

I remember telling my grandpa, who fled soviet Bulgaria in WWII, that if this goes on, they can make anyone their enemy. 9/11 turned the hate siphon on full blast, and I was certain they would turn on their own.

So happy he didn’t live to see what the Republicans became.

Looks like you’re getting ready for a night of fine dining drinking?

If you’re a motorcycle rider then please consider something abrasion resistant with protectors.

I didn’t ask for anything and all I got was a 12" i3 with 8gb of RAM.

As a enterprise architect I understand that I spend most of my time in Teams, outlook, PowerPoint and excel (damn, it hurts reading that) but I also often have to work on, you know, enterprise sized diagrams.

And the text rendering (at least for me with flatpaks) is completely fuzzy garbage.

DNS calls are definitely cached. You’ll have to wait a few days until your TV refreshes DNS entries.

Congratulations! So, how does the TV work with the adblocker set up?

Why not try it out? Can’t get worse, anyway. Hopefully it’s something you can find out with a quick visual examination, like a blown fuse or tube, or maybe a blown capacitor.

I’ve been riding the high of fixing it all day.

The best kind of high! I tell people that fixing things is a super power. At least it makes me feel like it.

Wow, two yolks for the price of one!

So happy RN that I installed CalyxOS on my daughters phone. Um… but that means it might explode in her hands?

Bingo!

Fuck Train Sim World. They release regular updates even though all have exactly the same base gameplay. It’s a pain figuring out which DLC requires some other DLC, or if the DLC you got is still compatible with your version of the game, or gets improved, or which version of the game has what included.

Played it for a few hours because it’s a Suda51 game. And because it’s a Suda51 game it’s style over substance and waaay over the top. But in this case they style wasn’t enough to engage me the whole way through.

Me too. Son’s dyslexic and I’m noticing a lot of ADHD traits in him. And it all reminds me a lot of how I was and it just explains a lot of the things in my life. Just got to get around to finding a therapist for him and me…
