Doesn’t LG use WebOS?

Or at least they did three years ago when I wanted to buy a TV but everything was back ordered to he’ll…

Them’s hunting eyes.

Yes, I got a lot out of reddit, and I miss it sometimes. Lemmy doesn’t seem to have enough of the right people yet to generate enough high quality content to compare to reddit.

Y-combinator’s HN has been sort of filling that void for me though.

I gave up trying to make Mastodon work. Two minutes of scrolling and I always end up closing it with an overwhelming feeling of cringe.

Mind you I could never get in to Twitter either. Maybe it’s just the format? It reinforces ego/personal brand over the value of the actual content.

God forbid our endless feed of cat pictures and black and white telephone poles gets polluted!

DataGrip is the one JetBrains IDE I can’t work without and continue to pay for. I’d love to find a pure OSS alternative, but there’s nothing else like it.

The thing about forests around cities is they tend to get cut down and paved over. That’s much harder to do with mountains.

Alkaline batteries lose voltage as they drain, so 1.5V is at full charge but it drops down to about 1.2V very quickly and then stays at 1.0V - 1.2V for most of the alkaline battery’s operating life.

NiMH batteries tend to consistently stay at their nominal voltage (1.2V) through their entire charge.

So in other words, if you have devices that really expect exactly 1.5V per battery, they would only work with alkalines at the very top of their charge. Nowadays most non-garbage circuits should be designed to work just fine with anything above 1V per battery.

I haven’t played this one, but I wish someone would do another “Inindo, way of the ninja” game. I have really fond memories of that one. I think it was a spinoff in the Nobunaga’s Ambition series. Looking at the screenshots now (from 30 years ago!!) it has… uhh… aged, a lot.

The show was not great, but the epic premise is awesome. So I thought I’d just go read the books, assuming the source material was the good stuff.

But wow, turns out Asimov can’t write a decent paragraph. The story and ideas are buried under page after page of cringeworthy dialogue and pointless descriptions of gee whiz gadgets.
