Same. I worked in an electronics store. This was one of the manufacturers where products broke so often we had a separate bin for their broken products.
But it was also one of the “refund anytime, no questions asked” manufacturers where we could just say how many value of products we got returned and they would just refund the amount to us. No pesky RMA process, no repairs, just take it back whenever the customer is unhappy and throw it away.
Everyone’s saying the need to sleep. That goes a bit too far IMO. Who knows it would work out as we think it to be? Maybe the 33% we sleep will just be reduced off our lifespan with nothing won.
Also, honestly, even if that wouldn’t be the case - I wouldn’t want to not sleep at all. It’s like a regular break from life. Even if employers wouldn’t exploit this, I don’t want to be awake forever.
Now, here’s my proposal: We still need to sleep, but we can control falling asleep and waking up like it’s a muscle. Lay in bed and fall asleep anytime. No more falling-asleep issues for anyone, no more sleepless nights.
And also, we’d have a perfect inner clock and the ability to choose when we wake up. Fall asleep at 11 PM, have to get up at 7? Great, you know exactly when 8hrs are over and are able to just wake up, no alarm needed.
Yeah that or aliens.
Huh. Thanks for answering. But this kind of breaks the intentions of a federated construct, doesn’t it?
In the worst case, I’d just block people from that instance, but not defederate it. That way my users could still interact with their community but their users couldn’t disrupt my instance.
Many smaller instances have defederated from lemmy.world, for example
Why?
Thank you! I don’t have apple devices but Sideberry comes very close to what I’m looking for, I think it will help me organize my tabs.
I have lots of different things I’m doing, not simultaneously but all of them regularly.
I have a hobby for which im using ~5-10 different sites regularly. And another hobby with ~3-5 sites.
Then I have a business where I keep all relevant tabs open, which are quite a few as well. Then all the general stuff (emails etc). And I probably still forgot something.
I’m still far away from the 100s, but I do keep around 20-30 tabs open all the time, and that doesn’t include any temporary tabs that I do close right after using it. I have them all sorted and separated using Firefox’ containers feature though.
Yes I could work with bookmarks too, but that has a few downsides. For example, for my business I am working with different Google drive folders for each project. It would be annoying to keep the bookmarks up to date or to navigate to the relevant folder each time when I can just leave the tab open and continue where I left off. Another example is one of my hobbies where I use the same 10 sites every time, so I’d have to open 10 sites when I do the hobby and then close them when I’m done, which seems redundant to me for just the benefit of not having tabs open I’m not using at the moment.
So ultimately, to me it’s way easier to have an overview of 30 open tabs than managing endless bookmarks that I need to keep up to date.
What I would prefer is a feature where I can have different environments and all tabs of that environment open and close automatically. So I say I want the environment “work” and my 10 work tabs open, then I work, then I switch the environment profile and all current work tabs’ updated URLs get saved and the other environment’s tabs open. If there’s anything like that I’d be thankful for a recommendation.
That’s the only way I see me not having dozens of tabs open all the time honestly.
I think most browsers do this. IIRC Chrome puts a “:D” there if you exceed 99
I use it because otherwise I’d use ublock anyways. So it either does it thing and if not, it’s the same result as ublock.
This feels like reverse psychology on a little kid.
“That’s it, I’m not tracking you anymore! >:(”
“Oooh nooo, what have I done! Oh how much I would wish to be tracked :(”
“No, you won’t convince me to change my mind >:(”
“Oh well, guess I’ll have to live without being tracked, what a shame that is.”
In the short term, I would think so.
In the long run, it makes it less appealing for companies to advertise, because they would have larger costs while having less sales. That, in return, hurts Google as advertisers don’t want to pay as much anymore. If 80% of all users used this extension, advertisers would have to pay more than ever, while having only 20% of all users can be reached (simplified, of course).
Or in short, it’s designed to hurt the system as a whole, not specific companies.
I give donations, but way less than I’d like (less in terms of quantity of recipients, not the total financial quantity).
What I’d love (not only for FOSS, but also stuff like podcasts and other things I’m donating to regularly) would be a service where I can set a budget and select the software and tools I use and it splits it up automatically.
I don’t mind donating, but I hate managing it, having dozens of small transactions for it, and I feel like I’m forgetting to donate to like 90+% of the stuff I’m using. Also, with payment provider’s fees it’s often not worth it to donate <1€ a month, so bundling transactions would be way more effective - for me as the user as well as the recipients who’d get one transaction once a month from said service rather than hundreds of small ones.
I never really understood why e.g. Patreon doesn’t offer this. You can’t expect perks with this because the perks probably will start higher than what’s the breakdown of each recipient woild be at a reasonable budget, but the advantage would be that (mostly) everyone would get a piece of your cake, rather than like 5 of the 500 different creators/developers/… you’re using content/software of. Also, you could reduce or increase the monthly budget depending on your financial situation, rather than cancelling or modifying dozens of small subscriptions.
Yeah, I assume if they took down Wikipedia itself then hundreds of copies would pop up all over the place, probably hosted elsewhere, and one of them would become the primary replacement over time.
Media might be lost to some extent, but I doubt there’s any way you can take the text/information/metadata off the internet at all, and that’s the most important aspect.
Took me a while not to read that as

Falls ernstgemeinte Frage: Doch, natürlich gelten ausgeschilderte Limits auch für Radfahrer.
Es gibt Ausnahmen bei impliziten Limits (also nicht explizit zB mit “30” beschilderten Limits), zB gelten die innerörtlichen 50km/h ab Ortsschild nicht für Radfahrer. Andere implizite Limits wie Schrittgeschwindigkeit im verkehrsberuhigten Bereich wiederum aber schon.
Wouldn’t be surprised if the kid playing on the mat would be part of the print as well.
Der einzige Typ, der das behauptet, ist nur leider derjenige, der das dort hochgeladen hat.
Oh - ja gut :D das hab ich nicht gesehen. Mein Fehler.
“vnnd ihro” ist ja mal eindeutig Schwachsinn.
Deshalb schrieb ich, dass es so klingen soll, nicht, dass es tatsächlich mittelalterliche Schreibweise ist.
Keine Ahnung, mag auch tatsächlich KI-Kauderwelsch sein, sah für mich nur gewollt so aus (zumindest wenn man sich nicht damit befasst, wie damals wirklich geschrieben wurde).
Heute ist eh Sonntag, da wird das Carsten gelassen.
Around 10 years ago I worked in an electronics store. You know, when actual small smartphones were still a thing (think S4 Mini and stuff like that).
Every day people came looking for a small phone. Always were very interested in the smaller devices. And yet most never bought one, they eventually decided for a larger one. For each new Samsung series during that time, I’d guess it was about ~50% of people interested in the Mini series, but only ~5% of our actual sales were the Minis.
It’s crazy and I learned a lot about people and their purchasing behavior back then. People often think they want something and never buy it and vice versa. It’s interesting, from a psychological view. In my current business it’s the same - people keep asking for stuff, and once you offer it, nobody cares about it.
That’s probably why Samsung kept on making these Minis until the S5 despite them not seeling. Customers kept just giving them feedback that didn’t reflect their behavior.
