People don't understand that just like we collect trinkets, the ultrarich collect money. They'll never have enough, because there'll always be more to collect... everyone else be damned.

You bring up really, really points, and have piqued my interest in the device. The thing holding me back (besides OP's DOA :( ) is the security updates. How long will their OS truly be supported? They claim 5 years, but they're a young company and can't actually promise that. Is their bootloader unlocked? Because if so, I can try and load a custom OS, once their security updates are done. This last bit is what's held me back from most of these eink devices, actually. Maybe the display will become cheap enough that I can buy one, and outfit my own device... one day.

I gotta say, he was a trip to watch. If you have 10minutes, give this video a watch it was funny. Otherwise, Admiral Patrick was on point with the summary.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I don't either. From what you say, it sound great to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (2 children)

And they're contesting it! Little shite wankers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Ah ok, so instead of minimizing your own usage by uninstalling apps and such, you're getting help from the device's physical inability to use those apps and, thus, remove the temptations. Ok, cool! That's actually a pretty nice use of the tech!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Not sure. Maybe to then use the excuse of "well, chatgpt said so, so that's what I'd be" and have an out that way too. Honestly, it's far fetched, but does seem like something someone might do. But as OP pointed out, it's not really something Guy 4 would do, so my theory was wrong lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Interesting. It renders fine for me. I clicked on the colorful fediverse icon to look at the post on its home instance, and it looks good there, too. I wonder if your phone is rendering differently or if mine is lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Well there goes that theory lolol!

No, but seriously, I'm glad I was wrong, because it seems like a pretty rude way to shut down a conversion lol

What a “use case” when it’s at home?

I don't understand what you're asking. Can you elaborate?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Images you can hear lol

Cantook has 2/5 stars, but it actually looks really great

 

I was watching friends, and this scene came on. Instantly made me think of GNU plus Linux.

When you call the new sexy emergency services, but are connected with an unknown country instead, you do the next logical thing… you send an email.

Picture's not coming through. I'll try an embedded one...

 

Just found this sub, and I see it's not active anymore :(

Let's change that!

 

I have these wire shelves that are held together with these plastic caps. I'm reconfiguring the layout and ran out of caps. It's been a decade+/- since we got these, and I can't remember the name. Does anyone know where I can get more of these caps? Or, at least, what these caps and/or shelves are called, so I can go hunting for them?

 

I roasted a Sidamo G1 to right after first crack. I pulled one shot today, and it's amazing!

 

Hopefully you're having a better morning than putting friggin coffee beans in the friggin water reservoir.

That is all.

Original post was titled "Coffee machines reliability chart", but the image says that they're in the "espresso machine category".

The biggest swiss online seller makes charts for warranty claims. Basically: how many warranty claims does each brand have? This chart only shows the most popular brands of coffee machines sold on the site, but I still find it interesting.

 

Went to a wedding and they had a poet dressed like a fox. You give him a word and he types out a poem on an old-timey typewriter. Of course, I chose 'espresso'.

I asked him why a fox. So, he's a professional poet. One of his friends gave him a fox costume as a joke. He wore it to his friend's kid's birthday party (IIRC), and loved it. He started doing that as a side hustle (wearing the costume at parties, writing poems), and later, started doing it full time. He says that it's fun for everyone involved, and allows him to get creative with very little in terms of overextended expectations. REALLY nice guy!

Here he is:

 

Hey everyone!

We had a bit of a trolling incident yesterday, and I wanted to address it real quick.

We are a kind and accepting community for those who love, want to love, are getting into, or are interested in espresso. We have no room for trolls or unkind behavior.

Because of the user who reported this incident (thank you!!), the offender has been banned from this wonderful community and, thanks to Jerry, the Instance owner (don't forget to support him), banned from this Instance altogether.

I thought the Instance and Community expectations were understood, considering the ambiance of Lemmy, but I was wrong. As a result, I have added a Rules section in the Sidebar. If you haven't already, please take a look, and let me know if those rules should change in any way.

Together, we can rid this world of trolls and goblins, as we hunt for that Perfect Pull.

Stay caffeinated, my fellow Espressons!

 

This little sack thing was on the tomato plant today. When it was touched, these little worm-looking things popped out, like a spider sack of worms.

  • What are they?
  • Why are they on the plant?
  • Are they harmful to the plant or to us?

Thanks!

 

In reading the rules and pinned posts, it doesn't seem to me that my question is out of line with the intention of the community. However, if I am mistaken, please remove the post and accept my sincere apologies.


So, I've been getting a lot of 429 errors as of late. Today, I came across this post by one of the Teddit instance admins. The reason for the 429, is the same API restrictions that killed the apps. Teddit is dying.

I still use Reddit for searches, unfortunately, considering much of the world's IT knowledgebase is on there. Since before the Reddit spez-out, I was using Teddit on PC or Slide/Infinity on mobile. Now that Teddit is being so severely limited by the API debacle that it has instances shutting down, I find myself asking: what Reddit front-ends still work?

Regrettably, I can't not use Reddit for work, though I don't participate or even log in, but I REALLY don't want to give Reddit the traffic.
