Nebula has mostly quality content and no "shorts", where as YT even without shorts has mountains of garbage.

This is even worse than I expected. I expected another delay, or a autonomous taxi with a remote driver constantly monitoring at best. This is no better than a regular taxi.

I was thinking at first that this would lead to even more aggressive "app optimization" where it would refuse to notify alarms you've explicitly set due to battery life concerns.

But instead there's a better way, which I hope manufacturers will take. Perhaps smartphone chips can stop chasing absolute peak performance and instead focus on good performance at a reasonable power budget.

Of course the biggest problem is bloated software but idk how we can fix that.

  • Can do stuff that isn't just for gaming or content consumption

Could it cruise at 55mph all day though? I think a 250cc 4-stroke works better here.

The thing is that the Harley-like low rider style bikes are best if you're short due to the low seat height. If that's not your cup of tea then you can go with a standard bike.

I started on an '06 Suzuki GZ250, which is a simple light cruiser ("Harley style") bike. It still was carbed and didn't make much power but it was happy to cruise at 55mph. An alternative is the Suzuki TU250X which has more standard styling but is fuel injected.

If you want something more sport oriented, you could get a Kawasaki Ninja 250, which was pretty much unchanged from the late 80s all the way to 2012.

I was riding my motorcycle today and was gonna park in a parking lot. Nearby there was a 1-lane 1-way road, and I witnessed some car park there even though the parking lot was visibly not full from that road. An hour later it was still parked there, blocking the road. Idiot.

And then you finally hit it but it's a Holo on a build where played cards trigger x mult so it's still pretty much useless.

I'm not the type to run super intensive games, and even those games have plenty of warm up time in the form of a loading screen.

That being said, I have had instances of my entire system shutting down due to a graphically intensive game, but it's much rarer than when running a local LLM.

How do I do that?

 

I was just doing random stuff on my phone and went to click a button near the top right of the screen, and was mildly horrified to see "1%", so I immediately put it into the charger, where the phone promptly started showing "0%" for the next ~30 seconds. The phone never died.

Has this happened to any of you?

 

I've been experiencing this for a while now and it doesn't seem to appear anywhere else on other forums, so I'll post here. Even if this is unsolvable, it's good to get the issue posted somewhere.

Certain internet apps stop working randomly. When one app stops working, they all stop working. None of them crash, but they lose their functionality. The Internet still works, as I can browse the web just fine when these apps are broken. The only way to fix this is a full device reboot.

The apps include but are not limited to:

  • Discord
  • Jerboa for Lemmy
  • Dating apps (Tinder, Bumble, Hinge)
  • Certain banking apps (you know it's broken when it fails to show biometric login)

My phone is a Moto G Stylus 5G 2022, with the November 1, 2024 security patch of Android 13.

EDIT: I found another way to at least temporarily fix the issue after it happened a record 6 times in one day. Disabling (and optionally re-enabling) the DuckDuckGo app tracking protection. This is incredibly strange because the issue affects Jerboa for Lemmy which has no ads and trackers.

 

I could be exploring all the mechanics that Fulgora and Gleba have to offer. I've researched both planets and have a spaceship ready to take me there in a couple minutes. But nooooo... I instead want to utilize the insane scale of everything on Vulcanus to build rail networks to bring my SPM to the moon!

First, I want red, green, blue, and purple science to get unlimited mining productivity! But yellow science for enhanced military power sounds nice for medium demolishers, behemoth biters, and the Gleba enemies... And since I already have yellow science, I can easily expand to space science... And wait, I also can make Metallurgic science as well!

 

Hi! SuperSpruce here! I wanted to give occasional progress updates of my Factorio: Space Age base, so here it is! I would've posted this on Reddit instead of here if it wasn't for Reddit's greed starting in 2023. Note that I'm not using any mods here, even QoL.

The start was quite poor, due to the dry climate, no visible chokepoints, and spaced out resources. The only good thing was a small oil patch nearby. The biters were a constant threat in the early game, so I researched military and gun turrets before automation, purposely delayed scaling up as to keep power consumption low, and rushed efficiency modules and solar power. My weapon progression has gone: SMG with yellow ammo, SMG with red ammo, flamethrower, SMG+defender capsules, and now tank + defender capsules.

Here's the whole base. Yes, I am naming my train stations after motorcycles, deal with it.

.

My 1-4 train system uses what amounts to a giant roundabout with an exit for each major resource in the main bus, with buffers to prevent traffic jams. I only have about 5 trains running currently, but I tremble at the thought of traffic jams. That's why I plan to build a train "interstate highway" in the future. Outside of the main base, it turns into 2-lane "rural tracks."

Here's the main base with the main bus:

Fun fact: The belts are all yellow belts except for 3 cases where I needed more underground length where I begrudgingly use red undergrounds.

And finally, here's my sad 2nd attempt at a space base:

My next goal is to go to Vulcanus for the cliff explosives and more powerful military options. But I first need to scale up steel...

Give me your thoughts, but don't spoil anything!

 

This is the #1 reason why I don't buy Apple anymore. But if there was an easy private way, I'd be open to getting Apple products again.

I simply want to transfer files from my PC to my iPad without any companies collecting info about the files, such as legally acquired mp3 files that dumb corporations will think are pirated.

What are the ways to do this?

 

I've seen many instances of some software having DRM that significantly degrades the performance of the software, or worse, the performance of the entire OS due to heavy background tasks. Prime examples include Denuvo and all those Adobe background processes. Why can't they just simply use the TPM or the other 5 security chips embedded into the CPU so that they don't bloat the system?

 

YouTube link

This might be a bit different than what usually gets posted here but I found this on Nebula and its perhaps my favorite video I've seen on the platform yet. You can also watch it on YouTube (strangely YT didn't suggest it to me despite it being right up my alley).

I absolutely love this idea of trying to do long distance riding with little e-bikes and e-scooters, or basically anything on 2 (or just 1???) wheels.

 

I think of myself as technically inclined. I have installed Linux multiple times and have basic command line knowledge, and I've programmed in many languages, with the most experience making a static website game using HTML/CSS/JS.

Additionally, I own the superspruce.org domain (my registrar is Dynadot), but I don't really know how to wield the power of owning a domain. I also have some spare computers to be used for hosting, a 2009 laptop running Lubuntu and a 3900X+32GB RAM desktop other running KDE Neon, but I'm also open to experimenting with cloud hosting too (I know, sacrilege here).

However, I don't know much about the TCP/IP protocol or other networking protocols. I'm happy to learn, but the curve would need to start gently.

I would want to try hosting my websites, and also a personal non-federated Lemmy instance to serve as a archivable forum for my games. Even if it's not very useful, it's great experience.

 

Not sure if this is the right community for this, but I see plenty of electric motorcycle stuff here, so I'll bite. Message me if this is the wrong place for this content.

Anyways, really? AI? On a motorcycle? Isn't the entire point of motorcycles feeling the freedom of manipulating your machine to do what you ask of it? Without any AI and data selling nonsense? Please don't let this be the direction of motorcycling.

AI is powerful has a place in many areas. Just keep it out of motorcycles, a hobby defined by skill, freedom, and most importantly, fun.

Give us electric motorcycles whose tech adds to the experience, not tries to turn it into a IoT data harvesting device, please.
