unaffected by EMP were everywhere.

They called them books.

Out of curiosity what the range and/or power for an EMP pulse to brick my microSD with Zim files on it?

Wondering what's the actual risk of such a thing happening, what kind of scenarii would this require?

people on Lemmy could have some empathy and not just assume that everyone driving a Tesla is sanctioning anything that Elon Musk does.

Costs 1 EUR and takes 10sec to put a sticker on a Tesla that says "I bought this before Elon went mad" and plenty of people on Lemmy would understand I bet. It's more of a gesture to show that one having a Tesla does not support the actions of the its CEO. A Tesla without even a sticker on is assumed to be owned by someone who knows yet either does not care or even supports Musk.

True, but most CEOs are unknown to consumers, only to employees and share-holders. Usually there is a "culture" of a company that is a blend of PR, advertising, marketing, etc. Here Musk became associated with the brand though. Tesla existed before Musk and worked well... but was nowhere near a popular. I hate Musk yet I feel it's fair (and please if you have data showing I'm wrong, do share, I'd love to remove any wrongful attributed credit from him) to say he made Tesla enormously more popular than before he invested in it. So... you are right in most cases people buy cars, and other products, without knowing about the CEO but that specifically does not apply to Tesla where the hype precisely came from a self branded as IronMan.

Check Adolescence https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/adolescence for a drama on the topic.

Warning: VERY dramatic.

meant to be a “revolution” in gaming…

If you tried Half-life: Alyx and don't find it revolutionary then I'd be curious to know what's enough for you. It's not popular, sure, but it doesn't mean the quality of the few experiences that do exist aren't legitimate.

demanding that we prove that we’re using copilot to generate code

Because that's how one gets value right? It's not because the tool is so efficient people WANT to use it even though they should not (e.g. due to commercial secrets)... no instead you force them to use it. /s

Still using X11 as I'm on Debian stable but https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#Wayland might help.

I haven't nor plan to... but it's also worst and worst content and behavior so yesterday I request my data take-out.

I'm not sure if I'll just stay logged-out (like right now) or plainly delete my account but either I'm preparing a way out.

I just wanted the machine to turn-on, work, and play some games.

And that was before the SteamDeck too.

Meta : I'd be curious to know the ratio of people downvoting the "Linux!" suggestion who actually do so from Windows.
