  Youtuber “Brad is Brad” creates a custom controller for Subnautica using an exercise bike and an Arduino so that he has to pedal the bike in order to swim in the game.

  Yeah the electric pickup is such a no brainer for the US Disagree. The truck market itself is a no brainer, but electric trucks have design challenges that electric sedans don’t. Namely, aerodynamics, towing, and aerodynamics while towing. It is much harder to make an electric truck capable of doing “truck stuff” with a reasonable range and price compared to making an electric car.

  I’m not the person you asked, nor have I been going around defending Platner, but I have to admit that I don’t know what to believe. Between so much bullshit and disinformation floating around in general (especially against progressives/socialists), and remembering what happened to Al Franken in particular, it’s all too conveniently-timed and politically-motivated for me to trust the accusations.

  IMO first and second class should be reversed because being banned by regex implies the guy cared enough to make sure he got all your alts.

  Dumb terminals don’t need much RAM. Unfortunately, the minimal RAM would come with maximum rentiership and exploitation.

• People who enjoy origami or papercraft should consider a career in the packaging industry

  I’m in the middle of breaking down the packaging of a Roland digital piano for recycling, and I’m impressed by how some of it uses intricately-folded cardboard instead of molded styrofoam to hold stuff in place.

  Why are you lying about what I wrote? I never claimed the publisher should be forced to maintain it forever. What part of sending the source to the government archive did you not understand?

• How to factory reset/reinstall stock firmware with broken screen?

  My Pixel 7 running GrapheneOS has a malfunctioning screen (it intermittently displays static/white noise instead of a correct image – I didn’t damage it; it legitimately randomly failed). I managed to get Amazon to accept a return for it, but now I need to figure out how to wipe it and reinstall the stock firmware without being able to see what I’m doing. Any advice? Edit: I was researching the problem and found this article talking about Pixel 10s doing the same thing. (My phone screen l...

  Due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, both affected regions have experienced physical impacts to infrastructure as a result of drone strikes. In the UAE, two of our facilities were directly struck, while in Bahrain, a drone strike in close proximity to one of our facilities caused physical impacts to our infrastructure. These strikes have caused structural damage, disrupted power delivery to our infrastructure, and in some cases required fire suppression activities that resulted in add...

  Nah, this is just straight-up destruction. They don’t want to hand the work to crony-capitalists; they want it to cease being done at all.

  I didn’t miss the Leaf, but I had ruled it out because of the telemetry. This… but they’ve phased that out for the old Leafs …is news to me. Got a source where I can read more?

  No, it does. The notion that urbanists want to get rid of delivery vehicles is a strawman argument used to attack us.

  I’m going by the plain language of the laws. It’s the copyright cartel shysters and the judicial system biased in their favor that are making shit up.

  Trying to go for a “Linux gaming distro” is the wrong thing to do in the first place, IMO. Even if they’re gamers, they’re switching the computers they use for everything. What they needed was a general-purpose distro and then to install Steam or whatever on top of that. The notion of a “gaming distro” should be considered harmful for everything other than maybe running it on one of those Steam Deck knock-offs.
