It’s is M.2, but not the M/B+M key most M2 SSDs use but rather a A+E meant for WIFI/Bluetooth. According to this video it’s essentially 2 PCI Express x1 lanes and USB 2.0. The video goes on to explain some possible alternative uses:

• A gigabit ethernet adapter
• 2x SATA ports for a standard SATA drive
• Coral tensor processor
• SD card reader
• 2x USB A-type ports
• Some type of SIM card adapter (video wasn’t quite sure on it either)
• A PCI Express x16 slot that only functionally works as a x1

So while does this slot has it’s uses, it’s not meant to be used for M.2 drives but rather WIFI.

I would agree on the investigation ensuring everything was done diligently and to protocol. I don’t think it’s some international political issue that the US is waging on it, just that they are an individual traveling to be euthanized it might be seen as murder in the individuals native courts. The United States still having issues letting people go state to state for treatment, let alone internationally, causes me pause in such situations.

I’ll be the first to admit I have no real knowledge on the laws that apply here but the United States has been known to inject themselves into other nations matters regularly. This is again just opinion and no way substantiated by anything tangible.

Edit: To add to this, this MSN article seems to give additional information. Specifically, the following quotes:

The American woman who became the first person to take her own life in the new “suicide pod” in Switzerland was given a chilling command by the morbid machine before she took her last breaths.

“If you want to die, press this button,” the machine said, according to the AFP.

So most likely this is due to being the first incident of voluntary euthanasia being legally done in Switzerland, and ensuring the legality of such procedures via precedent for future such cases.

From the article:

Police in the canton of Schaffhausen, in northern Switzerland, confirmed the arrests, while the public prosecutors’ office confirmed it had opened an investigation into suspected incitement and aiding and abetting of suicide.

The person who died was reportedly a 64-year-old American woman. Switzerland is one of the few countries in the world where assisted suicide is legal, under certain conditions.

But the article does state that the interior minister does question the morality and legality of the device:

Switzerland’s interior minister, Élisabeth Baume-Schneider, questioned the moral and legal status of the Sarco Pod, a device that is designed to allow a person inside to push a button that injects nitrogen gas into the sealed chamber.

It’s hard to say why the arrests happened without more details, but I’d suspect the nationality of the individual may play a role.

Civil disobedience is the duty of everyone.

From my understanding, you are pretty safe as long as you don’t provoke them (walking through the middle of them might be considered provoking) or near their calves. This article from the UK states “Where recorded, 91% of HSE reported fatalities on the public were caused by cows with calves”. Basically, mothers with a child are going to be very protective.

Cows are a domesticated creature, so they are generally docile, but I would exercise caution because if need be they will use their mass and strength against you. I’ve heard of stories of farmers running from cows and narrowly escaping under a fence. Most of these did involve a farmer trying to separate a calve from it’s mother. I’ve also heard stories of cows jumping fences.

And as far as memes go:

Semi-cold? That’s extra, you’ll be lucky to afford it. The affordable water been sitting out on the pavement for a few weeks.

Is it price gouging if there is a heat advisory is my question, and how enforceable is that. For water it’s just cruel, especially in places with little access to drinkable tap water.

This is what happens when you try to extract more and more value off the top of labor, without any added value other than line must go up. When suppressing wages is the only way to improve corporate profits, profits are capped and stockholders hate this. This is in theory suppose to encourage innovation to increase efficency (without just resorting to skeleton crews or pressuring labor for more output). Monopolies stop innovating due to market control and look at other methods of increasing profits with leverage rather than market competitiveness.

Yea this is just syntax, every language does it a little different, most popular languages seem to derive off of C in some capacity. Some do it more different than others, and some are unholy conglomerations of unrelated languages that somehow works. Instead of saying why is this different, just ask how does this work. It’s made my life a lot simpler.

var test int is just int test in another language.

func (u User) hi () { ... } is just class User { void hi() { ... } } in another language (you can guess which language I’m referencing I bet).

map := map[string]int {} is just Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<>() in another (yes it’s java).

Also RTFM, this is all explained, just different!

Edit: I also know this is a very reductive view of things and there are larger differences, I was mostly approaching this from a newer developers understanding of things and just “getting it to work”.

This would only affect the 12V rail though no? It’s not like they are beefing up the 5V rail that supplies your USB ports in excessive amounts. Picking a random PSU from pcpartpicker, the CORSAIR RM650e vs RM1200e (650W vs 1200W) both have a +5V@20A rail. There would be no need to have a larger 5V rail to support gaming cards.

Also correct me if I am wrong, most PSU’s are more efficient at 20-50% utilization, not 100%. I’m basing this off the higher ratings for 80 Plus.

Your computer doesn’t “waste” electricity, power usage is on-demand. A PSU generally has 3 “rails”; a 12V (this powers most of the devices), a 5V (for peripherals/USB) and 3.3V (iirc memory modules use this). Modern PSUs are called Switched-mode power supplies that use a Switching voltage regulator which is more efficient than traditional linear regulators.

The efficiency of the PSU/transformer would be what determines if one or the other is more wasteful. Most PSUs (I would argue any PSU of quality) will have a 80 Plus rating that defines how efficiently it can convert power. I am not familiar enough with modern wall chargers to know what their testing at… I could see the low-end wall chargers using more wasteful designs, but a high quality rapid wall charger is probably close to if not on par with a PC PSU. Hopefully someone with more knowledge of these can weigh in on this.

Fluent in finance is just another forum that says it’s your fault your poor. They say you don’t play the game right and they may be right for a rigged game. But the fact is you shouldn’t be required to play a game to get whats your fair share, and fluent in finance just says you didn’t invest right and didn’t setup your future right to live off the backs of other workers.

The rest is just hyperbolic headlines which drive engagement which is the cancer of any social media platform. No one makes a billion dollars in income as defined by the US tax code, they make a billion dollars in equity which can be used to back loans which is part of the whole issue of obscuring cash flow. Then they can just use this as fodder to call anyone supporting this idiots cause “No one makes a billion dollars a year” when we know they do, it’s just accounted differently.

“From March 1, 2024, an order will come into force to block VPN services providing access to sites banned in Russia,” Sheikin was quoted as saying by state news agency RIA.

I assume this means it’s regarding outgoing communications, for censorship purposes most likely. I’d be surprised if they were blocking incoming VPN traffic, and I don’t think the Russian government has an issue with Yandex operating.

TL;DR: The bot is configured to condense certain instances and communities. At the moment, only beehaw.org is marked to be condensed.

Quickly looking at the source code, it seems ReplyToPostsCommand uses a SummaryTextWrapper, which contains an iterable for both CondensedSummaryTextWrapperProvider and DefaultSummaryTextWrapperProvider. The DefaultSummaryTextWrapperProvider has a priority of -1_000 (so it’s always checked last) and is set to always return true on the supports(Community $community): bool. CondensedSummaryTextWrapperProvider references the config/services.yaml for it’s supports(Community $community): bool call which lists 0 condensed communities and 1 condensed instance, being beehaw.org.

You can add streamlink-ttvlol with one of the known compatible proxies to remove the ads. Works great for me.

Also if there are issues with VLC crashing, I recommend MPV as it handles malformed stream data a little better. VLC will work great 99% of the time on twitch though.

Also, any plugin that Twitch doesn’t like (for example TTV LOL) is detected and will prevent a log in. You’ll need to disable the plugin to login, but can use it after logging in.

Thermometers, like most measurement devices, are always accurate until you get two of them. Each device has a specific tolerance (or should, otherwise it’s probably a horrible tolerance), for a grill thermometer this will look like -/+5C/10F. Additionally, everything used to read a measurement needs to be calibrated regularly to ensure proper function, otherwise readings cannot be trusted. For a thermometer, the easily accessible way to calibrate are to use ice water (does it read 0C/32F) and boiling water (does it read 100C/212F). Using these constants will allow you to adjust your thermometer and get a (more) accurate reading.

Season 8 on more torrents is probably considered to be the new hulu reboot. This is due to the disparity in the home release seasons and the television TV seasons. So most likely if you have seasons 1-7, you have all the home release versions of the show, and therefore have the entire library.

Looking over the github issues I couldn’t find a feature request for this, so it seems like it’s not being considered at the moment. You could make a suggestion over there, I do think this feature would be useful but it’s up to the devs to implement it.

That being said, I wouldn’t count on this feature being implemented. This will only work on instances that obey the rules so some instances could remove this feature. When you look up your account on my instance (link here), it is up to my server to respect your option to hide your profile comments. This means the options have to be federated per-user, and adds a great deal of complexity to the system that can be easily thwarted by someone running an instance that chooses to not follow these rules.

If your goal is to stop people looking up historical activities, it might be best to use multiple accounts and switch to new accounts every so often to break up your history. You could also delete your content but this is again up to each instance to respect the deletion request. It’s not an optimal solutions but depending on your goals it is the available solution.

Edit: Also if your curious about the downvotes, it’s not the subject matter but your post violates Rule 3: Not regarding using or support for Lemmy.

Best I could find is here, which is an article by Randall Munroe (the xkcd artist), and states:

This blog post links to another wayback machine page (thank you archive.org!) here, which explains the sorting algorithm and states it’s original author:

Fortunately, the math for this was worked out in 1927 by Edwin B. Wilson.
