Depends - average would probably be about 2-3 hours? Not great but not awful for my use.

I could replace the battery and improve this - ifixit sell the kits - but currently I have no need.

My mid 2013 MacBook air sees more use than any of my other devices.

I bought it for £100 a few years back and haven’t looked back.

They have enough of those in their club already tbh.

XFCE. Because I’m an idiot, and all my computers are old.

It’s hard not to be a doomer with news like this - I’m glad I’m not having kids is all I can think about when I read this; I don’t want to think about what the world is going to look like when I’m (not much) older.

Population is increasing, despite this. But the current dialogue around immigration is absolutely horrific, so good luck to everyone who plans on living long enough to maybe need care.

The line must go UP.

I mean, It was that or being deported to Afghanistan - he obviously thought a boat journey was better than taking his daughter to “safe” Basra.

That’s sort of besides the point really, though, no?

If you’re tasked with maintaining a structure (lol) you can be expected to perhaps attempt to know where all the bits you’re responsible for are aren’t you?

But then again, Severn-Trent uses dousing rods to find water mains so who knows what they he’ll they’re actually doing.

Is it what AI is good at, or is it just that the image generation stuff is where the focus has been because it’s more accessible to non-tech literate?

I’ve found that breaking cables is a personal issue. I still have an old usb Xbox 360 controller for pc gaming from when I owned an xbox. My partner has destroyed cables for laptops, hairdryers, headphones in less than 12 months.

Some cables are objectively worse than others (macbook chargers I’m looking at you) but a modicum of care generally is enough to make sure they last without too much hassle.

What are you using to browse lemmy?

In any case I was trying to link to matrix.org

Are they the root, or are they a justification? Seems like a pretty reductive take, to be honest.

Wars have been occurring for a long time, and generally a desire for resources (including control over people) is a leading cause. Religion is an easy thing to use to get people to lay their lives on the line for you if they already have that belief. Equally it’s an easy scapegoat for anti-religious people to blame wars on as well.

This conflict isn’t just about religion. If it was then Israel’s neighbours probably would have got involved as well.

I can’t think of a phone I’ve owned that hasn’t done this, even as far back as my O2 Ice

Disney felt like a tipping point for me (and Netflix’s new role as a production company). It was only when that came about that people like Paramount started offering their own services (idk how true that is but it’s certainly how it felt).

I still pay for Disney+ right now, but a big part of the appeal of streaming for me was having lots of stuff in one place. Now it’s just cable/satellite all over again.
