This is my problem. I want to use Lemmy over Reddit, but there’s just not a diverse enough population to find the content I want about niche topics. Bundle that with the same 3-4 “tech company bad”, “CEO bad”, or “USA bad” topics on the top of my feed every day and it’s pushing me away from Lemmy tbh. I signed back into my Reddit account for the first time in months yesterday.

I was with you on the software compatibility point, but then you completely lost me with “failed desktop OS”…

I’m getting pretty tired of the obvious “Big tech company bad, Twitter dead, Linux good” bias that Lemmy seems to have. It’s definitely decreased my usage over the last week or two. I guess it kind of comes with the territory given Lemmy is a more complicated platform that will naturally attract more tech-oriented users, but it’s still getting super old seeing the same flavor posts every single day.

A portable battery should be considered to be removable by the end-user when it can be removed with the use of commercially available tools and without requiring the use of specialised tools, unless they are provided free of charge, or proprietary tools, thermal energy or solvents to disassemble it. Commercially available tools are considered to be tools available on the market to all end users without the need for them to provide evidence of any proprietary rights and that can be used with no restriction, except health and safety-related restrictions.

I’m glad they got specific. I wonder where Apple’s self-service battery replacement program falls under this? AFAIK it’s not free. They charge a fee to rent the specialized tools, which are also proprietary.

This gives Apple a few choices:

1. Make the tools commercially available, but at an astronomical price in typical Apple fashion
2. Make the tools commercially available at a normal consumer price (unlikely)
3. Make the self-service battery replacement program free (most likely, but will require a significant revision to the tools used since they are industrial-grade)

I’m not sure if English is your first language, but that’s not the exact wording from the document.

Emphasis mine:

To ensure the safety of end-users, this Regulation should provide for a limited derogation for portable batteries from the removability and replaceability requirements set for portable batteries concerning appliances that incorporate portable batteries and that are specifically designed to be used, for the majority of the active service of the appliance, in an environment that is regularly subject to splashing water, water streams or water immersion and that are intended to be washable or rinseable.

To me this would be things meant to be used in and around water (underwater cameras, water sensors, etc.), not water-resistant devices like smartphones that aren’t specifically designed to be used in that kind of environment.

Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise

I think this trend will continue for a bit as more mobile apps get created and become more popular.

Here’s my build. Ignore the empty slots as I only filled in the stuff that I think matters for fury generation.

• The most important thing I’ve noticed is that it feels MUCH better when you fill up on fury, push Rend, do 2-3 generators, push Rend, do 2-3 generators… This playstyle combined with the Expectant and Limitless Rage aspects mean you don’t really “waste” fury by going over your cap and your Rends do more damage while you keep your fury up.
• I take the +24% shout duration (Booming Voice passive) combined with Echoing Fury and Bold Chieftan aspects to get massive fury from shouts.
• I’m wearing 100,000 Steps boots that generate 40 fury when I push Iron Maelstrom.
• I use the Rapid aspect on a 2H weapon to get +50% attack speed on basic skills. This is HUGE when it comes to generating fury with Lunging Strike a couple times between Rends.
• I’m wearing Ramaladni’s sword and it generates big fury when combined with the fairly high Lucky Hit % on Lunging Strike. It also makes Lunging Strike do big damages when you’re close to full fury.
• Rage of Harrogath chest reduces the cooldown on shouts by a lot, so it’s a must since more shouts = more fury per second.
• Using 2H mace expertise for more fury

A shorter than 40 hour work week would be the biggest draw.

According to a study conducted by Zippia.com (1,000 full-time workers), the average worker is only productive for a little over 4 hours per day, with productivity capping out at 6 hours. This article on studyfinds.org references another 2,000 employee study done by OnePoll (no link given) that says “A new survey finds office workers are at their most productive by 10:22 a.m. each morning — but start to slump by 1:27 p.m.”

Letting employees who commute to the office every day work 30 hours per week instead of 40 would be a HUGE draw for a lot of people. Less traffic on the commute, less “fluff” time where you’re not doing anything, time to take care of personal errands during the week while businesses are still open, and I’m sure other benefits.

Brother, the general population in Arkansas is not even smart enough to change their Wi-Fi password, let alone use a VPN.

That’s kinda what happens when you say “we’re gonna protest for 2 whole days then go back to normal” lol. All Reddit execs and admins had to do was sit on their hands for 2 days and not say anything.

It’s hilarious that whoever came up with the 2 day blackout thing thought that would make any bit of difference.

It was an event where one user can change the color of a single pixel at a time, choosing from a predefined color palette. There was a cooldown on how often you were allowed to color a pixel, 5 minutes or something, I don’t remember.

It was a fun way for communities to band together and draw pixel art over the course of a week or so. It was fun the first time because it was spontaneous and there weren’t very many bots, if any. After that, it was just a competition of who paid for the most bot accounts so they could camp a space to keep a clear picture. Completely lost its draw IMO (no pun intended).

Gaben will die at some point

I won’t allow it.

Just FYI, Tildes is run by one (1) dude with a full time job and a family. From what I read, the guy refers to himself as the God of Tildes or something to that effect which I think tells you everything you need to know about how it’s managed.

Don’t expect it to ever reach the popularity or capacity of Lemmy or Reddit.

I am looking forward to only having to push a fury generator 9 times instead of 10.

Sorry didn’t mean to make it sound like you HAVE to do it. You only need to complete around 75% of each chapter’s objectives for it to be considered “completed”. 9/11, 9/12, 6/8, etc.

The 10,000 seeds objective in the last part is definitely going to be easier than reaching level 100 or killing Uber Lilith though.

If there’s no other players, it’s the same as any other zone aside from the boss that wanders around. If you run into a player that is PvP flagged, they can and will attack you and you will lose all your seeds.
