No need to solder.

Someone mentioned battery blinds that charges by USB, lots of small panels provide charge by USB.

I’d say it’s worth spending extra on a panel that won’t try to charge a full battery just to be safe, but other than that with as little juice as it uses you can buy a very cheap, very small panel and just stick it in an upper corner.

Ignorance is bliss homie…

People really don’t want to know how much AI is being shoved down the government’s and military’s throats these days.

It ain’t even just a musk/trump thing, most of it was put in motion under Biden, but now idiots are running with it.

Like, who the fuck really wants the space force using a closeted version of the same consumer level chatbot coding shit?

Fucking no one who understands anything about any of this, but the people calling the shots believe the hype.

So ignorance is bliss.

You know there’s some pretty old people here, right?

Yeah, but I also know how long American food safety has been woefully subpar…

Buddy, if you think this is new…

Well, the important part is at least you realize it now. But there’s a reason most other countries don’t import US food, our food safety standards have been a joke longer than anyone on Lemmy has been alive.

So by all means, organize to ban US food imports, but you shouldn’t have been eating it to begin with.

I’m American, but if other countries apply pressure, we have a better shot of raising the standard.

More importantly it was limited by physical media back then.

Like, DVD level physical media, there was a hard limit for everyone, so there was a huge focus on optimization to save space

Now that almost all games are downloaded, they can be as huge as they want. So optimizing for file size is often the first place that gets cut. You might not keep a huge game installed, but it’s rare to avoid buying a game due to file size.

Just right wing tech bro shit

Pirate Wires leans right-wing and anti-establishment, often framing progressive policies and government regulation as threats to innovation and individual freedom. Its coverage often favors the tech industry, advocates for free markets, and opposes centralized authority, often using provocative headlines to convey its critiques. For example, the article “Listen Up, Bezos: Shut Up and Pay Me” takes an aggressive approach toward Amazon’s wage policies, while “Sucks to EU” mocks European regulatory measures. The language is highly informal, provocative, and laced with sarcasm, which aligns with Pirate Wires’ broader editorial style. The article uses mocking rhetoric, exaggerated phrasing, and conversational snark to frame the EU as an overreaching bureaucratic entity that stifles free speech and innovation.

And not a fit for this sub on top of it

churn out a “quick” remaster, try and beat Skyblivion to completion, and milk the cash cow dry. It’ll almost certainly be a muddy sepia, soulless, bugged to all fuck travesty.

I literally can’t tell if you’re trying to be sarcastic because you’ve read any of a huge number of articles about the leaks, or completely ignorant of them and just happened to get everything completely opposite on accident…

The debate has drawn a mixed bag of reactions. Tech evangelist Chris Messina supported Dorsey’s stance. He wrote on BlueSky social, “Jack has a point" as “Automated IP fines/3-strike rules for AI infringement may become the substitute for putting poor people in jail for cannabis possession.”

Yeah, good thing that’s not still happening or anything…

/s

Like, I get why some do red lips because maybe that’s scary…

But they’re supposed to be blending in with fog and looking like spirits.

And fucking Bill over there decided to blow up everyone’s spot and make his mask look like a real person.

Hes a guy, disguised as a spirit, pretending to be another guy.

Which, shit man, that’s probably pretty effective. If Bill charged me at 4:30am in that mask I would be stunned still, just too many questions would come up for me to react.

You didn’t get the guy that painted a beard on his mask tho…

I don’t know why, but I’m fascinated with why that one dude made that choice

I’m starting to think this isn’t just a money grab…

Tech oligarchs want us to offload critical thinking to their own AIs, who will give us the answers they want us to have.

Who cares what the nazis on Twitter do?

At this point it’s safe to write off anything that happens there. And anyone that still makes the decision to financially support a fucking nazi can be written off as well.

Do it, fuck up Twitter, Amazon, meta, and everyone else that shared a stage with trump.

The only language they know is $, if trump is bad for their money, they’ll go against trump.

These are people obsessed with wealth over every thing else, it’s not hard to manipulate them, but when rational adults regain power, we need to tax the ever loving shit out of them because no matter what happens, they’ll always choose “more money”.

Probably.

I mean, you should take the time to Google it if you want it to turn out well.

But in general bury a tuber and it’ll grow. It’s basically just a root that stores crazy amounts of energy. They all evolved to have that part buried underground.

Honestly, game pass on PC is such a good deal it’s basically free

But yeah, I should have said “free” instead of free.

I have a feeling this thing will be too big in a week.

The potatoe part isnt going to get bigger…

It’s shriveling up and dying so it’s using all its stored energy in a last dying grasp for survival…

You need to fully bury it, or chop off the bits where it grew sprouts and store it like a regular one till you plant it. Neither way is guaranteed, but they’re both better chances than exposed like that.

Literally the reason presidents are supposed to divest is to stop other countries from applying political pressure like this…

So yeah, do it.

Fuck over any corp backing trump.

Nope, never said it sucked, never even said which way that mattered…

But if you read the article:

Concurrent player numbers on Steam have been okay but not great, peaking out at a little over 6,000 concurrents during Atomfall’s first weekend of release. The 1.5 million player count is no doubt driven largely by Atomfall’s presence on Game Pass, where everyone can give it a spin for no more cost than what they’re paying for their subscription anyway.

6k on steam…

The single largest platform for PC games.

Meaning most are on Game pass.

We can’t say everyone who tried it for free would have bought it. Which makes these numbers less valuable.

Does it make sense now?

Being free on Xbox and PC thru game pass really makes these numbers less valuable…

So can guys like Epstein…
