oh i mean lemmy.zip is a pretty big instance imo, I think it’s barely smaller than shit

obvious slop

arm on second frame comes out of nowhere

am i a bad citizen :((

I personally like being on a fairly large instance though, it guarantees reliability and trust to an extent

really weird, my touchscreen laptop worked fine

what’s the problem? if you want bigger buttons and stuff you could try gnome?

lost on lemmy?

I think a better place to post this is somewhere like !fediverse@lemmy.world , this is a shitpost (meme) community

did anyone actually read the pdf?

here is the wikipedia article about the organisation doing the “research”. read their partners list and see if your conclusion changes

what’s the problem with syncthing?

the chinese aren’t worse engineers than americans, they’re just usually more incentivised to reduce cost than increase quality

anyway I think the thinkpad design team is still in japan

they’re built way better than their t14/p14s counterparts though, iirc they use the magic alloy for the chassis instead of plastic

so?

holy shit that’s actually competent hardware, and you can get them for way cheaper than an equivalent pc

i think I might have to start looking for one

I think this wire is a bit difficult to solder because it’s very thick, with a normal soldering iron it might pull away too much heat for the two wires to get to temperature

It’s normal for the wire to get hot while soldering though, and it’s fine to an extent. Just don’t hold them with your hands :)

If you’re having difficulties, it might be better to “tin” each of the wires before soldering. It makes it a lot easier in terms of holding the wires in place

would be interesting but I bet the FSF won’t like it

i quite like the cinnamon theme in mint, I think it looks really nice, especially with a vibrant wallpaper. In my opinion it’s modern but simple and relaxing to look at

c for smartphones

laptop 12 does

Brand new tech powered by Proof Of Shit instead of Proof Of Work?? how wonderful
