European here, stopped seeing them at the end of 90s, before they were so common, even in city

I saw someone on YouTube pissed that they bought 700 ebooks from Amazon and now that they enforce a harder DRM he can't read them anymore.

Bruh, you voted with your wallet to get DRM in your ebooks. You can't complain if one day they change the encryption

there's no make and model, just "1200VA UPS Made in China" and a what i suppose to be a fake CE logo

elon musk should make autonomous weapons. Don't need to test, move fast and break things, will work fine:

 

The batteries in this UPS lasted less than a year. It was because those battery were "no name" batteries, or because they were connected in series directly to the AC after the transformer? Shouldn't they have a rectifier and condenser before that? It seems that in this way the battery is connected to AC 24/7

eh, can see how those are working great for the powerful people (examples: putin, bibi, the libya guy)

Screenshot is from Windows where dotfiles aren't hidden by default. And all the lazy developers that created those directories, didn't bother to set the hidden attribute (See appdata is greyed, because it has the hidden attribute set)

 

AppData folder: am I a joke to you?

The moderator username is implying that it's a subreddit that is for marketing cringe stickers to suckers

Why a real person would star a project? When I star a project then my GitHub home is littered with activity from that project. I hate that, so I never star anything

My body is my body and a legislator has no right to say if I can't remove an unwanted object from it

Absolutely misunderstood, it's just to point that with the current policies, even 25 years olds in a relationship will feel pregnancy as a huge economic problem and choose abortion over bankruptcy

And for victims of rape, underage, when there's a congenital problem that has been discovered in the early exams, the abortion should be even encouraged by the doctors

No, it's to point out that this "anti abortion" policy is all about punishing those whores that had sex outside wedding, as if it's something you do alone and not with a man.

If they really care about minimizing the abortion rate, they should enact policies that help the woman after birth, and not give decades of financial struggles as "punishment for having fun that night"

Personally, I am pro-"let the people do what the fuck they want with their bodies"

 

Ci sono rimasto malissimo. Dentro l'uovo Kinder adesso c'è un pezzo di plastica neutra, dove bisogna appiccicare a mano un adesivo che agisce da "QR code" per l'app proprietaria

Bello!

 
 

Yes, believable, from all the payment methods available, Greenpeace would choose the most fucking inefficient one, that wastes 700 kWh for a single transaction, that's 100 households!

 

It was a video of someone pretending to tell you a secret: thanks to a new israeli app based on ai, it's possible to make 8000 euro per month with trading by just opening an account with their referral and depositing 500 euro. 100% safe and definitely not a scam.

Maybe not a literal scam but imho deceiving people just because they're going to give you $100 in referral money is a scam

 

I have an old mac with a dying hfs hdd with failing SMART. I copied 2tb of data on an exfat drive but windows only sees only 3 directories and 80gb. Where's my other stuff? Now after I did that long copy session that lasted a whole day, the disk died from stress and the mac doesn't boot anymore. Even if it boots, i don't think the disk can last another full copy session...

Testdisk can show the data, there's a way to tell windows that the files are there?

 

Also: FUCK SCRIBD AND EVERYONE THAT UPLOADS STUFF THERE!

 

I got a new Mobo. Windows installer doesn't see the nvme drive. For some reason the bios has a million settings and are all alien to me.

I took a lot of photos of all the settings, so many unknown entries

The motherboard is from an unknown Chinese OEM and it's using a laptop core i7 but in a itx form factor. I have no idea of the brand, really. The box just says "motherboard" and there's no silkscreen on the PCB (it was very fun guessing which pins were for the front panel). No user manual was included. The bios it says "version: default string"

I hate when OEMs lock down bios settings but here is the opposite, they enabled everything
