Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What topic do you have the most knowledge, and can you explain it so a child can understand it?
10·1 year agoElectricity. I’m a field electrician studying the engineering side.
Electricity is all about guiding voltage and current in a preferred direction as to do some form of work, whether it’s producing light, turning a motor, or integrating into logic circuits to make your computer do tricks.
To keep yourself in the clear, don’t touch the shiny bits.
Shit I haven’t had a vacation in 3 years since my honeymoon, and mainly because 1) money, 2) time. I make decent money doing my own thing as an electrician, but costs have spiraled so far out of control that I’m working my ass off just to keep us afloat. I’ve been contemplating hanging that up and getting a job just to get healthcare and retirement, of which I can’t afford if I want to stay competitive in my pricing.
There is no guaranteed paid time off here in the states, it’s a “benefit” of whatever company someone works at (including federal holidays). And even then, many people are guilted into not taking their allocated time off for fear of very real reprisal (missing out on promotions, etc).
It’s really fucked up and I don’t wanna play anymore.
Little of this, little of that

8·1 year agothe first thing I’d do would be login (cause it’s necessary), enable adb, disconnect the internet, block firmware updates, and restrict dns then reconnect to the internet.
You have to realize maybe a small handful of people that own these devices will do any of that. They’ll just plug in and go. Sure they may know how to side load, but they aren’t taking any other preventative measures as you suggest, nor do they have the know-how to do so.
I’d imagine Amazon initiated these via firmware updates that just about anyone would blindly install. The updates probably included scripts to uninstall any “unauthorized” APKs, disable developer options, restore factory system settings, lock the user profile from modifying the system, etc.
He’s drinking half and half
I’d love to see humanity collectively rise up and tell the wealthy and powerful where to stick it, but it’s important to remember that some small group of dickheads have been vying for control and domination of everyone else at some point for pretty much the entire existence of humanity. This is merely just the next iteration of that.
But it’d be fucking rad if we could finally break that cycle.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•US question: Would you approve of your state seceding from the Union, declaring independence from the United States? I think California, Oregon, and Washington would, and probably Colorado too.
4·1 year agoIf honestly be curious how that would work out. CA tends to know the value of immigration, and i couldn’t really see them holding a policy of closed borders, at least not in the long run.

654·1 year agoCalifornian here, bye Felicia. I’m fucking done with my hard earned money going towards ungrateful backwoods idiots that actively hate me, my state, and my neighbors because they’re told to by thuh teevee, yet don’t realize it. I’m done subsiding hatred for the sake of it, because “it’s the right thing to do.” I’m done being at the political whim of people that can’t spell potato. I have a lot of heart for my countrymen, but considering far too many of them hate us for reasons they don’t even understand, I don’t see the point anymore.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Tomorrow you wake up with the power of Superman for 48 hours, what's on your to do list?
541·1 year agoVanquish evil. There’s quite the list at the moment.
It wasn’t slowing down the phones at different battery percentages, they were essentially derating the hardware under the premise of battery management, and iirc they got called out and said “you’re right, but buy new phones anyway, yours are old.” I don’t recall the specifics, but it just seemed super shady.

142·1 year agoIt really does just look like heat dissipation from rooftop heat exchangers, not gasses out of an exhaust. I’m sure that building uses (and wastes) an ungodly amount of power, but I’d imagine it’s grid-tied, and therefore any noxious gases are being generated elsewhere (with the exception of on-site backup generators).
I’m all for telling AI to fuck off, but let’s at least have the facts straight.
The MSM just fear an orange reprisal. They’re also pandering to the middle of the ground voters.





And this is how you end up with multiple freezers lol
