That’s why you don’t put your laptop in your backpocket

I do the “eh” thing sometimes without thinking about it but I agree with you, I don’t like being on the other end of it either. I’m trying to work on that

Username checks out

I would buy that, multiple even

… Or more likely, when the guy who was even more anti-Palistine manages to win the election, their takeaway will be to adopt some of those more-anti-Palistine policies and sentiments because they were apparently more popular. You’ve got the overton window backwards

It really shows, because it’s just a well thought out, no compromises device. I’m still crossing my fingers hoping that they’re getting somewhere with the steam controller 2 prototypes that I’m sure they’re playing with if only for shits and giggles

Start with an artist I already like, find out who inspired them and who they inspired, listen to them, repeat

You’re kinda freaking me out man!

To be fair, that’s the expected outcome for any interference engine that loses the timing belt, which is almost all modern engines as far as I know. 45k is a really short lifespan for a timing belt though :/

Oh and as for the reader, this is the one that I’ve bought:

Panlong Bluetooth OBD2 OBDII Car… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PJPHEBO?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

It’s super cheap, I had to replace it once a couple years ago because the first one rattled apart, but for the price who gives a fuck

Huh, I have a OnePlus 8t on Android 14, so one version behind. There are other apps that’ll read obd2, but I haven’t tried any of them so I can’t make a recommendation. Torque’s been the standard for years though, so it’s too bad that it’s apparently behind on updates

this one

It’s not the freshest app but it works

To oversimplify, your car maintains a list of faults, and if that list isn’t empty, it’ll turn on the check engine light. An obd2 code reader let’s you see those codes. I can vouch that these Bluetooth readers + torque are the cheapest way to get these codes without going to a parts store. Even if you have no intention of doing your own work on your car, it’s good to have an idea what the problem is so your mechanic doesn’t rip you off.

They generally only return obd2 codes though, which are required by law for emissions. Many automakers keep extra, proprietary codes that require expensive, proprietary tools to read.

Graphene os is a niche within a niche. I’d never even heard of it before I joined lemmy, and I’m no stranger to custom roms.

If you’re being earnest, it’s been the best selling vehicle every year in the US for four decades straight.

You might as well ask “Who drives f150’s?” A metric fuck-ton of people

They’re asking which distro. They said they already tried Ubuntu and didn’t care for it

This is actually timely. I have this old Dell laptop that’s running mint for a jellyfin server, which out of nowhere lost its Internet connection. Well not actually lost, it just became really, really slow, like 100 kbps instead of the usual 100mbps. Turning the WiFi off and on again worked, but I still had to crawl out of my comfortable bed to do it. I’ve had the same thing happen on my windows devices though so idk.

Yeah I can see that. Can it breath ok like that?

I wish the port was on the bottom in the first place. Ditto audio jacks on phones (while they lasted, rip)
