I don’t mind the whole online menu thing. It’s probably an environmental net positive, but it’s bs if they don’t have ANY physical copies for those who can’t or don’t want to for whatever reason.
If they wanted me to install something, though, that’d be a 100% instant nope.
4·19 hours agoSorry, I should’ve been more specific. I meant the YouTube thumbnail:
That’s pretty wild too, though!
Where is that thumbnail from? It doesn’t look anything like that I saw in the video.
They really did go for the “horror movie about to go very wrong” aesthetic when they made those videos, didn’t they.
Well, you USED to be able to, anyways, but they’ve slowly moved to a less customisable ui. Now you have to use extensions from outside websites to even do simple stuff like have a multi-row tab bar.
Not to mention Firefox seems to break them every year or so.
Also, keep in mind, google has been caught slowing Firefox down in YouTube before. So if you notice any slowness in their services, it’s fair to suspect it might not be Firefox’s fault.
Ahh good, let’s put a bunch of electric heaters into the ocean. This sounds like it’ll help with the ongoing crisis in ocean temperature rise, and certainly won’t have any unforseen consequences.
7.5/10. Sweet chilli heat doritos would bump it to 9/10.
It seems to not RTFA is a time honoured tradition we’ve carried with us from Slashdot, to reddit, and now to Lemmy.
Drrr drrr drrr
14·3 days agoYou’re correct. Guess that’s what I get for regurgitating info that I haven’t vetted myself. I think the jist of my post still stands, though.
Between Jan 1, 2010 and Jan 1, 2024, there were only 2 large passenger airplane incidents, with a total of 4 deaths between them.
I like it if it’s really really subtle. Basically the minimum length vibration, which is 2ms on heliboard.
Anything longer, I find annoying.
I mean, he really has. None in 16 years, then something like 8 in under 2 months?
It’s still a tiny fraction of the some 100k daily commercial flights, but it’s still alarming .
The company says it’s the thinnest foldable phone at 3.6 millimeters (0.14 inches),
I mean, it better be, otherwise, if its 3x as thick in your pocket, that’s going to be one chonky phone.
3.6 × 3 = 10.8 mm folded. It’s definitely on the thicker side, but not outlandishly so.
I know, it’s a bit counterintuitive. But look at the Cheeto as a prime example. He’s one of the biggest cheapskates around. He’ll try and get out of paying for anything he possibly can. It’s all slash and burn tactics with these people. It’s all they know. They don’t care if their bodyguards are from temu, because they’re largely just for show.
I’m sorry… you think CEOs would be cheap with protecting their own lives?
Quite literally, yes. Their commitment to being as cheap as possible is pathological. Not frugal, cheap.
Absolutely. Almost no CEO would’ve had a security detail before now. Also, minimising costs is their lifeblood. They’ll definitely be using this.
Your average paranoid Joe can’t afford to hire some goons to hang around him. And the people on the board of investors don’t need celebrity like CEOs do, so they’re largely unknown to the public, so don’t need this service.
It’s literally being marketed to them…
From the article:
Who is this for, you might ask? A video posted on January 6, 2025, that runs just over two minutes gives the game away. It opens with a photo of assassinated UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. “We’re going to run through a scenario to demonstrate, where if a Protector had been present, crisis could have been averted,” the Protector says in the video. He then runs through several fantasy versions of the assassination where a Protector is on hand to prevent the assassin from killing the CEO.
Also,
This is for people with more money than sense who are also paranoid as fuck.
You’ve just described CEOs.
Yeah, exactly. If you’re worried about the power draw to host a few hundred KB PDF file, you probably shouldn’t be using Lemmy, because scrolling through your feed probably uses 100x that in energy costs.
You have to remember that the shared hosting or aws, or wherever is going to be cheapest to host a simple website is also going to be very power efficient. Wasting power is just throwing away free money, and if there’s one thing corporations don’t do, it’s throw away free money.
