And ban all Israelis

You’re in luck because bluesky is literally the only one with that exact feature. Just search for user lists, which you can use to subscribe en-masse, or, conversely, nothing’s preventing you from using them as block lists. There are probably few out there where bots monitor for anyone who ever spoke hebrew, which should fit your purpose

To share those on linkedin and corporate slack, I guess. Or in schools, or in boomer chats or something.

Apparently, he’s not the first, and it might actually have a chance of working.

Maybe they’ve realized it after the fact? Maybe they were regulars there and/or times suddenly changed? Maybe they’re not telling something? I don’t know. As a manager I would’ve just left a number to call to check what’s up, and as visitor this review wouldn’t affect my decision to go there anyway.

I wouldn’t jump on to blame on the customer. In fact, have my own hill I’m fighting right now where I’m not completely in the right. Who knows, maybe the working hours were not visible, or maybe there was no closed sign at all. In any case, this made at least one person mad and is a perfect opportunity for a business to do a retro and check if they might need to do something about it. It’s much more valuable than a thousandth review from someone who had a great time… or didn’t, but didn’t care to review either. And, unless your business is genuinely bad, even a Karen once in a while shouldn’t affect the total score a bit.

And it’s wrong, though. In Russia, we use space to separate thousands (with the exception of 4 digit numbers) - 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10 000, 100 000, 1 000 000 etc. People who care about formatting use a special thin space instead.

For decimal point, commas are used in bureaucratic environments because of some GOST or something, while normal people use dots, because windows calculator doesn’t accept commas, and neither does Excel if I’m not mistaken. So it’s kind of both on that front.

Isn’t their whole *maxxing thing all about working on themselves? (abeit, with highly questionable methods and goals)

Penistone*

It’s rock hard

and it has decent citations

Not a case anymore, unfortunately. There are leftist meme articles that only cite tweets and buzzfeed reposting said tweets, but if you try to do anything about it, your edits will be instantly reverted and your account will get banned.

It’s such a bullshit though. It’s all 18650’s on the inside, and there’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to just swap them out. It’s just they are dangerous if shorted (but not as dangerous as powertools), and the actual cell manufacturers just want to shift liability on the end-user device manufacturers, so they won’t officially sell them to you. And the latter of course love this because it makes it easy to vendor-lock you in.

Solution - buy batteries off aliexpress and the likes. I’m pretty sure the Chinese folk have it all figured out a long time ago, probably even have the adapters for every brand. Alternative, take dead batteries to your local electronics repair shop, they are likely to be able to perform the swap.

Web developer here. The problem here is not with emails but with change.org’s business model, which is reliant on lying to people that their petitions actually mean anything. But, anyone with half a brain cell can easily spot that they don’t have any legal backing whatsoever nor do they do any kind of identity verification, therefore those petitions are completely worthless. They might as well not give a fuck and allow cheating. For all they care, it only boosts counters and makes them appear more popular than they actually are.

I have all my admin/mail/webmaster/etc blacklisted a long time ago because those are the that get spam first when spammers parse lists of registered domains.

I wonder if abuse@'s get any spam…

I know that it’s a rage-bait. I just looked up the shit they do in Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia and threw some together for the defenders of gender segregation to see. Thought I was replying to someone so it’d be clear, but oh well, my fish memory.

brb gonna change my private school’s status to a urinal because I believe that women’s place is at home and therefore they shouldn’t get any education. For a good a good measure, I’ll do the same to the office building, the driving school, and the airline I own.

It would be interesting to see to be honest

I still have the video I’ve sent to them at some point, it describes it in all detail, if you can bear my accent..

I’ve had laptops before where the video ports would only connect to the dGPU, and the internal screen used Optimus (display output from the iGPU with graphics acceleration from the dGPU on demand). Lots of dual GPU laptops are MUXless like that in fact.

Yeah, I’ve had some of those. Actually owned one of the first generation optimus laptops and it was horrible, most of the time it did not pick up the heavy load and stayed on iGPU even when playing games. Seems to be much improved a lot in win10-11, but I still prefer the kill-switch.

This one kind of works like that too, though. The MUX only controls which GPU the main panel is connected to (and with it, the framebuffer). The modes basically are:

• “Eco” where only iGPU is enabled
• “Hybrid” where iGPU is main and maintains framebuffer while offloading work to dGPU when needed just as you’ve described
• “Ultimate” with Nvidia as main, which apparently gives much better framerate and latency because it does not require overhead of workload offloading and framebuffer shuffling, but the dGPU is by far the most power hungry device at 150W TDP which drains the battery in mere minutes, even on idle

I have had issues with dual GPU systems like that on Linux

I feel you. My previous setup was a desktop with both AMD and Nvidia cards, which I juggled between the host and VM. It was pain, mostly because Nvidia did not want to play nicely. Also because most utilities assumed I had Intel APU — I didn’t, but it was fair assumption at a time. Nowadays, it seems like everything’s sorted out, even VFIO was a breeze to set up (though what for, most games now play on linux nowadays thanks to steamdeck)

Maybe you’re right, but I haven’t seen a GPU that doesn’t have at least 4 distinct outputs in a while, not that I’d expect one in a machine of this class either. The problem, if I were to guess, is that this machine has AMD iGPU with Nvidia dGPU and a switchable MUX on top of that so it could boot with(or without) either as primary. That’s like three points of failure already. On top of that, I had the main panel cracked and badly malfunctioning, so I’ve removed it, just in case, for about a month while I waited for replacement. I guess some firmware update did not expect the main panel to be missing(or to have different s/n) during update and did something stupid to the mux setting that made it so that two outputs can’t be active simultaneously. I’ve tried to reach someone half-competent at ASUS for like a couple months, then just said “fuck it” and installed linux. Now living happily with 6 displays up and running, theoretically up to 9 if I do some output splitting shenanigans. Someday I’ll actually build that setup just to dunk on that rep who told me it could only handle 3.

This is a terrible video. 20 minutes just to say “bad customer support”. But then, who does nowadays?

On a sidenote, the pearl, the jewel I got from their CS is “WeLL I gUeSs tHiS LaPtOP oNlY sUpPoRtS ThReE ScReEnS iN tOtAl”. Bitch! This laptop has 3 separate video outputs! And 2 screens built-in! The fuck is 3 total? Besides, it totally worked until some botched update on their side…

You mean, how long they will be actively putting trackers and malware into it? I mean, win 10 is where it all started, 11 is just continuing it.

I have a wacom-type pen for a tablet that uses one of those. It was a total pain in the ass the time I was traveling and accidentally discharged it by jamming the button in a tight-packaged bag. Turns out, they are pretty much only available online. No normal shop ever stocks them, not even electronics shops nor radio shacks. Barely anyone even heard of them. Tried disassembling a few 9V’s, but all of them were the stacked kind. And with international shipping going 2-6 weeks and me changing locations more often than that, it was an extremely difficult to get hold of them.

No, lmao, but can’t deny Russia has some nice things, even though by having those it is shooting itself in the foot. Like 2012 elections where they’ve basically said “Look, we have the entire election committee in the bag - еhey can draw us whatever results we want. But, let’s try to legitimize those elections in the eyes of the people! Let’s put a camera on every single polling station and let anyone watch them online, so that everyone can see how fair our elections are!”. As you might imagine, during the election, all social medias got completely flooded by recordings of voting fraud… And yes, people instantly noticed that the price for those cameras was like 10x of their market value, with 90% of costs landing straight into government officials pockets…
