Yeah, functionality between these varies, I know some of them can tell you what capabilities the cable’s chip spits out.

An example I randomly picked:

These days a ~10€ gadget can tell you about the electricity going through a USB connection and what the cable is capable of. I don’t like the idea of basically requiring this to get that knowledge, but considering the limited space on the USB-C plugs I’m not sure anything is likely to improve about their labeling.

You’re probably not the only one out there. Maybe someone else would see it differently and pound your head in for less. That frees up the sandwich and anything else in your possession.

Selbes gilt für Alkohol und Zigaretten, sind trotzdem verboten weil es Sinn macht und den Zugang erschwert.

Ist das wirklich lustig, auf eine ironische Art, oder vielleicht einfach nervig, weil es die meisten nicht lesen können?

Which is 99% due to you being used to that.

Have you treated it with anything to make it move easier?

So what’s the allowance for people’s homes in your world? Two rooms and one more for each kid?

Housing should be more controlled, but "need’ will always be a fuzzy term if you still want to allow individuals to have different levels of wealth. Nobody needs a huge home, either. Two or three rooms, actually…maybe a little more with kids.

It’s not “but”, it’s “at least”.

Going by your comments, I think you need to know a few basics before you get into people’s suggestions for actual services. Start with this: more or less, “the cloud” is just someone else’s computer. It’s bigger, the connection is faster, etc., but the services you use most likely run on a Linux computer much like the one you already have.

For experimenting with the topic, it would be good to have another computer that you can mess around with and not worry about having a usable machine. If you can cobble together a desktop from old parts it will be enough to start the learning process.

It doesn’t have to be a civil war. Unless the brain dead MAGA crowd sides with the obscenely rich, a couple of hangings would do.

Either way, if you think a few lemmy comments will turn the tide then it’s already too late.

If engineers were the ones in control that would mean something.

As I see it, phone manufacturers have zero reasons to keep the battery degradation low, but many reasons to push advertised capacity and charging speed. If you were cynical, you could also assume that they’re trying to make sure the battery doesn’t last too long because they want to keep selling new phones.

They would act very differently if they expected armed resistance at every corner. This isn’t a war.

This whole thing of preserving battery life is something for people that want to use a phone for 5+ years without needing a new battery.

That’s a narrow point of view. It’s also reducing the ecological impact if a device’s battery isn’t trashed after two years, someone else would likely use it.

Consider yourself lucky. We were digging the ground with shovels near a horse park where they had a competition. A river separates the two areas.

They asked us to stop because the horses were freaking out.

CAD on Linux sucks. Most is made as Windows only, and many people have tried running it through Wine (Bottles) or other janky methods. Don’t even try it.

How is gaming not a problem any more, but CAD is? Shouldn’t the same tools work to enable both?

Eh, from what I’ve seen over the years I would think he lost control of his own narrative, and can’t find a satisfying way to get everything together. Or the series finale was actually reasonably close to the intended book ending, and he doesn’t feel like confirming that this pile of dung was really his.

Colonial powers, all of them west of Germany. Not sure why Western Europe as a whole should shoulder the same amount of blame.
