I did not say that, and I did not imply it either. I was telling you what you can do to improve your interactions with this community and it’s mods.

I was given moderator privileges a few hours ago. I have not yet seen those comments, and had nothing to do with them.

I suggest taking some time away from this to clear your head before making further comments. It’s hard to argue in good faith while angry.

I’m always happy to listen to feedback, and change my behaviour when I’m wrong.

I will not be removing comments just because they have been reported, or just because I disagree with them. I will only be removing comments that explicitly break the rules as listed on the sidebar. You are welcome to report any comment you believe should be removed. There is no penalty for incorrectly reporting something if it is done in good faith (i.e. don’t report everything just because I said no penalty).

While not explicitly against rule 1 (Be nice), I believe “zionist rats” could have been phrased as “zionists” or “zionist people” while still making the same point.

SponsorBlock works pretty well.

I think you already got your answer here https://mander.xyz/post/49981172

I’ve found apexcharts-card to be fairly configurable and good looking. I’ve put 2 different data types on the one graph and used two axes (price left, % right). Sometimes the values get “stuck”, but a refresh fixes it.

I upgraded from a Pi2 to a second hand thinkpad. It went from underpowered to also running a NAS and a factorio server with plenty of precessing power to spare. I’ve used it for several other projects as needed. Docker compose makes everything trivial.

Car travel is massively subsidised. The road maintenance, emergency services, new road construction, traffic light electricity, smart highway monitoring, snow ploughing and more are subsidised for roads.

Many railways are privately owned, so all costs are paid by the owner or anyone who uses it. If railways had similar subsidies to roads they would be far cheaper.

Mine has overwritten grub on a second disk. If you really want to be safe, unplug all drives you don’t want Windows messing with before installing or updating Windows.

I don’t see what all the fuss is about.

I personally think there is a (sometimes subtle) difference between paid software and harmful software.

Meta and X are definitely causing harm, but is something like Synergy? Sure, it costs money, but that money seems to be going to the developers. That would be no worse than paying a street vendor for food.

Likewise, finding an open-source virus and using it to hack people doesn’t absolve you of guilt.

While many large corporations tend toward capitalism, corruption and even fascism, I believe there is a lot more nuance than just paid vs free or closed vs open source.

Very fancy.

I’ve been using Home Assistant with data from a house battery, but that does look to be a much cheaper option if you don’t have or want a house battery.

Panasonic does sometimes licence the patent to other companies. I would love an inverter microwave, but they aren’t made with the other features I want.

What app is that?

Panasonic owns the patent for an inverter microwave that can actually do 50% power.

With inverters being common in solar installations and electric cars, it would seem that someone else could just put that part in a microwave, but fortunately the patent prevents that.

It’s nice to know that although I can’t buy the model of microwave that I want with the features I want, at least a single company can prevent everyone else’s progress and even make a tiny bit of extra profit at the same time.

In Australia, Woolworths got reprimanded for selling fuel at a loss. They had a deal where you could buy groceries to earn points which could get you cheaper fuel at their fuel stations. Other companies couldn’t compete, and Woolworths was only able to sustain it because the extra profit they made from selling groceries covered the loss on the fuel.

Many companies have done similar. Uber operated at a loss for years to force taxi companies into bankruptcy, then put their prices up to higher than the taxis had been after the competition was gone.
Comcast had very cheap internet prices in any area where Google was offering Google Fibre, but exceedingly high prices (and worse service) in areas with no competition. Google couldn’t compete on price because Comcast could afford to operate at a loss in a few areas, and Google couldn’t afford to start offering internet across the entire country during it’s startup phase.

It could be done, but big businesses don’t play fairly. They have lots of money to spend on driving you our of business, and lots of future profits as incentive to do so.

I don’t recommend opening it unless you really know what you’re doing and have the safety equipment. Microwaves and CRT monitors are the two things that can kill instantly if you touch the wrong part.

I’ve just replaced a 34 year old microwave. I hate all the new models, I just want something simple that will last practically forever.

It started making an electrical ticking/buzzing noise. I tried contacting 2 microwave repair companies and both said they won’t touch it.

I’m keeping it in storage just in case it magically fixes itself when the new one fails.
