Our roborock robot vacuum runs Ubuntu (I’m not joking)

:3

The new ones were garbage anyways. Mine is stuck at a polling rate of 10hz, and the acceleration is god awful

Props for having the guts to take a lithium battery apart so you could wire the usb cable to the bms.

I guess it’s sort of safe in that the bms would shut itself down if the voltage is too high because it thinks the battery is overcharged, but I still wouldn’t recommend using it in this config as I’m sure the usb port can’t provide the same amount of current as the original phone battery, so the phone might shut down.

Here’s a safer way to do it if you want to run that phone without a battery

Yea id reply the same way…

Oh onlyoffice works great! It’s spreadsheet function is far less buggy than excel and it’s smooth and snappy.

I don’t remember the full story, but it seems like the dev got fed up with feature requests/bug rapports so they decided to delete the source code and their online accounts.

Damn. This article is so well crafted that I legitimately thought Google was being Google

Works the same for pedestrians. Carry a brick, and you’re safe

What. The. Actual. Fuck. Google.

That’s it… I sent my general practitioner a message to get tested for adhd and autism. It’s gonna be fun to find out where on the spectrum I land

I made my desktop wallpaper with JSplacement before that project disappeared off the internet. The background is pretty boring because i wanted some color, but knew that i would rarely see it (I always have multiple layers of programs opened at all times)

My phone’s pixel art wallpaper was made in photoshop (turns out that’s a really bad program for pixel art)

I’d honestly love a wall of shame for websites and “tech products” that showcases their hostility to users trying to circumvent their tracking

https://www.onlyoffice.com
Or
https://www.libreoffice.org/

It’s because the apps work as black boxes stopping the end user from blocking their telemetry, advertising and tracking.

What I hate more is how companies deliberately add blocks to their websites if you’re on mobile so as to force the user to download the app.

Two of the most egregious samples I’ve seen so far is Microsoft teams that shows a banner saying “this browser is not supported”, but switching your user agent or enabling desktop mode from within your phone’s browser makes it work perfectly fine.

Another is Facebook (yuck) which displays a fake loading bar that never finishes unless you trick it the same way as with teams. Their mobile site prevents you from posting anything, commenting, viewing random posts, uploading files, or seeing notifications. If you don’t have the app installed, you’re essentially locked out of messenger because it is reluctant at opening any shared files or posts as that has to be opened through the facebook app (obviously). What’s worse is I’m prompted to log in to Facebook every time I open any link Facebook or not from within messenger.

I’d love to fully uninstall meta’s apps but I have family members that only use their apps (fuck the networking effect)

That makes sooo much sense. Wow

Bro stop targeting me. This hits wayyy to close to home

That’s 3pm in scandinavia

I remember my first job at McDonald’s, and this was literally their onboarding. Didn’t watch any videos or anything. They just asked:“you know how to make a burger right?” to someone who never eats at any fastfood place. That was a rough week

Be careful because Sam altman might steal it for his worldcoin bs
