Same here.
I jumped on Ryzen in 2017 when it seemed to be actually taking a step forward.
Then I’ve just…not needed a new CPU since then. A GPU 3 years later, but other than that, I’m trucking along nicely.

Trouble is, nobody knows where it’s at.

In that case, the NHS (assuming they don’t have a separate agreement) will have to reduce the amount of it they dispense.
Our health spending is pretty much capped each year: If the price of a drug rises, then the impact/£ ratio will eventually shift that money towards treating something else.

I had a really chatty test, it was great.
It doesn’t sound like a bad idea. Some people would prefer a more human experience test, and others would prefer a more “exam conditions” formal one.

Or in true shit company fashion, promise to follow the rules, not follow them, then sue/petition the various bodies that they can’t make money unless the rules are removed.

Not at all surprised.
A Large, even with the DFS-style half-price offer, is £12.50 for a 13.5".
And they’ve apparently started charging £3.50 for delivery.

Meanwhile, my local pizza place is £14 for a 18".

I found it was well worth ripping to flac securely using EAC (no idea what the modern setup is).
As then I knew I had a perfect copy to make whatever MP3 I wanted in the future from.

Nowadays, I convert everything to V0 for portable use, but who knows what the future may hold.

I’m returning to car boot sales to buy cubic meters of CDs.
That, and BandCamp.

Somebody explain this to an old person please :|

Is this satire, or genuinely unhinged?

Making the job uncomfortable won’t help make the police more reasonable.
It’ll just drive reasonable people away, while not affecting people joining just to have power.

I found the docks had their flaws, but on the whole they were a decent proposition, especially when sourced second hand.
We did find that for units that the fans went mad on (1 in 20 or so), taking them apart, checking the fan connector, and removing the bottom rubber fixed it.

The power-off-frames bug is infuriating. Thankfully, any decent managed switch prevents it.

The answer is, you have to buy a Proper ™️ one.

With active cooling, a power supply, and proper Lightning etc. support.

I buy Dell WD19TB units second hand from CeX for about £60. New, they cost several hundred.
Even then, they have issues (fans staying on, and a STUPID bug where turning off the machine causes power-off packets to spam the network).
But for general work, they’re very reliable.

One of us, one of us!
Reach out if you have any issues. The dashboards are basically one step away from the configuration, you’ll probably have one sooner than you think!

Also, when you start playing with the light, check out grouping. Very swish having one button to turn all the lights in the house off.

Same way people moving to the UK are referred to as migrants, but people leaving the UK call themselves ex-pats.

And the thin pins means that with any weight (wall-wart, etc.), it starts to come out.
Doubly so if it’s set into thin plasterboard that already wobbles.

Owl in owl.

Lemmy honestly tends to run on the ideas of “be the change you want to see in the world” and “well volunteered”.
Stick a post up, see if people are interested.
You could message the mods. While they don’t seem to have posted for a while, there are mod actions happening still.
And if you don’t hear anything back, put it as a suggestion to the admins.

Honestly, it’s because it went in early days.
When ML generated art was a novelty, and people hadn’t had a chance to sit down and go “wait, actually, no”.
And it’s an absolute arsepain to replace, because you’ll get 1001 prompt engineers defending slop.
feddit.uk banned generative AI content to make this process easier, and still needs to sweep through and commission new art for a few communities.

Crap idea? Check.
Unpopular with everyone? Check.
Lumbered on the current government by the previous, so hard to reverse quickly? Check.
The conservatives (and Labour’s lack of action) just handed reform a beautiful less-racist onramp.
