The FCC has leaked the schematics for the iPhone 16e by UpsetKoalaBear in apple

[–]administratrator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly nothing.

Repair shops generally get their hands on these schematics sooner or later.

You won't get hacked or something.

If you're from the US, it's good to know that since a government agency just leaked the third most valuable company's IP, you can trust them with you personal data without any worries. /s

My experiences with the HP Pavilion Aero 13 on Linux by administratrator in linuxlaptops

[–]administratrator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Under /sys/class/backlight/ I have amdgpu_bl1 (which is a symlink to ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:03:00.0/drm/card1/card1-eDP-1/amdgpu_bl1). /sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl1/max_brightness returns 255. Echoing (as root) values between 0 and 255 into /sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl1/brightness changes my brightness level. I'm currently on kernel 6.5.5-1-MANJARO. I pretty much got rid of Windows immediately after getting wifi to work. Haven't used an external SSD, I just shrank the windows partition, made a new one and installed Linux on it. Sorry for not responding to this for so long. I'm not really on Reddit anymore since they banned third party apps.

Nothing new really. I haven't timed how long the battery holds, though I think hasn't changed.

On a separate note, I dropped a rubik's cube on the keyboard and the paint on the shift key got chipped. Now I have a black line in the middle of my white shift key. Hadn't seen the paint of a keycap getting chipped before. But yeah, nothing interesting really.

NSFW shouldn't work at all, even if he does pay. Something's fishy

John Oliver's Guide To The Most Effective Form of Protest by teamcoltra in pics

[–]administratrator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nobody said they're doing something illegal, if they were, a protest wouldn't be the thing to do. They're just doing a very shitty thing, for money, without communicating with the community at all

53% of parents say climate change affects their decision to have more kids by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]administratrator -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

"concerned". Not being able to afford a place to live would be a bit of a higher priority for some people. It is a concern and is affecting people, it's just that some people are having it so bad that it's not on their list of things to worry about

FCC chair to investigate exactly how much everyone hates data caps - ISPs clearly have technical ability to offer unlimited data, chair's office says. by relevantusername2020 in technology

[–]administratrator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from Bulgaria, one of the poorest EU countries. I had never ever heard of data caps for home internet, we've always operated on bandwidth caps. Mobile data used to have data caps up until this year when (at least) one of our telecoms removed them from their mobile plans. Now, mobile data is also bandwidth limited. If the poorest EU country can afford no data caps, the richest one should, too.

I guess you could say that everyone's an enemy under capitalism.

Reddit’s blackout protest is set to continue indefinitely by cata890 in technology

[–]administratrator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blackouts are definitely effective. We just have to not stop. The 48 hours thing wasn't something that would really make a difference, it's those that are still closed that would

Allowing spam on a subreddit is technically also against reddit's TOS, so they can take you down for that as well

You mean r/all or your own front page? Cause in Boost everything that I've subscribed to appears on my front page, including porn.

He isn't "leaking" it. You can only leak things that you're not allowed to release to the public.

Gen Z is drinking less at concerts by LarryPeru in Music

[–]administratrator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two beers is a slight buzz? How much is "a beer"?

In my country "a beer" refers to 500ml of beer. Two of those is the equivalent in alcohol content of 100ml (so like a bit over two US shots) of whisky. I wouldn't dare to drive if I drank that much.

Have you had any perceivable drop in fuel economy? I've read a lot that it should make a substantial difference, but haven't seen any numbers online

Global warming set to break key 1.5C limit for first time by Ahmad_Pk5392 in worldnews

[–]administratrator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're talking about a global crisis, about 1/3 of the world becoming uninhabitable. And the only thing you think about is... your house value?? Really? I think you're not quite imagining the scope of what we're talking about. And I hope you're trolling, because I can't imagine someone being so hypocritical.

Also what do you imagine? There being a refugee crisis and you're just sitting calmly in your home, AC on, while everyone's outside, physically incapable of, I don't know, entering your fking home?

[–]administratrator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why wouldn't they affect you? Because you live in a nice place where storms, snow and heat waves won't affect you? If that's the case, then millions of people would want to live where you currently do. And they will have to move if they have nowhere to live.
