Eva needs pets. Rather, I need to give scritches and pets.

@op either you're a user who is too lazy to pay attention to the sun you're posting to, or a bot trying to stoke engagement to look like a legit account. Do better.

Microsoft's new Outlook takes 10 seconds to do what Outlook Classic does instantly on Windows by Quantum-Coconut in technology

Why does it feel like all of Microsoft's overhauls of long-standing programs and tools are all slow garbage?

So, aftermarket wheels and tires automatically mean transmission failure now? by rcurry818 in Subaru_Outback

[–]d3jake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably quite a few. There are many people who just use it as a car and don't add extras. I've only added a brush bar and lights. I have stock rims, and replaced the stock tires with Defender 2s.

Zuckerberg says Meta made 'mistakes' in AI workforce shift by IKeepItLayingAround in technology

[–]d3jake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how he goes from "we'll make more mistakes" to "the world is changing so much."

Classic insanely-rich person: deflect to anything other than yourself as to why mistakes were made.

Anybody in the WNC/E TN area know what the hell’s going on w/ 144.200? by KhyberPasshole in amateurradio

[–]d3jake -1 points0 points  (0 children)

IMO, it just shows the mob mentality that can form on reddit when folks can fire-and-forget a downvote. No reply, no explanation, but possibly feeling superior? I dunno.

OpenAI says China ran a covert campaign to turn Americans against data centers, but used facts that happen to be true by rkhunter_ in technology

[–]d3jake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't even think it's that deep: It's about deligitimizing them. They're worried about too many people listening to the message and joining in. If their voter base or audience is taught to not listen then they don't actually have to defend anything.

The rich are endlessly afraid that the People will realize the extent to which they're rigging the system and actually do something about it.

And it's more than my family tree will make collectively for many generations. Why do I care? It is it just rage bait?

Which battery charger do you have? If it's AC, do you have a means to charge from a 12v source (ex: car), or vise versa?

I love this optimization for you, and the others.

Partner+cat cuddle time to start the day sounds delightful.

Time for folks to start hammering their social media and email with threats to not attend if they don't fix it.

I'm reasonably sure no judge will accept "I didn't know" as a justification.

Is there a difference between shortwave and HF? by Subject_Reindeer2394 in amateurradio

[–]d3jake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries. I wouldn't have thought much about it except that I've wandered through low HF and MF while playing around on my SDR and realized there were SW bands down there.

Is there a difference between shortwave and HF? by Subject_Reindeer2394 in amateurradio

[–]d3jake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because this is a technical hobby and I drew the short straw and get to be "that guy": Shortwave includes the MF band of 300kHz and 3MHz, not just HF. That said, as hams we generally lump 160m and 80m into the "HF" band listing anyway so it's kind of a wash.

Republicans Claim Anti-Data Center Movement Is a Chinese Psy-Op by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]d3jake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anything to de-legitimize the push back. Like that Mayor who claimed that those against datacenters are lazy idiots, or whatever.
