Musk accuses Ukraine leader of ‘feeding off dead bodies of soldiers’ in vicious rant in c/[email protected]
[–] Corkyskog 2 points 17 minutes ago

I think this is it, Musk is playing a different game than most of the others.

He knows that there are very few dollars left to squeeze out of the free market... So he is getting in on the ground floor of a new type of oligarch fascism he likes. Now he can not only control his competition, but the very basis of USD value itself... If you the think his stock market and crypto scams were bad, you haven't seen nothing yet.

Unfortunately my toddler doesn't have the same reading interests as I... I also don't know if I could handle listening to my own voice.

Yeah, but is there anything that's not >$100/month to transcribe one book worth of audio?

He is not just a toddler, he almost definitely has dementia and likely is also abusing some sort of stimulant.

Lucky for you that you probably accidentally navigated around their filters by not talking about Elmo or Trumpty Dumpty

Its planned to happen in a few years anyway AFAIK. No idea why he cares about speeding it up.

Would an AGM battery perform better in the cold? (self.asklemmy)

My car sometimes doesn't get driven for a week at a time, between that and winter cold I am having constant issues with it dying and needing to be trickle charged. My engine also seems to want a lot of juice for it to turnover.

Would an AGM battery last longer between charges? Would it perform better in the cold? Is there any better solution than just making sure some regularly drives it a few times a week?

Edit: It seems Costco lists an AGM for my car cheaper than a lot of regular batteries, so it seems like I will find out either way... But I am still curious if people think this will solve my charging problems.

What does this open source software notice mean? (self.nostupidquestions)
 

Someone found this buried in the terms and conditions of tiktok and is saying that it somehow means Facebook owns it.

What is this actually supposed to be telling me?

Do they make a TV device or dongle to connect quickly via a number of types of inputs? (self.nostupidquestions)
 

If so what do they call it?

I feel like I am going crazy, because I thought for sure it exists and can't seem to find one.

Basically looking for an all in one device where you can plug in HDMI, USB, etc. to make it easier for guests to present.

Game suggestions for PS5 (self.patientgamers)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by Corkyskog to c/patientgamers
9 comments fedilink
 

I don't usually have much time to play games, so I have missed most games when they were popular.

I currently have a PS5 and would like some suggestions.

What I seemed to have liked:

  • Shooters with complex upgrade systems
  • Hack and slash
  • Games with interesting economies

Games I liked in the past:

  • Champions of Norrath
  • Borderlands
  • Fallout
  • Resident Evil

I don't like:

  • Games that feel too closed off
  • Games that are unnecessarily difficult
  • Really repetitive grinding
  • Sports games
  • When it doesn't let you save at any time
