niucllos@lemm.eeto Politics@beehaw.org•Lawsuit Alleges 'Secretly Altered' Vote Machines Stole Election From Kamala Harris8·24 days agoIdk if this is what they meant but I don’t care if it’s true if the machine altered votes, if it’s suspicious they should do a paper recount either way and prove the machine integrity or lack thereof.
niucllos@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Finally making the move to Linux, and I have questions before I get started.4·1 month agoI’ve had good success either using steam (proton is basically seamless and mostly runs by itself in the background without me having to do anything), or lutris for non-steam games

At least you didn’t spend $40k for the privilege
niucllos@lemm.eeto Android@lemdro.id•OnePlus 13 'Mini' reportedly pairs two 50MP cameras with 6.31-inch displayEnglish9·5 months agoThat’s a bigger screen than my pixel 6a, which is borderline unusable one handed for me. I’m in the market for a new, smaller phone, but unless they’ve warped space to get this thing smaller I don’t know how it completes against all the non ‘mini’ phones which will be mere millimeters larger
Eggs are about $4.50 near Charlotte, NC for the cheapest dozen in budget stores like Aldi as of a few days ago. About 6 months ago they were closer to $1.35, so this is a massive increase for us even if it’s cheap compared to other parts of the country.

Except it went dark before the law had a chance to be enforced, and was back up before trump was ever in office and able to use executive orders. So points 3 and 4 have nothing to do with the actual law and are decisions completely from within tiktok
There was actually just a very detailed gastropod episode on this, but the tl;dl version is that a vitamin isn’t a specific thing the way a protein or a carbohydrate is. It’s anything that the body needs in small amounts that isn’t something else

Hopefully this or the equivalent takes off and we can start getting fun variables in the future!
niucllos@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Study: Republicans respond to political polarization by spreading misinformation, Democrats don’t13·7 months agoYes, I 100% do. If R or D was arbitrarily assigned to everyone at birth, then no it wouldn’t make sense, but this isn’t a double-blind control study. Roughly 2/3 of those who never attended college–which for many reasons (reading comprehension, exposure to new ideas, exposure to media literacy training) probably correlates pretty strongly with ability to spot misinformation–voted R in the last election. 2/3 of those with advanced degrees–the other end of that spectrum–voted D.
OS X and iOS are completely different beasts, iOS is a closed off nightmare whereas OSX is basically just stable pretty Linux missing a few packages and costing more
Counterpoint, I grew up at a time when Mac’s still couldn’t do much outside of what apple specifically developed for them, so I learned a ton about emulation and virtual machines and such to play games or use Photoshop. I guess that supports your hypothesis, I can rock Unix command line stuff and containers like a pro, but hate figuring out drivers
niucllos@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Newsom Challenges Trump on Electric Vehicle Tax Credits | Gov. Gavin Newsom said California would fill the void for residents if the Trump administration killed a $7,500 E.V. tax credit.1·8 months agoThe smaller one, and am very happy with the decision. The selling point on the EUV is really more rear legroom, but it has a more sloped hood to look sportier so you actually have less trunk space and a smaller opening unfortunately. It also gets less range by a bit, and has a longer hood so harder to park in a dense city if that’s a concern.
That being said, neither are fantastic road trip cars. I’ve taken it ~4 hours away, but you have to stop for about an hour on both outbound and return legs to comfortably make it and be able to drive around your destination. And I wish the trunk was ~1 inch longer or a bit flatter, you can only fit a normal rolling suitcase in the center, so it’s almost a 3-suitcase trunk with room on top but is actually only 2 without some significant Tetris.
niucllos@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Newsom Challenges Trump on Electric Vehicle Tax Credits | Gov. Gavin Newsom said California would fill the void for residents if the Trump administration killed a $7,500 E.V. tax credit.3·8 months agoSmaller EVs like the nissan leaf or the Chevy bolt (rip) can be had for less than most lightly used cars with the tax credit, my 2023 new bolt was 22k with tax etc., whereas comparable small hatchback/sedans from e.g. Honda were 25k+ for a 2020 model. The median income for Californians is ~$45k, so as long as the credit isn’t used for things like the hummer or Porsche evs this is probably helping a lot of middle- and middle-low income people, though not lower income unfortunately

niucllos@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is something that sounds 100% false but is actually 100% true?English1·2 years agoIf you’ve ever played around with an old-style lighter (think classic Zippo) you’d get it! They’re fairly expensive, and aren’t airtight so they need to be refilled every few days/weeks. If you fill them too much they need to be kept upright or they’ll spill lighter fluid on you. Super cool and can hold flames for a while but not nearly as conventient as a matchbook for quick fire lighting
It’s not fully featured but the remarkable series of epaper tablets are supposed to be pretty good and run a Linux fork. The supernote family run a version of Android that’s very stripped down and doesn’t require an account or an Internet connection ever.
