Brother, do you have BEÄNS?

Brother, do you have BEÄNS?
In my 20+ years of using laptops I never ever had issues with laptop batteries that resulted in me wanting to (or having to) change them. It was always other parts that failed first.
Why would people in the right mind bind the right to vote to a document that allows you to operate a vehicle on public roads anyways?
depending on how you look
… and even more where you cross the border. If I want to go (like in “just walk there”) from Poland to Germany, I could use this bridge for example:
It’s really just an ordinary bridge across a river, no border patrol, no ID check, nothing. Just walk from one country into another.
Or if I want to cross the border from Germany to France, I could just use that publicly accessible hiking path:
(Seen from French side, the barrier where the people sit is the whole border crossing point.) And this bridge with a view brings you from France to Spain.
Except border check points you’ll find luxury housing on French side and commercial buildings (stores and some warehouses) on Spain side.
At no point in that imaginary journey (now that I think about it, this would make a great road trip with hiking parts) you need your ID card when you travel to another country.
Long story short: It’s really easy to cross borders in the EU.
I live in the EU and thus I can travel pretty far away without having to ever show my ID card. Maybe it’s just personal experience but whenever I had to show it, no-one cared about it wasn’t valid anymore.
Another trick is acting stupid: “Oh, thank you! I didn’t notice! When would a normal person check that, eh? 🙂 … Right on next Monday I’ll going to renew it!” and then hasta la vista, we won’t meet ever again anyways.
The next time I have to renew it, is in 2031. I guess I won’t renew it till 2040.
I usually ignore renewals as much as I can. My last ID card was 8 years overdue.
Not an Apple user here, but I saw it on the front page.
Is it me or does the leftmost one on the screenshot really looks the best anbd most consistent?
The IPv6 range is barely even used.
Yet.
Also I imagine that there will be a secondary market for IPv6 at some point.
Like there already is one for IPv4 addresses?
I stand by my point:
No-one will ever need a /48 range.
The ranges will become larger over time because “we have it”, and companies will get thousands of sections with figuratively unlimited IP addresses in them each.
With this huge ranges we’ll have the same problem with IPv6 in a few years that we already have with IPv4.
They not only force their user to buy their crap, they also intentionally and maliciously frame the AGPL in a certain way.
How much say do you have on the technical site of the page? Maybe have a custom icon recognized by the templating engine, using a Unicode code point from the private use area. This could be implemented using an icon font.
The commonly used symbol to represent the Fediverse is this one.
I am pretty sure @Eheran is. I just paraphrased the linked Wikipedia article section for convenience. The video on how to print in magnets still worth watching, though.
I set my homepage to communities I’m subscribed to, sorted by new.
This is the way to go!

Quoted for emphasis and confirmation.
Lesson learned, I guess 🙂 here’s some more:
At what temperature a material loses its permanent magnetic properties is called the Curie temperature. For Neodymium magnets this temperature is around 310–400°C (ca. 590–752°F). So if the heat is below that, you’re mostly safe.
Maybe look into how to design/modify a part and how you can pause your print a at a specific layer height so you can just drop in the magnets (use a drop of super glue to they won’t attach to the hot-end or make a test print with various diameters to find out the perfect width for press-fitting the magnets in) and then continue the print.
This also results in nicer looking prints because the magnets are invisible. Depending on thickness above the magnets and strength of the magnets the result might be less strong, so ideally there are only very few layers of material covering the magnets.
This is a very straightforward and in-depth video on how to do this in a good way:
“I’m not THAT old, but …”
It’s me because my reflexes are those of a sausage!
To me, this is the worst issue here.
Even large Projects suggest things that are basically
curl | sh
– without even mentioning anything about how this could be problematic.New user are “trained” doing this.
Every project suggesting it should be not only opposed but actively fought against until they change this bullshit.
