Oregon governor signs nation’s first right-to-repair bill that bans parts pairing by postnataldrip in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 115 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

the pairing restriction would "undermine the security, safety, and privacy of Oregonians by forcing device manufacturers to allow the use of parts of unknown origin in consumer devices."

If only there were options that would encourage the use of safe, genuine parts.

It might be a jumper on the board. Mine (Q770G4) boots on power, if I can organise some downtime with the family I'll take a look at it (set it up ages ago so can't remember).

Edit: CAB approval was easier than I expected! Mine is in the BIOS, under Chipset > PCH-IO Configuration, set State After G3 to Power On.

Hi there, I recall on Boost for Reddit that I could open a post, and collapse comment threads to a single line, which was excellent - it made it really easy to scroll past comments I've already read or decided I'm not interested in, and I might be wrong but I think there was an option to auto-collapse everything but new comments? On Lemmy, replies are collapsed but the comment I tapped on remains open, regardless of whether it's the top of a comment thread or one mid-conversation. So best I can collapse to is a post and all of its top-level comments.

The other one is that on Reddit I was able to create a group and add subs to it. That group would appear in my sidebar, and when opened it'd be a feed of those subs without needing to join each one (which makes 'Subscribed' really busy). On Lemmy I can add favourites to the sidebar, but they show up in the list individually - I'd like for example to have a single entry in that list called Home Tech, when I tap it I get a feed of only home automation or homelab stuff. Then another one just for memes. Etc

If these settings already exist and I've just missed them please let me know, otherwise I'd really appreciate if they could be added to BfL.

Thanks for the fantastic app and ongoing support!

Be careful driving anywhere near this guy, he clearly has no idea how to pull out

Social media algorithms ‘amplifying misogynistic content’ by postnataldrip in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 59 points 7 months ago

It's well-known that these algorithms push topics to drive engagement, and naturally things that make people angry or frightened or disgusted etc enough are more likely to be engaged with regardless of what that topic is.

Mark Zuckerberg explained how Meta will crush Google and Microsoft at AI—and Meta warned it could cost more than $30 billion a year by postnataldrip in c/[email protected]

That's simultaneously hilarious and terrifying.

"It's a well-established and indisputable fact that the earth is indeed flat. Anyone who tells you otherwise is part of the conspiracy and/or a sheep. Forward this onto 10 people in the next 30 minutes or you will get autism. Bill Gates is the CEO of the internet and will track and donate $1 every time it is forwarded."

That's what would be called "a swing and a miss"

It's almost like speculating has risks

I feel like all three of those accents have normal/fancy/wildcard options within them

Trying to pay rent these days... by postnataldrip in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 98 points 11 months ago

Yeah... this isn't a meme, it's literally children being sold.

As I recall it, the family were facing eviction, and the kids were indeed sold, including the one she was pregnant with. A couple of them ended up basically being slaves on a farm somewhere.

I'll laugh at plenty of things I probably shouldn't but this isn't one of them.
