Well, since I can’t see the difference, I make advances on no one. I hated all the moments I was made aware that a woman who I was attracted to had an interest in me, though - it was always too late
But yes, most men are creeps or even worse, and women have to protect themselves. Couldn’t imagine being in their shoes

252·26 days agoThey can be dickish about several things, but they will implement whatever they want, it’s their project LOL! They actually develop a mobile operating system for people afraid of being hacked, and with the utmost security in mind.
The thing with pattern unlock is that it is inherently less secure than the other options, despite the fact that you can use one of the other options in bad ways (like the ‘0000’ PIN). Expecting them to change this is using the lowest common denominator possible, which is against their philosophy.
You do have other options if you want to deGoogle, like LineageOS, that supports a much wider range of devices (altough the extent of deGoogling can be limited). It’s good we have one ROM (among others) with paranoid devs - we have more options

411·26 days agoI love Fairphones, but GrapheneOS developers are very clear on why they son’t support phones other than Pixels. If other phones complied with those requirements, they would support them. I really hoped the OEM they’re working with to support from another brand would be Fairphone, but the most educated guess I’ve seen is Motorola

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?
6·1 month agoOnce I installed Debian on an old eMMC weak netbook for a friend after trying about 6 other distros that all had some problem or another, including Mint and Xubunto. Debian worked flawlessly
so they’ve gone full circle (or should I say sphere) and we really inhabit a sphere, just not the sphere the sheeple believe in? that’s amazing

1·2 months agoNot that I’ve noticed in the BIOS, but I’m gonna check again
Will looking into messings with TLP, thanks!

3·2 months agoIt seems very legit, specially because it’s quite different from the standard rectangular bricks of different sizes from Thinkpads that I’ve seen, like this one:

It’s a 175W charger at 20V 8.5A, but I noticed the laptop has 3 charging modes, with a more powerful one at 230W with 11.5A. Maybe that could make a difference? But shouldn’t I be able to notice the lack of juice through some value in the system?
Anyway, my older computer’s brick provides much less, at 135W with 20V 6.75A, and the computer shows better performance

2·2 months agoThe models with vapor chamber might be much better, but this one should be much better also.
The CPU throtling will definitely impact gaming but I tested quick graphic intense scenarios with low CPU load. The temps never really got high when I measure either.
I’m getting lower performance than a 4 gen older, same low-end-gaming card. I don’t need nor want a gaming powerhouse, but a 950M from 2015 getting easily 36 stable FPS in a specific scenario in Timberborn (not specially heavy) and this 3050 Ti mobile from 2021 sticking to around 27 (and lower lows!) is not normal, and this has been consistent across measurements
I’ll definitely check on the thermal past, thanks for the tip

1·2 months agoI wanna add that the previous owner said that the computer was not used for gaming, only coding work and casual stuff. Could tons of hours of compiling explain decay in the card? Would it not spoil the CPU before?
well, what did I say then? maybe you should re-read the thread and see who talked about being “kicked out”
and since we’re analysing what other lemmings are saying, do you wanna comment on your first reply to what I said?
that’s just lovely! this past summer was the first I didn’t have to change homes, after doing it for three years in a row
to explain better: I had to agree with the situation before hand, so I was not kicked out per se. the fucked up part is that when you’re trying to find a home around here, most of them have this condition that you have to accept
but I guess you knew that too, or are you full of shit also?
yeah, it’s awesome to live and work in a town and have to rent a temporary place for 3 months in summer cuz your’re priced out of your normal home, and it was rented in advance by tourist paying 4 times normal rent value
