I'm from space!

  • That’s my point. All I see is a pedo van now.

  • You’re right. I’m an idiot.

  • To be fair, Brandan Carr is who Trump has running the FCC. He is corrupt as fuck, he’s made some bonehead moves, and he drafted large parts of project 2025.

    Results may vary if you’re reporting this to his FCC.

  • Memes @lemmy.ml

    This Brandon Bird painting hits differently this week

  • Weird. I never noticed that. I bump mine up a bit from the default, but I don’t max it out. That’s way too fast for me to handle.

    I do know there are ton of apps that will override the defaults. I think the OG better touch tool will let you max that thing to warp speed.

  • Although, in the v26 operating systems, cracks are showing. A lot of IT orgs are holding off on Tahoe for as long as possible.

  • True, but enterprise hardware has never been something that IT departments really wanted to upgrade. Even back when everyone had upgradable towers under their desk, IT departments just wanted to kit you out with something that lasted 3 years, then was replaced.

    Hell, in the before times, when I’ve even wanted more storage, all of my IT departments were more inclined to give me an external HD than open a computer case. They’re busy and they generally want to do whatever is fast.

  • IMHO, it depends on the company, their data retention and security policy, and what you mean by “locked down.”

    I’ve had IT departments that are comfortable giving everyone admin accounts and full sharing access, and IT departments that control every little thing that goes in and out of your machine.

  • My guess that they’re trying to standardize around a platform that has a) no Microsoft, b) won’t cause product / UX / marketing to totally revolt, c) is well supported as an engineering platform (in Silicon Valley)

  • Interesting. I’ve got of gripes with Apple hardware (price, upgradability, silly things like notches and Touch Bars,) but trackpads has never been one of them. I’ve always thought the’ve had some of the best trackpads.

    What trackpad do you prefer and why?

  • Yup

  • When recently onboarding for a new job I heard something I never thought I would hear in my life.

    Everyone was given a Mac. Eng, design, finance, HR. Everyone. In my onboarding cohort, someone in finance asked if they could have a Windows PC, which has been the backbone of finance orgs for decades. IT said no. They just didn’t want to deal with Microsoft’s enterprise ecosystem.

  • That dagger is to cut quadrilateral bitches.

  • Only want this tech so we can create an island of organ donor slaves that we can leverage to keep Ewan McGregor healthy.

  • Mario crawls into bed wearing overalls he wore during a full day of plumping and killing.

    He also sleeps in children’s bedsheets.

  • True. I assumed they meant the drum since electric guitars tend to accompany drum sets with double bass.

  • Bags / cans of pre-ground is also on the decline in my neck of the woods. The exception being pods. Half of my coffee aisles are pods.

    I feel like most people are in one of two large camps. Whole bean people with grinders or self grinding machines, and pod people.

    The pre-ground bag / can people are an increasingly small slice of the pie.

  • Decreased demand.

    • People who want something simple often use pods.
    • People that buy whole bean are more likely to have grinders at home.
    • In places like the US, especially on the coasts, many people have finally learned what good coffee tastes like, and it usually doesn’t come from pre-ground coffee.

    Pre-ground coffee is also on the decline in my neck of the states. Almost all of the packaged coffee is whole bean because people have grinders.

  • You can make a bass drum very resonant, but most drummers keep a kit bass fairly staccato. Especially with a double bass. Otherwise you’re going to sound like you’re doing a roll on a timpani.
