I guess I could install Ventoy on the raspberry Pi’s SD card, but I prefer it to be bare, since the idea is to keep it simple.

Preflight_Tomato@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.ml•El Salvador Abandons Bitcoin as Legal Tender After Failed Experiment32·4 months agoAn infinitely growing blockchain will inevitably fail by centralizing. Crypto-currencies as they exist today are doomed, but the protocols and tech created now may hopefully inform the design of something that is useful as a currency.
Also, high transaction fees make it useless for small (normal, everyday) amounts, so it can only be used as a store of value. It’s really more analogous to gold or a stock, with the one significant benefit that it’s harder to steal than gold and can’t be
loststolen institutionally.
I’ve been stuck deciding between getting the 2.8k screen and upgrading to the larger 16 laptop. I stopped using my desktop last year entirely and so now I’m trying to figure out whether I should go with the larger laptop since it’s the only thing I use now.
I’m always wondering is how I became an independent thinker. I have a hard time understanding how so many people are so gullible
You may not think this way, but I’ll comment just in case: Don’t fall into the trap of thinking you are too smart to fall for a lie. The smartest people in the world have blind spots, and only the blind think they have none.
Note that established, accepted scientific theories often fall into the “fact” category.
For example the Theory of Gravity.
Preflight_Tomato@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone else feel like tech peaked around 10+ years ago?8·6 months agoI just had to book a flight.
Frontier forces you to download an app now to check in (there is a well hidden option to do it on web, but the page never loads on laptop nor mobile in multiple browsers).
I tried to rent a parking spot, and 2/4 places would not load quotes at all (again web and mobile and multiple browsers). I probably would’ve used one of the two that didn’t load if their sites had worked. Their loss I guess.
I’d just like it to not feel like each interaction I have with technology, and I guess by extension the world, is becoming increasingly adversarial. The tech itself seems to keep getting better though.

edit: or also pull the modem fuse, if it has one

I still choose e-bike because poo, but what a looney idea, I love it.

It already has an account, and nobody who gets that number keeps it for long, it may not even be assigned anymore because of how much spam it probably receives.

Preflight_Tomato@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's an aspect of life that's currently done privately that you think should be communalized?2·7 months agoFYI for those reading this, it is just an image of the unopened mail. They don’t open it for you. You see who it’s from and when it is supposed to arrive.
I’ve noticed that too. Is it related to covid you think? As in it was like this before and now we’re returning to normal progression as people rebuild social connections and lose time. Or is it that the whole dev economy is changing with layoffs and such that devs are leaving the industry altogether? Or something else even?

Preflight_Tomato@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What realistic tech do you think we'll have 10 years from now in 2034?2·9 months agoOoo like higher powered rfid tags! The info could even then be relayed to the driver via the on screen display since theyre now all required.
Preflight_Tomato@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What realistic tech do you think we'll have 10 years from now in 2034?7·9 months agoMany kinds yes, idk enough to say all. Docs take a sample of the cancer DNA, turn that into an mRNA vaccine, inject it into you, and your immune system precisely destroys the cancer.
It seems interesting for many cancers, and lifesaving for already metastasized cancers.
Only downside will be lifelong wage garnishment to The Company.

Preflight_Tomato@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What stupidly easy tech solution do people gloss over all of the time?17·9 months agoAlways get the version of the gadget with replaceable batteries unless you want a brick in 3-10 years. Additionally, prefer 18650, AA, AAA batteries, and keep some rechargeable ones around.

Amazon is responsible for the maintenance costs of the droids. Amazon is not responsible for the healthcare costs of the employees. That’s why.
