7·6 months agoI think you can nap. As evidence I present the scene where Rita and Larry go to the morgue to identify Phil’s body. This suggests that the time loop continues the day beyond Phil-specific events (like death, and naps)

1·7 months agoI know that without a screen they don’t count as handheld, but the T1000-E is a more ‘mainstream’ user-friendly option.
Using the app is easier than navigating small screens with small controls. The cards are small, light, and inconspicuous, with decent battery life, at about the same price as this
The main tradeoffs would be having to use a phone, and likely shorter range

2·7 months agoI’m pretty I bought it only a year ago, but I’m not 100% sure where and can’t find the receipt

2·7 months agoThanks. It seems wasteful to throw it away but I’m working on my loss aversion 😉 and technically the blanket is still a blanket, just less warm

I’ll take care, I definitely don’t want to burn the house down

5·7 months agoAwesome thanks for that. I think it’s worth doing once, it it breaks again I’ll take the hint, and I’ll also make sure I plug it in outside on an extension

7·7 months agoThanks, as a learning exercise I am willing to have one good go before I turn the electronics into waste, but if they blow again that may be the end of it
I’ve been given an opportunity to ask ‘genuineparts’ where I should buy parts 😉 (I’m in Australia)

4·7 months agoThanks, if that is the pad below the resistor I assume that component is also damaged and would likely replace it as well. I’ll do some searching and reading on the capacitor, is a U1 chip something generic or will it have markings to indicate specs?

31·7 months agoThanks. Can you help identify what the components are? It would be interesting to at least have an idea what the failure mode was. It appears burnt but there was no smoke and no apparent smell until I opened the case days later

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is that random movie that you watched multiple times throughout your childhood only because your family happened to own it's DVD (or VHS) ?English
3·7 months agoWe didn’t have a video player, but our friends had a Looney Tunes VHS that included rabbit season / duck season, the Bugs Bunny opera, left turn at Albuquerque, and Duck Dodgers
We must have watched it over 100 times
The headline is not only bait but also wrong
At best, they could claim that AI-generated images are fueled by societal associations of negative attributes with obesity
And surely the use of the word phobia in an academic context should be more rigorous

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?English
8·8 months agoThe reason I would call reddit social media is that I don’t agree with any of those rules
The closest I would agree with is 2, and not based on lack of anonymity but instead on persistence of identity, and that being core to the experience
I was part of subreddits where users knew each other as distinct personalities, and could converse across different threads across time, and occasionally IRL from various meetups
When a website doesn’t have a lively and persistent ‘local’ community (maybe geographic, maybe subject etc) it can’t really be social



Very Kantian of you

This is an interesting piece on how Kantian ethics can be applied to your actions, but there are pitfalls in applying your ethical evaluations to the actions of others
