Well for starters most residential outlets are rated for 15 amps. You don’t need to run a lot of stuff on that outlet, a vacuum and a space heater is most likely enough for the outlet to overheat. Toss in an extension cord and another appliance and the outlet is going to melt. And since you’re only pulling like 25 amps once the short happens when the live parts touch each other the arc explosion would be spectacular. Since you’re on a 500 amp switch gear breaker with selective coordination set in a way that not only is the outlet done, but the wiring I’m assuming is not ran to the outlet in 600kcm copper, so all the wiring from the outlet to the breaker is also going up in vapor. By the time the breaker trips your house just went through a neat fireworks show and it’s ablaze.

Does anyone know that story of some file or system that do many users rely on in their own infrastructure but it’s maintained by like 1 dude on his free time?

I was gonna say you’re entitled to your opinion but then you mentioned the competition that doesn’t compare.

Respectfully… Fuck me too

After today you’re closer to 2050 than your are to the year 2000.

Yeah but the pipes still have poop smear on them

Thanks lol. I went ahead and just did all the work myself and installed a 14kw system withoit falling for the loan scam.

I’m sorry trump fixed what? There is 0 incentive for any company at all to make a better product. There’s no money in making good products. If you can only sell something once you go out of business. Look up that pan company that made some of the best pots and pans but then had to file for bankruptcy. Second of all stocks are the ONLY thing that matters in our current version of capitalism. Making money for the investors is the sole goal for corporations. If the incentive isn’t to make a good product, but to monopolize the market so there’s no one that can make a product better than yours then the end goal is to own the law that will can prevent you from owning everything. Which is where trump comes in, dismantling laws and regulations that hold corporations accountable. Not only is Trump not fixing anything, he’s actively the guy inside politics changing the rules to benifit corporations and stocks. And the fact that he’s failing this hard is comical.

I’ve thrown so many markers away because the kids just get to them and lose the lids.

Of course after drawing on any surface they can find first.

To an extent, we always had a junk drawer. Over the years it got smaller and more organized. Utinsels have an actual drawer for them all. So no pizza cutter in our junk drawer anymore. Almost everything in your picture has a spot for us.

Here’s our junk drawer now.

Oh you know who did?

Do you even know what those words mean? Why do you even want a legal hearing when this was a clear case murder. He’ll be convicted for murder. Because that’s what happened. And the law is rigid in that.

I think you meant you want to see no sentencing. That’s up to the courts. But there’s no way he isn’t guilty of murder. The only reason we’re all up in arms saying “good” is because the person who was murdered may have quite frankly deserved it.

I guess. I never had nor will ever pay for premium, but isn’t there premium content? How’s that any different than paying for patreon videos of content creators? YouTube just consolidated it.

I guess. And you might be right. But the end goal of enshittifying everything is going to bottle out into unusable tech and the death of innovation.

Lol why are you getting down voted? Jeez lemmy users are sensitive about paying for an entertainment service.

I really don’t think they understand this… If an ad starts playing on YouTube I just turn it off and see why my ad blocker isn’t working. If it doesn’t work I simply don’t watch the video. I had no desire to switch to Firefox because Chrome was just working for me, but then it didn’t work. There’s no way in hell I’m sitting here with my adhd addled brain, with my 4 year old phone in my hands watching for 30 seconds why I need a brand new acura.

The only time I’ve ever willingly watched an ad was tiktok. Because they know I can simply swipe and skip it, but sometimes the sponsored content is creative and entertaining.

The last panel is from a comical arrest of a gentleman.

I don’t think any country in the world has been in the position America is in. Similar sure, but not the bastion of wealth and power, with a stubborn population. There would be a civil war before they remove democracy. It’s more likely that elections will be a front to the fascist seats of power. The elections aren’t going away. What they mean is a different story.

You can argue American elections have meant nothing either.

Yes. Yes there will be. Even if everyone who voted for Trump is OK with it if you think the rest of America is just going to be ok with dismantling elections you’re being irrational.
