I did not consent to this.

I’m fascinated how similar they are to each other in the lower right panel.

But, but over 3 billion devices run Java!

Our latest operating system will help protect you from everyone except me!

Having a kid can be selfish.

Hell yeah. 128 MB of it, courtesy of my wireless router.

I think you’re just asking when people form their first coherent memories.

This is about 2 to 3 years old.

When you forget your plumbus at home.

They don’t need to run failure studies. That basic characterization work is mostly already done for you. Component vendors (should) publish tables of mean time between failure for the components you’re buying that can be used to get a rough estimation with just a few minutes of effort. Typically it’s indexed by temperature, like for caps, but depends on the part.

Now, does the bottom of the market actually use those tables? I can’t say for sure. I know one high power headlamp company does this for their LED drivers to balance lifetime with output, but I can’t know for sure what every business does.

I didn’t even read the title, haha. That wasn’t meant to be a correction but a suggestion that the frog dude get more fibre. I edited my original comment.

Get More Fiber.

The LED bulb itself is not typically the reason that these fail. There’s also complex regulation circuitry which consists of far more complex components than a single LED. Electrolytic capacitors and driver circuits can have shorter lifetimes than the actual bulb.

With that said, manufacturers know this, so they also tend to overdrive lower cost LEDs to bring the failure rates in line with the rest of the circuit. This sounds like this may be what has happened to you just based on the dimming, but without knowing exactly how they have wired it up, it’s difficult to be sure.

Still a bargain.

Literal shitpost. Definitely meets the requirement.

My god it was so self-important and out of touch.

Even in terms of story, the content is no longer optimized for quality. It’s optimized for watchability which generally refers to the ease of viewing even when you’re not completely paying attention.

They somehow found a way to even further commercialize and mass produce the moving picture.

I think optical media is a dead platform. Hence, there is an apparent lack of interest I think in implementing alternative solutions. I’ve had success with MakeMKV using the docker container approach, but never tried to rip UHD.

The Corpo-inspired future is that you should not get to own any of your media outright. They will decide when you can stream it and to which devices. Piracy is quickly becoming the only viable option if you value your freedom, and it’s a very unfortunate state of things.

This is a gag gift, right?

One Iota of critical thinking would resolve this, but it appears that might be too much to ask.

I appreciate a simple piece of software that does exactly what it’s supposed to do.
