No they added more crappy pve that isn’t any better than the old pve

Oh wait

Started with wirebase.org because it’s local, but there was a lot of downtime. Switched to lemmy.sdf.org because they’re also local, but are also a really old group that still hosts Usenet stuff. I’ve recently learned that they have never defederated though, and so I’m considering leaving because I don’t believe in giving a platform to obvious disinformation and hate campaigns.

Right wing is the one that actively and openly hurts people, so yeah I do see a difference tbh

So sad it didn’t take off, I would love to have an alternative to Android or iOS right now

That happened a lot in NY too, I think we called them sticker shops

This belongs in !enoughmuskspam@lemmy.world

I’ve been pissed about this for a decade

Not to be that guy, but for at least a few years recently I have had zero issues printing from arch and tons of issues printing from Windows on the same printer lol

Well I do intend to ask them to defederate too

Jfc defeate from both, disgusting

Also, same

Audio still

That sounds like a lot of trouble lol

I highly doubt 20% of light bulbs purchases are going to appliances. Refrigerators have been using LEDs for over a decade now, and even when they weren’t, they lasted significantly longer due to being operated at colder temperatures and for significantly less time. Oven lights also last a long time because they are off almost all of the time.

I think your original questioning of what’s the point was valid, but now with more data presented to you you’re being dismissive and not bothering to research why they did it. Reducing energy consumption still matters even if we were to get to 100% renewable overnight (not possible) because constructing the renewables still costs carbon at the moment. We need to be doing everything we can, and this decision isn’t taking resources away from other decisions, that’s a fallacy.

…Why not both? It makes sense for it to be illegal to sell a device that consumes more than 6x the power of the equivalent and dies significantly more frequently. I searched for statistics and it seems like 20-30% of bulbs sold are incandescent. That means well over half the energy consumption of light bulbs still comes from them. It’s low hanging fruit that can have an almost immediate impact, even if it’s not enough on its own.

Well sure but you could just replace it with an LED bulb…

Edit: missed the word oven. My question is just for fridges

Planned obsolescence is a thing here. The LEDs don’t fail, it’s the power circuitry. Unfortunately the fixture theory doesn’t pan out, as fixtures meant for incandescent bulbs need to be able to dissipate much more heat (about 6 times as much). I’ve been using LED bulbs for 7 years in all sorts of different fixtures and have never had even one burn out on me. Why? I don’t really know. Maybe I turn the lights on less often than other people?

I mean, the treatment he had the first time worked, seems to me like it would make sense to do it again, especially with the advances in the treatment since the first time

Steve Jobs died because he tried homeopathic treatment the second time, so you can take him off that list lol.
