  • There is no real need to use captured products though, so OP's question is flawed.

    Any desire to use said products (or not) needs to weigh the pros and cons of the captured products vs alternatives.

  • Legality of removing sim cards from cars in Australia
  • Or if the fuses apply to too broad of a system, the wireless modem should be able to be disconnected.

    Manufacturers like to implement this capability using modules which can be used across their lines of vehicles. Here's an example for a 2017 Silverado, but you'd want to research service manuals / diagrams for the vehicle you're considering buying: https://www.silveradosierra.com/threads/2017-silverado-removed-lte-modem.660593/

  • Garry Newman of Facepunch comments on the Nintendo takedown of Garry's Mod content
  • I'd like to think there is a universe where Nintendo and other companies recognize the value that these add to their brands and proactively issue free licenses to use the IP as a component of how they maintain and enforce rights.

  • Reminder...
  • Don't forget that it's not ok to vote for your candidate because they don't already have enough support, therefore there's no way to ever reach the threshold where it'll be ok to vote for them.

    It's only ok to vote for the neolibs that the billionaires approve after a promise that nothing's really going to change.

    Even in a state that's so blue the Dems have no chance of losing, voting for or writing in someone left of the incumbent will still be deemed a vote for the red team.

  • Linux Inventor Says He Doesn’t Believe in Crypto
  • But what about all the real valuable assets these companies would have these days? Like the multitude of 5 year old PCs, 1990s era Hermann-Miller office furniture, the buildings and land they lease... /s

  • Lemmy is a worse platform for women than Reddit was
  • This is the equivalent of saying that MS Outlook is a community. It's not and neither is Lemmy. Each server has its own rules, and each community on those servers can add rules beyond that.

    Address a specific community or server, there's no central control over the fediverse.

  • I've been making my own Mead for a few months now. I'm absolutely loving it!
  • Yeah, by several years I mean a decade now - how time flies! In the book "The Complete Guide To Making Mead" by Steve Piatz he describes "a predictable and repeatable meadmaking process that can produce drinkable meads after months of aging, rather than years".

    Such information is also available elsewhere online at sites like the meadmakr guide.

    Like with other fermented beverages, some recipes will have potential to transform more with extended aging while others are better fresh.

  • I've been making my own Mead for a few months now. I'm absolutely loving it!
  • The knowledge of how to make good mead has greatly matured in the last several years. With modern techniques there is no need for years of aging! The exception being if you purposely want micro oxidation characteristics.

  • You have to remove the plastic label if you want to recycle this plastic bottle.
  • Didn't forget, that just isn't relevant to the assertion that "plastic can't be recycled". The second use of the plastic doesn't have to be a form which requires the exact same properties as the initial use. The remains of a bottle don't have to be remade into another bottle. There are still nearly infinite possible uses for the plastic.

  • You have to remove the plastic label if you want to recycle this plastic bottle.
  • hardly any plastic is actually recyclable

    Almost every thermoplastic is recyclable easily, though not necessarily profitably (because the new materials are so cheap).

    Recycling that PET bottle into a different usable object would involve cleaning it, cutting it into a shape appropriate for your chosen remanufacturing process (filament or flakes), heating it to melted but not too hot, then forming (fdm, molding, etc.).

    My guess would be that getting a durable graphic printed on PET is more difficult since we don't see that, and adhesive or wrapped labels are almost certainly more expensive than printing would be if it were easy.

    Edit to add: I agree that more responsibility needs to be on the manufacturer, but don't buy into the misinformation that plastic can't be recycled. Make it more expensive to use new plastic than recycled material.

  • Source Who Revealed How Taxes Steal for the Rich Rewarded With Five Years in Prison
  • Biden is owned by the same people as Trump. There's only one party, the party of the Oligarchs.

    Is not the same as

    all democrats and republicans act the same and are equal

    Refusing to see nuance in the difference between the sentiment of these two statements does a disservice to yourself and your cause (unless you're on the side of the billionaires).

    So here you go since you missed the distinction: they can both be (and are) corrupt, without being "the same".

    People like to point out all the ways they're not the same and one team is better than the other. Fine. Those things can all be true, and politicians in both those parties are still corrupt.

    It was only a couple presidents ago that Democrats had the House, Senate, and President. Even then they couldn't get their own members to vote for anti-corruption legislation.

  • Hawaii rules against public carrying of guns without permit citing ‘aloha spirit’
  • Almost every state requires some manner of concealed carry permit

    Are you intentionally untruthful or just ignorant?

    Is your definition of "almost every" LESS THAN HALF?

    These are facts which are easy to look up and here you are spreading misinformation.

  • Anon is a T.A.
  • Sure, committing to a deadline is reasonable if you are included in the decision calculus of scope vs time. Part of that should be to include space for learning as needed to understand anything you'd copy.

    Omitting that is a recipe for low quality garbage and not only will the code suffer, but the organization also will while all the staff fall behind any competitors who make the investment.

  • FDA says 561 deaths tied to recalled Philips sleep apnea machines
  • I'm not sure, but your comment seems to imply an assumption that the foam was designed to be external to the air path and is getting unintentionally sucked in? That's not the case, the foam is literally only inside an "air chamber" that the air directly travels through.
