‘Modern cars are a privacy nightmare,’ the worst Mozilla’s seen
  • It looks to be based on user ratings (for the sort), and could change dynamically

    Likely a lot of people dog piled on Tesla, then read the others.

    The Tesla one’s main issue is “they grab a lot of data and don’t seem competent protecting it” which is less bad than “we will sell your sexual history if we can grab it from the car, and have a lot of sensors too”

  • Um... has anyone successfully made an Oathbreaker Paladin with the Dark Urge character? Maybe spoilers?
  • You got me curious enough to try to understand the mechanics of what you mean, since I thought if you already were oathbreaker there’s no problem

    I see one post from someone saying the oathbreaker knight can aggro you, depending on which camp you rest at. Most will be fine, but some place the knight close enough to be angry

    Is that your issue?

  • Russia spreading false claims about Qur’an burnings to harm NATO bid, says Sweden
  • I do appreciate seeing more perspectives, but Lemmygrad is open that they don’t intent to push things in good faith.

    I will say that the more socialist (than I’m used to) lemmy.ml has been interesting, but the lemmygrad spots are a silly but dangerous echo chamber

  • Windows 11 wants to leave the screen on all the time with OLED
  • Oh just to be clear, I don’t mean like the monitor has power, I mean windows is wanting to display it’s fancy Lock Screen at all times. I’ll still try that, if it makes a difference this is an Alienware.

  • Windows 11 wants to leave the screen on all the time with OLED

    I have a fresh install of windows 11, though this was an issue with win10 too. I also have an OLED monitor.

    I have to always turn the monitor off entirely when not using it unless I shut down the computer- otherwise, windows will leave the screen on, even when locked (and even if I initially sleep it completely. Maybe my cats bump the mouse in the evening and it wakes up forever)

    With an OLED this contributes to pretty bad burn in. I tried telling it to turn the screen off after one minute, with no effect….

    Any tips? I once setup some scripts to force sleep, but that really doesn’t seem the right solution here.

    I do have windows hello enabled, but even disabling that doesn’t seem to help. It happens both on a lock screen and when I leave it alone on the desktop.

    Thanks for any tips

    Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
  • I think the poster is making a good point though- In this split, google the advertising company can freely contribute to the open source chromium. You need some model that leads the chromium maintainer to reject changes like this.

  • Bulk wallpaper download?
  • I did the “open in” method and that gave me a link in safari.

    I think if I gather all the links at once for one device I can bulk replace the device name of the URL, for a bit better speed.

    But that also means they are on a site, no idea how long that lives. Need to get around to that

  • Bulk wallpaper download?

    I bought the wallpapers, but while I’d like to store them all for later I really don’t want to manually click and download 27+*3 wallpapers (per device)

    Anyone know of a good quick way to grab them all at once?

    Lemmy is so good right now for no particular reason
  • I think it’s partly a selection effect of who bothered to come here. On the positive end, scrolling All is more likely to show things relevant to me I wouldn’t have found.

    On the negative end there are few comments to interact wjth

  • Trying to screw together two halves of a print, and struggling

    I’m printing the Umikot wdt from https://www.printables.com/model/481587-umikot-planetary-gear-spirograph-espresso-wdt-tool

    And all the pieces seem fine, but I can’t seem to screw together the base and upper mech fully.

    Initially I could get it one full turn before it got caught on something. With force, I managed to get it almost fully screwed on but not quite, it feels like there just isn’t enough tolerance.

    I’m tempted to either try printing the base a small bit larger to allow for tolerance, or maybe just combining both parts into one and reprinting it in a single go. I do see a bit of z banding which I suspected might be the problem, but trying to sand at it barely helped.

    Any tips for this? Thanks!

    Needle stuck in tungsten nozzle

    I got myself a tungsten nozzle, thinking it would last forever…

    Today I tried to clean it with a needle (learning after about many suggestions not to do so) and the needle snapped inside the nozzle, quickly fusing to the clog…

    I’ve tried blasting it with a kitchen torch, without success at loosening this thing. Any tips?

    Thanks!
