I love my Pinecil V2. It was cheaper than my 40W entry level Weller station and heats up way faster. I run it off my Anker USB power supply and also my Anker USB power bank. The power bank only outputs 30 or 40 watts though so I might upgrade that in the future. High wattage power banks are expensive though :/

This better be satire.

Boeing’s planes sure have gone downhill since he died…

I just upgraded to a Pixel 7 Pro recently. Previously I had a Galaxy S8 that worked fine for about 7 years. It was really just showing its age. It still holds a charge halfway decently.

Might try installing GrapheneOS on it at some point.

It feels fairly high quality though and I’m hoping I’ll be able to get 7 years out of it like the Galaxy.

Yeah, I rubber stamp it all.

When is it next being acted on? I’d like to actually mail a physical letter explaining my concerns. Maybe they’d like it since they’re dinosaurs.

I love using save states in emulators to win this every time.

The laptop 3080tis have 16 gigs? The desktop ones only got 12.

It’s so dumb that Windows hides file extensions by default. They could just flip a toggle.

I wonder if online multiplayer mods could be made for multiplayer games.

You could build one yourself for a fraction of the price with a trip to your local home improvement store. Even starting without tools, it would be cheaper.

Google ran Youtube at a loss for years to draw everyone in and now that there’s no real competition (yet), are tightening the screws. Very similar to how Walmart will sell stuff at a loss to bankrupt locally owned stores and then raise their prices.

Exploitive megacorporation can pound sand. It wasn’t a bad experience back when it was a single short ad before every video. Now I’ve had a wonderful ad free experience for years because of ad blockers. Why would I downgrade the experience and pay for it?

The 3DS had an ARM9 processor on the board which is what the DS line used so that it could play DS games natively.

The DSi actually has an ARM7 coprocessor (GBA CPU) just like the DS and DS Lite but lacks the physical cartridge slot. You can play GBA games natively on a hacked DSi.

Actually, the 3DS has an ARM7 core too so it can play GBA games natively as well. Either the Nintendo Ambassador titles, or whatever you want if you’ve installed CFW.

Battery technology will be improved. Look at how much better today’s lithium ion batteries are than the NiCad batteries of the 90s.

At some point, we’ll develop something that doesn’t wear out for tens of thousands of charge cycles.

Real guns firing blanks are used in higher budget Hollywood films because it looks more realistic. Many TV shows will use gas blowback airsoft pistols and add muzzle flash in post production but you can tell because there are never spent casings being ejected.

These companies ran these services for years without any of this crap.

Nowadays? You just install it. It’s all plug and play. Mint is great for starters.

Eventually one of these antivax fuckers is going to get rabies from an unvaccinated pet or something and then when they start having symptoms they’ll change their tune and beg to be saved but it’ll be far too late.

I’m still rocking my Galaxy S8! Gonna keep it till the battery is toast.

Got a Sunbeam T-20 at a thrift store a few years ago. Just had to tune it up a little and it’s been working fine. Gets used sometimes 5+ times a day.
