I’ve gone through many pairs of headphones too, I’ve worked from home for years and had a long-distance relationship in a time before smartphones (and before cheap wireless headphones) so Skype+headphones was the solution. Both driving over them with an office chair and accidentally pulling them were real dangers and caused real damage.

Now I just don’t use them anymore, since I have meetings on a company laptop, and the relationship is much closer.

It’s not the same care though. Wireless earbuds come with a box. For regular ones, I’d have to make a suitable box, and also carefully roll the cables every time.

The battery will fail to hold charge and they will become useless. Not the truth for wired headphones.

I don’t know how you use your headphones, but in my case I switched to wireless because every single pair of wired headphones I had would break. Usually the cable, earbuds because they were in my pocket, and the overhead ones I’d drive over with my office chair.

Switched to wireless a couple years ago, no issues since then.

That’s still my favorite EU legislation. The price that is displayed must be equal (or higher, discounts are still allowed) to the price that you pay. Taxes, tips, fees, everything must be included in the price.

Reading the card, explains the card.

Just more proof that it was never about mRNA.

People, not things. America didn’t have man-rated rockets between 2012 and 2020.

Except the time when Rogozin was in charge, at least.

Many conspiracies are true. Probably not the ones about aliens or lizard people, but certainly the ones about oil companies (and oil countries) lying and spreading propaganda.

It is debated whether it was necessary, but the position that it was wrong is self-contradictory.

It assumes that the atomic bombs were not a huge factor in the decision to surrender, as they would surrender anyway due to conventional warfare (US bombing and USSR attacking and removing the best negotiating venue for a conditional surrender). Which might be true. But, at the same time it assumes that the nuclear bombs were somehow worse than the conventional bombing that has been going on. So the atomic bombs had to be both ineffectual and hugely damaging at the same time.

Below 110K. That’s still at least 160K away from room temperature.

It’s available from the physics store, right next to point masses and frictionless pulleys.

She’s vocal against the Catholic Church’s history of child abuse.

Which is very good, but why did she then join another religion with pretty much the same history? Do people really think it’s only the Catholic church?

Edit: I learned that she also joined a Catholic church (but not the Catholic church) for a while. Yes, definitely crazy.

There’s no immediate “big car = bad person” logic that’s valid.

It’s very easy to tell the difference between a big car that’s big for a reason (7 seats for large families, van for a business) and a car that’s big just because (i.e. a large SUV).

I worked and paid for my property too, what makes you think it’s ok to pollute it with your oversized car?

And if Tesla can get fully reliable self driving, it will be a game changer.

But I’m not holding my breath for either.

This really depends on the bully.

Some want attention - they want your reaction, often your overreaction so they can make themselves look like a victim. In these cases, ignoring them for a while will probably make them move on to the next target.

Some want power - they want you to look weak so they can look strong. They like the feeling that you can’t do anything to them. Ignoring these will make them continue. Here you have to fight back.

And yes, usually you don’t know what your bully wants.

I’ve set the registration date on my account back 100 years just to show how easy it is to manipulate Lemmy when you run your own server.

That’s exactly what a vampire that was here 100 years ago would say.

The standalone password managers also allow you to enter credentials into apps on your phone or desktop even if login doesn’t happen in a Web view.

This is possible with in-browser password managers too, at least with Firefox on Android, and I would be really surprised if it weren’t supported by Chrome as well.

I use the Firefox password manager too. It’s easy and convenient and I still haven’t seen any reasonable claim about it being insecure, or any other reason to switch.

Am I missing out on something by not using a separate password manager?
