Furries raise $100,000 for Pittsburgh-area rescue dedicated to senior dogs
  • Hot, yes. Usually quite comfortable though. Though both depend on the design. And there are cooling options out there; small airflow systems for the heads, and cooling vests that yhe other commentor posted a link to.

  • It's OK if you cry
  • Possibly. Some XPS models (~9310) cheaped out on the WiFi chipset, which was really bad at reconnecting after sleep/suspend on Win 10/11 right out off the box.

    Tried a live Linux install and it worked perfectly, so made the switch as there was no Win-only software that I needed.

  • How dumb can you get?
  • Asking a fitbit to set a timer for 2 hours is dumber.

    Apparently it only supports a 1h39m59s at a maximum. So responds saying it can't set that timer. But then offers clickable suggestions for 1h50m and 2h10m ... which gets you the exact same response.

  • Not even the ghost of obsolescence can coerce users onto Windows 11
  • This is the thing with my CPU. It has TPM, it's enabled, and the upgrade tool says that's fine. The installer doesn't make it clear what the issue is, it's like: Congrats, your CPU satisfies these three bullet points, but no, you still can't have Win 11.

  • Superiority brings controversy
  • I had the opposite problem with Windows 11.

    My typical way of shutting down my machine was Alt-D, Show Desktop, then Alt-F4, which brings up a shutdown menu.

    For whatever reason in Win 11, they made this menu unable to trigger updates. So for the first several months of my Win 11 install it was quietly never receiving any updates at all.

  • Revealed: WHO aspartame safety panel linked to alleged Coca-Cola front group
  • I find that Stevia has a vaguely creamy flavour to it. Which works well in some instances, and not in others.

    Aspartame just tastes awful, for me I get this weird sticky/bitter sensation over the roof of my mouth and turn my throat.

    Splenda/Sucralose tastes fine, but has noticeable effects elsewhere, which are a bit TMI.

  • People who haven't gotten into habit of googling stuff in the last 20 years might not get into it at all anymore because of how search engines are gamed with SEO spam tactics nowadays
  • It really winds me up how results that match every search term aren't prioritised any more. I often search for very specific pieces of hardware, and it's been a nightmare since the late 2010s. You now have to pore over each result to check that it's 100% what you're are looking for.

    SEO exacerbates the problem, but I'd say the root cause is the algorithm itself.
