HP sent me a charger to replace the one they misplaced. They sent the cord via UPS and the transformer, the thing that connects to the laptop, via DHL. I got them on different days.

Just send it together. :akko_woozy:

Most Web-savvy folks know that Chrome’s lineage can be traced back to Safari (WebKit, etc.), and be traced further back to KDE’s Konquerer (KHTML, etc.).

But did you know that Apple was also considering Mozilla’s Gecko engine as the basis back when planning development of Safari? KHTML was chosen because the codebase was significantly cleaner than the XPCOM bloat in Gecko. (That name still strikes fear in me to this day. :blobfoxscared: ) Interestingly, the Gecko codebase has been since cleaned up significantly.

That means that, if things had gone differently, Gecko could’ve ended up as the browser engine that rules the world today. :blobfoxgoogly:

thatbrickster,

@tk With the deprecation and removal of XUL, XPCOM will soon be consigned to the past. Gecko shed some weight in Nightly recently, which usually has larger binaries due to experimental code, and I hope it continues to shrink. I find it as fast as Chromium these days, if not faster, on sites like SPW.

>points on licence for flytipping
But it's not a motoring offence? Are the Tories thinking these announcements through?

thatbrickster,

@Rocc Flytipping is dumping litter en masse. It could be a used mattress, it could be smaller unwanted items, but is usually done at a single location. I imagine this 'policy' is for those caught throwing litter from their motor vehicle's windows.

Why post about Trump when you can repost this pigeon instead?

If anyone’s wondering how to set up communication between a rider with a helmet unit (Cardo, etc.) and someone driving a car, it looks like one common path is getting a pair of portable radio units (“walkie-talkies”) and pairing the helmet unit with the one carried by the rider. :blobfoxgoogly:

thatbrickster,

@tk Got that permission slip from the Eff See Sees, I see. I'll soon be registered with Ofcom so we can be QRZ contacts, maybe.

opus 96kbps seems to be good enough for the “listen to music in a quiet room with headphones” use as well :blobcatheadphones:

thatbrickster,

@cell 64kbps is decent as well. Opus was the first codec I got excited for in years just because of its efficiency.

Amazing how anyone can go to a foam party and not expect to get wet. A nontrivial number of people are also severely underdressed.

gotta write The Da Vinci Code just done well :AuraSmug:

thatbrickster,

@kaia An IEM called DaVinci came out recently and is being received well. An omen?

thatbrickster,

@kaia Decent. It has a removable nozzle as Moondrop IEMs tend to develop channel imbalance issues from filter condensation.

thatbrickster,

@naaksit Not enough to cause channel imbalance. Condensation on the nozzle is virtually guaranteed on IEMs with metal shells.

damn, it seems that the fuji camera comes with a usb-c cable but no charger :thinking_cirno:
but looking around it seems like usb-c chargers in general are bad :mokouDead:

thatbrickster,

@grillchen I've found VoltMe and Baseus to be genuine. Only got 30W to get my feet wet, yet to go higher.
