I went from an iPhone 7 to an iPhone 13 . I had replaced the battery on the iPhone 7 already, it still was getting updates but physically the charge port started wearing out and the NFC stopped working .

Was a good run, phone was super reliable needed no tweaking to work.

I have also been using iPhones since the iPhone 3G. Long before it existed on Android it was very easy to movie everything from your old phone to the new one, first via iTunes desktop then later via iCloud.

Family sharing for apps and family backups pooled in iCloud is also very convenient.

Likely has more to do with the cost of 1-2million per station vs 250,000 to 500,000 for a typical EV fast charging station

Electrolysis is at least 25% less as efficient than just storing the electricity in battery’s as it produces both oxygen and hydrogen and then you need to spend some more of the power compressing it…. Even before you get to transporting it. Otherwise we would just have electrolytes plants all over already.

I get 550Mbps on 5 ghz (80Mhz wide) with my iPhone 13 and I get 800-850Mbps on an iPad pro on 6Ghz (160Mhz wide). When in the same room as the AP. When not in the same room speeds are a bit all over the map.

This is via the speedtest.net app on a 1Gbit fibre connection.

I am using new U7 Pro Wall APs.

There is no clean, cheap, efficient source of hydrogen. You still need to transport it around burning more fuel to transport it all around.

There are already multiple ways to get clean electricity for BEVs and the supply chain is cleaner.. Plant, grid, car.

Also coal is already a TINY TINY % of US power production, https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/us-energy-facts/ , going to natural gas sourced hydrogen would be a step backward.

When source to consumption is considered BEV is the cleanest option so far.

but there’s evidence that this shift is already happening.

Shift? Dude that article has been debunked already.

BEV is effectively running on coal.

Funny thing is that EVs are still cleaner than ICE even when powered by a Coal grid

Maybe if you live in an apartment or dorm where your gaming PC is in your living room.

I used to use Steam link with my desktop but I find the experience of docking the steam deck way more reliable.

[–] AlternateRoute@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I am surprised there aren't more local multiplayer games on the list. The steam deck is great hooked up to a TV with multiple controllers

More concerning is that so many romantic movies contain an element of cheating.. IE the main characters meet while one or both are seeing someone else and often don't break it off with the other person. In the comedies they are often sneaking around and not getting caught is played for laughs.

 

I was recently trying to get some of the 4 player local games I have to work remotely.. Some have native multiplayer but with limitations (castle crashers only lets two local and two remote players play) bople battle only allows one local player in remote multi player mode.

However for both the above I was able to get remote play together working which basically let me map the remote player to a controller and play the game in local mode.

This however only worked on these games, I THINK they are linux native.. Games that didn't work / provide no controller mapping for remote play together Streets of rage 4, TMNT Redders revenge did not work. These games show support for remote play together in the steam library but I suspect the limitation is on the steam deck?

Anyone else have experience with Remote Play Together on the steam deck? It is nice as the remote party doesn't need a copy of the game and as noted gets around some of the multi player limits of some games.

Any suggestions? Alternatives? Tweaks?

 

Due to variable subject length and these items being part of the same line as the subject they get pushed around a lot which makes them hard to see find when scrolling through history.

Would be nice if these links / scores where at the front of the subject OR the "next line" to be consistent.

lemmy.world is a victim of an XSS attack right now and the hacker simply injected a JavaScript redirection into the sidebar.

It appears the Lemmy backend does not escape HTML in the main sidebar. Not sure if this is also true for community sidebars.

 

When opening a discussion/comment from your profile / history you only see the replies to your comment.

Is there any way to expand all the replies to the topic? I don’t see any way do to that?

 

askacanadian has no posts yet is "trending"

 

Is there a way to search posts within a community?

I see there is a NSFW filter but is there or is it planned to have a text / post filter? I would really love of not see the constant posts about what is going on at Reddit or Twitter anymore. I left, I am done with that.

 

Just curious as this is all fun and open till it scales to expensive. What is the lemmy.ca plan to sustain / fund it self?

Constant donation nagging like Wikipedia?
