"With a software death date baked into each model, older versions of these inexpensive computers are set to expire three to six years after their release. Despite having fully functioning hardware, an expired Chromebook will no longer receive the software updates it needs, blocking basic websites and applications from use…
[Pictured] A pile of Chromebooks with expired software sit in a classroom at Montera Middle School in Oakland, Calif"
Also: a typical washing machine cycle uses 33-72 litres of water.
One beef burger takes 3,140 litres of water 😱
A plant based burger uses up to 95% less water.
So if the hotel restaurant served only #vegan plant based food they would make a far greater impact on saving the environment than this greenwashing performative nonsense.
if you post leftist memes without alt text, YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
spend 30 freaking seconds to include your comrades that use screen readers. it's the fastest and easiest part of making the meme.
without this you are no better than any other ableist scum.
our victories must be intersectional, and this includes disabled people!
I seriously hate touch interfaces on appliances. Especially on cooking tops. Please stop it. It's not cool. It's not modern. It's a nuisance. Bring back physical dials and buttons.
@nekothegamer@lea.pet no... did it?
@sirber@retro.pizza I used to use cyberduck before I switched to Linux
Did a #Barbenheimer today. Barbie won for sure.
@MontgomeryGator Love Manjaro. I use Endeavour on my main workstation for better AUR compatibility.

Got it.Definitely going to have to carry on with codecademy to finish learning the fundamentals before I can throw a program together. Native dev is so intimidating compared to webdev; I'm used to being able to get exactly the GUI I want with CSS, and quickly bash out logic with JS. I'm tempted by projects like Tauri, but I feel that I should learn to do things "properly" without relying on web technologies.

But you see, I'm an incredibly simple man! I have very little knowledge about c++, and I was expecting something like setTimeout() to exist so that I could throw something like this together:
```
const timedMessage = (time, message) => {
setTimeout(() => {
console.log(message);
}, time);
}
timedMessage(5000, "Hi!");
```
@sirber@retro.pizza I *have* been tempted, but I'm wary about getting too deep into something owned by google. Do you know if there are QT bindings for it, or what other GUI libraries there are if not?
@binaryphile@fosstodon.org @sirber@retro.pizza I've been thinking about learning Rust instead; what I really want to do is make QT apps, and maybe contribute to KDE and Scribus when I'm up to speed.
Recently thought I'd try and write a simple program in #C++ that alerts the user when a timer is up. I was not ready for this to be so complicated. I miss #javascript already.
@kelbot something like this as an easy to use LORA mesh communicator is the dream.
@jbzfn What did happen with AMP & React? I just remember AMP as a flash in the pan that no one really used, and I'm not a big frameworks guy either, so I'm in the dark.
@marioguzman especially when they know exactly how much text is going to be there. (Although i18n will, of course, complicate this)
"Having big UK meat-eaters cut some... out of their diet would be like taking 8 million cars off the road.
"While it is well established that producing meat has a bigger environmental footprint than plant-based food, it has never been calculated in such detail.
"What makes this assessment different is that it takes real people's diets and is based on the various production methods we have at the moment".
