Nope, I have the same issue, but I have narrowed down the exact behavior.
If you put 2 fingers on the screen in a fullscreen image and slide them even the tiniest millimeter it will go into “pan mode” or so instead of zooming mode. You can no longer zoom until you release your fingers and place them without moving them at all before you pinch to zoom. (I have this happen much more often in practice while using the phone 1 handed on an unstable environment like a tram or train.
Interestingly, you can pan and zoom at the same time if already zoomed in, but on a full image where panning doesn’t do anything, it will lock both actions until you release your fingers.
Hi y’all! This may be a stupid question, but here it goes anyways: I’m thinking of trying to install Linux on a laptop that’s getting slow because of a bloated Windows install. I basically only use it for some internet browsing and 3D modelling (Fusion360) and slicing for my 3D printer (Cura). Is such software available...
Be careful, the interface is out of 2008 and many things work differently than F360. Especially assemblies.
Keep at it look up many videos, it is super powerful. Just not as streamlined as F360
I have made a small form factor computer case as well as a flight stick in it. Definitely good software. Hopefully in the next 2-3 years it will get immensly better also because many people are starting to work on it.
Glassdoor has been here for years and is one of the reference sites to evaluate and review companies, specifically their work conditions in general and salary ranges in particular. Glassdoor also operates a job board, but it doesn’t enjoy the same reputation as it’s company review service....
I have gotten a job through glassdoor. My first actually.
It’s just a job posting site and most tech jobs go through an internal portal anyway.
90% of any “easyapply” services on any job finding platform will do nothing at all
As far as a company reviewer, it is a shitshow. I was looking for a job last year, tons of 2-4 star companies with fully mixed/negative feedback I was browsing again a few weeks ago and a lot of those companies have positions open. Almost every one of them were now “unreviewed” companies with 0 reviews. All of those reviews were purged.
There are no companies (that I have been coming across in my field) in my country now that have below 3.5 stars. A company that I KNOW had 2.5 stars when I was looking for a job 2 years ago. They are a contracting company with a lot of temporary employees, mediocre salary, no progression, etc… All of the sudden it is 4 stars now.
Not to mention that now in the app, clicking the “rating” tab no longer brings up company rating and reviews. It brings up the exact same information page as the company puts as their “about us” with founded, size, headquarters, etc…
Glassdoor is not a company review site anymore. It is a mediocre job posting board.
If mass renewables (excl hydro for obvious reasons) is only gaining traction in the past 20 years and there is a solid goal to phase out fossil fuels and replace them with renewables, every year should be the fossil fuels’ lowest share in the power mix right?
The problem is that the socket will always have the mechanical retainers for all sorts of plugs. This was a problem for example in the shitty Nokia (HMD Global) phones that used the literal cheapest half-sockets it could find. The retaining tabs wore out and the entire phone socket had to be replaced.
But yes, the smaller retaining pins on USB C will wear out the plug first. Apple Lightning cables will wear out at the phone side instead of the plug side. The difference is that Apple requires Lightning certification on all of their cables meaning that shitty out of spec Chinese crap can’t ruin your port as easily. They worked around bad design with legal restrictions. This was also a play by Apple to restrict charging to whatever they want with proprietary protocol.
USB-C is also grounded from the shielding around the connector, that is huge for pushing higher speeds also. Lighting is limited to 2010 speeds, but generally on phones that doesn’t matter.
For your dirt problem, a smaller toothpick works fine and I have used that method many times to get fuzz and dirt out of my port. Don’t use metal. Generally you will be fine with metal because GND and high voltage are both right next to high speed data lines so it will simply pull the data line high or low, pull data lines to each other, or temporarily toggle CC/SBU pins. Not a big deal, but if you go diagonally you can short something that would burn out supporting components, so I would recommend wood or plastic.
Fair point, I have had to do that while transferring music files but most if not almost all Apple users have thouroughly drank the kool-aid of owning nothing and streaming everything from the cloud.
Linux has its own file transfer issues. For example both Thunar and Nautilus had issues around 2014 era where transferring a lot of small files instead of few large ones would completely hang the file browser and transfer. 2 different systems with different distros. I tried every fix in the book, but I had to use rsync for a long while just to transfer small files like music.
Nowadays it seems like that isn’t a problem. Certainly not with dolphin but windows still has that same MTP problem.
I’m fairly new to piracy overall, but I feel like I understand the basics of how to avoid my ISP and such. A family member who’s in college texted me the other day asking how she could pirate textbooks and I realized I’d never thought about it. Any tips for pirating textbooks? Safe sites?
Lol, implying that universities nowadays actually have their required textbooks in the library. Maybe a couple 101 courses (enough for 1 in 200 students) but they have a direct financial incentive to not offer course books in the library.
Been making flour tortillas with the press. Fresh tortillas are amazing. Mine came with a bunch of wax papers to put between the press, but I discovered they did more harm then good. After several attempts I settled on a yeast based flour tortilla recipe which I spice up with mild chili powder. Press to shape and then roll it...
almost no good Mexican food except for brussels. Almost nowhere seems tamales, much less good ones. Very difficult to find corn husks short of stealing them from farms
absolutely no Masa to be found anywhere except specialty, expensive Mexican online shops that come from who knows where
it is difficult to find good milk that isn’t ultra high temp pasturized
nearly impossible to find decent salsa or even the peppers to make it without travelling to go to a specialty shop in brussels
They all are the single most obvious and egregious censors of anyone short of an authoritarian state.
You will be literally instantly permabanned on any of them for saying things like “the evidence seems to be saying the election wasn’t stolen” or “Trump should have handled the vaccine better” or “if trump is actually guilty, he should be prosecuted”.
Your comment will very quickly be deleted and you will be permanently banned. There is no “liberal” place that censors and bans people like conservative forums. If you post a news source from a “wrong” (even a politically neutral and objective news outlet like AP or Reuters reporting on anything political) your post will get removed and you will get banned.
Russia is extremely right wing and they have one of the most aggressive censorships going on right now.
The right is by far the most egregiously censorious in America, and the hard right and hard left censor just as much as each other.
There is a HUGE, and I can’t overstate how massive it is, difference between being downvoted for posting something others deem stupid, and having your comment forcefully removed by the forum “party in power” and being banned from the entire forum.
I am completely unaware of any “liberal” forum that does the latter unless there is a threat of violence, where every. single. conservative forum does the latter constantly, without remorse, and for even the slightest of “infractions” such as questioning the judgement of their idols or god-emperor. Yes, liberal forums will downvote the shit out of people. That is not censorship. Conservatives remove any trace of the comment not by the people, but by the authoritarian “moderators”. That is censorship.
(The exception being lemmygrad which is openly tankies, but they argue hard that they aren’t liberal)
Innefficient, can be catastophic to local environments, not feasible in like 70% of places, but that kind of energy storage is in une in a few places in China amd the US where it is a good option in the local geography.

When anything bad is introduced, 90% of the time the dates and data will point to The Reagan Administration. Truly the downfall of politics, environmentalism, and representation of the citizens in america.
I realized I never took any great pictures of it since this was lower priority, but here is a few that I have that include the bench to give an idea imgur.com/a/KgiqHrC
“Please tell me a time when.this country did terrible things b-b-but only in this certain half of the country’s existence!! Otherwise it’s cheating!!1!”
Conveniently chose a time right where you can ignore the Slavery and the Trail of Tears (% population wise that was just as bad). Not to mention the mass Native American “reeducation” and ripping them away from their families to get a “proper white education”
Every government has done terrible things. The US, China, and Russia are among the worst. We can argue about what is “worse.” But that is completely subjective. China literally just did much of what the US did, but on a larger scale 150 years later and with different technology.
Arguably Russia was the worst of them all, but literally all 3 are bad. America pulled itself out of that era and into corporate indetured servitude era of corporations committing genocides and coups in other countries. Personally I think that China is worse than the US and Russia dwarfs both of them, but just because one is maybe marginally worse doesn’t mean the other wasn’t/isn’t bad.
