Love the Archie comeback, but fuck arstechnica and their fucked up site format. They literally call themselves the „Art of Technology“ and can’t even get their website properly formatted for mobile. Pathetic.
iOS Safari. The scaling is utterly fucked up. The page displays just half the width on load right off the bat. As one pinches to zoom out to get the full width, the font scales so small, it’s unreadable without zooming back in to half width. The site is peppered with ads to boot to add insult to injury. I don’t even try to hang around, good riddance.
This is a mission critical issue that prevents further adaptation for me. I could never use the calendar meaningfully for business purposes. It is absolute pain in the neck.
It also bugs me that there is no lookup for addresses/locations on calendar invites. For a premium-priced product, one can expect this to be functional. How hard can it be to integrate a call to openstreetmap or similar.
Frankly, the product feels a bit beta-ish for a paid for product.
Settlement money to help stem the decades-long opioid addiction and overdose epidemic is rolling out to small towns and big cities across the U.S., but advocates worry that chunks of it may be used in ways that don’t make a dent in the crisis....
Opioids have been linked to about 800,000 deaths in the U.S. since 1999, including more than 80,000 annually in recent years, with most of those involving illicitly produced fentanyl.
Aside from the argument re the appropriate use case to remedy the societal impacts, which are de facto unquantifiable, the ~$44bn settlements the article refers to juxtaposed with deaths caused by opioids equates to a mere $55000 per casualty.
PEANUTS. The figure is below the US national average income in Q3 2023, i.e $59,384.
The debt to the victims, survivors and humanity is unpayable.
Hey, I’m always searching a home server (already post here lemmy.ml/post/15083947), I was thinking about a Lenovo P500, but maybe the PSU is a bit too special… My budget around $140, will buy used parts and one of the most important thing is the power efficiency (don’t care about the peak wattage but want to stay around...
You got your answers before, you just don’t want to accept them. The relationship between budget and performance expectation still borders delusion.

Looking for recommendations for a racecar, at least 800 horsepower. Needs to hit 60 mph in under 4 seconds. My budget is $2000. Please give recommendations. LOL
Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....

A big-thinking Slovenian startup has created a curious smart security camera that doesn’t just spy on your visitors, but will actively open fire on potential intruders with paintball pellets – or even tear gas rounds – with “ultra high precision.” What could possibly go wrong?
I just retrofitted my basic hand crank mill with a 10mm nut, and drove it with a drill. It's so much faster now, but I do wonder if there's actual properly motorized versions of what I just did.

Several meta-analyses and systematic reviews converge on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and the roll-out of social media globally. Moreover, findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study, the largest long-term study of adolescent brain development in the United States, has found no evidence of drastic changes associated with digital-technology use. Haidt, a social psychologist at New York University, is a gifted storyteller, but his tale is currently one searching for evidence.
