  • The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is so good at gaming, AMD might give more juice to the Ryzen 7 9700X in order to beat it
  • Company: "we made a new product that is better than our old product!"

    Tech reviewers: collective gasp "unheard of! unprecedented! truly a first for the industry."

  • It was a complete and total shock, I tell you.
  • (I wrote that when groggy, but my thinking was that it's supposed to be read aloud/verbally, so you'd ignore the $ and say the cents. My brain was still asleep.)

    About $3.50

    E: also why do we say "three dollars and fifty cents" when it's clearly "dollar three [and] fifty [cents]". Language weird, return to grunts.

  • Amazon plans to launch discount store in bid to fend off Temu and Shein
  • Great, so we'll have 3 shitty ways to buy things that suck. Oh yeah, I guess we will include ebay too, fine.

    Alternative: didn't we already have this shitty store? it's called Amazon.

  • Ooh, my favorite

  • It was a complete and total shock, I tell you.
  • Sparky, stop eating my teeth! Give it back! GIVE IT BACK!

  • It was a complete and total shock, I tell you.
  • Boss: locks you in the building

    Boss: you live here now. I expect 3x productivity for a $0.50 cent raise with a maximum daily rate of quiet mumbling. Problem solved!

  • Cloudflare is bad. Youre right.
  • there is just one

    Well it's cloudflare, not cloudsflare. Maybe overcasthosting, or sunblockservers...

  • Doctors hate this one simple trick!
  • I don't argue with people. I'm just right all the time.

  • is this employee in the room with us right now?
  • Considering that my desired workplace is "laying in bed for $5k a week", no I can't say that I did. Survival and a safe place to shit dictated that.

  • down with the sickness
  • one late night, cruising with friends and chatting:

    "you know, we should put a minugun on the prius for our getaway vehicle. defensive and economical! nobody will be able to follow us!"

    and the reaction was basically [meme]

  • What was using the internet in the early 2000s like?
  • one player

    That one tank game where you took turns against the computer and/or others players begs to differ :P

  • What was using the internet in the early 2000s like?
  • webmaster

    hard drive failure

    they are not worthy of the title if they just had one disk and no backups. to be so knowledgeable and yet so stupid is a memorable achievement.

  • WWAN unlocking on Spiral Linux

    (my first post on lemmy so I hope I'm doing this right)

    Distro: Spiral Linux (Debian, KDE spin), by recommendation

    System: Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2 (Intel) (distro recommended as I am looking for Debian(-based), + btrfs, snapshots, and fde, included via the gui installer)

    I'm having issues getting ModemManager to unlock my X55 modem. This morning I wiped my drive to install Spiral (KDE), coming from Kubuntu 24.04. While the modem worked after running the proper fcc unlock script in Kubuntu, it is entirely missing in my Spiral install. While I assumed that it would not be that simple, I copied /etc/ModemManager from my Kubuntu live environment to Spiral, ran

    sudo ln -sft /etc/ModemManager/fcc-unlock.d /usr/share/ModemManager/fcc-unlock.available.d/105b:e0ab

    and restarted, but alas that's not enough, so I'm stuck. I have added the network profile + apn to ModemManager (the UI) but of course without the modem unlocked, I can't connect. I'm new to cellular modems in Linux (this was a windows machine until ~6 weeks ago) but I'm otherwise comfortable with the terminal and commands. The modem was working as expected last night in Kubuntu.

    I haven't got the system setup yet (trying this first before going further) so if I botch this, an install is no problem. I'm assuming it's either (or both?) a service, or a missing package that sets up what's needed, but I'm at a loss as to how to proceed.

    I discussed this here https://lemmy.world/comment/10540509 this morning, though I think I got all the important details typed up above. But maybe it could be useful somehow.

    Any suggestions are welcomed :)
