Unfortunately, as much as I like and use firefox on both pc and mobile, chrome and chromium based browsers dominate the market. It doesn’t help that they come pre-installed in both cases.

What about the back of your tv? Or friend’s PC? Or library computer? Or phone charger? Or… Any other Universal device using the Universal Serial Bus…

You may learn YOUR devices, but you may also have to interact with other devices at times and USB didn’t make it easy in the past.

Now, type C is a thing and it helps with plugging it in right the first time, but that one has the HUGE issue with allowing any protocol since USB 1.0 and everyrhing else is optional. So even though you can plug a type C monitor into a type C microphone, nothing will happen, so it’s not stupid proof anymore.

Not talking about my ports. Also ports can be installed the wrong way by the manufacturer. I had a pc case that the front usb ports upside down. But again, usb ports can be installed vertically, in which case it won’t matter if you know which is up or down your usb plug, because now it’s left or right

That may help in the case of a properly installed usb port, but what if the port is upside down? Or what if it’s a vertical port? Is upside left or right?

Right… Except the average person, we can’t have that

Hey, capitalism is only good when it makes the rich richer…

At first yeah, it would be fairly insignificant, but if you ever stood close to these things you know how huge they are… It’s not easy to move them around and I don’t think we’ve found much use for the materials they are made of to recycle them. Also we are supposed to reduce these mountains of waste not use them as a justification to waste even more.

But regardless, I am sure one people will realise how much we already fucked the climate as more and more extreme weather events pop around, we’ll see more focus on renewables or at least carbon neutral sources. I think the most appealing source atm is nuclear which, although not renewable, it has a fairly small CO2 footprint, tiny size, huge and stable output and there are even reactors that can “burn” their waste to further increase their efficiency.

Windmills are a whole lot better than burning coal, but aren’t perfect. Recyling the blades after their 20 year lifespan is a nightmare.

On tiktok too, where else.

Beep boop ah shiet… They done got me this time… runs away leaking oil and steam

Not all bots are bad, the piped bot is nice and there are others too

Same place where you go bankrupt by calling an ambulance… And they consider themselves a developed country lol

This… Also my water already comes at 10C in the summer, even less in the winter… Any colder and you’d have to bite and chew it rather than drink…

It probably takes 15 seconds to put the address into street view and have a look around. Shouldn’t be too dificult to validate the photo. Not sure if there are any privacy policies preventing that, but I doubt it.

Most of what I cited applies to li-ion tech, and not sure what you mean by overblown, lithium fires are a nightmare and lithium doesn’t grow on trees so we will run out of it. And recylcing is not a solution, we’ve seen how that works for much easier to recycle materials. The alternatives such as sodium batteries are even heavier due to lower power density. Imo there should be more research put into battery alternatives such as hydrogen cells.

As for school buses, wires may not be feasable, but the comment I replied to mentioned most buses not just school buses.

Do you not understand that the comment I replied to mentioned most buses not just school buses?

Which is why I said trolleybuses are the next best thing. Not as good as trams, but doesn’t take years to hang some wires on poles…

Will people stop trying to put batteries in everything already? They are heavy, slow to charge, unsustainable, cause fires that can’t be extinguished and are affected by extreame weather(especially cold).

Public transit runs on predefined routes, for that you can setup trams(best option) or trolleybuses(no need for rails). I don’t care that you think the wires look ugly, they are objectively the better solution.

If I were to guess, non-android smart tv. There are very few options if any for these TVs. Since I got my TCL google tv I just put smarttube on it and that was it, no more ads and cast still works. But can’t do that with parents’ old chromecast or lg TVs

You mean a tiling one, right? :|
