Ten pictures of Feddit users reacting to clickbait headlines that will make you say “no, these are all trains. No, I’m complaining as such, I like trains, I just… I thought… No, the headline said something about… reactions, yeah, and ins- actually, hang on, how did you get in here?”

Fedi Punter in Media Lingo Rant Slam: Reaction

Damn!

I’d like to direct you to someone who can help, who can explain what’s funny about it.

But maybe despite their expertise they won’t provide the context you need.

And you’ll still be at a loss.

I was going to comment but I remembered I left the door slightly open.

FWIW the EU’s eCall system doesn’t actually require a GSM module in the car; it’s enough to use a phone connected to the Bluetooth handsfree kit… That said, since most manufacturers already have the module for data-harvesting anyway it’s kind of moot.

In Germany Schuko is deemed non-optimal, but acceptable, for up to 800W.

In the UK our everyday plug is rated for 13A - nearly 3KW. The plug on my phone charger is the same as the one on my tumble dryer and I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bag thing.

Also, st can fuck off. Just in general. It’s harder to write than it’s constituent letters.

WINE is WINE Is Not Emulation. It’s right there in the name in the name.

+1 for Mumble. I set up a load of Android PoC devices with a Mumble server and it’s honestly like having walkie-talkies that work over the Intertubes.

Man, wait until these people hear about the filesystem and kernel.

I like my months fancy.

Even then, Hotmail, Y! Mail and your shitty ISP’s shitty POP mailbox were reading the contents of your emails and selling adverts based on the contents. At least with GMail they gave us the dignity of a nice UI and adequate storage.

Internet things.

Plus VW produced SS equipment at scale in the past, but they don’t like to talk about it.

Thanks. It has occurred to me to add a voice assistant to the phone as well but I’m not sure I’d ever actually use it.

I have a General Post Office model 711 telephone. I installed a microcontroller into it and it’s now the keypad for my home alarm system. It’s also hooked into Home Assistant so I could have it for other things if I wanted.

Fucking Technology Connections.

I imported one and converted it to 230V. Shit is, indeed, fire.

Well, yeah, but so are we. If we’re lucky enough to last so long.

Just goes to show how your prejudices affect your judgement without you realising. I just assumed everyone’s skeleton was a perfect sphere one unit in diameter and mass, at rest, on a perfectly level, frictionless, infinite plane and in a vacuum. Like mine.
