    You’re right. Sorry for getting my post-7pm arithmetic skills on you. However, my point still stands. ‘Close’ is not ‘conforming’ to the standard.

    I don’t know of any modern paste that is electrically conductive

    I wasn’t trying to imply that. When I said “frying the chip” I meant through bad thermal coupling.

    contrary to the old belief, you can’t use too much.

    You’re the first person to suggest that, and frankly, I find that counterintuitive. Everything isolates if it’s thick enough. However I’ll also look into that someday and see if there’s something to it. Thanks again.

    I’m using my old Nokia to this day. And why? Because “suddenly being stopped even after a few feet” wasn’t “difficult to mitigate” for Nokia. In the last 15 years this thing must have survived more than 100 drops, sometimes down a staircase. When I pick up the back cover, the battery and the SIM card, it’s as good as new.

    Uh, not really what planned obsolescence is.

    You’re right, but I couldn’t think of a short term for this. I found ‘bad’ design too broad, and it’s not ‘hostile’ design either.

    I’m German. If the pages are a comfortable size, why does no publisher ever use A5 or A4 paper? To quote an answer I gave to another comment here:

    Let’s check. I grabbed four random German books from my bookshelf. If you’re right, the pages should either be roughly 30cm×21cm (A4) or 15cm×10.5cm [Edit: 21cm × 15cm] (A5).

    Book 1: 18cm × 11.5; book 2: 19cm×12.5cm; book 3: 20.5cm × 12.5cm; book 4: 24cm × 17cm. None of those conform to the standard.

    Another hint that the paper format is weird is that scientific papers on A4 are always either printed in two columns or use the ninths rule for margins, i.e. 1/9 of margin on the inner and upper edges and 2/9 of margin on the outer and bottom edges, essentially throwing away almost half of the page (I’ll admit there are more economic recommendations of 1/11 or 1/13). This is to make the columns narrower to get closer to the target of 60–80 characters per line. Note also that this makes the ‘usable’ area approximately 20cm long, which is much closer to the American’s ‘Legal’ format (216mm).

    almost all consumer printers are for a4.

    I never said A4 wasn’t the standard. I said it’s not a good one.

    books in a4 size actually consist of a3 sheets bound together in the middle. (same with other sized books)

    To be fair, A4 yields unwieldy pages that are too long to comfortably read. And when do you ever need the feature to fold an A4 sheet into A5?

    Thanks for your post. I learned something.

    I do worry about the temperature because I don’t like the smell of burnt dust. Also the coating of my table starts decoloring if my laptop sits on it at peak temperature. All that would be avoidable if the fan controls would just raise the fan speeds sooner.

    Technically, the oath says not to ever perform an abortion.

    I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion.

    Though there may be a loophole, since Hippocrates seems to acknowledge the existence of surgeons (“I will not use the knife, […] but I will give place to such as are craftsmen therein” ), and his oath doesn’t seem to apply to them.

    Is there a way to rewire a wire junction or re-layout a pipe junction?

    I’ve noticed that changes to pipe and wire layouts are instantaneous if no new entities need to be built. For instance, this wire layout: ``` ───── ───── ``` can be changed to this immediately: ``` ──┬── ──┴── ``` Is the reverse also possible somehow? If I wanted to separate the two networks again, I’d deconstruct one of the middle wires and rebuild them in the right orientation, without the junction. But that can’t be the proper way to do it, right?

    I’m looking for a web comic

    The two-panel comic I’m looking for describes how the level of care parents give plummets after the first child. The dialog goes something like this: > Panel 1 > > The child has a thermometer in their mouth. > > [Father:] She has a mild fever. > > [Mother:] To the emergency room! > > > > Panel 2 > > The child twists their head around 180 degrees. > > [Father:] Exorcist? > > [Mother:] She’s fine. Thank you!

    Thanks, Windows, I didn’t want my computer to turn off, anyway

    Meme transcription: Anakin & Padme [Panel 1] Anakin tries selects “Update and shut down” from the Windows start menu. [Panel 2] Padme, labeled as “Windows”, cheerily says: ”You mean ‘Update and restart’, right?” [Panel 3] Anakin takes an annoyed look. [Panel 4] Padme, still cheery, says “I’ll just ‘Update and Restart’.”

    Are there differences in reliability between thumb drives?

    I lost my flash drive and need a new one. Transfer speeds don’t matter too much. I will mainly use it to create bootable media and to transfer a few files between computers and/or phones (no cloud storage for me). Now I’m questioning whether I should get the cheapest drive I can find or if there really is a difference in quality between €8 and €30. What experience did you make?

    Does “to assert” a condition imply establishing it?

    I’m a computer programmer. When we test programs, we often use a function called “assert” to check if the program produces the conditions we expect. For example, this test will fail if the `+` produces an incorrect result: ``` assert( 2 + 3 ).equals(5) ``` Another meaning of “assert” in programming is “check, and take action, if necessary”. For instance, the procedure `assertDataPresent()` may check if the data has already been loaded. If it hasn’t, the function would try to do so, so that in either case the data is present after the procedure is executed. Which of these meanings is the more common one in regular English? Can “assert” even be used in these ways outside programming?

    Wie funktioniert die Sprachauswahl in Lemmy?

    Im [Lemmy User Guide](https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/06-other-features.html?highlight=language#language-tags) steht: > Users can also specify which languages they speak, and will only see content in those languages. Ich habe in meinem Profil die Deutsch, Englisch und Undetermined ausgewählt, sehe aber trotzdem Posts in meinem Feed, die mit Dänisch oder Isländisch getaggt sind. Verstehe ich das Feature falsch oder funktioniert das gerade nicht?
