Accounting for taxes and grid fees, between 0.05€ & 1.2€/kWh depending on the season.

Musk legal victory to pause California misinformation, hate speech reporting law. in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

The court’s order for an injunction applies only to the sections relating to defining and reporting data on content violation categories. Social media companies will still be under the remainder of AB 587’s requirements, which include semi-annually creating publicly viewable reports to California on the current terms of service, how automated systems enforce the terms of service, how companies respond to user-reported violations, and what actions the companies take against violators.

Seems like the higher courts ruling is sensible overall.

How do you feel about Kamala Harris prosecuting thousands of people for smoking pot while she did the same thing? in c/[email protected]

It's hypocritical, and I don't like it. With that said, most politicians are hypocrites, which is why I generally dislike politicians.

Have you ever fallen in love in a dream? in c/[email protected]

Happened once a long time ago, incredibly vivid dream and it was quite nice.

What’s the craziest thing you’ve seen someone driving do? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Me and a few other drivers were parked by an unmanned gas station (late night near airport pickup that charged per minute from entry) - anyway, an early '00s renault hatchback swings into the station, pulling a U-turn before three unmarked police vehicles with sirens on surround it.

Officers step out and walk over, having a chat with the driver for a bit. Then, the driver steps out and the other passengers start to come out, one after another. After a little bit, there are twelve adults have exited this little hatchback along with a bunch of luggage. Driver is arrested shortly after.

Never seen anything like it before or after.

eSim or Physical Sim? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Hmm, that's actually a decent point. I've two regular sim slots, so it isn't really an issue for me.

eSim or Physical Sim? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I greatly prefer physical sim, just because I can control it. If I want it out of my phone, it's out, if I want to switch phones, I switch. Easy peasy. I really don't see any advantage to an eSim apart from maybe faster delivery.

Who is your preferred Democratic presidential candidate, and why? (lemmy.world)
 

I'm interested to see what lemmy thinks of this, I honestly haven't kept track of the potential options.

Just don't ask how long it took to get my dGPU working properly :D But thankfully, there were a bunch of helpful folks with tips!

Alternatives to Accubattery (lemmy.world)
 

So I've got a pretty old smartphone and have replaced the battery once already. I've kept track of wear with the help of accubattery, since the phone didn't have that built in.

However, enshittification is encroaching, and I'm now looking for alternatives. What are some decent options?

What makes a (good) monarch? (lemmy.world)
 

As something of a history buff I've read about a fair few Kings and Queens through history. There are many of them, most mediocre, a lot of them objectively bad, however, now and again one stands out from the masses as a good one.

So, what (according to you) makes a good monarch? Feel free to point to a particular person, or event as an example :)

If you live in the EU - you may also be faced with this Meta prompt. Info in text. (lemmy.world)
 

If you, like me, live in the EU, Facebook is now entirely clamping down and forcing free users to make their personal data available for monetization.

Attempting to access any Facebook domain and perhaps also other meta products will redirect you to the following prompt with a choice between either accepting the monetization of your user data, or coughing up a region-dependent monthly subscription fee: base (for me ~10€) + an additional fee (~7€) for each additional facebook or instagram account you have.

Now, the hidden third option. At an initial glance, it seems like there is no other option but to click one of the buttons - however, certain links still work, and grant access to important pieces of functionality through your web browser.

If anyone has information to add regarding Facebook or Instagram, please do share it. I've only (begrudgingly) used the former up until now, but I know many others use Instagram and don't feel like giving a single cent (nor their personal info) to Meta.

  1. https://www.facebook.com/dyi - perhaps most important of all, now is a good time to make a request to download your Facebook data. Don't forget to switch to data for "all time" and "high quality" if you intend to permanently delete your account.

  2. https://www.facebook.com/your_information - here you can find and manage your information, but crucially also access Facebook messenger.

  3. The messenger app: Still hasn't prompted me with anything, though I expect that will change in the not too far future.

Currently my plan is to use messenger to inform any important friends that I intend to leave FB, and where they'll be able to reach me in the future.
