Just put the device on a separate wifi without internet access, or look at the "child protection" features of your router. Ours can put devices based on their MAC into "access groups" which range from "full access" over "internet from \ to " to "no internet at all".

Easy: Just use the right browser and adblocker, and you basically have premium, but without the ads they still throw at you.

Yes, and yes, that's what maintainence is for.

I'd opt out of that bank if they did this to me.

I don't know the exact numbers but: I frequently used a VAX11/780. Its main components were two enclosures (CPU and Memory), each about a square meter in footprint and somewhere in the range of 1.6m high (IIRC). Both had their power delivered as 3x380V (i.e. European three-phase power) into the power supply part (the lower half to 2/3rds of those blocks) which turned it into rock solid 5V - and a LOAD of heat, which meant the room also needed some extra strong AC.

That thing was an 8MHz cpu with 8MB of RAM.

I'm still waiting to see something real being computed in a quantum computing device instead of just useless "quantum computing benchmarks".

So far, they have only produced the worlds most expensive not-even-hello-world devices.

Freshly certified like Staplerfahrer Klaus?

For those who don't understand the language: This is the parody of an officially sponsored training/education film. The speaker is a well-known voice for a series of traffic safety videos that were shown weekly on TV in the 70s. It starts with the ceremony of handing out the forklift operator certificates, and then follows one of those nwly minted forklift operators, describing things one should not do around or with forklifts.

This so much needs English subtitles...

Yep. It really looks funny. You have those stainless steel tubs in shelves with that black pelt of Aspergillus Niger mold growing, and you know the stuff they make will end up in about each and every convenience food product in the world: Bread, soda, pizza, instant soup, pasta sauce - basically everywhere.

There should be a community for both, but it should not be named "AskLemmy".

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wouldn't the charter not be more appropriate for a "DiscussOnLemmy" group? And leave "AskLemmy" for proper, answerable questions? That mistake was made on reddit before.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

People don’t seem to get that this one is similar to AskReddit in purpose

Which does not make it anny better. Is there no better name for a group that is not about answering questions?

Well, it was way more interesting than the usual stuff here. So much about "thought provoking".
