I’m curious, do you recall what hardware issue you had? I’ve been using Fedora-based Aurora on my 13 and 16.

You probably could, but you’d have the taste of citric acid (which is not awful) and baking soda in the water. The Spärkel has the water that activates the reaction in a separate chamber so they don’t wind up in your drink. You need to change that water every four or five times you use it.

I use a “Spärkel” carbonator. Instead of CO2 canisters, it uses packets of citric acid and baking soda to generate CO2 and uses a compressor to infuse the liquid.

Pros:

• You can either use their pre-measured packets if that’s convenient for you, or do what I do and just buy a bulk amount of both the citric acid and baking soda.
• You can carbonate pretty much any liquid. Water, wine, flat soda, mixed drinks, you name it. The sodastream will explode and cause a huge mess if you try to carbonate anything besides water.
• They don’t appear to be Israeli.

Cons:

• Because it uses a compressor, it needs to be plugged in to operate. It’s pretty loud too!
• It takes longer than a sodastream. While a sodastream is almost instant, this will take 1-3 minutes depending on the level of carbonation you desire.

I don’t think we disagree about that at all. It’s just a weird point to be making. I haven’t seen anybody try to say that what he was doing in his capacity as CEO was illegal.

I don’t know why you think people cannot be blamed for the role they choose to have in society. That’s very weird. And if that’s not the point you’re trying to make I’m not sure what it is.

I was answering the question you asked, which was about whether or not he had committed any crimes. And like I said it’s beside the point, which you seem to agree with.

Agreed. It’s touch optimized, not mouse and keyboard. That’s not a criticism!

He was being sued for insider trading for dumping his stock before an investigation went public and lowered its value. So technically, he probably was a criminal. But this is all very much beside the point.

I love Voyager on mobile but feel constrained by it on desktop. (It reminds me of using Gnome, which is not my personal preference.)

Ah, this is so cool. I have been absolutely loving Aurora. Maybe I can make a check point and rebase to this to try it out.

Is there good humor somewhere on Lemmy?

Just like on Reddit, that depends on the moderators of the sub/com. It really couldn’t work any other way. .world seems to often err on the side of being inoffensive for the sake of broader appeal. (And probably also not getting in hot water with their hosting partners, acquaintances, etc.)

If you think about it, the perception of what is “right side up” is arbitrary. It’s like that cliche discussion of qualia and what if what I see as red is different from what you see as red.

It’s hard to imagine Trump riding a bike.

It’s possible! https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/ This was only 2 years ago.

There was a intel driver update that broke some laptop displays. It’s not impossible. https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

Ken has really been making hay of this. Must love being independent!

That “people live here?” section contains Pittsburgh, Buffalo… also, more importantly, Scranton. And Old Forge, the hilariously self described pizza capital of the world.

You can use your domain as your handle Bluesky, I’ve never seen it done on ActivityPub. Is it possible?

Fully explain the joke. Why is it funny?
