I tried a while ago to get SC2 working, but didn’t have luck. Are there any tricks to it these days?

I love the little aside about the rust. Some journalists still have fun.

Good god, there are still people who believe in phrenology!

Jesus, my friend cycles between mechanical efficiency and sexual orientations like a clown in a stripper juggling show. Now I know why!

That was a strange path my mind took as I read the title, thinking it was a satire piece about competitors trying to sneak in cheats… Like, the “Anti-Cheat Police Department” couldn’t be anything but a laughingstock.

For the AC/DC part, I usually try to tell people it’s like a water wheel that’s been inserted into the hose of water. DC is it spinning one way constantly, while AC is it spinning back and forth. The wheel is turning pretty much the whole time (again, we can try to not be super specific with the way we do phases with AC), and thus you can use it to do stuff on AC or DC.

I mean, as someone else pointed out in a comment here, they literally have it in the terms that they can track your sexual activity…

Maybe your phone, but the insurance company’s app lives on a relative’s phone, and it can determine the same things mentioned in the article.

I think a carburetor is a bit much. There are plenty of fuel injected machines that were built before insane spying became the new normal.

Somewhere on Lemmy in the last two months. They had a link to a review about it. Sorry, there was a reason I hedged with “I think.”

I’m not sure if this is right, but it’s what’s on the back of the tv. It’s a sceptre version number QGTV83AC. There is also a UPC sticker on one side that has U650CV-UMRD8QGTV83AC.

While it’s good advice to never intentionally connect TV to internet, some devices bypass you if they can. I think it was samsung that would connect to any other samsung product and through them to the internet, even if the other product was in your neighbor’s living room.

I have a sceptre, I love it. I got it on a black friday sale before covid, and it still works well. Some people have said theirs went crappy within a year or two, so check models and reviews that seem legitimate to figure out which ones are crappy.

“IRB? What’s that?”
