@penninger Hm, ja. Mittelwert von den zwei "besseren" nehmen? 🤷

20241119-124652

@penninger LOL. Welcher Wert kommt denn von welchem Gerät?

(Ich rate mal, dass die mit Nachkommastelle von den Profi-Modellen sind?)

@microsoft YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS TO COMPLY

@alarith Gut zu wissen, beim letzten Mal 2021 hab ich die Unterlagen nach ca. 2 Monaten in der Post genau einen Tag vor der Wahl bekommen 😑 (reichte natürlich nicht mehr zum zurückschicken 🙄)

Update: yes, the Xiaomi routers are here, they also have their oddities (*), but once you get installed, it's smooth sailing.

(*) I really don't understand why they put in an 5 GHz AC WiFi and then totally nerfed it with a 100 MBit switch...? Are there extra license fees on something like gigabit Ethernet?

Happened to find this little mirror and absolutely had to turn it into a videogame-related desk decoration 😁

(The cake is a lie.)

@brett P.S. perhaps throw a Chernobyl reference in there for good measure, e.g. something like

POWER OUTAGE TEST IN PROGRESS
EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM
TURBINE 3 SPINNING DOWN

somewhere in the corner 😈

@brett You, sir, deserve an award 👏

@PsyChuan I have a hunch this may relate to some BIOS setting about "storage mode" or some such (with older SATA drives, you'd usually want them in standard AHCI mode and not some proprietary bullshit, I'd assume there is a similar setting for NVME drives).

@badlogic Oh, I always thought you need PD for anything above the standard old 5V/500mA from USB2... good to know 👍

(not that there are lots of PSUs that happily pump out 5V/2A without being asked, I just thought that was out of spec)

@lritter @rygorous Mir ist 2021 exakt das gleiche passiert, und Dänemark ist jetzt wirklich nicht so weit weg 🙄

@badlogic Pretty sure you first need to "unlock" the higher-powered mødes using the PD (Power Delivery) protocol, e.g. with one of these: amazon.de/-/en/gp/aw/d/B0CQNCF

Cleaned the bathroom and accidentally spilled a few drops of bleach on my foot. Was immediately rewarded with a burning sensation on my toes and some nice discoloured spots on my socks. 😑

How anyone could even remotely think about _drinking_ this stuff is beyond me. 🤔

If a device I own doesn't work properly, I usually take that as a challenge to fix it, hack it, repurpose it etc. etc.

But the Nokia Beacon 1 WiFi AP is such an irredeemable piece of junk hardware and software that even I have thrown in the towel. 🤬🤯

Instead, I got myself some cheap Xiaomi routers with support. I'm pretty certain it can't be such a fractal pile of garbage. 🤞

I'd like to congratulate Vladimir Putin on winning the 2024 US election. 😑

I suspect electric car manufacturers are having a secret competition about whose audio engineers can make the most spaceshippy noises. 🚀🛸

Waiting for the TIE Fighter soundpack 🤞

@gunstick ... floor-deep windows without railings, obviously.
