Absolutely, updated my post.

Thermaltake built a PSU that splits in two, so you never have to redo cable management again by Mihies in c/hardware@lemmy.world

That happens? Even with better quality PSUs? That's ~~a~~ really stupid. But still, the proposed solution has the same problem, doesn't it? In both cases they can stick with same pinout or not. 🤷

Great solution, will do when I replace the tape.

Which is pretty much useless. Just go with a detachable cables one, reattaching cables should be easy enough to a new unit in case of replacement. No need to retire anything in both cases 🤷

YouTube Premium just got more expensive again: now $16 a month, or $27 for families by Mihies in c/technology@lemmy.world

I'm eyeing peertube, but the problem there is lack of monetization option. Which is a problem with all alternatives in a way or another.

Linux Falls Hard on Steam After Record 5% Milestone by Mihies in c/linux@programming.dev

[-] Mihies@programming.dev 1 points 5 days ago

But still, from my very brief experience, sometimes it requires fiddling or game might just not work or crash here and there. Whereas games on windows just work. More or less. Remember, there are plenty of none tech savvy gamers out there who just want to play games.

If you are a gamer, you don't care, me thinks, sadly so

Consequences for... tech giants?

Credit cards cancelled, Google accounts closed: ICC judges on life under Trump sanctions by Mihies in c/world@lemmy.world

That's why we need an alternative to US credit cards yesterday. And also a spine transplant to politicians.

Microsoft getting nervous about Europe's tech independence by Mihies in c/europe@feddit.org

[-] Mihies@programming.dev 112 points 1 year ago

I for one am ditching Windows and Office which I've been using professionally since Windows 3.0. It's the year of the Linux for me. As per data in US clouds (even hosted in EU), it was never safe.

I'm looking for a front light "for being seen" that can be mounted under K-Edge mount - GoPro adapter. Not looking for something heavier that illuminates the road ahead (thought I might in future). It has to e rechargeable, USB-C preferably and available in EU. Any suggestions? TIA

Well written thoughts on C#12 primary constructors. Sadly they are not really useful. At least for now.

How does breaking affect brakes? (programming.dev)

submitted 2 years ago by Mihies@programming.dev to c/bicycling@lemmy.world

14 comments fedilink

I was always wondering this. Imagine a steep descent. What is better for brake wear - braking constantly or more powerful just at the end? Anybody knows? Goes for both rim and disc brakes

Is Fiido Titan a good bike? (eu.fiido.com)

I'm considering Fiido Titan as e-bike for shopping and short distance commuting. It's hilly where I need it. Any thoughts on bike quality or anything else? From a review on YouTube it seems decent enough. TIA

in what shape is Jonas? (programming.dev)

submitted 2 years ago by Mihies@programming.dev to c/procycling@lemmy.world

4 comments fedilink

Hopeful Jonas recovered after all the injuries, but I somehow doubt it that he'll be at 100% after those injuries without much time to recover. While I'm rooting for PogRog, I fear a repeat of Giro, where Pog dominated and made it boring to watch. Or perhaps Remco will kick in, but then again he was also injured and didn't do well at Dauphine. What's you take?

Eurosport discontinuing streaming (programming.dev)

submitted 2 years ago by Mihies@programming.dev to c/bicycling@lemmy.world

4 comments fedilink

Eurosport started sending e-mails that they are discontinuing streaming (premium) service in favor of HBO MAX. Which is much, like 3x more expensive if you happen to watch only bicycling or some other sports and you don't care about other stuff. Even more odd is that they were sending e-mails like a couple of weeks ago that they were just increasing the price. So, that's it for me watching bicycling, I guess. It's been nice while it lasted, then corporate greed took over.
