Ah, I must've skimmed that part. Silly me.
Glad my deduction was correct.

Maybe.
But it is part of CAA regulations: https://www.caa.co.uk/commercial-industry/airlines/dangerous-goods/changes-to-rules-on-the-carriage-of-lithium-cellsbatteries-and-power-banks/

Must be in carry-on and cannot be used in flight.
So, technically the plane was flying illegally.
Fires on planes are NO joke. And lithium batteries love fire, whether starting it themselves or getting hot enough to set other things on fire.

How they discovered it was charging in the hold during flight, I have no idea.
It had to have been a passenger mentioning it.
The cargo hold is completely sealed off from in-flight accessible areas (some older planes have small access hatches that require tools to open).

I'll grant it should be "a self fullfilling prophecy".
But it never has a "z" in it.
That comes from incorrectly thinking it needs similar similar patterns to other verbs.
And this isn't some "simplified English" Vs "English" scenario. It's not even recognised as part of American English.

But as others have said, how much carbon footprint does Bezos yacht have?

This is my conclusion as well.
I am conscientious about what I use/buy/eat, preferring local products even if they cost a bit more. I like walking and public transport is super convenient.

As long as I'm not buying Nestlé (as much as I can, I'm still surprised by finding Nestlé products). Fuck Nestlé

Gamers Nexus is great content.
They constantly seem to do the right thing. Like honest people wanting to report honest news, findings and research in depth to people transparently.

Like Louis Rossmann, tho I prefer Steve & GN

Yeh, it's an http site. So any browsers that require https will block/warn.

But also, holy hell is it obvious once you realise.
Arms up, then swipe down out to the sides, and repeat. Like frantically trying to fly.
As SOON as they are in trouble, it's arms flailing in that pattern. Like, look for white splashing water and assess if it's playing or panic.

A few you can tell who it is gonna be because they flip off their donut. And a few you can tell cause they are trying to swim but are looking up and aren't keeping their mouth above the water (I clicked on one of these to be told "it's fine" only for them to start thrashing and get rescued when I resumed the video)

In the first paragraph:

The images leaked by wxnod show a Corsair Vengeance DDR5 module featuring ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) DRAM chips.

So, consumer suppliers for ram are sourcing Chinese made memory chips, instead of those made in Taiwan (because all the reputable manufacturers of the ram chips have their total manufacturing bought up by AI)

(not sure where to post this...)

I had an idea there might be a TUI lib for typescript. A duckduckgo search came up with an article that described exactly what I wanted!
So of course I immediately searched for this fabled tui lib. A quick search didn't reveal anything, and npm can't seem to find it either! https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=Tui
Navigating directly to the npm package page reveals a 10 year old got repo with no actual code... (https://github.com/basarat/tui)

What the scuff is this world coming to?!
This seems to absolutely align with my experience of using LLMs

(Also accepting suggestions for typescript TUI libs that actually exist!)

How is funding? (programming.dev)

I've been here a while, and I appreciate the community and the defed/hiding list.
I also know programming.dev contributes to upstream Lemmy repos.

I saw another post about another instances funding.
Which reminded me....

Is programming.dev on track for funding?
Need some more donations?
Is there a runway?
