pics@lemmy.world•Yesterday's Blood Moon from Westcliff, CO by Lars Leber PhotographyEnglish
2·3 months agoSo obviously this is an amazing photo, I love it, and I love the fact a human used a camera to take this… but what’s to stop someone just throwing a gradient on top of a stock photo of the moon and calling it a day?
Sorry, typo - I do not use these lol
Zigbee or Thread does this. Example (
nownot that I use this one): https://us.aqara.com/products/led-bulb-t2-gu10

Gotta add a portion for taking a leak after all the drinks, and another for leaking things via Signal.

PC Master Race@lemmy.world•Unpopular Opinion: You should plug your monitor into your iGPU, not your dGPUEnglish
0·6 months agoI’ve had bad luck with Linux automatically using the dGPU even though I have to do this because I’m using a Tesla P4 which doesn’t have display output.

3·8 months agoMy first thought was how ears and noses look red when sunlight shines through them. If blood was blue, wouldn’t they be blue or purple?

memes@lemmy.world•We are way overdue for an open source 2d printerEnglish
1·1 year agoOstensibly, that’s because the app wants Bluetooth and/or WiFi access so it can connect to the printer. Because you can use WiFi and Bluetooth to determine location (based on large crowd sourced databases of these data points that have been geolocated), the OS has to ask for location permission as well, even if you just need to see WiFi and Bluetooth.
That being said, once they have this permission, I have 0 doubt they log the actual location as well…
Mozilla used to run a free service for this, and collected that data in the background using mobile Firefox. A replacement is https://beacondb.net/, which is still building enough location data to become useful. Services like this aren’t nefarious, they’re actually really important in getting a quick GPS lock on mobile. Phone hardware actually have pretty poor GPS receivers, but if you can determine an approximate location prior, you get much better results, especially once supplemented with inertial measurements and snapping to mapped roads.






Have a 2011 Lexus ES350 (gas, V6), and a 2013 Nissan Leaf (EV, ~60 miles of range). Both my wife and I prefer driving the Leaf around town because it’s just plain fun. We keep the Lexus for long trips, but could honestly get by with a rental if we ever needed to.
