Interesting. Didn’t know it meant that but I can see it now…

I’m taking about what a documentary said “hardtack biscuits” that was popular on the old wooden sailing ships.

They even went through a recipe and tried to recreate them. Holy jaw breakers batman

Some sailor that was like for the love of God can I please have ateast one. Biscuit that isn’t cooked 7 times. Just cook it once please!

Nice try Nokia ngage crew!

I miss Dolby Axon

Iirc they called them bulking agents in the article I rememebered

Reading the labels helps avoid the truly shitty makers. There was a brand of fake parmesan cheese that got outed for having higher than 45% filler in their grated Parmesan cheese. 50% of the filler was the cellulose powder.

The worst offenders are NOT a small percentage. It’s usually easy to notice because it’s so much cheaper than the rest on the shelf but not always

Reminds me of an old co worker who couldn’t fathom why his gf got so horny whenever he was sweaty

I’ve responded to and had Stamets comment on some of my posts. Don’t know anything about Violet

Uhh I traveled to san Fransisco and there was an Uber booth in mall I was getting some necessities for. The booth dude was like hey come earn some money. I’m not from here , no worries that doesn’t matter, ok well I don’t have a car. That’s fine we can get you sorted on that, it’s a great way to make I little extra money.

No dude I’m not interested.

If you change your mind come back

Thanks for sharing

This could be a plan to get rid of Linux by making it illegal

Why don’t presidents fight the war?

Why do they always send the poor?

Hmm thanks, also please massively digress if you would like to.

I interpreted it like 10% is a lot if it’s 10% of a million. That 100,000. So if there’s a million things that crash Firefox that’s a high number.

If Firefox only crashes 10 times a year because it runs that well, 10% or that 1 time it crashes from a bitflip is impressive that the rare bitflip takes up such a high percentage of total crashes because Firefox just doesn’t crash very often.

If your dread is found to be justified that won’t be too surprising, to me, if hardware is getting made less reliable these days thing. Enshitification being the norm, and tech being in everything nowadays

We obviously need more context from Mozilla, but this could be a canary in the mine type situation.

But it would be kind of neat if Firefox became something of a reliable test for bitflipping unintentionally

… I can’t imagine having a browser with hundreds of open tabs. That would tend me of the old days of Netscape Navigator and all the popups and browser add on cancer.

Ahh the nostalgic days of the early Dotcom era. I sometimes miss you geocities

How so?

Didn’t it just highlight how stable the software is?

I assume bitflipping crashes most softwares. If your software is so stable that hardware errors that effect everyone equally(which may be my erroneous assumption I’ll admit) then it is staying that if Firefox is crashing on you, it might be time to run some diagnosis on your hardware.

A litmus test as a browser

That is true, but it doesn’t mean the psychology in the design isn’t preying on people being stupid

Hey thanks for sharing I will go check out the link. (And thank you for the link too!)

Heyo. Does Bose offer 3dprinting files to fix it’s gear? Please convince them to, I have been looking for a brand that is willing to support buy it for life and right to repair.

I am using Sony xm4s and the build quality is terrible on the hinges so I am expecting to have to replace them and Bose is a good brand that I might be interested in if they have something comparable to the ones I’m using in the same ish price range.

I found a 3d printing file to fix my current headset but Im not sure if I can flip it and print the other side now or if that will work.

Anyways if they don’t I would absolutely love it if you could convince them to lol

I’ve had to replace under warranty my xm4s and would never recommend them after my second pair that I cant get replaced now broke in the same way. The hinges are complete crap and I get feedback if it’s too cold on noise cancelling which might have given me hearing loss my right ear.

They sound great but for 500 fucking dollars I don’t recommend them if you want to keep using them daily and have them forever

Wicked cushions had some good replacement parts for xm4s. I bought a couple replacements from them. They had really good customer service when I had a bad clip on one or the earpads too.

I paid 30$CAD 2 years ago for mine. The Sony OEM ones are very comfortable but they compress quickly imo. My ears are a little angled so they are always pinching when the OEM pads compressed too much. The wicked cushions ones I got are a bit taller to start off with and haven’t had a single problem with them compressing so far. Only bought the second set of pads because I wanted a different colour.

I will buy more from them when I get a new headset. Stupid hinges on xm4s
