UTF-8 is bloated with retarded emojis. If UTF-8 had no emojis support I would guess it would be better. Why the fuck they even put emojis there? People should have just typed emoticons in text OR send small reactionary images. We have worst of the two by having retarded emojis in UTF-8. Our fonts are bloated with useless shit and if you don't have them there or not have all of them you see fucking squares with numbers. Even if you have these emojis in your font they look different in your font than the sender of the message unless you use the same platform with the same font.

If not for emojis UTF-8 would be great. Because it supports it, there is an expectation that it's available. And because of that people use that. If there was no support the platforms would just implement "stickers" - small images or reactions. I fucking hate these retards that put emojis into UTF-8.

I've just noticed that Discord simply knew what games I played this year and how many times I launched them, even though I wasn't using their game overlay at all.
What are the chances that the developers of Teams and Slack will implement something like this to report to our employers that we're playing games during work hours?

There's always been a "location" setting in Teams where you can pick "home, office #1, #2 etc"

The WiFi setting will notice when you're connected to your home network and set this automatically, or in office #1. For hybrid folks, this is great. You don't have to remember to manually set it since most orgs that offer hybrid require you to inform whether you're in office or at home anyway.

You could always just manually set it to whatever you want if you're being sneaky for some reason.

Also if you don't agree this is useful, that's fine, but my point is people are acting like this is going to give your boss a real-time GPS tracker and he can see if you're working at Starbucks etc. They don't understand wtf it is so they are chimping out.

most people thought simply letting sunlight into a house and allowing 80s to 90s white plastic to bathe in sunlight will turn them yellow after a few years

it was more complicated though

most white plastics contained bromide which stops them from catching fire, there were also a few white plastic types not having bromide in it, and those did not turn yellow..

because bromide was a health hazard (altough getting it into your system by touching plastic is not a likely scenario) they stopped using it in the year 2001 and as a consequence white plastic made since 2001, will not turn yellow

Most chemicals they stopped using are less about the safety of the general public, and more about the safety of factory workers who have to handle it for prolonged periods of time

Basically this, asbestos was banned more because of the factory workers constantly dying than the health risks of the actual asbestos installations, although that obviously aided to getting the ban.
I still remember how when I was a kid and I got an scratch or some other wound, they would put mercromina in the wound, later it was betadine and now it's just a colorless spray.

Kettle lead will fit. Is it manual-specification, nope. Have I done it? For decades. Tho kettle leads tend to be 13A, so it may give it more than it needs in a failure.

For a given value of "don't care". Upper pin there is earth, lower two is neutral/live. They swap +/- 50x a second... Something like that likely fine, not really caring which is which.

>>107527926
no one responded but on the off chance anyone cares about something similar;
ended up just going with an hp elitebook 845 g8. 5650u is more or less on par with 4750u(seems worse on multithreading but better single core and better on battery while having identical APU performance) and while you can get 4750u systems for $200~ they're usually C grade(or worse) wear levels, without charger or random other bullshit. Meanwhile there seems to be a pretty heavy firesale on this specific elitebook SKU across multiple vendors and even "real" vendors like newegg are selling refurbs for $230~ and you're getting it at "excellent" wear rating and likely better battery health. Which is technically important since shit isn't for me but for a kid and it's not cool to force them to deal with random dumbass quirks.
tbdesu if you want a low cost APU machine it seems like it's just a solid option in general. Can't even really price out a set top box at the same performance level as far as I can tell(you could do a bit better if you spend more and get a real GPU but then you're spending more and it's not a laptop). though if you don't need /care about the APU and just want a shitposting machine I probably would've gone with something else.
