Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•Why $700 could be a "death sentence" for the Steam Machine
2·20 days agoThe steam deck is nice, but you have to throttle a lot of games performance. And that’s on an already very small screen. I have played the crap out of my steam deck, but there are some games that just don’t work super well. The difference is just the power of the components, primarily CPU and GPU, but also RAM and SSD speeds. It would expect the mini gaming PC to be more expensive than the handheld, if the expectation is that you can play any large AAA game at (basically) full specs with good frame rate. You can’t do that for cheap. I also don’t expect the price point to be a problem

2·20 days agoWhat is life if you aren’t spending some of it on stuff you enjoy doing? Adults should be able to spend large amounts of money on stuff that is primarily a toy if they enjoy that toy. I get it if you’re saying you literally cannot afford to eat and buy that expensive of a toy, but for most people saving their pennies for long enough warrants buying an expensive toy. It’s also fine if you prefer spending your money on experiences rather than things, but saying it’s an invalid purchase because it’s a toy is pretty silly.

10·22 days agoThe primary cause of lead’s toxicity is its interference with a variety of enzymes because it binds to sulfhydryl groups found on many enzymes.[22] Part of lead’s toxicity results from its ability to mimic other metals that take part in biological processes … Among the essential metals that lead displaces in this way are calcium, iron, and zinc.[186]
The brain is the organ most sensitive to lead exposure.[77] Lead can pass through the endothelial cells at the blood brain barrier because it can substitute for calcium ions and be taken up by calcium-ATPase pumps.[203]
The targeting of NMDA receptors is thought to be one of the main causes for lead’s toxicity to neurons.[202]
The half-life of lead in bone has been estimated as years to decades, and bone can introduce lead into the bloodstream long after the initial exposure is gone.[182][183][184] The half-life of lead in the blood in men is about 40 days, but it may be longer in children and pregnant women, whose bones are undergoing remodeling, which allows the lead to be continuously re-introduced into the bloodstream.[26]

Stainless steel is generally considered to be biologically inert. However, during cooking, small amounts of nickel and chromium leach out of new stainless steel cookware into highly acidic food.[115] Nickel can contribute to cancer risks—particularly lung cancer and nasal cancer.[116][117] However, no connection between stainless steel cookware and cancer has been established.

Lead is very different in its toxicity. Chromium is not nearly as toxic, and in fact trivalent chromium is an essebtial nutrient:
Trivalent chromium is a trace mineral that is essential to human nutrition

Of course wikipedia isn’t an official source, but almost all statement’s link to reliable sources

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK the four rules of firearm safety
21·1 month agoThen it’s the kids problem
I’m running it and it screams vibe coded. The maintainer worked for an AI company before this as well, so it wouldn’t surprise me if it is mostly AI written. It’s buggy and clunky, despitr having a clean UI. The features are random and incomplete. The PDF Form creator is a joke. The signature portion doesn’t work. The “simple” mode really should be default. The website has big company bames in it saying “used by peoplr working at” which is just a bullshit and unimportant thing to say to put big companies logos on the site. Also those same logos aren’t currently removed from the simple mode probably because the AI didn’t consider that when it added the feature.
I know it’s a new project, so I am hoping it gets better. I have wanted a tool exactly like this for so long. Unfortunate that it’s a result of AI, but beggars can’t be choosers

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The way my fuck-ass pharmacist makes up the remaining pills in my bastarding prescriptionEnglish
31·2 months agoI agree it’s a valid complaint, as in it’s expected to be complained about. It’s not so valid to expect the pharmacy to actually change anything. There are a million and one solutions to their problem. If it’s just the sharp edges, they can clip those off with some rounded nail clippers. If they have trouble getting them out of the pack, there are any number of tools/solutions to get the pill out to make it easier.
I think this post is valid as mildly infuriating, since it’s not that big of a deal. But calling it an infuriating puzzle is pretty wild. Idk what puzzles you are doing

Lmao. Imagine getting such a late start on embedded systems.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: you can stop Microsoft users from sending 'reactions' to your email by adding a "x-ms-reactions: disallow" header
6·4 months agoI will say, it’s practical for everyone using the same system. Sometimes it’s nice to acknowledge an email without having to respond to it
And when I had my school account, they’d send out phishing alerts of what to look out for. Those emails would be spammed with crying laughing emojis

yet. If AI can do anything well, I think it should be writing code, given the formulaic nature of code. We are NOT there yet. But it will one day, no doubt.
