Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How much is your monthly average mobile/phone data usage?English
2·2 days agoThis is the cheapest I could find that wasn’t dodgy in some way.
Previously I was pay as you go at 1p/mb on a different supplier, but that got discontinued.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How much is your monthly average mobile/phone data usage?English
3·2 days agoUK:
£5/m contract for 5GB data. Only run out once when traveling.
Looking back, I normally use about 2gb of data and 30gb of WiFi a month on my phone. Most stuff is done on my PC or laptop.

1·4 days agoI just do miniature painting, so it’s the really tiny detail brushes, keep ruining the tips trying to get into little corners.
Might have a look at the brush restorer.

Ask UK@feddit.uk•Need to start job hunting after 20 years...any tips?English
4·5 days agoThey seem to want both. Application form so they can filter you, then a CV for the interviewer to have Infront of them in the interview(s)
Doing the work to update your CV means you can mostly copy/paste segments into the forms though.
(Knowledge more from tech job hunting - unsure about other industries)

15·5 days agoWhat the consumables are. As a noob, you don’t look at a metal bike cassette and think “that’s going to wear out”. Or at a metal 3d printer nozzle. Or at paint brushes (I keep ruining expensive ones! 😭).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Alternatives to syncthing for syncing files with androidEnglish
1·6 days agoHow is the file sync integration? Even some of the commercial products have shocking implementations.
Does it support shadow copies of files?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Companies with TLDs named after them is the best example of how ridiculously big those companies are.English
7·8 days agoIt’s not that they are gigantic companies, it’s that they are big companies with lots of techies. Other organisations can have them as well.
The BBC (British Broadcasting Company) has it’s own TLD for example. their Mastodon account uses it: https://social.bbc/

London@feddit.uk•How London finally cracked mobile phone coverage on the UndergroundEnglish
8·8 days agoA good read!
Wikipedia link for the leaky cables, because I thought that was interesting.
2021 - annonced then at least, didn’t complete until later I think.
They sell some spare parts, but no longer for my heaset. They even had the parts in stock!
Their consumer business got bought out by a swiss hearing aid company though. Fist thing they did was stop selling spare parts…
Not getting a penny from me if I can avoid it.
One nearish me closed overnight after the announcement of the higher tax. Just decided it wasn’t viable.
Marked as “absolutely fucked” on that map to be fair.
My local is in the “somehow fine” category, but it’s tax before the change is way higher than the tax for the one that closed after the change?
Each colour has a scale too, dark green is heavier than light green
Looks like a standard precipitation map to me. Goes purple->red->yellow–>green->blue

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Tried to carefully install the faucet immediately after gluing and caulking the sinkEnglish
4·13 days agoDepends on the angle of the flow out of the tap. I switched out a tap with an identical looking replacement, that just had a 20 degree or so andle on the plastic spout bit that made a huge difference.
Doesn’t have to be your main copy (those bags are annoying to use). But put a copy in there at least (and keep it up to date with the important ones)
DON’T put the paper in a plastic organiser etc, plastic melts/burns at lower temperature so can ruin them even if the bag would have otherwise been able to protect them.

Technology@lemmy.world•Dell says the quiet part out loud: Consumers don't actually care about AI PCs — "AI probably confuses them more than it helps them"English
111·13 days agoI think part of the idea is: build it and they will come… If 10% of users have NPUs, then apps will find ‘useful’ ways to use them.
Part of it is actually battery life - if you assume that in the life of the laptop it will be doing AI tasks (unlikely currently) an NPU will be wayyyy more efficient than running it on a CPU, or even a GPU.
Mostly though, it’s because it’s an excuse to charge more for the laptop. If all the high end players add NPUs, then customers have no choice but to shell out more. Most customers won’t realise that when they use chat got or copilot one one of these laptops, it’s still not running on their device.
If they are serious passwords, look at putting them in a fireproof bag.
Otherwise, what happens if something happens when you are out?
