There are right wing Lemmy instances? Wild… And by the sound of it, Gross.

I typically use my phones for longer than two years. This included both mine and my wife’s devices.

I can only offer you my experience-based evidence, but three magnetic chargers I’ve used have all made my phone significantly hotter then charging it at the equivalent speed with a cable.

This has been true across 6 Android devices. Two from Google. Four from Samsung. However, I will also say that because of this trend, I stopped using wireless chargers about a year and a half ago, so it’s quite possible they might have improved since then.

Magnetic charging loses some energy in the form of heat on both coils.

Technologies like MagSafe lessen the severity of energy loss via ensuring the coils allign, however there is still some energy lost in the form of heat.

This is just a limitation of electromagnetic induction.

It’s a producer of heat placed right next to the battery.

This inefficiency also makes it take more energy to charge your battery. However, I would imagine it’s a nominal amount.

Just once in their life, I wish Nintendo would be cool and understand that this isn’t hurting them. There is no overlap between the sort of people who would buy games for the switch and the sort of people who emulate their games.

Believe it or not, my reply was also in jest.

Furry hate? Them’s fighting words on Lemmy!

That’s it. In my mind, Nintendo is actually worse than Disney.

Strategy games made by paradox interactive typically have political development pop-ups that will tell you about major events and relationship changes between nations.

The news headline from the picture sounds like something straight out of those games.

Okay! But fair warning I’m the opposite of handy

Google Play Music was the last streaming service I actually enjoyed.

There has been enough study on the subject that for jobs that lend themselves to the work from home model, it absolutely does increase productivity.

I do think there should be an option to work in office for those who can’t work from home for personal reasons.

The institution will usually have information about how their supplementary exams work. It will usually be on their curriculum guidelines page of their website.

Because it’s the choice of the president of Loblaws to price fix. :p

It’s my understanding that’s the word rape, even if only alleged is a legal term that can implicate you for defamation up until the person is convicted of the charges.

Hence why media outlets do not use it until an individual is convicted.

I am not a lawyer

I wish, I wish upon a star.

Pug just dropping more fire memes for me.

Things don’t just become a national security asset that easily, though, a long-standing relationship with trust is something incredibly important.

Good points. I guess what I should have more accurately said is that Intel has a long standing working relationship with the American government.

Given that Intel is an asset to national security. I think any sort of buyout would be under intense scrutiny.

I did miss that Qualcomm was also American though, but I still think about it would be treacherous regardless.

I just don’t think, regardless of financial situation, Intel would want to sell even a portion of their business. right now. Everything they’ve communicated to their shareholders and the public at large signals that despite a recent downturn, they really believe they have a strategy for long-term market dominance.

Not to mention the entire national security angle of intel being the only American chip manufacturer.
