You don’t need to update NVIDIA drivers every time there’s a release. I don’t even do that on my Windows machine. Most driver updates are just tweaks for the latest game, not bug fixes or performance improvements.
And hell, you’re using Linux. Vim updates more often than the graphics driver, what do you expect?
Been running Wayland for 2 years and only issue I had with it was Synergy not working.
Never had an issue with Nvidia on Linux. Yes, you have to use proprietary drivers, but outside of that I’ve been running Linux with Nvidia cards for 20 years.
If you use approximately the same amount of material as in an aluminum can, you’re already at 3x the weight of an aluminum can. Stainless is also far less malleable and much more brittle than aluminum, so the minimum wall thickness is much higher for steel. Aluminum can walls are 0.11m thick, whereas the minimum wall thickness for stainless steel alloys is around 0.50mm thick. Meaning you’d need around 4.5 times as much material, making the stainless steel can weigh at least 10 times as much as the average 15 gram aluminum can. A 12-pack of soda would weigh 4.5 pounds more. Now imagine how much transporting that extra weight costs.
Stainless steel is great for reusable stuff, but it’d be impractical at the same scale as aluminum cans.
Yes, it is actually. You melt the aluminum and skim off any remaining plastic and contaminants from the top of the molten aluminum. It’s a standard, millenniums old process for any metal working.
Problem is the stainless steel you’d need to use in order to get the corrosion resistance and non-reactivity with the contents is prohibitively expensive. Cheap stainless steel alloys offer pretty poor corrosion resistance - see the CyberTruck rusting after being rained on a few times.
Easy solution: only buy drinks in aluminum cans or glass bottles. World is already drowning in microplastic pollution.

Ok, so you were saying you prefer a privacy focused OS but settle for iOS because it’s simpler. Fair point.
As far as data collection goes, Google isn’t selling it either. Apple and Google are both collecting your data to assign you to certain demographics. They then sell ad space, and the people that purchase those ads can select the demographic they want it to go to. It’s not ideal, but it’s certainly better than them selling your actual personal data to third parties.
Right, because Apple doesn’t collect your data, even though it says they do right in the terms of service you agreed to without reading.
3x as much is “marginally better.” What world do you Apple zealots live in?
Why would you only use a privacy focused ROM and not stock Android, when you use a stock iPhone? Do you think that Apple doesn’t collect just as much data on you as Android does? It’s literally in the Apple terms of service. They’ve just conned you into believing their marketing BS.
The DRM and licensing built into HDMI is a massive con either way. Not to mention DP connectors are far more robust than HDMI - I’ve had quite a few HDMI cables and ports just bend/break with minimal use. Fiddled with just as many DP cables and never had a port or connector get loose or break. I’d probably choose DP even if its standards were lagging behind HDMI’s.
Likely, but DP is still superior to even the latest HDMI standards, so I’d choose it over HDMI whenever that’s an option.
And this appears to be a shot of a closed station that appears to be lit by flashlight - my guess is someone urbexing an abandoned station. There are quite a few stations in NYC that have been closed in the past century and aren’t well maintained. Some are still passed by active trains even though there’s no longer a stop there.
I bet you’re fun at parties.
Where is this at? I’ve never seen 440ml or 440ml cans in North America. Canned drinks/beers usually come in 355ml (12 US ounces), 473ml (16oz), 500ml (16.9 oz), or 19.2 US ounces (20 British ounces aka British pint). Other less common sizes are 8oz (236ml / Red Bull) and big beer formats like 24oz and 32oz (just shy of a litre).
404ml is around 13.66 US ounces or 14.2 imperial ounces. 440ml is around 14.7 US ounces or 15.5 imperial ounces.
Usually when you get a measurement that’s not a nice round number like 500 or 750 it means it was probably converted from some other measurement standard. But both measurements seem completely arbitrary for what I assume is an English speaking country.
I looked through some antique measurements but didn’t find anything useful. It seems to be more than half a chungah, but far less than a butt.
Right? You don’t have to join or even engage with Threads if you don’t want to. Super easy to block an instance. But this brings a massive userbase and serious support to Mastodon. I’m a huge FOSS supporter and this is how the Fediverse not only survives, but thrives and grows - buy in from big players. Otherwise, when X/Twitter inevitably dies, another proprietary app takes its place. We just have to hold them accountable and educate users that there are Fedi apps outside Threads.
But also prone to interference whenever the microwave is used. My wireless headphones lose their shit when the microwave kicks on
Ah, I always update the driver through the package manager and it never auto-updates.
