It's a MX Master 2S, funnily enough. I still have a over 10 year old working M705 Marathon, on second thought, that I had once bought for my laptop. Had to open it up and bend the mechanism for the left click back into shape once, but no Problems besides.

Uh, what would I be paying for, exactly? I don't really see what Software support a mouse really needs, as long as it doesn't ship buggy. Also, I've been using my (Logitech, funnily) mouse for 6 years now, and if you ignore the few scratches it has gathered, it still works pretty much perfectly.

Also, if their solution for a longer lasting mouse really is repairability, isn't that just their way of saying "we designed our other products to be thrown away"?

I think that assuming that editorial decisions are never influenced by financial interests would be naive, but they're such a big organisation that covers such a breadth of topics that it would also seem foolish to assume a douplicitous intent behind every story. It might just be journalist covering a currently relatively widely discussed topic.

Also, Reuters generally does quite well in remaining relatively neutral in their coverage (though that impression might of course just be based on my biases).

Well, producing illegal drugs seems to be generally rather high risk, high reward. You'd also need a lab, possibly employees, a distribution network, and might encounter potentially rather violent competition, though, so I'd say there might be a few more cost centres other than the raw materials.

I mean, we all knew it was quite easy, but I still think that it's journalistically valuable to go through with it to see, and show how easy it actually is.

Depending on the context, some of those can also be savage insults.

Would you link one? Because the only things I know of are the small coral accelerators that aren't really comparable, and specialised data centre stuff you need to request quotes for to even get a price, from companies that probably aren't much interested in selling one direct to customer.

Yeah, I thought the article was fine, though. Writer is more tech focused, editor seems more business focused, and the editor is usually responsible for the headline.

If my CPU looked like that, I'd be a tad worried.

I mean, they're pretty old planes. I don't expect them to rip out all the equipment and replace it if it still does the job.

It sounds like you don't necessarily like the idea of using a container (I tend to use podman, but most guides are for docker, so that'd probably be easier for you). From my experience, containerising things actually makes things a lot easier, especially in the long run, and getting started is a lot easier than it seems. You can probably find a ready-made guide to set up a plex or jellyfin container on Debian.

Your instance is the address behind the @. So yours is lemmy.world, theirs is, fittingly, yiffit.net.
