Definitely related. When it's frozen, unblock, it works, completely slathered with enshitt, of course. But interestingly, if I then reblock, the ads are gone but the scrolling still works.

Just had it happen on this post. If I open it in safari, it works correctly, but in the voyager browser ( which I assume is also safari?) it works when it opens, then does not accept any more input - If I give it a really quick scroll when I open it, it will continue scrolling until it stops, but my taps are no longer registering.

Edit - switching to reader mode works normally, switching back it's still frozen. I restarted voyager, no change.

I am not on the TestFlight version. I deleted the app and reinstalled it, it seems to be fixed, so chalk it up to a bit of weirdness. It was fairly consistent, could also have been iOS as I am on the public beta branch there and with the 18.3 release I'm not on beta at the moment since there isn't one.

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated!

New memory fixed it.

Don't see my issue in the comments, hopefully this isn't a duplicate. I'm on iOS, 18.3, this problem has been ongoing for a while tho. When I open a linked page, it opens correctly but then after a short time, perhaps a second or two, the in-app browser locks up. I can open in safari and that works fine.

Aside from that, Apollo refugee here. 👋

 

A few months ago in a reply in this post I mentioned looking for a camera that would record both forward and backward for cycling, and ran across this kickstarter today for exactly that, thought it was worth sharing.

Seems fairly straightforward. The car is ahead of the motorcycle, so the bike should give way. Of course, he won't, and he's in the car's blind spot, so he'll get angry and break the car's passenger side mirror in passing. The car driver having no clue, will get angry in turn, and swerve into the biker, and they'll both crash. The car behind them will catch the whole thing on dashcam and post it on Facebook, asking, "who's at fault here?"

People will blame the guy on the bicycle.

Right, that's what I would expect as well. Bios is updated to current and default reset. Memtest failures were after that - downloaded the full current v11 package from memtest86

Edit and no OC. 5800X, Asus b550m-a (WiFi) board. G.skill ram.

 

I have been trying to get mint to install correctly on my system for the last couple days. After much messing around, trying different drives (new flash drive, new nvme) and stuff, I finally ran memtest and I'm getting lots of errors on both sticks, tested individually. It's 2x16 ddr4 3600; I lowered it to 1600 and still get lots of errors, ordered a new pair.

Here's my question - I have win10 on a separate drive. It boots fine and doesn't seem to have an issue with the ram at all. Is Linux more sensitive to memory problems?

 

I've made the jump to Mint for my gaming PC. I work primarily on Ubuntu systems (cli, no gui) so it was a pretty simple choice. I installed GE proton, which fixed the lobby audio bug in phasmophobia, is there any reason I shouldn't just use that version of proton for all steam games?

One other question, evolution looks pretty solid for mail, any reason I should look elsewhere?

Same exact argument for pot vs booze. Both legal or both not. And I 100% agree with you. On the roads, under 16 is a no-no. Speeding is a no-no. Enforce that and leave the rest of us alone.

Not that in a million years do I see "leave us alone" as an actual possibility.

And I bet they're offsetting the costs by including less rat in the food

 

I'm thinking about picking up a pair of heated gloves; more specifically, heated glove liners. I'd prefer something a little thinner but durable enough to use without gloves over the top of them.

Any recommendations, brands or features to look for? I think some of them have elements up and down each finger, that's what I want, rather than something that just sits on the back of the hand.

Amazon is of course full of highly rated options but we all know what their ratings are worth.

 

"If you asked most owners of these e-bikes about which they’d give up if they had to, they’d probably tell you “take my 21-28 mph speed but leave me my throttle”."

This seems like a bad take. Do most people really only ride on the throttle?

I'll keep my higher speed and lose the throttle, thanks. How about a non-stupid firmware update that locks to 20 if a throttle is connected, and unlocks to 28 if there isn't one?

Take a look at this. The bike doesn't have pedals. But the phrase "mountain bike" is on that page nine times.

Also this. "Some riders are increasing the speed of their Sur Rons to over 80MPH."

Not an ebike. An emotorcycle.

 

Interesting video. Doesn't really get into the second half of their title very much but covers the problem pretty well. People in general are just more angry now. Politics, finances, health care (!!!), climate change, etc etc etc.

From a cyclist's perspective (my own) the fix would be MUCH more protected infrastructure. That only addresses the immediate, physical issue tho - and it would 100% be seen as at the expense of other stressed road users. It does nothing to address the collective mental brokenness we seem to all be sharing.

 
 

I do not live in an Idaho stop state, but I do it regularly.

TL;DR - shitty battery goes FWOOOF

"Hicks explained that Talaria normally only uses a well-respected battery maker known as Greenway Batteries. ... However, due to a “clerical error made by the Talaria team,” some Talaria MX5 electric motorbikes that were shipped to the US included a battery produced by another supplier known as Scud."
