PC Master Race@lemmy.world•A Lenovo Legion Go BIOS update is bricking handhelds, and out-of-warranty repairs aren't cheapEnglish
7·13 days agoYes that’s standard, as far as I know every x86 PC updates the BIOS this way.

1·19 days agoThe average fit road cyclist can hit 28mph+ if they sprint or are on a slight hill, I never got the concept that bicycles don’t go that fast vs ebikes, they’re often just as fast with a good rider.
Requiring helmets is always good though, plus ebikes shouldn’t be riding with pedestrians at 28mph, most mixed paths either ban ebikes or limit to class 1 at 20mph, often with lower speed limits listed on paths too.

Linux@programming.dev•How do I encrypt my drives and get rid of Windows?English
5·20 days agoI could probably backup most of my important data to a flash drive but I’d rather not
You absolutely need to have working backups in place, otherwise your data is at risk.

2·22 days agoNowhere in the USA though, US federal law states an ebike must have 750W of power or less, and lots of states use the 3 class system as well on top of that.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Spent way too long building a feature rich YouTube Music desktop app for myself, might as well share itEnglish
3·23 days agoI’m always curious about youtube music apps, it seems like there are so many of them everywhere, even f-droid has like 20+ clients listed that all look very similar.
Maybe just a fun app to try making so a lot of people do it?

3·23 days agoE-Bikes are legally limited to 28mph max in the US as Class 3 (20mph on most trails as Class 1), and 15.5mph in the EU.
I think the current laws just need better enforcement, ebikes already have perfectly reasonable speed limits in the US defined by law, and typically aren’t allowed on bike paths or sidewalks in many places. But the enforcement is lacking, and instead states constantly try to create more and more ebike laws that just won’t get enforced either.

13·23 days agoI’ve seen a lot of people think that motorcycle = ebike. They see kids doing wheelies on emotos and clutch their pearls and attack ebikes instead.

7·28 days agoAny ECE 22.06 or DOT rated motorcycle helmet is what you want. Although at 35 mph even a motocross helmet would be far better than a bicycle helmet.
https://www.revzilla.com/ or https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/ are where I’d start.
Cryptomator + some cloud storage is the only thing that comes to mind that’s easy to use and cross-platform.
Either that or rclone + crypt, but that’s a bit more of a hassle.

17·1 month agoYeah I don’t understand why it isn’t, or maybe it is but getting anyone to do anything is impossible.

7·1 month agoIf it’s deep snow and you need to float on top of it they can help. Otherwise if it’s packed down snow then a more standard tire is likely going to get more grip due to the smaller contact patch.
But for ice or icy snow, studded tires always do best.
I would imagine it’s due to windows using more power saving modes that cause the coil whine when active, but if linux solves it then might as well keep using it!

You don’t technically need to back up the PBS server as there’s not much there other than a basic config. As far as the backup data itself, you can mirror to another PBS server or I think it supports S3 for offsite storage.

Technology@lemmy.world•Are you ready for what it takes to stop ghost guns? New laws in California and New York might stop anyone from 3D printing guns — and create entirely new kinds of surveillance.English
2·1 month agoI’ve never heard of 3d printed guns being involved in crimes or even really heard of them much at all.
This is just another way to remove peoples rights.



This really seems like it’s just a way to get DRM onto printers to stop people from printing replacement parts or ‘copyrighted’ materials.
