The wire from the plug to the device isn’t the same size as that in the wall. So you can have a device cable melt and light on fire without tripping the main fuse. A fuse in the plug prevents this.
Your edit is assuming they’re isn’t a fuse at the central side. Of course there is a main fuse. And it is sized based on the limits of the wires in the wall
Still not nearly as safe. Leaving it up to the home owner to replace the fuse/breaker for each circuit each time a device of a different amp requirement is used is very… naive? The manufacturer of the device shipping the item with the fuse that matches requirement is easier and safer. It may have been born from the ring mains requirement but it’s much safer because of it.
The governance has a secret system.
You can be an enthusiast and still be able to criticise. Apple has changed a lot over the years, and not always for the better.
Says it’s true
Yeah this. Fed up with sensationalist headlines that are far from reality. Us Lemmy users have a better understanding of what’s going on but we shouldn’t be falling for this journalism as it’s nonsense.
Is this the market showing the true worth of a vehicle?
I’ve used Linux for decades but not for desktop usage. I work with Linux every day.
I recently purchased a high end workstation to act as a hypervisor for multiple desktop systems. The plan was to boot into a Linux system and then from there load up one of many desktop OS and work seamlessly within a VM. This has worked well on a Windows host with VMWare Workstation and allows me as a contractor to have separation of configuration between customers.
However I found Linux desktop to have too many glitches. From failed package installs, multiple monitor problems and some special keys being sent to both VM and host. I also found the user interface of some apps to be bad, which I can look past but with the other fundamental issues it added a bad taste to the experience. I really want it to work and I do go back every now and then to try again.
What does TERF mean?
And in both cases, that is bullshit. Just because it happens doesn’t mean we should accept it.
I wish there were more popular Linux memes, the constant flood of anti Windows stuff is getting old. Surely there are some great (or bad) stuff about Linux that is just as meme worthy.
Lemmy demographic feels like mostly Linux users.
Lemmy posters are on vegan level of promoting Linux, and sith level of hate on Windows.
I didn’t realise so many non-Nintendo studios made games for Nintendo. I’m not a console gamer so I wouldn’t know. You should have posted this the first time, but I guess now you understood their point. You’re welcome :)
The was a long sentence. I imagined you gasping for breath at the end.
I think the point is they go for new games instead of remakes. Not that they don’t use the same IP.
This is what I use today. However spammers can easily remove the plus address to send email normally so isn’t quite so effective.
What frustrates me is so many websites strip the ‘+’ from the address, either as inline JavaScript or even worse, after submission.
Back when I used self hosted mail, I wrote an extension that requested a new alias based on the domain of the website.
Like website.net_d5g4j8@mydomain.com
If the site got compromised I would update the random characters.
I still have 800+ aliases left over from this. But after moving to hosted mail I never updated the extension.
I expect they get themselves insured for it
I’m pleasantly surprised the number of replies on Lemmy saying they used this service. It’s nice to know that there are some old people on here, like me :)
