This is somewhat dependent on living close enough to a city.
What is a level 3 shield? (from someone who uses a shield for combat quite often)
This will sound a little mundane but, FLASHLIGHTS! Particularly bicycle head lights. The prices before LED's were just STUPID. Hundreds of dollars for small amounts of light (which to be fair was the best you could get at the moment). Which were being used for night mountain biking. But all I needed was to get to and from work safely at night, I didnt have $400 for a headlight that would actually let me see the ground in front of me.
BUT, then came the revolution. China started putting out these LED lights that blew everything else out of the water ... FOR CHEAP! In two years light prices went from $400 to $100 for top of the line lighting. US bike light companies were a year or two out before they could re-tool to match the lumens coming out of china. Mind you, the Chinese lights were not always the most reliable. BUT they were 1/4th the cost of a name brand light. So even if it died, you could still buy ANOTHER one for less than the price of a high end name brand light.
And since the LED revolution, things have not changed much. Prices either go down or stay the same and the lumens increase OR the burn time increases. Its just a win win for customers/consumers.
Why not just read the AP's front page or Reuters? They are about as unbiased as your going to get. There's also BBC and PBS.
No lie though, I miss Reddit.
While this is technically a free game, fanatical wants you to link your steam account. So if you don't feel like giving Fanatical all your steam info, whatever they are asking for, then you cant have it. Oh and they also want you to subscribe to their newsletter. Annoying.
Any chance I can get a TLDR version of how its different than KDE?
Just a FYI, air popping does not have the PFAS that microwave popcorn does. Yay for content, on Lemmy!
Also, I will never eat another bag of microwave popcorn!
Yeah, my mother in her 60s never used computers for work. Has never been great with technology has completely abandoned her laptop for her phone.
I can't even get her to use a tablet. Shes just used to her phone.
I strongly believe that anyone using lemme are not the general population and most likely much more tech savvy than the average person in this world.
It's interesting that older generations like phones and younger generations like phones ... But some of us in the middle are still using computers.
