vettnerk, to risa in I am Bjorn of Borg. You will play tennis. Resistance is futile.

Hi, Diane!

vettnerk, (edited ) to asklemmy in What do you use Vaseline for?

I use it as anti-seize for RF connectors. It allows cables to connect to antennas without getting stuck, even if left like that for years in maritime environments.

EDIT: Just make sure the vasseline is neutral and not (even slightly) acidic. Otherwise it’ll cause corrosion.

vettnerk, (edited ) to asklemmy in What was the last dumb phone you had before your first smartphone?

Sony Ericsson W810i. Got it in 2007, I think. When it started to die on me in late 2009 i replaced it with an iPhone 3G, which was my first apple phone. It was also my last apple phone as I hated how locked down everything was.

EDIT: I just remembered I had a secondary dumbphone around 2012 or thereabouts. It was a dual SIM nokia of some sort that I used mainly as a backup phone in case my main ran out of battery while I was on the move.

vettnerk, (edited ) to asklemmy in What are some easy ways that you can improve energy efficiency and be more eco-friendly in your rental apartment?

By eating your landlord

vettnerk, to asklemmy in What's a food you forget you like? Then you eat it, and wonder why you don't buy it more often?

My “salads” are technically that due to having cucumber in them. But other than that it’s mostly just cheese which I don’t like with olives.

vettnerk, to movies in Why is everything a sequel, reboot or remake?

As much as I was fed up with “Batman: Hulks Revenge - Infinity Multiverse Edition, a Groot and Thanos Love Story” ten years ago, I can’t deny that they’re popular titles. I just hope that movie makers will shift back to originality at some point.

But for now, due to the shift in how media is consumed, they’re unlikely to go for anything that is not a safe choice, which sadly means that they’ll stick to sequels or renoots of established brands.

vettnerk, to risa in I'm here to get muh boy

vettnerk, (edited ) to linux in Your chosen desktop Linux defaults?

Nothing radical, but I’ve used mplayer as default video player since FreeBSD 4.0, and that’s not changing any time soon. VLC is good and all, I just prefer mplayer.

Oh, and for general purpose storage partitions I use XFS, as it plays nice with beegfs.

vettnerk, to hydrohomies in It tastes... clear

If vacuum had a texture

I found mine here, I’m sure you’ll recognize yours: m.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson-phones-19.php

I may have, I don’t know enough about olives to tell. I usually just buy the biggest jar of castrated green olives that I can find here in scandinavialand.

vettnerk, to memes in I have a customer support request

Correct me if I am wrong, but I was under impression that Porche lost the bid to build Tigers, though? And all the chassis they built for it were instead used for the Ferdinand.
