Thanks! I wish the developers at Meta could afford something similar.

Not the end of the world, but out of the few apps that don’t fit in the ‘pretty much everything’ group, messenger is one of them and I can’t share a good bunch of memes on Lemmy with my friends because of that. I usually end up screenshotting my own screen because of that.

The satellite dish would press against your hip bone.

70 year old management member who came up with the idea of using this metric in the first place:

• “The system shows you haven’t touched your mouse for half an hour.”

• “Yes, I worked out a solution on paper, like back in the old days.”

Tiny correction: it’s the Hungarian equivalent of John American.

And another preeeetty common one is Tóth which is just archaic for Slovakian.

“Jingna Zhang @ cara.app/zemotion @zemotion So freaking speechless right now. Seen many @vercel functions stories but first time experiencing such discrepancy vs request logs like, this is cannot be real??”

Independence day was indeed a great movie. Who would have thought they also use X86 architecture?

Are you… Are you saying EVERYTHING can be hacked with one line of code?

Back then, when I wanted to watch a film, I checked Netflix first, then amazon video. I only reached for other sources if it was unavailable at both. Now there are way too many platforms to pay for, and they are getting way too shitty to pay at all.

There was a time when I was even feeling good going “clean”. Now everything is dirtier than I ever imagined.

I love how nobody said any restrictions and the AI started to solve the classic puzzle already. It could as well be a boat with a cage on it, or at least a leash. EDIT: or a tame/chill wolf. EDIT 2: I’m silly, there isn’t even a wolf. Just embark with the goat ffs

I have a digital clock with thermometer feature and a dedicated thermometer. I’ve been logging the measurements every half an hour for months. The clock is ~1.5-3 degrees off (or the other way around, who knows). Just be aware they are not always super accurate.

Yeah but I’d rather eat the shells plastic free.

I used to recommend the owl to everyone back when the discussions were free to access to anyone. Now that they hid it behind the paywall, there’s no explanation at all why a certain word would be the right (or wrong) answer, how you would use the word in other situations or any other interesting fact. Without the discussions (plus the way they re-structured the Spanish course, setting me back and making it even longer), DL is just a dragged out beginner’s vocabulary. I guess it’s still okay for the very basics, but I don’t really feel I have learnt much in two months.

It’s really competitive of them trying to knock Putin off of the top of the charts.

Ah, good old Bangladesh.

Same here but with several games that don’t run on Linux. For some degree, I even understand the problem, however painful it is: ANY multilayer’s anticheat is a pain in the ass if you have to develop them for two OSs at the same time. Counter Strike: Source was virtually unbannable on Linux for way too long, and I’m still not sure where CS2 is standing now (I stopped back in the CSGO times).

I really don’t know how we could fix this, and no, cutting off THAT many games I like is not an option (some of them even barely have a (good) alternative - think of Rocket League).

Humans are selfish by definition (genes). It would be like rewinding a film and starting over.

The main problem lies within humans’ tendency to put themselves (their family/tribe/culture/etc.) before others’. I know there are fantastic people who don’t, but in the grand scheme of things, humanity will always be too selfish in general. I’d bet that will be our bane (we’re kind of slowly killing ourselves with it already).

A few days ago some random guy got into an argument with the other team. He wrote two sentences, ~5-6 words each. The other guy was complaining that he “wrote a paragraph”. I’m really trying to hold back my inner “these kids nowadays” grandpa but some days are a bit harder.
