  • Happy birthday, person I see everywhere I go on Lemmy (not that it bothers me or anything, I just find it funny how often I come across your posts)

  • This actually reminds me of a similar case that happened quite a few years ago here in Germany; the editors of "Heirat auf den ersten Blick" (literally the same concept as Married at first Sight) clearly made stuff up and edited the footage they had to frame a woman participating as an annoying c-word that's too lazy to do anything while portraying her "husband" as passionate and polite, which he wasn't (at least according to an interview one journalist did with her).

    Stuff like that was VERY common in German reality television of the early 2000s-2010s.

  • My mum used to own an E30 320i convertible and it was just the coolest thing to me growing up. I dreamed of one day inheriting and restoring that car for years.

    In the end, my father sold it to a friend of his (who probably bugged him for years about it)....

    thanks, dad

  • God I love classic VW Beetles... Do you have any pictures of yours to share?

  • I see, there's a native windows shortcut that does the same thing (Windows-Key + Arrow Keys)

  • Just moving single windows or multiple?

  • While I don't really care if it's socially acceptable or not I found it far too awkward to hug other people for the longest time, even close friends. I have opened up to it more in the last few years but I still don't just hug someone without asking their consent first.

    If I like someone, hugging them just feels great.

  • I use KDE Plasma on a regular basis but I'm not aware of that being a feature. Maybe you can do it with virtual desktops, though.

  • There's this suit of useful little programs called Microsoft PowerToys, I always thought it should include a tool that allows you to quickly swap the contents of monitors around in multi-monitor setups.

    e.g. move all open windows from monitor 1 to monitor 2 and vice-versa, while retaining their (approximate) position.

    This may already be a thing, I haven't really checked.

  • I'll see if I can help. Last year was pretty hectic, let's see we actually finish the flag this time^^

  • I'm trying my best but I don't think so. I can be very insensitive without me knowing it.

  • I think it's to make desktop computing more approachable for people because smartphones are so ubiquitous nowadays and used by literally all age groups, so it makes a little bit of sense I guess.

  • Translucent electronics FTW

  • No, but I've been on rotten.com (don't bother clicking the link; the site is long gone) back in the day... similar experience

  • Princess Mononoke.

    I was maybe 10 years old when I first watched it on a pirated DVD copy.

  • Haiku is already pretty great to use in my opinion, despite still being in beta; with the right hardware you could easily daily drive it

  • The text is going to be covered by your hands 99% of the time anyway and besides, *****s have a distinct enough design that the text is gonna be the least of your worries.

    Try using IPA on a spot you normally can't see in case it damages the material, it might help rub off the text. If that doesn't work just get a different case. Decent ones aren't that expensive (versus the device's price).

    Edit: Why does it say "Taiwan"?

  • Paul McCartney died in a car crash in 1966 and was replaced by a Canadian man the British government had kidnapped for that purpose. After extensive facial surgery he took on McCartney's role and no one noticed it.

    Apart from John Lennon who hid cryptic clues to Faul's real identity and the real Paul's fate in the lyrics of famous Beatles songs.

    It's true.
