I actually moved from another music service (my old ISPs reskin of some music service) to Spotify and I was also worried about losing my stuff from the other platform. My new ISP recommended Soundiiz to transfer stuff. I was skeptical, but it worked! They have a paid service with things like automatic sync, which I didn't need. That would've also gotten rid of some limits, but I couldn't get payment to work so I used their free tier, which required splitting stuff into 200 item lists because of the free tier limitations, but I could transfer stuff little by little. Soundcloud is one of the services they cover.
Actually dragging the scroll position indicator as in the comic is still cringe though. I fully agree with the usage of clicking to go quickly to where I want to go, but the most useful thing about a scrollbar to me is that I can look at it to know where I am in the page.
In Swedish we don't really say Jay-pegg, because it doesn't flow with the rest of the language. Due to it coming at a time when file extensions were limited to three characters on Windows, most people I know pronounce it JPG (Yee-pear-gear).
Ess Queue Ell. I didn't hear the sequel pronunciation until I was well in my thirties and even then only by people older than me. Then I started working with it myself and heard people younger than me pronouncing it sequel, so now I have no idea. I still hear Ess Queue Ell from the vast majority though.
While I often get the package delivered to a pickup point, many carriers now offer a predetermined safe dropoff point on your property, and I utilize that as much as I can. Even if I didn't, I've always hated the ones that need a signature, as they used to have to come back multiple times because they tried to deliver during work hours when people were (surprise) at work. Luckily most don't require a signature these days (and yes, this is in Europe).
True. However I would think that a system such as this would be used mostly in developing countries where getting all those minerals from your diet is not a given.
Also, this would be distilled water? Or do they have some process to add the necessary minerals afterwards? I didn't see anything about that. Because drinking distilled water isn't exactly good for you.
A (very well used) program I use places files in $HOME. Someone argued for changing to $XDG_CONFIG or at least add that as an option. The dev, being used to the old school way, gave the exact opposite reason: that .config was just an extra level of organization when dotfiles are what the home dir is for. So I'm not sure how successful you would be with that approach.
To be clear, I am clearly on the side of XDG, myself.
I hope we'll see that soon as well. I've been mostly into malty, full-bodied varieties, and recently also sour beers and gose. Those have started to appear in stores, but not reliably. It feels like they're testing the waters, and are cycling through brands quickly, so once you find a favorite, it's already gone. Hopefully it'll stabilize with a decent selection of all types.
I still have trouble understanding this. The last time I saw this discussed, someone said they super heated the coffee, but this articke says it was 180-190 °F, which is still quite a ways below what it would be when you make it (92-96 °C = 197-205 °F). Would coffee normally lose a lot of heat when being poured and this was somehow poured differently so that didn't happen? Because when I make coffee and it's near boiling, I pour it and drink it almost immediately.
I don't know if it's like this where you are, but in Scandinavia if you like beer but don't like IPAs, you're shit out of luck for like the last five years at least. It has completely taken over the beer aisles at like 70 % of the offering. As someone who hates that bitter taste with a passion, the fact that it makes the selection of beers that I enjoy so much smaller, means it's akin to how I imagine pumpkin spice taking over in the US during fall, except it isn't just seasonal.
