A superconductor would completely change how we handle electricity. It’s like a cheat code almost. I’d say most of our current electric infrastructure only exists because of the limitations of our non-superconducting materials.

Oh are we not using the scientifically correct term for giant viruses? Because I think the word Girus is hilarious and want to see it more (don’t you dare curl monkeys paw).

Speaking in strictly technical terms, Henrietta must weigh more than a house by now.

Poor Ontario is about be taught cursive writing again, and in the year 2023 too, where cursive writing has never been less relevant.

They’ve done such amazing work for Linux. Linux gaming wouldn’t be the same without them.

I recommend turning Beehaw into a cooperative where to be a member one has to contribute monthly financially. I understand this is no easy task, and am only sharing my best idea. I really like this place.

A thought I’ve had for a little bit now is what is making sure Beehaw isn’t sold off? I have no doubt in the current intentions of the admins, but as Beehaw grows it can become very valuable for data companies. If this wonderful community thrives, there will be eventually be people and companies making offers to buy everything we’ve built. Is there any plan to ensure Beehaw doesn’t sell out? I’ve been burned before, and I want to ensure that if I’m going to contribute financially that I won’t lose Beehaw.

Looking on the bright side here, this will be good for applications that depend heavily on Chromium such as Steam. It won’t be much good, but it’s something.

Why is that? It’s not like PDF’s are new. If it’s licensing are there non-legal PDF editors that work well?

Must have been a bear attack. No need to look into it.

I fear there will be a huge effort to retrieve the first person to die in space if they’re in orbit, similar to the hunt for ocean gate.

I really appreciate that in MGSV when you move to first person view for iron sight aiming, the controls change to properly feel like a first person shooter. In contrast GTAV and RDR2 also have first person modes, but you still have the character movement of third person and it feels very wonky.

It’s clear lk-99 has created a lot of buzz, but this really puts it into perspective how shady the “discovery” really is. I really really want to be wrong about my doubts though.

I’m subscribed to a few kbin communities so I do technically still use kbin (yay fediverse). But I’m using a Lemmy account because I like my home server as a place to have my account tied to.

I can’t wait for this to arrive in the next version of gnome - version 61.05.

I thought this meant they were developing their own alternative to x11 & Wayland. It’s just how windows are arranged on the desktop.

I’m a huge fan here. My expectations for live action anime adaptations are rock bottom. The bar is to simply not make me cringe the whole time.

That said the casting looks great, especially Luffy.

This is beyond dumb. Such an iconic logo that was already such a huge part of their brand. Not even a logo that needed to be changed. This will cause major confusion for some old people.

I’m so happy we’re transitioning away from using synthetic processes to create so many inferior synthetic compounds, and transitioning towards using synthetic processes to create tried and tested compounds we’ve been using and loving for millennia.

Apple Watch. But I recognize there are better options now, just not for iPhone.
