Plastic gotta be this age's lead/quicksilver.

I'm afraid to say that I too have been corrupted by VSCode.

It's widely used, easy to get into, has LOTS of extensions, and works mostly the same across OS'es meaning it's easy to setup by and explain to others.

The two extensions I'm missing most in other IDE/text editors would be the "Remote - SSH" extension by Microsoft, which gives unparalleled integration when working remote, and PlatformIO which, while it can be used independently in its core form, just works way better in VSCode.

Besides this, I'll use Nano for small tasks and vi on embedded devices where Nano is unavailable, though, I'll need a vi cheatsheet for anything more advanced than basic editing.

It's still in beta and audio appears to not always work when streaming. Though, there's recent activity on the related issues, so hopefully it gets out of beta before Discord alienates the regular user.

I tested it a few days ago and besides the audio problem it appears to work very well.

That's weird. I just tested it with a friend (I'm on Endeavour, she's on Win11, the server is VPS with Debian running the newest Synapse and Element-web). Audio works fine both ways with no mic config required, streaming is a little laggy when viewing the screen and stream next to each other, but that's all.

EDIT: No, you're right. Audio within streams seem to fail. I remember Discord having the same problem (hence why I use Vesktop), but if Windows also suffers this shortcoming? I'm pretty sure I remember it working a month ago, so there should be a bug report in Synapse (or element).

Element has audio issues on Linux? Didn't notice it when I tested whether Matrix had what I needed (a month past). I'll see if it screws up if I try again now.

Element already has desktop streaming as an experimental feature. Worked fine last i tested it. Currently planning how to trick my social circle into using it.

I also want to go check out the new TeamSpeak, it's supposed to be a decent Discord alternative - Even though Discord originally replaced it.

Go tell 'em! Why have alternatives if we can just put all our eggs in one, holey, basket?

Found the answer in the parent thread, thank you @Quibblekrust@thelemmy.club:

That’s a mention, not a tag. A tag is a private description you save about a user. Only apps have this fearure.

It's a little weird that they took a well established term (in social media context: tag, id by which to mention a user, also known as 'tagging') and gave it a wholly different meaning (tag: label).

This is what we are talking about, right? Tagging others?

But the other comments seem to be talking about some kind of labelling. Did Lemmy add a new feature that I'm unaware of?

What kind of concussions? Knocked out, bleeding from the head, and forced to stay in bed for a few days, or ran head first into door/wall/table and started crying with a mild headache?

I feel there's a start difference between those two, and the article doesn't appear to specify.

Was about to point this out. I'd just go to one of my IRL friends and have him send me an E-Mail/PM/whatever while i watch him do it.

Ignoring space for a moment, it depends whether you see time as a single - linear - dimension, or as a set of n dimensions.

If time can only exist as a single dimension, then yes, we'd have a paradox.

If time is two-(or more)-dimensional, then you'd just step into a parallel timeline/dimension for every change made, forsaking the old timeline Steins' Gate-style.

Obviously, 2+ dimensional time cannot be proven, so it's just a fun thought experiment. It's not entirely unlike the hypothetical 4th dimension of space - which would leave space-time with 4 dimensions of space and one of time.

Well, I got that, but that's also pretty much the only thing it mentions. What were the results? Was it better then the last generation? How will it change warfare in the future (beyond Gaza)?

I'm gonna ignore the deeply unethical application under which this mysterious and barely named new rocket was tested, since that hardly is relevant to this community and better discussed elsewhere.

EDIT: Sorry, that last paragraph should have an "I think" in there, since I'm no mod and am purely voicing my opinion about low quality and (what I find to be) barely relevant posts in this community.

Hmm, this seems more about economics and politics than technology.

Like, what exactly is the new type of Bar rocket and how does it compare to the older rockets? I see it being mentioned as a replacement for Rumach rockets, but the only details are that it's got some unnamed "guidance mechanism specifically designed for difficult combat environments" and that it's rapid fire (compared to some other unnamed rocket?).

By extension it's unethical to operate any powered vehicle, and by extension it's unethical to use any device requiring (combustible) fuel and/or electricity.

Electric planes exist, they're just not very popular.

It would've been what it would've been...

Had a hunch that might've been you! At least it works one way, which I suppose was what you asked about. :)

Though, would be nice if I also could see my mastadon comments on lemmy. :/

I still cannot see it from lemmy, even when using a webbrowser. :/

I can see that debaashish@mastadon.social has responded to my comment made from mastadon, could you please try to respond to it too?

For clarity, the comment made by ekky@sopuli.xyz (the one you just responded to) was just in case people could not see the comment made by ekky@mastadon.social

Also, the image of my lemmy comment doesn't seem to show on mastadon.

Hmmm, it appears that I can see you on Mastadon, but the comment I made on there doesn't seem to federate back.
