  • I unironically want soft chips to be a thing. Are they a thing?

  • c/theydidthemath?

  • I mean it's one thing when you bring together a bunch of services that have no interest in being compatible, verses a bunch that are all conforming to the same standard.

  • I think admins choose, but tbh reddit is also pretty algorithmic these days

  • People have been using email since they were five and all modern lives depend on it. If they don't understand federation they will just be confused why they can't see the content and leave. "I didn't understand it and it didn't work" is one of the more commons reasons I've seen on Reddit for failing lemmy

  • As a younger tech person, I definitely don't get a lot about email. It's old and weird and arcane and half it's features that match newer services seem to be built on top of hacks that are enforced through convention alone that will break if I decide I like to format my titles a little differently. Third party clients work, but the main providers, Gmail outlook use some proprietary api to make sure their own works well while everyone else gets stuck with shitty imap. There's endless little incompatibilities. It all just feels like delerict tower held together with miles of duct tape. Oh and I still haven't found a good answer to why calendars are so tied up with email.

  • I mean the physical system

  • Any IDE worth a damn will manage that for you.

    Yeah in like 10% of cases. I'm copying something from a pdf my prof gave. The only ones able fix spacing now are me and God

  • How I feel after removing the system itself (it was all bloat) (I can now live a carefree life, free of computers)

  • Do cows not match their 4 billion year chain of evolution?

  • There's something so surreal about this. Tigers in suits. Tigers killing by severing heads instead of like a tiger (or human) would do it (I'm pretty sure this wouldn't work anyway, the body would twist). Anthropomorphic bodies, but not in a furry way. A brutal murder comic to show a little science fact.

  • Evidence? I'm eating them. What do you think the freezer is for?

  • It's supposed to be similar, not necessarily the same. The idea is something like this

    1. Anakin: something
    2. Padme: but [normal thing] right
    3. Anakin: ..
    4. Padme: but [more basic thing] right??
    5. (implied that not even that)

    The implication here is that not only is the primary purpose not for the blind, but it won't help them at all

    (am I overthinking this?)

  • OP did actually use it correctly tbh, a rare case

  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • That is absolutely not a critical part. One of the primary examples doctorow uses is an online marketplace like Amazon. The missing part is the specific steps the business takes of first trapping consumers, then sellers, and finally raking in that cash.

  • There's still a dedicated community of windows phone enthusiasts. It definitely had something. Unfortunately I never got to try one

  • It's so funny how most of this article is just roundabout way of saying trump is stupid and immature

  • Someone must have written hamlet on a typewriter at some point
