I wish these decisions would cause a domino effect around the world.

From the thumbnail, almost thought new Mindustry map is released.

Try RuTracker.

Didn't really notice until now, though it seems some English speaking people used these dashes in their books apparently but I don't think I ever read one of them. It's hilarious to see these cultural differences may cause problems like this. :)

Eh, I meant the whole pyramids but fair enough.

No worries. I tried to look on my English novels first but couldn't find anything like this. I was almost certain that I saw this in one of the Roald Dahls but nope. Well, learned the official name of it too, quotation dash. Thanks.

By the way, Meta (Windows key) + . opens emoji list in KDE.

I definitely wasn't trying to write a list, it was a riddle or a conversation. What I was trying to do is this:

Though, it seems speech dash is not a thing in English. So I understand the confusion.

Apparently there is already a separate symbol for speech dash, which is —. However its keyboard shortcut is obscure and I couldn't remember it later, but Markdown already covered this it seems. Writing --- renders as —, which I'll do from now on, if I don't forget about it next time.

I don't have a screen reader installed so I cannot try it but I can guess how it can screw with it. However I agree with Monkey With A Shell here. It's not realistic for all users to follow semantics, this can only be solved with a better software.

While I use markdown daily, apparently there are still things I don't know about it. Well, I mostly learn them when I need them but still. So, I could use — (speech dash) instead of -, which I assume wouldn't cause a problem with a screen reader. There is no way for me to remember its shortcut on the keyboard, but it seems Markdown already covered this with --- which ends up rendered as —.

Thanks for making me noticing about it, learned something new today.

How is it breaking accessibility?

I see. Then I'm glad I don't use whatever the crap Zuckerberg comes with. Though most people I know uses it which sucks.

Well, that's the reason why I didn't write it like that. I wanted it to look like a dash, just like in novels.

-Why there are pyramids in Egypt?

-Because Brits couldn't moved them to British Museum.

Maybe I'm out of the loop here but I don't know both. For a chat app, I'm mostly satisfied with Signal.

Looks like a Scrin building from Command & Conquer 3.

Thank you for sharing this. It's interesting.

Just looking at the skeleton, we would reconstruct a lot of thing wrong.

Platypus:

Seal:

Elephant:

I don't think I can eat whole watermelon by myself but I'll try.

Wow, this looks nice!

Don't know about its current state but this helped me a lot with moving out to a new place, years ago. The version how I remember wouldn't be so helpful with renovations I think. Still can be used as placeholder though.
