Surely the only languages that are not weird are those specifically designed to be widely spoken?

And no-one wants to speak those!

It keeps the butter hard and useless?

"Who goes there", John Campbell, 1938.

(And I seem to recall more movies that are rehashes of that novella.)

It's German, and you're about as right as anyone trying to say a German word in English can expect to get.

Some of the flickering can be gotten rid of by disabling hardware-acceleration for qtwebengine.

I've got
`export QTWEBENGINEDISABLEGPUTHREAD=1

export QTWEBENGINECHROMIUMFLAGS="--disable-gpu-compositing --num-raster-threads=1 --enable-viewport --main-frame-resizes-are-orientation-changes --disable-composited-antialiasing"`
in .bashrc.

Note that there is still enough flickering left to annoy, and some (appimage?) apps dont seem to register the setting.

I think what's happening in the US today rhymes hard on the fall of the Roman Republic.

And I'm sorry, but I don't think the people won back then.

Hopefully they are enough to disperse Russian anti-aircraft defences.

Comet the cat fell asleep!

Will you kids get your bloody GUIs off my lawn!

Heh. I used to run leafnode as my own, in house, single person server.

I'm quite surprised to find out it's still alive and maintained.

You make larger districts that elect more than one representative each.

Or at least that was how it was done here in Denmark.

That's actually a nice one.

Yeah.

And we can still block entire sites on the web.

The sites the friends with adblockers promote.
The friends who don't notice what they promote.
What unholy bastards the people who own the sites they promote are.

You know, that's a good idea anyway.

I wonder though what that would mean for the copyright?

I'm just guessing, but if the plane suddenly decided it's parked and shut down while it's actually in the air ...
We might want that recording.

"Undocumented"? "health insurance"?

"Undocumented health insurance"!?

"as long as they met eligibility requirements, including income limits and California residency in 2014."
But not documented!?

Are you quite sure you're all right over there?

In Buddhism, yes.

For Hindus, well, it's complicated.

For other people who happen to believe in reincarnation?
That would be anybodys guess, I guess.

Yeah.

Forgetting while searching for a pen is also a thing. (It'll be in my bloody pocket, the one I always carry a pen in!)

So yeah.
