Mile is defined as 5280 feet, isn't it?
I would never called you fat! Maybe slightly overweight 🤣
Funniest imperial unit I see in my work from time to time is pressure in psf. Punds per square foot - very painfull unit.
Not only euros. 95.8% of world population have no idea why you measure length with your body parts.

On top of all this you can't access your account without accepting new ToS. After login web page show full window modal form with one button "confirm" so you can't reject it. I'm sure most of HN readers can handle this minor obstacle ;-) After I asked vultr for access to my account without acceptance of new ToS they wrote me back legal slur suggesting I may host questionable content:
(...) you take the necessary measures to protect minors from accessing harmful material on your website.
(...) requirements apply to you, including removing any infringing content and safeguarding minors.
and threaten me with "law enforcement agencies"
Bravo, bravo...

While I was watching in cinema I thought it was only strange makeup and post-processing. But whole lighting was off. Skin texture was off. I love cinematic art like this: light, composition and color (or lack thereof) It's for me one of most important aspects of both parts. Amazing idea and execution. Hats off...

Hi, some years ago (2019) I purchased landscaping program 'Punch! Deck & Landscape' from punchsoftware.com. I wanted to install it on new computer but on-line registration of license key failed.
Their support said that I need to buy new version and gave me 20% discount.
They seems to not care that purchased software had lifetime license:
"Unfortunately with changes in technologies the registration server that the older programs used were rendered obsolete and thus rendered the older programs (v20 and older) unsupportable. This is why we offer the discounts to customers who have those older programs."
...
"As newer product is released, they replace the older versions, thus the upgrade systems that are in place for customers who have the older products, so they do not have to purchase new product regularly at full retail pricing. "
Is there any way to fight those assholes? The company is located in US.
Were doing what we can. I wouldn't call it propaganda. Please also consider each country GDP. Everyone have limited resources. Poland GDP is 5 times smaller than Germany or Japan and 36 times smaller than US

I had similar problem and want to block all communities from specific instance (lemmygrad to be precise). I used community search by instance name and block them one by one.
It would be great to be able to select all results and block with one close click.
Congratilations to Indian scientists and engineers. To the hell with India PM sucking lavrov cock in Cape Town the same time.
That's exactly why we gave him this name :-) Unfortunately he was killed by car 1.5 year after this photo. It was heavy loss for us and after few years it still makes me emotional looking at his photos. We don't let out cats run free outside anymore.
