  • The guy who peed in the can was scared to lose his job

    It was a fucked up thing he did, but it did give all of you a really funny story to share. Except for the piss-drinker, he's not sharing that with anyone if he can help it.

  • Ironically, everyone hated it because they thought it would cause fragmentation.

  • it's all bespoke

    Unfortunately, that's by design. Mir was the display server that tried to combat that exact problem, and we burned it at the stake.

  • As if the original comic wasn't reductive and unnecessarily dismissive enough, you've somehow made it worse. Let people make things if they think they have a shot at it, please.

  • Gnome 3 implemented 4 as a core feature and got so much flack from users for it. So they made it trigger less and less until they effectively removed it. I still see it happen, but very rarely.

  • Don't forget GenX, they cut their teeth on DOS and other such horrors.

  • They're going after the anger dollar, that's a good dollar. We've done research.

  • fzf makes ctrl-r really nice so you use it more often, especially if you use tmux as well.

  • I've been car A and still had car D behind me beep at me. We hate car D.

  • Oh, that's nice, TIL. But still, there are other projects that do just directly download from GitHub when building, buildroot for example.

  • Compiling any larger go application would hit this limit almost immediately. For example, podman is written in go and has around 70 dependencies, or about 200 when including transitive dependencies. Not all the depends are hosted on GitHub, but the vast majority are. That means that with a limit of 60 request per hour it would take you 3 hours to build podman on a new machine.

    Suggestion: Add ability to get the real un-proxied image link

    Image links on lemmy used to be nice and short(ish), but now that they get proxied they look pretty ugly - especially if an image gets proxied through multiple instances, which is something I've seen quite a few times. I assume this is simply because someone copied a proxied link on one instance and posted it on another.

    Would it be possible to add an option to un-proxy the link before copying it? Not sure if this would work better as a global setting or another context menu item, but I would find it very useful.

    Example:

    Normal: https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/288a95d3-b040-475c-9b8c-6fe4fe14fcac.png

    Ugly: [https://lemmy.zip/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Feurope.pub%2Fapi%2Fv3%2Fimage_proxy%3Furl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Flemmy.ml%252Fpictrs%252Fimage%252F288a95d3-b040-475c-9b8c-6fe4fe14fcac.png](https://lemmy.zip/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Feurope.pub%2Fapi%2Fv3%2Fimage_proxy%3Furl%3Dhttps%253A%252

  • Not to mention, if you have the model you can print it even long after the product support has ended. No company will support a product they stopped making half a decade ago, but you'll still be able to print parts the same way.

  • Their slogan for the election was "Alice für Deutschland", meaning Alice for Germany with Alice being Alice Weidel, the party co-chairman and chancellor candidate. Seems like a predictable sounding nationalist slogan that also aligns well with their party name, until you realise it's actually a serendipitous pun on the Nazi slogan "alles für Deutschland", a phrase which is banned in Germany. The pronunciation of the two phrases in German is virtually identical. There's dog whistles, and then there's foghorns.

  • These are such minor changes. The first two videos merely change the animation curve - that's the animation equivalent of changing the colour of a button.

  • Exactly! Everyone is saying 2, but 2 is way too long for comfortable cutting, and that's a very important feature of a fork - unless all you're eating with it is very very soft.

  • The brown is bad, but to be fair to the right side, it's the left one that has bad reflections and is blurry - it was released when bloom effects were new and it used them way too much.

  • APT 3.0 is powered by Solver3, a new, more efficient package dependency resolver that significantly improves how package installations and upgrades are handled. As a backtracking algorithm, it allows for more efficient dependency resolution and better handling of complex package conflicts.

    That's nice, hope it leads to fewer kernel removals, apt is always so eager to remove the kernel.
