There are vim plugins for ai chat bot integrations. Vim is a perfectly robust IDE that can be as dumb as any other

Right. 1F = 1C/1V .. they could have just as easily said 1kF = 1C/1V. Many things use kg instead of g. You can tie together things other than the unscaled base units. Then they are still tied together but 1F is a more reasonable amount.

"peace, but I already started shooting at you so let me finish that real quick instead of stopping"

Depending on the UI/app you use for Lemmy, you may only be able to pick languages you have set on your profile (My mobile app lets me pick any language, but the default web UI (shown above) only shows languages on my profile).

I feel like "Japanese games" is pretty vague. Square Enix and Fromsoft are some of the largest Japanese studios out there and their games work great on Linux.

I agree. The best part of the fediverse is the diversity.

However, for someone who doesn't speak this language, having it marked as English content is not helpful. Would be very nice to have content properly tagged as the actual language it is in, so that users can opt to see content in languages they understand, would be great.

I don't have a language filter on, so this wouldn't affect me, but language tags and filters exist for this very purpose, so it would be nice to see them properly used.

We just don’t make tech for old people the way we should.

My mother in law says things like "Wow, your son is just so good with computers." She was impressed at how "tech savvy" he was because he was able to change the brightness on her phone for her so she could show him a picture better.

A lot of our UIs are built for absolute no-thinking usability. How would you propose changing the brightness on a phone that would make it more "old people friendly". It's not a matter of difficulty. She just doesnt remember these things, and a different flow may not necessarily be remembered either.

And I'm not saying its her fault or that she's bad because of it. She was raised learning how to do and remember things a certain way and that has necessarily changed over the years.

A phone can do a lot of things, so unless you want to have 100 apps on your home screen, you'll have to group some together. For instance, putting WiFi into a Settings app. Having every individual setting just available on the home screen potentially complicates things even worse by being overwhelming.

Genuinely curious how you think things like this could be redesigned to be more old people friendly.

Infowars was being sold to pay Sandy Hook lawsuit. The Onion won the bid for Infowars. They were going to make it a satire site. Then some "we don't want to sell to them even though we have to as part of asset liquidation" drama means that the sale got cancelled (which is what the comic is referencing)

Axios's target demo is the employers, not the affected young people.

This is an article about "if you don't care about other people, stop and think about how it affects your bottom line." It's meant to be a way to attempt to instill some pseudo-empathy into the sociopath business types.

When you are trying to talk sense to dense people, sometimes you have to say things that don't tone well with reality in order to reach them.

That is his entire resume though. It's not a "back in college" thing when you are fresh out of college.

I never signed a contract to be born, or to die of old age. We don't always get to approve of the circumstances of life.

I'm using a 9950x3d and have never had to intervene with anything

 

A British person making a video about a Czech stadium, and not just using metric?! Not an American in sight, and yet...

 

Maybe this is just a me problem, and I can't find the settings. Or maybe these are things they changed in 115 and made it worse?

Collapsing threads. If I collapse everything thread, click to a different folder and then click back, every thread is expanded. I would vastly prefer "every thread is collapsed", or "we remember where things were". I never even noticed what it was on 102, but it wasn't "always expand everything"

Tab bar positioning. In 102 (and I could swear in some 115 screenshots Ive seen) the tab bar was at the very top. In 115, the tab bar is below the "Get Messages, Write, Address Book, etc" + search toolbar. The old way was so much better. It feels weird to have things ABOVE the tab bar change when i select a tab. thats the point of tabs, things are supposed to be contained "within" the tab.

Both of these are from their own documentation:

Old good:

New busted:

Are there settings for either of these changes, or is 115 just a downgrade for me and I should stick to 102?
