And other people are thin-skinned when it comes to reading other people’s opinions on the internet 🤷‍♂️

I’ll bite…

The chart has color, cell position, and a number all encoding the exact same data (# of visitors) while, the rest of the data (temperature, weather, day of week) is included as footnotes or annotation. How is this beautiful?

Or just run both, period!

Plex is definitely more straightforward to maintain remote access to your content (including library sharing with friends & family). So it may be worth keeping up for that aspect alone, even if you end up liking Jellyfin better.

You’ve only heard people complain about leaf blowers on lemmy? Seems like a very common annoyance in my general experience, and this is about the time of year when they come out in force, so it’s not surprising people are going to complain.

Also, leaf blowers are pretty damn high on the noise/utility ratio. MFers in my neighborhood will be out there for half an hour blowing around grass clippings after mowing, when the wind is gusting 20mph.

It is, but I kind of wish folks would dial it back to maybe 2-3 solid posts per day. At the current rate it feels like we are going to burn through all the good stuff in a week or two, and it will either become a ghost town or devolve into slop. (Given the finite source material)

See a therapist.

Seriously.

Assuming this is not a troll post, your height is not the reason you’re not getting laid, it’s your shifty incel attitude. If you’re not willing to fix that, everything else is moot.

“WE ARE ALL DOMESTIC TERRORISTS”

I actually prefer it the way it’s executed.

Maybe I’m thinking way too much about this, but each panel obviously takes some time amount of time to draw, and likewise each panel portrays some finite amount of time–not just an instant snapshot of the story. So as the dog is yelling at him, his drawing quality is degrading as he is working on the panel, leading to an inconsistent quality within the panel.

That’s because “Support our troops” has never been about supporting the actual humans in the military–it’s always been about supporting the wars those troops are fed into and the administrations that wage them.

To be generous, some of it might also come from memories of shitty treatment of returning soldiers in the Vietnam era. But for all of my adult life, it has just been a rebuttal to people expressing anti-war sentiment. The exact same way that “Back the Blue” is a rebuttal to people protesting police violence.

I legit can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not, because it perfectly encapsulates the weird way america is so blase about depictions of graphic, gleeful violence while simultaneously being horrified at seeing a nipple.on tv.

To add, there is something about those old 40s and 50s era technical films like you linked that is just so… I don’t what exactly it is, but I find them fascinating and genuinely informative, even though they are explaining tech that is decades obsolete.

It’s pretty awesome that they are still available 70+ years later in excellent quality!

I know this isn’t exactly what you’re asking, but after trying different sprays, coatings, and cleaners to keep my mirror fog free, the most foolproof way to deal with fogging is to deal directly with the cause: the mirror surface is cooler than the surrounding hot humid air, leading to condensation. Running the mirror under shower water for 5-10 seconds to warm it up before shaving has never failed me.

Just thought I’d throw it out there since the anti-fog coatings eventually wear off.

On the chance you’re not aware, they do make a pretty cool little matching numpad. It’s not quite as nice as having a full size keyboard (I wish they docked together with magnets or something), but for just over a hundred bucks all in, it’s a decent compromise.

*ETA: I was basing the “just over a hundred bucks” on the keyboard having been $60 on woot for the longest time, but looks like they are sold out :(

I just checked mine and the cache was 34GB o_0

So it’s not just you!

That’s honestly why they creep me out the most. Spiders will generally be chilling out in a corner somewhere you expect to see them, doing their own thing, and not moving much unless directly disturbed.

Most of my experiences with centipedes involves them darting out from under a baseboard at night and scaring the shit out of me when I’m only half awake. Then by the time I realize what it was, it’s already scrambled across the floor to disappear under some other piece of furniture.

It’s bit reductive to put it in terms of a binary choice between an average human driver and full AI driver. I’d argue it has to hit less pedestrians than a human driver with the full suite of driver assists currently available to be viable.

Self-driving is purely a convenience factor for personal vehicles and purely an economic factor for taxis and other commercial use. If a human driver assisted by all of the sensing and AI tools available is the safest option, that should be the de facto standard.

‘big tech rigged the election’

Isn’t Vance fully in bed with Musk, Thiel, Andreessen, and a cavalcade of similarly minded fash-brained techbros?

That’s the G and the P in GOP. They are literally trying to rig the election with the help of a bunch of billionaire tech bros, but it’s totally okay because “Democrats did it first”

And since the last election was over 1,000 news cycles ago, nobody will question whether that’s actually what happened.

Better a damaged roof still attached to the house than a roof strewn a mile and a half downwind.
