18 or 3, for summer and winter respectively.

I’ve read about K-9 becoming Thunderbird on smartphones but mine still says K-9.

I was also wondering if this is a continuation of the socks as a social construct thread.

Unlike you, however, I don’t consider the idea to be “hippy shit” at all. In fact, I’ve often thought that we might be better off without corporations. Entrepreneurship is what we need, not impersonal investment.

Probably downvoted by the same people that would downvote my above comment. 🙄

Yes but only on YouTube and for the most harmless of comments.

'tis the season, I guess?

Same.

Almost!

The economy is not made for living beings.

Life exists, and there is no will nor force that can make it compatible with “the economy”. Certainly not in all the ways that its deranged acolytes are calling for.

But the other way around? Let’s give it an honest try, shall we?

Prost Mahlzeit!

Sweet sleep. Speaking of which, back to bed I go. 😴💤

Ads are a brainwashing technique designed to turn my baser instincts against myself for someone else’s gain. And they’re unwanted content that disrupts the flow of the content I’ve chosen to watch.

What is it with those USB dongles? Mine also just died after a while. But yeah, the Xbox controller is great and since it uses regular Bluetooth, the dongle isn’t the only way to connect it.

Only if you do your part.

(is the logic here)

I feel like they’ve gotten better over time. And some settings you’re really only supposed to be changing if you know what you’re doing.

Dialogues that don’t require clicking OK to apply my selection. What if I change my mind or click the wrong thing?

Here’s a past annoyance: help text for BIOS settings that was like

Tronic memory catalyst conversion ratio: Sets the ratio of tronic memory catalyst conversion.

O RLY? 🤔

Blue LEDs are eye piercing, especially when they are always on and you are trying to sleep in the same room.

Users are lazy AF and hate to read. No matter how instructive the error message, some people would rather open a helpdesk ticket because “the computer isn’t working again”.

It says right there your USB drive is full and suggests deleting some files to free up space, Karen! 🤨

The m to km conversion factor is exactly 1000. Same with g to kg and Pa to kPa, W to kW etc.

(maybe you were going for mi to km? Which is 1.6?)

Anything else would be communism since it would infringe on the company’s freedom to do with its human resources whatever the hell it pleases. Therefore, death cultists across the United States will adamantly oppose worker’s rights until their final breath.

“We the People” is how you got plantation-owning slaveholders to write the constitution (and be senators) so they could control U.S. policy despite being way fewer in number than their northern buddies. Kind of the same thing, all told.

Oligarchy masquerading as democracy.
