Someone commented on my post about Devil World that what I experienced was Tetris effect. When I was scrolling vertically on my phone I would occasionally experience sideways scrolling similar to the game mechanic even though there certainly wasn’t any sideways scrolling happening.

Another one was when I was playing Portal. Traveling via portals became my usual method to move around in every dream I had those days.

It’s the same way in Finnish.

Yes it does. I think it’s that way because it’s in locative case even though it doesn’t make the word itself look any different. English sort of has cases and doesn’t.

It works similarly in Latin. You don’t say ad domum. You only say domum.

If you happened to like one of your test bakings particularly then you couldn’t reproduce it as accurately unless your method is consistent enough. So you wouldn’t benefit that much if the test was success, I suppose. But I don’t really do much baking so I don’t know how difficult it is to get it right and how much it matters.

I think he meant having the 3,5 mm jack in a phone.

You mean collage? I agree. I think your suggestion would work best if it was also made to look like an obvious collage. If it was accurately photoshopped to look like the penguins were actually there it would look silly.

But in many cases Windows is pre-installed so it doesn’t matter if installing Windows is equally hard. People don’t have to install Windows in order to use it. In order to get normal people to use Linux there should be similarly no barrier to entry. I’ve seen companies selling used laptops with Linux distro of choice pre-installed. Something like that could work.

I see people in this thread complaining about fake sugar and someone mentioned chewing gum with real sugar. I’m just wondering do they sell xylitol gum in America? I see no point in chewing gum if it’s not even healthy for teeth.

My hands aren’t particularly small either and I hate big phones. I like to use my phone with one hand most of the time so I need a small phone to hold it comfortably and to reach around the touch screen.

I’ve noticed even few millimeters of difference in width has great impact on how comfortable the phone is to use. Gesture navigation also helps and I think it was created out of necessity for bigger phones.

Moving to Lemmy made me realize how much time I wasted lurking on Reddit. I didn’t bother to participate because someone would have already said what I thought. Sometimes I could even read one thread for days because there was just so much to read.

But I don’t know if it’s good or bad if there are so many comments. Maybe it’s good if you learn something useful but I don’t think it’s that useful to read for days about random subject you don’t need. At least it’s a some form of entertainment. I think I just read less now that I’m on Lemmy.

Partial derivative

But does it mean the 15% is non-standard or just not implemented at all? If it’s not implemented then all of the implementation is 100% standard compliant and if everyone stopped relying on the 15% part then developing for Firefox should make it compatible for rest of the browsers.

On the positive note that gives you an opportunity to learn new languages. Maybe you understand one word in a meme post and that’s enough to understand it. Maybe you look up what does it say in the post if you find it interesting. Not really an effective way to learn in itself but a way to expose yourself to foreign languages.

I use it. I also use bluetooth headphones but wired headphones are more reliable. No connection problems. And I haven’t tried bluetooth headphones with microphone so I don’t know if they’re any good. I need the microphone for phone calls.

Which things do you find boring and restrictive about it? I think it’s rather nice although I don’t like some of the changes after Catalina like moving from skeuomorphic icons to more symbolic ones.

Other than aesthetics I think editing and writing is fast on macOS even when not using vim. I even changed my PCs to use mac keyboard layout because it’s better. Of course when using vim, editing should work same on any system at least in theory.

Half man, half bear and half pig obviously.

PRESSURE 30.4 inHG

Do Americans really use inches of mercury to measure air pressure? Even millimeters of mercury would feel weird for me in weather context. I’ve seen mmHg used mostly in medical and chemistry stuff. I guess it really is anything but metric for you guys.

!rickygervais@lemmy.world I want to see people post more Karl Pilkington stuff here

Well, it’s certainly shorter than the table in the parent comment.

Any idea is there anything similar available on LG webOS?
