  • Seriously, Why GIMP Dev(s), Why??

    Jump

  • Or WINE

  • You can count past 1,000 on your fingers by using binary, instead of just 10

    Jump

  • I don't really see how that is better than the count to 1035 that you get from binary though.

  • Are there any apps that let you beam files from your phone to your computer or another phone? Idk what this would be called but it would make my life so much easier

    Jump

  • KDE connect all the way. Runs on Linux, Android, and Windows (I think). Good way to share files, notifications, and clipboard.

  • Hegseth orders rare, urgent meeting of hundreds of generals, admirals

    Jump

  • I mean, I take giving someone a less than honorable discharge so they can stand trial in a civilian court where they got a forty year sentence as more than "Jack shit"...

  • Hegseth orders rare, urgent meeting of hundreds of generals, admirals

    Jump

  • And he was discharged, tried for murder and sentenced to over 40 years in jail.

    What do you think should have been done by the military unit that would have made this better?

  • Hegseth orders rare, urgent meeting of hundreds of generals, admirals

    Jump

  • Every org is going to have extremists, but you are talking about a former military member that was discharged with a less than honorable discharge, who then committed and was sentenced for murder.

    What do you think the AFB should have done here?

  • No words

    Jump

  • Just as a heads up, but if you did enjoy the Princess Bride, the book/Audio book "As You Wish" is legitimately delightful.

    A good amount of the cast get together to talk about all the interesting things that went into making the movie.

  • Hence why I went with "simply charge for the OS". They are moving from monetizing the software to monetizing the user.

    But yes, red line must go up

    Jump

  • It pretty much comes down to wanting to monetize the user experience instead of simply wanting to charge for the OS in the traditional way. The user becomes the commodity instead of the software.

  • Should half naked pictures of anime characters be marked NSFW on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I would have no problem if that popped up in my feed while I was in a public place.

    That said, I don't think it would be safe for work, so the nsfw would apply. But I would not be browsing Lemmy at work either.

  • Mildred

    Jump

  • That is a bit of a selection bias. What you are effectively saying is "the biblical names that have survived to today have staying power".

    But even that isn't true here as almost all of the names you cite are significantly different now than their original forms. Looking at your list we have Yeshua, Shemuel, Mikael, Rivka, Yohanan, Miriam, and Paulus. Adam is mostly the same, as is David (with a bit of an accent difference), but the rest didn't exactly emerge as they were.

  • My understanding is that it is working much better now than a few months ago. I haven't actually put it to the test yet, but it is on my list of things to try once I have time to set up my index again.

  • Intelligence chief warns Canadians that China can use TikTok to spy on them

    Jump

  • Whataboutism doesn't suddenly make the action ok. Two countries doing something wrong doesn't suddenly excuse the act.

  • Fantasy rednecks

    Jump

  • Alright, alright, alright.

  • Scrollbars are becoming a problem

    Jump

  • That doesn't explain why already established products are ditching things like plainly visible scroll bars in products like Microsoft word and other content viewers.

  • What was the first language you got interested in and why?

    Jump

  • אז למדת עברית? אדיין לומד את זה?

  • looks like 2023 is finally the year!

    Jump

  • Fuck around. Find out.

  • Folder

    Jump

  • Computer mouse or live mouse? Yes

  • Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?

    Jump

  • It all falls under the same blanket concept of privacy rights, but yes monetizing user data is a more accurate sub category. It doesn't truly matter what we call it as long as the discussion is being had.
