It’s still effectively Chrome under the hood…

Yeah, I tried it in my other comment, and at first it started with “I think, folks…” which was already a dead end, because any continuation I tried would eventually need a “they”. Kind of wild that something as basic as plural can fuck you up. 😅

Yeah, I figured, once I actually thought about it. 😅

I’m now imagining you going to the grocery store, pretending to be your twin, to get the employee discount. 🙃

I think, you usually post, if you got a thing to say. And thus you want to say that thing, not look for formulations all day long…

Mastodon instance where you can’t post the letter “e”: https://oulipo.social/public/local 🙃

Would love to know, too. To my European eyes, it looks like onions, potatoes, apples and tomatoes, but surely they have some different produce there. Whatever is in the bottom-left does look unfamiliar, at least…

But what if your kink is personal attention?

Apparently, it was in a forest in Guyana. And well, perhaps you’re imagining a filled-out spiral, but in this case, it looked like a normal ant migration at the first. They were going in 6 lanes at most and at 370 meters circumference, that just looks like a line until you follow it around.

That’s according to this source, which seems to have excerpts from his book: https://themountainsarecalling.earth/the-army-ant-death-spiral/

A few years ago, I set up a home-server with music and some pictures on there, and recently I noticed that my storage disk was getting full. Then I saw that the disk only had 16 GB and wondered, where the hell I got that small of a disk from.

So, I go to plug in a bigger disk and can’t even find the original disk at first. Turns out my whole storage capacity was one of these bad boys:

And yeah, I’ve got about 1800 songs, clocking in at 5.8 GB, so even that tiny storage would easily be enough for a much larger collection.
And I do also have them replicated on my phone, for listening on the go. (Don’t even need an SD card in my case.)

Presumably, that ampersand needs to be replaced with &…

I find that it’s mainly frustrating to those learning German at an advanced level, since using a wrong article immediately exposes you as a non-native speaker. Because yeah, as the others said, it hardly ever happens that native speakers use a wrong article…

Yeah, I just thought that’s called “dry shampoo”, but not sure where I got that idea from. Might’ve just been a brainfart. 😅

Huh, I thought, dry shampoo is a bar soap with additives. Sounds like it’s pretty much the polar opposite…

Man, at $DAYJOB, if we open-source something, they tell us to check for checked-in passwords and whatnot, and force us to throw away the commit history, which always feels stupid when we’ve known upfront that we’re going to open-source it and so kept things clean from the start.

But then, yeah, you see a post like that and just think that it really wouldn’t have been too difficult to search for swear words before publishing.
I mean, I also don’t really care, since it’s code rather than an official communication channel, but I can understand why management might care.

There’s a store in the next town, which has only organic foods. Rather expensive to shop there, but I still go there more often than I need to, just because everyone’s friendly and relaxed.

Yeah, if I ever catch a calm hour in the store, I’ll actually look through the aisles and check out products I wouldn’t normally buy. If the store is busy, I grab the usual and flee as quickly as possible.

I thought about creating something like that and the major problem that I see is that lots of meme templates do have copyright and the font that’s typically used for memes, Impact, isn’t free either. Well, and it isn’t done by merely developing a software and offering it for download. You would need to host the meme templates or some editor webpage, which is a whole 'nother skillset.

If we say that users bring their own meme template, and it can be a free font that looks similar to Impact, and it’s not to be hosted as a webpage, then it would be quite doable.
You would “just” need to call the ImageMagick library with the right parameters. Still not trivial, but the path to get there is fairly straightforward. I could imagine that something like that already exists as an open-source project…

It’s mostly about ease of use. You don’t really want to spend more than a few minutes on a silly meme. As such, having a database with meme templates, the right kind of font and easy text placement, can make the difference, whether you’ll bother creating a meme or not…
