I feel you’ve missed the point I was making and assumed I’ve made another. Age number and year number are different. You’re in your first year when your age is not yet 1. You’re in your second year when your age is between 1 and 2.
Years follow numbers as in "this year was the first/second/third year of ", not “this year was the year turned X years old”
The language is rooted in the same logic as people. Your first year was between the ages of 0 and 1. The first year before you were born is between -1 and 0. There is no 0th year because 0 is a point in time and not a range in time.
Love the CEO sketches! And they’re not even in the top five things Brennan has done, probably!
If you’re a little clever with interpolation, you don’t need to run at 1000s of frames per second! You’d just calculate how much time after the last frame it would take to cross the line at the last known speed and position.
I’ve had an impressively easy time finding particular messages as long as I had a decent idea of what servers it might have been in and at least one of the following:
Which has been way better than most other things I’ve bothered to search through like Reddit, Beehaw, or Mastodon (especially when it was limited entirely to hashtags). Lord help me if I want to find a particular post or comment on TikTok or Youtube.
Both Gmail and Outlook have dipped into having 2+ sidebar menus, with one of them permanent. And for both, it’s to shoehorn in features/flows that aren’t the thing I’m there for (e-mail).
First time encountering one! I’m almost impressed how you can write about something as technical as Linux in the writing style and cadence of shady medical supplement ads for the elderly, including bolded accusatory questions and poorly-supported italic statements placed mid-sentence.
Content rate needs to go up, I agree, but the biggest source of content in comparable social media came from something I’d like to avoid: power users.
Well, I guess it’s better than trying to paywall stuff that was previously available.
Also don’t think X calls would be worth using free, let alone for a fee, so we’ll see how that goes.
Yeah no shit those metrics will skew towards Gen Z being more victimized if you’re lumping cyberbullying into the mix!
They’re high in each of those categories individually, not (just) if you add the categories together and compare the totals. Millennials are slightly higher in Romance scams and identify theft though.
BUT these numbers are also self-disclosed. I’m not sure how you’d correct for this in a survey, but I could easily believe that these two generations are simply more likely to realize they’ve been victimized, and have a higher exposure to the internet (and thus to scams).
I’d be more interested in something like a sit-down test, to be honest. It’d be easier to account for time spent online and self-awareness of victimization, and more likely to isolate “internet street smarts”, as far as I can tell.
I always sort of read those jokes as illustrative as GLaDOS being a bad person fielding weak material more than like, an earnest expression of the game writer’s values. Like, the game itself doesn’t present the remarks themselves as funny so much as GLaDOS being rude, snippy, and actively incorrect given that Chell is mega-fit.
The one bottle I bought, I’ve had since 2010, I think. I have a few other bottles that I’ve picked up for free (conferences, college housing promo) from ~2012, ~2015, ~2019?
Thanks! Yeah, it looks like it covers T-mobile minus the GHZ/ mmWave bands, which is good for me. A solid consider, especially if they (eventually) drag it over to the states like the Fairphone 5.
Their website doesn’t seem to specify which GSM bands it has (simply “More Bands and Band-Combinations for better reception”). I want to know how much of a given provider’s spectrum I’d be missing out on trying to sneak one of these to the states.
Yes, I do 20USD/mo, I think, because I’ve taken up what I’ve been calling “Secular Tithing” in the last few years, and Wikimedia and its ventures were useful learning and research tools for my undergrad and highschool. Less so during my master’s, but that’s just how that goes.
Too bad (for them) the newer version of Tweetdeck was ✨worse✨ than the old one.
A good number of those subreddits became breeding grounds for not-so-subtle racist dogwhistling, so I don’t really miss them.
A lot of the others sort of ran through the actually good, viable content before expanding to being less good (/r/YoutubeHaiku basically dropping the ‘unscripted’ requirement and becoming essentially, short-form skits and streamer clips). I tend to follow people with content I like directly on TikTok and Youtube these days. Aggregators of content tend to go either generic or toxic, I find.
Ooh yeah. I wasn’t going to jump through that weird whitelist process to get that twitter blueblocker on Firefox for Android, but not I don’t have to!
Ooh, I have a file that crashes 1.2 every time I try to move an element in it. I wonder if it’ll handle it properly, now.
See, that’s much closer to “(It was) my pleasure”, which is a valid English response (though these days it puts people in the mind of “Chick-fil-A employee”) than it is “You’re welcome”.
