I can’t stand Rossman’s videos; but I respect the hell out of his ideas, principles, and efforts to better the slices of technological life that he cares about.

I don’t even have to open the image to know it’s FCKGW!
“It’s a deck of playing cards. How much more fun can it be, compared to the 50+ other solitaire games? And why would I want to play poker by myself?”
So I got a bit of money leftover after bills, and decided to get it anyway cause I haven’t played anything fun this year. Went in blind without reading or watching any reviews.
Turns out it’s NOT just your standard deck of playing cards. You can do all sorts of crazy things to your deck. Like playing illegal hands such as five-of-a-kind, or a flush house. It’s a lot of fun.
Obligatory link to the Rustonomicon.
Should you wish a long and happy career of writing Rust programs, you should turn back now and forget you ever saw this book.
Speaking of stores, there’s also Obtainium if you like living on the edge. It can pull directly from GitHub releases, which may or may not be desirable for different people.
Another obvious one is Firefox or its siblings Mull & Fennec, with their add-on support for a better browsing experience.
There’s also system-wide ad/tracker blocking solutions. I don’t actually have a recommendation on this as most of them share each other’s blocklist anyway.
I just pulled 500 randomly. I don’t know how long it would take me to throw the gamepad and reach for the mouse. 50 might be more realistic. The point is just to prevent accidental bumps.
I also came in with that comment fully expecting younger and much faster players with their 240Hz monitors to disagree profusely.
Ideal for me is auto-switching with a debounce time.
There’s been a few incidents where I’m using my gamepad and accidentally bumped my desk/mouse and completely lose my orientation in game. With a debounce, one form of input needs to have completely stopped for a certain period (say 500ms) before starting to register movements on the other input device.
Dirk Gently S1 is still the most glorious thing I’ve seen on TV.
Triple murder. In the living room. With a… shark?
Or, short of that… If you’re whistleblowing on Boeing, you should go to Airbus and Lockheed and tell them, “it’s in your best interest that I stay breathing”.
To be fair, I’m all for whatever medium would allow science communication be more effective. And for certain demographics, videos are the only thing they could digest, even for things that don’t need visuals. It is what it is, and I’m not in a position to judge.
But yeah, for people like us with one foot on the grave, every minute counts. And nothing beats the efficiency of skim-reading through text.
For the older people like myself that don’t understand why everything needs to be a 5-minute video, here’s a 15-second read:
Classical conditioning (also Pavlovian conditioning) is a type of learning that happens subconsciously.
Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936) was the first to show the way in which it works. He did this in an experiment using dogs. Pavlov noticed that the dogs naturally salivated when they saw food. He paired this unconditioned stimulus (showing food to the dogs) with another, neutral stimulus: the ringing of a bell. Pavlov discovered that, if the two stimuli are presented together again and again, the organism learns that they belong together.
I really don’t know the Scottish English
If you think American v. British are at 80-90%, Scottish is around 30% and that’s being generous 🙂
Reckon the manbaby-in-chief will let it stay up?
Omg how have I not heard about this. I’m blaming you for my lack of social life in the next couple weeks. Not that I have one to begin with.
Every. Single. Time. 🤚👆🤚
I don’t see what’s so confusing… We’re not allowed to discuss how discussions should be handled. But looking at how this thread is still up, we are allowed to discuss the removal of those discussions discussing how to discuss things 🙃

You know what’s funny, the two clients that don’t support your dropdown/spoiler for anti-commercial licences were commercial closed-source Lemmy clients.
I say sod them and go back to your dropdown.
