Yeah,

1 + (1*5000%) = 51

Honestly I prefer just writing “51 times more frequent”.

Waddaya mean we can’t just arbitrarily delete stuff of a public server once we know its ip address? It’s not fair! 😡

yes

He made a post using command line lingo too, but anyone with even basic knowledge of those commands can tell you that both the syntax and the way he alludes to them are wrong.

It’s the equivalent of slinging a guitar in a picture to look cool but pressing the side with the strings against your belly.

Yeah, what a joke. Especially when Musk is right there in the headline 😞.

Imo they should at the very least standardize some color coding and labeling. All charging-only cables are yellow, data cables are blue. Something like that.

Ah yes, there isn’t even an option to permanently disable this popup, only remind me later. When the operating system is the nag ware. `

Na, names are about pronunciation (how you call someone). Written letters are an approximation of that. You can’t pronounce a newline, so there’s that.

There was some degree of standardization. Especially for important legal and religious texts alteration, even if accidental, was considered a sin/vice.

Scribes very often simply had to produce 1:1 copies of existing texts. So the standard was right in front of them.

You wouldn’t think how far clerical errors could go when it was laboriously copied by hand by exhausted monks in candlelight.

The whole Mary was a virgin thing (aka immaculate conception) was started because someone mistranslated young woman as (sexual) virgin. In some languages those terms are really close (even today for example in German: junge Frau Vs Jungfrau).

To be fair some languages like English or French have so horrendous and outdated orthography that I’m not going to fault the writers.

Writers. Why is there even a W in that word still? Ridiculous, write?

I initially wrote ‘temptor’ in the title but then double checked. Not today, Titivillus.

Nice. I’m wondering how often this cycle has played out so far …?

That was a wild ride. Well done 👏

After watching the original video I started putting some additional powder at the bottom of the loading tray every wash and it works great. Clean dishes ever since, no pre rinse necessary. Can recommend 👍.

git gud

not a meme per se but I always found the command abcde confusing:

user1: How to best rip this music album??

user2: Oh simple: abcde

user1: 🤔🤔?

abcde stands for ‘a better CD encoder’, the more you know

I mean taking the screenshot is the easy part, getting reliable OCR on the other hand …

In my experience (tesseract) current OCR works well for continuous text blocks but it has a hard time with tables, illustrations, graphs, gui widgets, etc.

GoldenEye has terrible controls compared to modern controller and especially mouse+keyboard but in multiplayer it didn’t really matter as anyone is on even footing.

My family still has one but the image quality is terrible on modern big screen TVs because

1. It’s stretched out and native resolution of N64 is already tiny by today’s standards.
2. Unnatural aspect ratio unless you can set black bars somehow.
3. Modern displays have sharper pixel separation and colors don’t ‘bleed’ into each other as much which kinda helped the rough polygons of that era.

The result is a picture that is both sharp and blurry at the same time and gives me head aches after an hour or so.
