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!
Sir, did you just fill an old timey beer stein with soda?
Snaps are a relatively recent way of packaging application installations in certain flavors of Linux. Steam is Valve’s game distribution platform (amongst other things).
There’s an unofficial Snap package to install Steam and it apparently doesn’t work so good
American marriage tax codes are written to benefit the sort of couple with a stay-at-home-spouse. Having one person without an income (or with a significantly lower income) in the marriage effectively pulls you down in the tax brackets as a whole.
Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and capitalist hardware.
Fire at will, commander.
Homestuck.
Not in the reading of it, which I did out of the momentum of Bard quest and Problem Sleuth, but in the way that it rippled through the online media landscape and affected discourse and things like Undertale, webcomics, and crowd funding.
Not in any “profound” way, but in a measurably gigantic one.
On the other hand… Super Duper Key.
The double period is simultaneously the most elderly thing and outside of any style guide.
Had syncthing gotten better? When I tried it like… Years ago before moving to the more centralized Nextcloud, it has a habit of “restoring” files I had deleted from the other instances.
Yeah, between the image compression and resolution, a lot of things that should be ‘gaps’ in the letters are closing up. Like, the ‘s’ in ‘psuedorandom’ or ‘set’ looks like a squished-up ‘g’.
I can read individual words as I’m looking at them, but I’ve lost the ability to scan the line and parse words in my peripheral vision.
Multiple monitors, touch screens, tablet digitizers remain a letdown constantly. Not always fully broken, but falling just short enough that actually fixing it is a pain and just living without the feature (or Linux) is easier.
I’ve moved to Ubuntu after getting burned pretty badly with CentOS’s getting mistreated and eventually killed. Ubuntu feels stable enough, both in terms of their updates/quality and in terms of their corporate proceedings (such that I won’t get absolutely blasted by mandatory repos being closed down, for example).
You heard it that way because that’s because that’s the end of 1 Corinthians 13:11:
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
C.S. Lewis is playing off of a Bible quote and that became its own thing.
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.
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.
Kailh box royals baby! Get the beefiest tactile feedback and avoid the high pitched noise.
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?
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”.
