Given this data, I think I can reasonably predict that lyrics of pop songs in about 20 or 30 years will mostly consist of cursing. Maybe even sooner given my personal impression of pop songs repeating their lines more often each decade.

I’ve also never heard about people paying the cost (partially) themselves, except in the US.

It goes both ways!

My only windows machine left still runs Winamp. It may be old, but at least for playing my offline library, I really don’t know what they could possibly change. For everything else, I wouldn’t use Winamp anyway.

I’m gonna be honest, I love that design. That comparison just makes it better, those games had a big part in my childhood.

The main draw of xmonad is that you can modify pretty much everything, as the config itself is a Haskell file (the entire thing is written in Haskell). There are tonnes of modules to use, you can define your own window layouts and add whatever functions you can dream off - I haven’t seen any other window manager offer this kind of freedom (with the added joy of learning Haskell!).

As for the second point, about half a year ago, they started doing exactly this. Rewriting xmonad for Wayland. Guess I’ll sit this one out.

I just set up xmonad because I was in the mood for change. Took about a week of tinkering a bit each day and I really like it. Afterwards, I was still in the mood for configs and looked at Wayland. There isn’t much progress on Wayland xmonad, so guess that has to wait.

That’s a common problem I’ve been hearing for almost 10 now - the software support isn’t quite there yet.

I’m not saying it can’t be a dyson sphere, but I feel like that’s a pretty click-baity explanation. Usually the simplest anwser is the most likely one and that’s never a dyson sphere.

That’s why I prefer smaller communities. Like, not lemmy-small, I mean actual small. 10-15 people. Haven’t seen any bots in those.

I’m old enough to remember this comic, back when it had text in the 4th panel explaining the joke. Then people collectively decided it’s better without that.

35, actually. The graphic is a few years old.

Honestly, it’s probably more accurate now. Most people I’ve seen eat that shit up like it’s AGI.

That’s so far removed from how my brain actually works, it might as well be magic. I simply stare at the board and make mental notes which spaces would have which pieces, but there’s nothing visual to it. Take away the board and I can’t do a thing to plan my next moves.

For the record, I also never have any songs stuck in my head. When listening to stuff, I can recognize wrong notes and such, but I cannot in any form listen to music in my head. Heck, I can barely hum the tunes of my favorite songs after listening to them hundreds of times.

Just don’t take away the option to fully use the width for the video and I don’t care. I’m either viewing in full screen or with a browser window only showing the video.

On a side note: Why make comments more prominent? They have always been pretty bad, but last time I checked half of them were bots with softcore porn images. Don’t think they have fixed that yet.

That’s not a boost of legitimacy, that’s just another success for Metas EEE plan.

No way, we haven’t even found all of them yet! Based on estimations, about 50~95% of all species have not been identified. (I looked that up.) You can go out there right now and find the new tastiest vomit yourself!

Something like this?

That simply isn’t true, I think. A game based on Pathfinder made by Larian would most certainly do better than anything they could pump out based on D’n’D without Larian. It’s Larian and Baldur’s Gate specifically who got more recognition, not D’n’D as whole.

I don’t know about this quote specificly, but Darwin spent almost 10 years working on barnacles to establish himself and came to hate them. It was supposed to be a quick detour before releasing ‘On the Origin of Species’. During that time he made a lot of similar statements.
