I’m glad I’m not the only one that thought of that song. XD

I’m not quite that young. Netizen is a “citizen of the internet”, IIRC. More specifically, it’s a portmanteau of “internet” and “citizen”.

I had also heard what the meaning of GIF was, though not so often that I could remember it off the top of my head.

I’m not quite as old as the JPG format, but I do still remember using dial-up. I still remember accidentally logging into the internet when my dad was on the phone one day. I could hear his voice through the computer speakers. I immediately closed the browser. It was something that’d, surprisingly, never happened while I was on the computer before.

Yeah, but it’s almost always used for animations. Seeing one that’s not animated just feels… weird.

That’s… a great question. What’s the purpose of a gif with only one frame?

Because everyone has a different core temperature. So it really can’t be set value like 100°F.

Generally speaking, a fever of 100°F is “fine”, albeit completely exhausting and not at all fun, but it’s good for helping the body to fight infections.

Fevers higher than 102°F are when you need to start working on bringing that fever down. If it climbs higher than that, you risk brain injury. The proteins in your body will also start to denature (lose their ability to function) as your temperature climbs, including proteins that work within your brain and your nervous system.

If it continues to climb or won’t go down even after taking medicine, you need to call your doctor or go to the hospital.

Yes, but 99% (give or take) of Android users won’t know or care how to install 3rd party apps. So most people would only care about the Google Play Store limitation.

That’s for manually installing apps, I believe. But developers on Google Play have to follow this.

I think you meant to reply to this comment.

Technically, Android does that, too, but the limit on that is a few years. If I’m not mistaken, the lowest version of Android that Google will allow a user to install through the Play Store is Android 12 (released in September 2020).

I’m a Windows user, but my church uses a Mac to run its projection and video recording. I’ll admit it works pretty well for what we typically need it to do, but it recently took me like five minutes to figure out how to crop a picture because you apparently can’t do that by simply opening the file and clicking the crop icon.

Mac’s filesystem is an absolute mess, too. This might just be my own inexperience, but I’ve saved things like PowerPoints and videos in order to upload them, and then I’ll go to the website to upload them, and I won’t be able to find them because they’re not in a specific folder or something.

This is true. It’s an operating system that runs on a computer.

Computers can be good or bad depending on the hardware they use.

Fast forward to today, I ended up killing him and am writing this from jail.

That went from 0 to 100 real fast.

What’s the number of Threads users compared to Lemmy? If the number of Threads users greatly outweigh the number of Lemmy users, then we’d simply be drowned out by all the Threads posts. That’s part one of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

Extend adds functionality to Threads that Lemmy either can’t support or won’t support for a while due to development time. People migrate to Threads because Lemmy is “missing” functionality. Plus, though I’m not clear on the exact legal specifications, proprietary code can be added to open-source code, and the proprietary code would be copyrighted. In other words, Lemmy devs would have to figure out a way to interact with and mimic Threads’ proprietary code using open-source code.

Extinguish is when Threads’ support of Lemmy is eventually dropped. The users left on Lemmy have suddenly lost a huge amount of content, and they’re left with fewer users than before Threads enabled federation.

The only reason Switch emulation is as far along as it is is because they made a mistake with the hardware in the Switch’s 2017 model. As long as they don’t make a mistake like that again, they’ll probably be fine.

Step 6: (non-)profit.

Oh, my bad. It was zed instead of the letter “zee”.

It’s 3am, and I’m exhausted, about to head to bed.

Whenever I hear someone say “zed”, it always throws me for a loop. I follow a Canadian streamer, and they use it in place of “zero” the letter “zee”.

That’s true. Those trucks are huge.

I was very confused by the headline. I legitimately could not understand what it was saying. Then I saw the website.
