Hot take: your gender is irrelevant in 90% of situations

Gary Newman -> Gary Oldman

That is a good question, but I suspect if you tried this in real life it would still show static.

• The waves are amplified with a circuit that attempts to find a signal even if it's very weak (so you can get a picture even if you're close or very far from the tv station)
• At a certain point, the electromagnetic field from the running TV itself would start to get picked up

I suspect a better thought experiment would be if you just disconnected the input and amplification circuit entirely from the CRT tube, in which case you would probably just get white as the electron beam scans back and forth without any modulation.

It's a 3x3x3 cube that teachers give to students to stop them fidgeting in class

Id be equally proud to be the parents of either Margo or Keanu

I think that's the gimmick - it's like a spot the difference once you've done the puzzle and are still in Minnesota with nothing else to do.

I assume just normal credit card payments online? PayPal started because people were scared to use their card online, but now you get all the same buyer protections and insurance.

Andy B,, - good first name for a tester

No, this is Ratrick.

I know you yanks like to go around shooting each other, but if you absolutely must challenge someone to a duel - do be so kind as to use your sword instead.

Did you just assume my species?

Bring back personal homepages and webrings!

User: I've tried everything

Support: Have you tried ?

Those are rookie numbers. Come back when your social media platform has lost 20 Billion.

I don't think anyone is arguing "No matter what he does".

It's: look at the two candidates and decide which one is going to be better for the future of your country.

If Biden actually does something outrageous that makes you think "Man, this guy is worse than Trump" then that's just common sense.

I'm not an expert on the subject, but at least one of the calenders you're thinking of is a Lunar calendar.

So not 365.242374 days but a variety of other synchronisation problems.

It's JNU/Jinux, Jod Jammit!

Maybe she should move to another country. That's what I'd do.

Keep the batteries at or below 20%

You see, Chips are deep fried slices of potato, but Chips are ..

Well, you see Kif, my strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it: reputation is adjusted by "votes" so that other users can up or downvote another.

Thus solving the problem, once and for all.

NO! I don't think you understood at all!

Someone else hired a person and paid them 3.49 to drive hot food around.

Then a customer, who also paid the first person paid the driver more than their employer did.

If I could slap you over the internet right now I would.

Quand je mange du poulet, je l'appelle poulet. Aile de poulet; pilons de poulet etc.

Quand je mange de l'agneau, je l'appelle agneau. Jarret d'agneau; côtelettes d'agneau.

Alors pourquoi est-ce que je ne mange pas de cochon ou de vache ? Je mange du porc ou du boeuf.

Quelle est la raison de ceci?

... From a certain point of view.

It's your Beanniversary 🫘

Do not upgrade to Gemini assistant! It literally cannot do any Google home tasks, like set alarms, events, tasks etc.

This is despite it explicitly claiming that it can do most Assistant task (including the ones I mentioned above).

This is the early internet - a self hosted, bunch of regular people just doing stuff for stuff's sake.

Also https://www.cockeyed.com - decentralized, zero budget fun.

In some ways, the low-medium technical barrier was perfect. If you could do some basic html or PHP, you were a creator.

You'll probably have to generate a lot of plots, graphs and figures. Choosing the right type of figure to explain the data is an important skill - maybe have a play with some of the examples from https://r-graph-gallery.com/

The consecutive rounds system in France is basically a runoff election.

Ranked choice is an "instant runoff" - same outcome but you only have to fill out the ballot once.

No, I said A. Blinkin

Cruel AND unusual??

I remember reading those Dev journals too, but I feel like they helped me to get more out of B&W than most other people.

Yes, it was all about building hype, but it meant that I played more in a "find-your-own-fun-and-set-your-own-goals" way, which I think was what the original intent was.

Everyone's biggest complaint was that the missions were half-baked and felt like they were thrown in right at the end. And they were right.

Nor does it explain the irregular angles - it mentions a 45° cursor, but if it was 45° the tip would be aligned with the tail.

I just wanted to say that Lemmy.world has been much more stable for me lately, thanks!

I know a lot of people are putting in hard work to get here, so I hope you know your effort is being noticed.

Yes

The slap was because you were blaming the person who actually contributed more to the driver.

The correct response is: Wow! The delivery fee was only 3.49! How do they expect someone to work for such a pathetic wage!
