It came with either Windows 2000 or XP.

When you realize 90% of programming is reading, then you’ll end up embarking on a journey to make code more readable. At some point you fall in love with ligatures.

Attacking Åland would be invading Finland, a NATO country. They wouldn’t dare.

How does this work for poly people? Just a shower throught.

Does that in fact only affect posts, but not comments? Exactly what I needed!

I’m leaning towards that, but doesn’t hurt to ask. I might suggest this as a feature to the Sync developer, I can already filter posts and comments by keywords and it helps a ton with certain type of content. Wouldn’t be a stretch to get just a post title/community name filter.

Feel free to join Ukraine as a voluntary fighter. Many have done so. Or keep spouting shit here about others. Put your money where your mouth is, Sir Feckless.

Maybe my client doesn’t care about mods (Sync for Lemmy). Otherwise maybe mod removal is just for the mods instace. Im on Sopuli.xyz

It wasn’t a mod. You’re just at -17 vote count because what you said was moronic.

I have my client settings at not to hide, just collapse.

It’s a good start 💁‍♂️

It’s the eu parlament elections, not our own. Our own is still in the hands of a centre-right party, in a coalition with shitty far right party (because they needed a majority, and the typical centrist party decided to not participate).

On the bright side, that far right party is fast losing support.

This rhetoric makes me sad.

History is filled to the brim with rights won NOT through violence. What you say is objectively wrong, though it caters to anyone suspectible to populism.

More like: GIMP can do much of what PS can do, but you’ll tear out your hair trying to, cause it’s so unintuitive and slower.

That’s not a Google issue. That’s literally each and every public traded corporation. They need to maximize shareholders profits by definition.

Could we stop stock markets and that? I’d love it.

I don’t believe anyone decided to step in deeper shit one step at a time, they listed, and from there onwards it’s the only possible path. Death by a thousand greedy strokes.

I think there’s a difference between distributed and decentralised. But apart from that 👍

That’s a lie.

Well, definitions are typically things people agreed upon, at one time or another. So what we have now, generally started from what everyone agreed upon during the antique times. Then, during the Renaissance times the definition expanded to cover all “four corners” of Earth. Australia was also included later, as time went by.

Physically Europe and Asia are a single continent, sure, and when discussing that, we use the name Eurasia. Funnily enough, Africa used to be considered a part of the Asian continent. In any case, definitions shift as the humanity learned more and we needed terms to discuss certain areas.

My point is: we aren’t keeping definitions for historical reasons, even though there is history behind the terms. If we were to divide the globe in to continents for the first time ever, it would stand to reason the areas would be split similarly as they were, because geographically it still makes the most sense.

If we went just by tectonic plates or some similar way to determine continents, I guess we could get more specific easily. But in the context of language and understanding, combining south and north america to a single thing, or europe and asia, makes little sense.

Most English-speaking countries recognize seven regions as continents. In order from largest to smallest in area, these seven regions are Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia.

Now as to how anyone detailed the discussion this far, successfully, is beyond me. Actually everything in your comment after the link is nonsense too.

While this sucks for the family involded, I wouldn’t blame a car maker or anyone else if I accidentally reversed my car into a pond and drowned in it. Rescue attempts were pretty feeble, and if you take a minute to think about it, none of the people at the premises did jack shit either.

It’s a loss for everyone involved, but a cautionary tale as well: don’t dine and wine and hop in your car.
