If you happened to like one of your test bakings particularly then you couldn’t reproduce it as accurately unless your method is consistent enough. So you wouldn’t benefit that much if the test was success, I suppose. But I don’t really do much baking so I don’t know how difficult it is to get it right and how much it matters.
I think he meant having the 3,5 mm jack in a phone.
I played it occasionally but, as you said, it wasn’t very interesting game for young children. I guess it was interesting only subconsciously (the vivid dreams I mentioned in the other comment). Maybe it would have been fun game if I were an adult at the time.
We didn’t really have arcade in our town but there were some coin-operated games around. I think it wasn’t very long period of time they had Polybius but I remember playing it occasionally during that time. I was quite young so I didn’t fully understand the gameplay and can’t really recall any elements of it anymore. Only thing I do remember is I used to have vivid dreams about it when I hadn’t played it for a while. That sort of made me interested to play it again every once in a while. Though I must have been terrible at that game so I don’t know why I even tried it that many times.
I didn’t really thought about it when they had changed the machine to different one. I would rather play the Street Fighter II or whatever they had put there instead because it was much easier game to understand. There have been occasional dreams I’ve had much later in my life about this game but other than that I don’t really think about it. Sometimes after having that kind of vivid dream I do think for a while that it would be nice to give it a try again but I don’t know if they have the game anywhere or if it’s possible to emulate via MAME.
My hands aren’t particularly small either and I hate big phones. I like to use my phone with one hand most of the time so I need a small phone to hold it comfortably and to reach around the touch screen.
I’ve noticed even few millimeters of difference in width has great impact on how comfortable the phone is to use. Gesture navigation also helps and I think it was created out of necessity for bigger phones.
A ‘pager’ is a utility that takes a markup text (say, Roff) and displays that text, formatted, in the terminal. The first pager was nroff(1) for the aforementioned Roff, and you may still find nroff(1) on UNIX-based systems.
Wouldn’t it be less or more (or most) that is the pager part and roff being the part that does formatting for terminal. As far as I understand roff does the runoff of the text file. It formats the text properly and inserts all the necessary escape codes for terminal. Then that can be piped to pager which shows the text page by page.
Looks like an interesting project. Didn’t try it but looked into the source code and I think there was not really any keybindings similar to less. I suggest adding at least g, G, C-f and C-b.
But would it be possible for this project to utilize external pager? That would make the development easier.
But does it mean the 15% is non-standard or just not implemented at all? If it’s not implemented then all of the implementation is 100% standard compliant and if everyone stopped relying on the 15% part then developing for Firefox should make it compatible for rest of the browsers.
2010s era memes
Maybe because we millenials like to reminisce the memes of the time when memes were good.
On the positive note that gives you an opportunity to learn new languages. Maybe you understand one word in a meme post and that’s enough to understand it. Maybe you look up what does it say in the post if you find it interesting. Not really an effective way to learn in itself but a way to expose yourself to foreign languages.
Which things do you find boring and restrictive about it? I think it’s rather nice although I don’t like some of the changes after Catalina like moving from skeuomorphic icons to more symbolic ones.
Other than aesthetics I think editing and writing is fast on macOS even when not using vim. I even changed my PCs to use mac keyboard layout because it’s better. Of course when using vim, editing should work same on any system at least in theory.
Half man, half bear and half pig obviously.
PRESSURE 30.4 inHG
Do Americans really use inches of mercury to measure air pressure? Even millimeters of mercury would feel weird for me in weather context. I’ve seen mmHg used mostly in medical and chemistry stuff. I guess it really is anything but metric for you guys.
!rickygervais@lemmy.world I want to see people post more Karl Pilkington stuff here
The latter part sounds like PC speaker but the first part doesn’t. How does the first part work? Pulse width modulation to play samples or something like that?
That cat is definitely so lute!
I also use the same bottles over a period of time but I don’t think about it like I’m drinking leftovers most of the time. You might think I do but I just consider them pre-opened bottles or not even that. They’re just bottles, in very similar state to when they were opened. I’m not thinking about it like oh, this is the leftover from when I bought and opened this bottle.
and also that being based on Debian LMDE is 100% community based.
At first I read it as “completely based” and wondered whether LMDE is also red pilled.
Someone commented on my post about Devil World that what I experienced was Tetris effect. When I was scrolling vertically on my phone I would occasionally experience sideways scrolling similar to the game mechanic even though there certainly wasn’t any sideways scrolling happening.
Another one was when I was playing Portal. Traveling via portals became my usual method to move around in every dream I had those days.
