officermike,

I can quote stuff from TV that aired in the late 90s, but I can’t quote shit I watched last night. For me the distinguishing difference is smartphones. I don’t have the attention span to give a TV show my undivided attention anymore, and I’m browsing on my phone while TV plays in the background.

officermike,

Charge him with what, exactly? He has a first amendment right to fly whatever politically divisive flag he (or his wife if we’re to believe him) chooses, just as anyone else does. As far as I’m aware, the Supreme Court still has no legally-binding ethics rules, so no matter how clear a bias he shows, there’s no crime to prosecute. His recusal is at his sole discretion.

I don’t know if the legislative branch has the authority to codify a legally enforceable code of ethics that has some backbone, but even if they do I’m sure someone would fight it up to the Supreme Court where they’d just nullify it anyway.

officermike,

I didn’t even realize Antec still existed. I knew them for their cases (I had the Twelve Hundred), but I haven’t seen any build pics with their cases on Reddit/Lemmy for years. There was a year where it seemed like everyone was building in the Bitfenix Prodigy, then another where everyone was in the NZXT Phantom, then after that it’s been mostly Corsair, Cooler Master, and Fractal. My last 4 have been Fractal.

officermike,

On the optimistic side, helium is a product of nuclear fusion, so we will eventually be able to produce it.

officermike,

Ahh yes, dropping nuclear weapons right next door, risking fallout in your own territory and pissing off every country around you, as well as all your allies. Why not?

officermike,

Its safety is not the crux of the argument from the anti-choice, but it is the flimsy legal excuse they’re using to try to revoke its FDA approval.

officermike,

It’s because as the hot air rises, cool air comes in from all sides of the fire. Your body blocks that air from one side, so the prevailing current of cool air feeding the fire is biased towards you and it carries the smoke with it.

officermike,

Probably true.

officermike,

If you give them permissions. Speaking from Android. Don’t know how iOS works.

which launcher would you suggest and why?

so I finally got the motivation to install lineage os to my phone after thinking about it like year. and now that I finally modified this phone I started thinking about ricing this phone a bit. I’m looking for a launcher that isn’t too minimalistic and with a decent amount of customization. kinda like kde bit you know…...

officermike,

I landed on Nova back in 2013 because it allowed me to assign secondary app shortcuts to icons on my dock that are accessed by swipe-up gestures. My hotbar has:

  • phone, but swipe up for contacts
  • messages, but swipe up for Gmail
  • music player, but swipe up for YouTube
  • Firefox, but swipe up for clock app

Haven’t paid any attention to any newer launchers.

officermike,

It’s still there, and not because my phone is slow - even a brand new Pixel with no apps or Google account has this delay. It takes nearly 2 seconds to go home - long enough to make me question if I hit the home button.

Pixel 6 Pro, in use since release… I don’t have any noticeable delay. Pressing the home button (I have 3-button navigation instead of gestures), the transition from foreground app to Nova home screen I’d estimate to be under 1/4 second. Feels pretty instantaneous.

officermike,

I wasn’t aware of swipe down. Not sure if it was added later or I just missed it.

officermike,

That tactic is more viable for defending areas you’re stuck at for a while. Civilian extraction, landing zone defense, missile silo, etc.

officermike,

It has Fiat Multipla vibes, but on the back instead of the front.

Fiat Multipla

officermike,

My guess:

Non-alcoholic

Beer is here.

Keep cold.

Enjoy fresh.

officermike,

Currently have a ban after 15 weeks since last menstruation began.

officermike,

Non-ferrous metals are still subjected to forces in the presence of changing magnetic fields through a combination of Lenz’s Law and the Lorentz Force.

It’s why when you drop a magnet through a copper pipe it falls slower than it would in open air.

officermike,

For home automation needs, Home Assistant may be of interest to you.

officermike,

I mean technically 16 is a round number, but it’s also a square which makes it sound less round and more pointy.

officermike,

Looks like blister packs of medication to me.
