beanson,

I need to add extra emphasis and repeat this. Yes it is.

His dad sends him to the shop to ask for red and white striped paint, which doesn’t really exist as the paint would mostly mix together in the tin and make some badly mixed pink paint. The employee in the shop sees this is a gag and asks a follow up question: would he like the paint to be striped vertically or horizontally? So they are on the way back and only *then the realisation dawns on them that this is a massive wind up, which sparks a rage large enough to break the door.

beanson,

Never meant to fail your test and cry.

beanson,

Yeah looks like most shared basements in my city. Every apartment has a private lock up like you can see on the right hand side in the image with the number 6 on it.

beanson,

I assumed that’s what it stood for because it was listed as hosting tech-focused communities.

beanson,

I always come back to this track, it’s got permanent residence in my brain since I first heard it in the early 00s.

beanson,

I made an account a long while ago when it was the only instance with any content but I’m just a lurker looking for memes and tech news. Feeling like I should change instance these days…

beanson,

Where I live people have mixed langauge conversations fairly regularly by mixing their native language with whatever they’re trying to learn - usually German or English, so that reaction is probably automatic.

beanson,

Yuuuuuh I was often confused about Eigenvectors and then watched their video on it and the visualisation of scaling just made everything so simple, I felt stupid for not getting it before.

beanson,

Have you tried any of the news sources that aim to aggregate and debias news stories?

Two that I use are:

Ground.news

ImproveTheNews

They provide summaries, and also a breakdown of different sources reporting the stories. I find them pretty interesting and useful.

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

beanson,

I use Ubuntu for work and have no issues with it to be honest. I install everything via apt, I think a few things are via snap but nothing that I’ve installed directly. It’s stable and I can get on with stuff. I definitely am not a fan of the move towards snap and the app store: if I was to choose I’d go vanilla Debian.

beanson,

Long time lurker here, 99% of the time I go to post a comment I delete it before posting like ah fuck it. I’m trying to engage a bit more now there are more users.

beanson,

Maybe whelmed is just the regular state of being: when expectations are lived up to, but not exceeded?

beanson,

I aim to whelm.

beanson,

I’m on Kbin but I’m not really sure what the future of the project holds, and the lack of an app (except as PWA) makes the experience less enjoyable than Lemmy IMO. Also on Discuit which is smaller and feels pretty organic and relaxed; I tend to engage more there.

beanson,

Obligatory switch from shapefile link.

Unfortunately Shapefile is a proprietary format developed by ESRI. QGIS handles it just fine though no problems.
