Sorry about the surprise prussians. I was never any good at typing on glass, I much prefer an actual keyboard.
Am definitely human.

Dune II - basically the grandfather of every RTS game out there (and incidentally very, very different from Dune I): opposing forces, resource collection, tech tree, fog of war, et cetera. Or perhaps it was (not World of) Warcraft, it’s been too long and memory gets fuzzy.
Well then it’s good there are so many curves here…?
Keep in mind, your voice sounds quite different to others than it does to you (because of conductance within your skull). So, unless you have a same-sex twin, would you even recognise the voice as your own?
That must be a first. At least, I’ve never before heard of a seal on an airplane…
I’m glad you ask about things you don’t know. You’re a smart person.
A dead name is a person’s given name, in the context of a person having transitioned to a different gender and also changing their name to match the gender they identify as. It is bad form to then continue to call them by their birth name.
On my old android phone, I have a beautiful 24 hour clock (app and widget) which is unfortunately no longer available in the play store.
Just saying, it exists if you know how to look for it. It was named, believe it or not, “24 Analog Clock Widget”.
I carry some because it’s no longer a thing. My card has only the information that I know will not change: my name, email address, and mobile phone number. On the back there’s a QR code (which contrasts the otherwise vintage look).
I hand out perhaps one per month so not super often, and many times the most appropriate thing to do is to simply tell people my phone number. But sometimes, especially when we’re in a situation where phones are not nearby, it’s quite effective to hand over a pre-made card with that info.
The average reaction is “Oh, cool” so even if they toss it once they’ve copied the info (which, tbh, is my expectation) it will still have made the exchange slightly out of the ordinary.
Plus, sometimes they’re useful to stop a table from rattling, or leave a message for someone who’s not currently present, and so on.
The article describes this as"prop money", but doesn’t give further details.
If you’re curious, Adam Savage has a number of videos from Hays Press explaining actual prop money.

It is working!!!
Yes, I’ve been on Norwegian Dvorak since 2002 or so.
Biggest problem I’ve had is with keyboards and OS’es (cough 🍎) that don’t support the Insert key, because (a) I cut my teeth on the DOS editor and (b) XCV are all over the place on this layout.
I will always use a proper full size keyboard if at all possible. Those 60% and whatnot are not for me (it’s bad enough when they move the arrow keys).
Oh, and the languages insisting on ${} characters are a pain on any non US layout.
Correct, it is not.
I’ve been extremely fond of “Our Groceries” for many years. It strikes a sweet spot between features and simplicity of use, and the devs are very responsive and have added several features after my suggestions. Really the only downside right now is that it can’t use the front facing camera on my wall mounted android tablet for scanning barcodes.
Preface: I know nothing about weapons except “point sharp end away from self”.
The article has a video. The video shows drones dropping hand grenades at the jammers. The grenades go off (in a spectacularly disappointing fashion compared to what’s depicted in movies, but that’s beside the point) but don’t seem to damage the jammers in any meaningful way. So, do the videos in fact show effective destruction even if it doesn’t look like it?
Post script: I am not a Russian troll. Long live Ukraine! 🇺🇦🖖😎 I am merely not understanding the videos very well.
For added fun, macs use CR.
This used to be true, for sure, but I thought this changed with OS X (which is essentially PrettyBSD) ?
So you are the one who killed YouTube.
Never let it be said that a single person can’t make a mark on this world.
😉 No really, I just wish you success with your endeavour.
Good bot.
I am so happy to see some of the useful bots make a reappearance here. And you got yourself quite the nifty name, too.
I am amazed that anyone can browse the web or watch YouTube without ad blocking.
Right? It’s so good to know there are still other reasonably people out there.
Whenever I see someone (nearly anyone) else’s phone or pc being absolutely inundated with ads I can’t help but wonder if they’re allright in the head. There are so many mobile games that I never knew were ad-ridden until I saw them on someone else’s screen … eg. Wordfeud, there’s apparently a video ad playing each time you submit a word. Wtaf…
Are they evil attack squirrels of death? If so, one should be plenty.
