Alltså, du tar nog det lite för bokstavligt. Att de ska belöna dig är säljsnack. Om du inte hade varit kund sedan tidigare så är det ett välkomsterbjudande.

Sedan har det ju varit standard de senaste 30 åren eller så att man köper ett abonnemang med ny telefon rabatterat eller på köpet mot bindningstid på ett-två år. Jag vet inte hur du kunnat missa det.

“Do no harm to the stockholders” would be the contemporary take.

I haven’t looked at the Lemmy API, but generally speaking hard or not is subjective. Try it, get your hands dirty. Take a stab at testing how it works. Set some very basic targets. Split it up into tasks. If one task proves more complicated than expected, split it up into smaller tasks. If you get stuck, move to another task. You can always get back to those later. Things fall in place with experience.

I think the “people are free to believe what they want to believe” is a mistake. This is the very statement that relativitises opinions and belief systems with facts and creates the illusion that they are all equal.

Look at the “facts don’t care about feelings” crowd that believe wholeheartedly that statements pandering to their feelings are facts and disregard any actual facts as fake news. I don’t think it’s because they decided one day to pick and choose what is a fact and what is not, but they actually can’t tell that there is a difference in opinions, beliefs and facts in the first place.

People need to accept that sometimes the truth is painful, that it contradicts what you want it to be, and worst of all - that you may have been wrong.

Edit: that said, I think people are free to believe whatever they want to believe when it comes to unprovable existential esoterica like personal values, afterlife, religion, whatever. As long they accept it is a personal belief and not an universal truth.

Yes.

The right side.

Worth mentioning that it is not about football, it’s about the people in and around a football team. I have zero interest in football and Ted Lasso is one of my favourite shows.

That sounds fun. I don’t think it exist so you could create it.

Do that thing you want to do but keep pushing ahead because you don’t know if you’ll be able to do it in the future.

Speaking from experience. Illness is a bummer.

I wish I could teach myself first. If I do, I’ll get back to you.

It’s done by overriding the document.onrightclick and the selection start something function in the browser. Reset it and you’re done.

I know this because of a manufacturers website that does this. So incredibly annoying when the only reason anybody would want to copy from their webbo is for reference of their own products. In my case the product numbers to search for where to buy it.

Check out some exhibitions and pick up my new phone.

It’s pronounced “gif”

I had a first gen Xiaomi smart band thingy for this very reason that I put on my leg. Worked well enough unless I was exhausted or drunk but then nothing would anyway.

Change your password. Change all your important passwords.

Och inför maxålder för bilar! Less på att bli nästan överkörd av mumier som inte ens märker själva att de är en livsfara för andra.

When you leave the house and sense you left the stove on but you were actually sensing somebody else’s stove.

Pairing it with a low powered either mesh- or long range networking (like LoRa) will be great for monitoring whatever parameters in agriculture and nature, as mentioned in the article.

Not everything needs to end up in consumer devices to be groundbreaking (heh).

Överallt menar jag, så att det är standardiserat på samma sätt som med andra bokstäver, skiljetecken och symboler som används någorlunda frekvent.

Nu är du bara obstinat. För min del får du gärna installera din arch genom att knacka morse med mellanslagstangenten och ha gradtecknet kopplat till stickan du verkar ha i arslet. Det bekommer mig inte alls.

Men du, i min ungdom använde jag en del skrivmaskiner som var ännu äldre. Alltså, nyare än standardisering för QWERTY, men äldre än standardisering för ÅÄÖ och skiljetecken. Det var inte så spännande och innovativt som du verkar tro att sitta och leta efter tecken i ett när man inte hade något i muskelminnet. Försvaret hade för sin del sina egna tangentbord sorterade i bokstavsordning.

Om du skall följa dina egna ord så kan du ju börja förespråka den återgången. Börja med att sätta ihop ett script som slumpar ut nya tangentbordslayouter varje timme med varje tecken på en ny plats. Utvärdera erfarenheten i ett utförligt dokument. Sen kan vi prata om saken.
