On both the Android and iOS stock keyboards, you can just hold the hyphen key to get other dashes, too. You don’t need to go hunting for it.

ACABC, thus ACABCadabra alakazam.
Totally agree – that’s why I park my truck in the right lane of the three-lane highway near my office. The traffic still has two lanes to use, it’s plenty of space.
My neighbors in my apartment block have been complaining that I’ve filled one of the elevators with storage crates, too, but there’s another elevator and a set of stairs, so I don’t know what’s got them so upset.
It’s a reflection of the podium and stage:

Indeed, here’s Genesis 9:3, right after the Quite Big Flood:
Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•18 speed cameras just went up in Oakland, California. The cameras will ticket drivers that exceed the speed limit by 11 miles an hour or more.English
2·8 days agoLikewise in the UK. I’m less sure about the efficacy and ethics of speeding fines than many people in this community – not to say they shouldn’t exist, just that I’ve seen plenty unreasonably low restrictions in places where there’s no heightened risk to the public, and that I’m not convinced that motorway/interstate restrictions are useful to the degree they’re enforced – but having the registered owner take the risk if the driver doesn’t own up seems entirely reasonable.
Foddy’s most recent game, Baby Steps, is getting good reviews. I’ve not played it myself, but it’s a 3D game in the same genre; you’re a very unfit basement-dwelling 30-something who gets teleported (in your onesie) to the wilderness, and you’re trying to manage your balance as you make your way to a mountain.

AssholeDesign@lemmy.world•They "cannot guarantee" the product description of the 1.3k dollar laptop theyre selling is accurate because they used chatgpt to write itEnglish
7·11 days agoThat does seem to be the case - it’s specifically Best Buy and they seem to have fed the spec sheet into an LLM to generate a description.
My parents were walking near the Balmoral estate years ago and an old lady gave them a wave as they stood on the verge to let her pass in her Land Rover. They gave a cheery wave back.
They realised a little later that it was the Queen.

HistoryPhotos@piefed.social•The great Boston molasses flood of January 15th 1919. A storage tank burst from the rising temperature, creating a wave of molasses travelling 35 mph, killing 21 people and injuring 150 (colorized)
4·12 days agoThe photo was taken by a Boston Globe photographer on 15th January 1919 and has been archived by the Boston Public Library. The title of this post does mention it’s been colorized.
That said, autochrome photographic equipment was commercially available from around 1907 – though it was very expensive.
There’s been listeria outbreaks on waffles the past two years.

There’s a non-obvious freeze function in the Task Manager - for as long as you hold the Ctrl key, it’ll stop updating the list. I have no idea why this functionality is hidden, but I guess Dave Plummer had some unusual ideas about UX.

politics @lemmy.world•Joe Rogan criticizes ICE tactics: 'Are we really going to be the Gestapo?'
3·13 days agoFor sure, but when he says the right things to disillusion a fraction of the supporter base, let’s recognize that even if he is a part of the problem.
White Ninja is a blast from the past! I’m sure I had a bunch of favorites, but this one jumps out at me:

Programming@programming.dev•Welcome Dan Williams, new LibreOffice Developer focusing on UI/UX 🥳
7·16 days agoWhen you install LibreOffice now, the set-up guide encourages you gently to use the newer, friendlier tabbed interface. I don’t know if the same is true for in-place updates.





















Assuming the power point hasn’t moved or changed size, and the viewport hasn’t moved, the left plant has actually backed off (and the window’s moved, too).
