  • Au contraire, I think they should be calling themselves DoW. No more "defence" BS. It is, and always has been, about war.

    Billions of your money? Yeah that's going to fund wars. War on the whole world, war on their own citizens, WAR!

  • If you're on windows, wget also works a treat. Mac too.

  • She usually does. But in this particular case:

    1. I couldn't find this colourised version on her Tumblr & Insta (only B&W).
    2. She has released a few special occasion colourised comics with no signature.

    So I really don't know what's happened here... I'm really hoping it's not an unsanctioned AI colouring job, but an unsigned colour release from her somewhere.

  • In kindergarten I was taught when reading the number 123, the lowest digit is on the right, and the highest on the left. Never questioned it either.

  • My guess? Data stolen by DOGE 🤷‍♂️

  • I had to scroll back cause I only got the joke about 10 seconds later.

    2 > 1

  • Haha I was fully expecting this comment when I wrote it. Hi fellow c/fuckcars lurker 👋🏽

  • I don't see any future for seatbelts, and forcing such an ugly implement in cars might lead to problems.

    Seatbelts will kill cars if it persists there long enough.

  • Every Chinese year happens every 60 years.

    12 animals x 5 elements

  • Not to mention the 2000s video game aesthetics, where everything is "gritty" and is a shade of brown & grey. The drabness never went away, they just changed media.

  • A Malaysian friend (interestingly in line with your stereotype there 🙃) said the Japanese were just the most helpful people.

    He would politely ask someone a question in English when he's lost. And they, in either broken or NO English at all, would nearly always try to help. Or at least go around helping him find someone else with functioning English.

    A gentleman in business suit looked at his watch, thought for five seconds, then spent 15 minutes showing him he's got the wrong ticket, helped him get the right ticket, and took him to the right platform. (This was a couple decades ago. I assume the tourist experience is more streamlined these days)

  • Personally, a few reasons.

    • I don't need to run 2 containers and >10GB. I could just install and run in 10 seconds.
    • My whole library and metadata is self contained in a single dir. On a fresh OS install I could simply point Calibre to the dir, and off we go.
    • A rich plugin ecosystem, including deDRM plugins.
    • I can just ignore the AI stuff (for now, at least)
    • I've used it for close to 2 decades. Familiarity is definitely a factor. And yes, it's still as ugly as it was 20 years ago. But once you've set your workflow up, the UI just kinda melds to the background.
  • It is one of the ugliest, most complex to configure, pieces of software I've ever used. It's also the best ebook management tool out there. I love Calibre.

  • I knew who it would be before opening the video. His whole thing is about making strange - and very often, unsafe - musical instruments. One of his early videos was replacing piano hammers with actual hammers.

    His spinning guitar is actually super cool though!

  • I'm halfway across the world and it's the same. Nobody signals their exit. I've learnt to watch the movement of their wheels to read their intent.

  • As a non American, what even is that first picture? Is that a common "design" (or lack thereof) in American towns?

  • It's a server setting. Their instance doesn't auto-upvote, and can't downvote.
