  • Proposal: have a shorter way to write "global time" (or you could have, say, 4 quarter-global times), the same way we have C, F and K for temperature, then make that a more common way of communicating time.

    Yeah UTC kinda does that but nobody uses it like that. Shorten it to U and it's much punchier. Also abolish daylight savings, too confusing.

    If you don't wanna bias to europeans too much, use the international date line.

  • Well, in the first bit of the Hitchhiker's guide, there's:

    “You’d better be prepared for the jump into hyperspace. It’s unpleasantly like being drunk.”

    “What’s so unpleasant about being drunk?”

    “You ask a glass of water.”

    Which does fit, even if it's not necessarily a "well-known phrase"

  • Indeed

  • Weird flirting would have been my guess

    Or even just a bad attempt at small talk

  • They can, but it's not trivial. The challenge uses a bunch of modern browser features that these scrapers don't use, regarding metadata and compression and a few other things. Things that are annoying to implement and not worth the effort. Check the recent discussion on lobste.rs if you're interested in the exact details.

  • I'm gonna clean my room up and get a (feminine! Yay!) Haircut

    I also wanna go out at some point during this week, socialize with people I don't know yet

  • They're trying to block adblockers again, it seems. I got the "adblockers are not allowed" popup again recently.

  • Do it

  • I did the same, but I had to filter a lot more because I needed a name with variants in several languages. Ended up with 3 to vote on, and same, clear winner

  • It's anarchy for the hierarchies, not for the components of the hierarchies

  • Fair enough! The disadvantage is that, as opposed to Dropbox and similar, I have go into a file at the root of the synced folder, rather than keeping that config near to where itcs relevant.

    Thanks for the names!

  • That's... a very good idea. I should do that anyway.

    Forgejo for projects and syncthing for data is probably perfect, thank you!

  • I tried with both, but I didn't figure out how if such an option exists. I did manage to do the opposite (keeping files uploaded but not having them locally), both with and without VFS (with VFS it's in a context menu in nautilus, without it's in the desktop app).

  • it does! I use it to sync my music, but I feel like it's not the right tool for the job here.

    I don't want to "have the folders connected", I want to have the ability to sync files easily, while excluding specific folders and files.

  • I have. It hasn't worked very well for me, the docs weren't great (though I'm looking at them now and they do seem better?) and it broke in strange ways.

  • So... databases? Especially in data centers? Still a nice boost in that case

  • Somebody added that 80th title and still decided against just making it a free text field

  • Messages from my friends are the one kind of message I don't do this on, because I'm way too online and also doing anything mean to my friends makes me feel way too guilty (and I mostly fuel my motivation through guilt and fear of failure)

  • Ugh, my mistake. Meant to reply to https://lemmy.world/comment/14575527 this comment. I was having internet troubles, so I had to try multiple times and musta clicked on the wrong comment at some point.

  • On the second point... I remember when moss had to make one, because of exactly that issue.

    He should have told you that, it really isn't a new thing. It's also not an Ada thing, it's not her fault and it's really not unreasonable to expect mods to... actually be able to read all reports.
