  • It's satellite imagery, yes, but from an oblique (high off-nadir) angle. The imagery is from DigitalGlobe, who are now Maxar.

  • It's Maxar satellite imagery with a high off-nadir angle. European Space Imaging use it as an example in this article about ONA.

  • And by extension, Yule and Christmas, Ēosturmōnaþ and Easter, Samhain and Hallowe'en.

  • Sorry, we've already assigned you the role of eggman.

  • I just flicked through a full month of their posts on Bluesky, assuming I'd find some that could plausibly be seen as harassment. I found nothing other than spotlighting of public representatives who have accepted Israeli lobby money, presented factually; the rest is pretty much all endorsements of alternative US governmental candidates.

    Could you spotlight a few posts that demonstrate what you're saying?

  • First archive of the page:

    Respect

    In the old days of feudal Japan, a samurai warrior would shout "Mi no hodo o shire!", 'Know your place!' at anyone who dared to show insufficient respect. And with that, a sword would be brought swiftly down upon the poor unfortunate's head. Well, you might not have to fear a sword any more but it would still be wise to always remember your place. Even if you don't have the language skills, a softening of the voice, a discreet awareness of the other person's personal space and undemonstrative body language go a long way showing respect.

    Later versions seem to have "身の程を知れ", but it looks like they changed the page a few times.

  • I think the difference is the perception of whether a piece of Lego is "a Lego"; in Europe, that's typically not the way the word is used.

    I started writing a rebuttal that amused me until I noticed I'd misread your comment, and I don't want to delete it, so despite being irrelevant to what you've said...

    How many super glues do you use for a repair? Do you play on an astroturfs field? Are people carrying maces in their bag for self-defence? Do you eat Jell-Os and burn kerosenes?

  • Bonus photos.

  • To the extent that it looks like they airbrushed it in afterwards.

  • The pun works verbally if a werewolf (literally "man-wolf") is understood to be a hybrid of man and wolf during the full moon. Instead of changing form into a werewolf, he's changed form into a warehouse.

    Written down, if he turned into a half-man, half-house he'd be a werehouse, and if he turned into a half-man, half-warehouse he'd be a werewarehouse.

  • If you're using KDE, apparently changing your system application style might help - Breeze, for example, has an option for visible scroll arrows. Link.

    In any case, it's a GTK thing, not a LibreOffice thing.

  • This strikes me as an odd comment. Did you have a specific reason to expect that 26.2 would include this, such as an enhancement request that you'd logged (or had been following) via their community channels?

  • Also, I'm curious about the UI refinement.

    In the release notes you've linked, there's a heading called User Interface. It's a fair number of small QOL improvements.

  • a duckhead?

  • Is this not just AFU? If so, the effect for a physical user is the same (needs the passkey), but encryption keys are still loaded.
