If yours got converted, then the server you're using, doesn't support drag and drop gifs.
Instead of drag and drop, upload the gif to some other server, that allows such stuff and use that link in the ![alt_text_here](image-url) format as given by @Riccosuave.

For instance, the above comment has its GIF stored on tenor.com, which is less probably the default provider (for when you drag and drop) given by lemmy.world

Are you rustling a single leaf, for it to be less than a library?
Or does the library have a windy exterior full of trees with rustling leaves, for it to be at 40?

Maybe it depends upon the person.
I have difficulty programming properly while listening to music so maybe I'd find it hard to do so with alcohol too.

In my case, it's probably because I tend to keep as much of the context as possible into my current memory, which gets reduced if I'm distracted by sounds (whether music or noise). The ADHD Relief music tracks tend to work well though, since they aren't very distracting and help get rid of other peoples' noise.

I don't see an ad in my graphics driver. Even update notifications are optional.
When I open steam, it is because I'm thinking of gaming and most often, I'm hoping for a game deal popup.

Though, I'd love to not require opening Steam when I just want to play a game.
And that's why I'm willing to forego regional pricing and pay almost 4x for GoG games, at least for games I feel like I will be playing for a long time.

When you choose a distro, you generally choose to follow what the maintainers give you as the "latest".
Or you get snap/flatpak/AppImage.

I, personally, would go with AppImage, probably because I once made some myself and liked them.

By the time you reach writing 4 words on Windows, you''l have enough mental exhaustion for it to be equivalent to a short story.

Arch is the easy way, when you compare it to Debian Sid.

It probably has to do with some of the engineering problems with containing hydrogen.
It definitely has a lot to do with influential people bandwagoning onto Elon Musk et al. trashing EVs

@ulterno@lemmy.kde.social avatar

Do you think...

No I'm not thinking about that.
I'm just trying to reason between public sentiment and over here, trying to say that public sentiment has less to do with actual technical viability and more to do with random comments from influential people.

There are actually, many directions in which people are trying to find ways to make the H2 storage viable for specific applications..

After having to use Ubuntu at work for > 1 year, I find it hard to endure. But of course, maybe it was just the computers being slow, except for Debian KDE working perfectly well on them.

XCOM2: War of The Chosen.

Forgot to add the name in the title since I first posted in the XCOM2 sub. 😜

I don't get this part.
How come they explicitly state the European Economic Area, while at the same time, it doesn't apply there?

Or do the European Economic Area and EU refer to different things?


Or is it that they thought the user will not care to check in case they have a problem big enough to seek legal aid?

ulterno OP ,
@ulterno@lemmy.kde.social avatar

Ah you're right. Rereading it fixed the doubt. Guess I skipped a few words the first time.
Mental note to not skip words in a legal document. Or any written document.

You can just decline and play without some multiplayer features.

Though, in my case, it crashed on game start, probably due to unrelated reasons (I'm on linux).

But I think loading a previous version is also an option (as I read somewhere). Never tried though.

Thanks for the constructive criticism.

alt text for these non mobile friendly pictures

Yeah, I miserably failed at that part. Tried to add the alt text, but looks like I did it the wrong way so it didn't work.

mention what you actually are trying to say or ask

Just wanting to let people know about another instance of Mandatory Arbitration. After hitting Post, I did realise that I should have included the game's name, which I missed because I first posted this to an XCOM2 sub.

US citizens are being asked to waive their rights to class actions or any form

You don't need to be in the US for that.
I am not.

I fail to understand why they feel the need to do this, considering people are not just suing these companies willy-nilly.

But if you look closely, they don't mention anywhere that this Mandate is only with regards to this specific product (XCOM2 in this case), which makes me think, all of these companies are planning to do some problematic thing separately and then use this to escape the consequences.

ulterno OP ,
@ulterno@lemmy.kde.social avatar

It's also illegal (in writing) to have a random sticker on a screw of an appliance, stating "Warranty void if removed".
Doesn't stop anyone from using it to escape warrantying user stuff, simply because it is not enforced well enough.

ulterno ,
@ulterno@lemmy.kde.social avatar

On the contrary, it (the website) looks really nice.

The product, on the other hand, seems targeted towards "normies" and would probably do better in a place that doesn't have ppl already self hosting their stuff.

ulterno ,
@ulterno@lemmy.kde.social avatar

The name "Solarized" suggests otherwise.

Hernia is also a possibility.

But you have to be pressing really hard and have other problems in connective tissue to have that.

It's just an overly positive way of saying, "If you don't get good grades in uni, many HRs will de-list you before looking at your resume".

its not the same as an eSim or sim card

I think you have part of your answer.
Get a laptop with a SIM Card reader, and do what you may.

The reason it doesn't work with IP is because, it started out with local networks and was expanded from that.
A domain name is similar to a phone number, just that the user has the IP routing information available, whereas in case of phone connection, a probably similar system for routing is all abstracted by cell exchanges.

P.S. Thanks for the food for thought.

One of my previous employers once told me (abridged)

It's not like old times when we could slowly work to get a perfect result.
Nowadays, we need perfect results, fast.

They were asking me to do technical content writing for their website.
I quickly realised that it's actually the threshold for calling something "perfect", that has lowered over time.

Clearly, I was not fit for that work, because instead of just plagiarising and paraphrasing stuff from other websites, I insisted on reading up on material from multiple sources, understanding it well and then writing it down myself. That makes it pretty slow.

That was a year before ChatGPT, or I would just have used that thingy.

People do the designing and architecture and programming just because it all pays well, not because they have a love for the craft.

True.
I like programming and tend to pride myself in making good code, but when I see other's attitude at work, it makes me reevaluate what I care about.

Perhaps this is the reason of the memetic difference between corporate code quality vs OSS code quality. When I contribute to Open Source (at least to other's projects), I see myself try to be as considerate as possible of multiple factors that I wouldn't even care of at work.

#: I'm just going to write some memos in WPS Office and send it to the networked ftp server running on Binbos.
Oh and while I'm at it, I'll just ssh into a few other computers as root, using Nautilus (as root of course) and keep them all open until I shutdown, just because I want to copy their docx files.
