All the tales of Eden have been told by those who stayed till the fall

Calculators, Editors, Call Apps, Population simulators, map projection programs, paid newspapers, offline sea maps.

That’s the ones I can think of right now

lemmy get this straight, you think it would somehow have been better for him, instead of Putin, to control Russia? Or am I reading this wrong?

I remember this from reddit, but on there it was because some bot messed up and started posting conversations that didn’t make any sense

On mobile I mean, I don’t really use desktop computers all that much. I fully agree that libre is better than ms office on pc

Regarding your username, if you log into lemmy with normal characters, does it let you or do you have to use the emoji letters every time?

thing is, for my dialect of German, autocorrect is less than useful, so for me, typing Bavarian on a phone keyboard is certainly the fastest at around 150 wpm, trumping english or german on any other board, probably because it exactly matches the way I speak and I’ve been doing it for 13 years

“How do I best consume pirated content?”

“Buy this piece of tech that was specifically made to pay a company to stream specific paid services”

ironic

capitalism is a worldwide system, europeans are no more safe from it than americans or afticans, we need to overthrow it everywhere

A wireless showerhead is clearly impossible… if you don’t have a machine that works on very little energy and somehow was able to store enough hydrogen while also sucking in oxygen to make water

Say we had technology so efficient to make thus process possible, to make 1 liter of water (1 kg) you just need 1/9 of a kg of hydrogen, so if your showehead stored 1 kg of hydrogen in an extremely enclosed space, you could "pull 9 liters of water out of the air

Even if this device was possible, it would be extremely impractical, and would probably suffocate you by sucking all the o2 out of the air if you are in an enclosed space

Ibwas about to dislike (not downvote) this one, but after a second of thought, this is great. Because it doesn’t make practical sense, but at least isn’t something based in a fault of understanding of the real world, so good job

bitsearch works

How can you tell? I can imagine that sync would have actually done much of this

I am a very active commenter on reddit, and right now, sync for lemmy hust feels like reddit because it’s pretty much the same. I couldn’t really tell you, but it would make sense that many people now have a design they were accustomed to before.

But if this increase was mostly from sync, that would mean that an average sync user would have had to comment 100-200 comments every day since then, because it has just 10k downloads on google play, which probably is the major source for most of those, so you might be right

They make their own alcohol, duh

My family went to iceland 3 years ago and most of the friends they made in the countryside had selfmade hard liquor

Reddit exists to make money, so they definitely won

I don’t know why people like you and me initially think it’s spelled “Jeb-ora” when it’s actually “Jer-boa”

linku.la is also an amazing dictionary for all the less common words, check it out!

mi sona e toki pona lon jan pona

But after a year of not speaking it I’m very rusty, and the fact that I’ve been learning madarin doesn’t help, because I think I’m transposing chinese grammar onto toki pona

No, Trump is the hail mary of the US ruling class. They are scared that the people just start ignoring the government and take power, so they give them demagogues
