As much as I dislike about Discord, I can’t deny that its level of service, polish and ease of use are just superb. Especially for voice chat with friends with integrated screen sharing that just works.

There are show stoppers sometimes - occasionally messages just don’t get sent or received for whatever reason, and Discord’s handling of it is just bad. It’s pretty important for a chat app to work reliably for chat. But when it works (which is almost always), boy is it nice.

Haven’t tried Revolt and I likely can’t because of the network effect already mentioned by someone else. How does it compare in ease of use, ease of setting up, feature set for free users, etc.?

I’m always amused by the accurate double meaning of POS.

I agree, Fish and Cushion are where it’s at. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S0ndZt4R_w

The clickbait works… what does this article claim is one of the most annoying things? I must know!

Ah yes, of course

Forgive my ignorance, but what is that? A goat? What’s the homonym?

If it’s a visual novel or heavily menu- or dialog-based, there really isn’t anything more to show usually.

isn’t the last line 6 syllables? “Ruins” is two.

Having used KeePass for a few years, syncing via a self-hosted SFTP server, I can’t recommend it for most people.

• It’s too technical, especially if you want sync, but even if you don’t
• Apps on different platforms don’t quite agree with each other in all ways, making syncing a bit annoying (particularly: how to associate a login with multiple URLs)
• It can be hard to pick which app to use on each platform, other than Windows, because there’s no official/canonical best option (Mono has lots of drawbacks)

I’ve switched to Bitwarden and I’m sticking with it.

My bet is on Musk taking Trump’s place.

Nearly all existing media (radio, songs, TV, movies, YouTube videos, …) will eventually lose its appeal, as (for new born people at least) it will effectively be in a foreign language, that uses a completely separate mode of communication. You can’t share Back to the Future with anyone new anymore.

But all of Star Wars gets a remaster with a CGI light-speech dub.

Huh. I think it was just the web version of Lemmy. Weird choice by the Lemmy devs.

Correct - even if you include the (necessary) option of making up your own answer. If you pick a percentage at random, you have a 0% chance of picking 0%.

You had to show off, huh

Relevant Tom Scott video

There’s a falafel place that closes at around 13:00 every day and doesn’t seem to really care all that much if you pay or not. I can’t imagine it not being a money laundering scheme.

They make great falafel though!

Is this even true? I am fairly sure that Linux also has a graceful shutdown process, but I’ll admit I haven’t looked into it.

I think it’s funny for the exact same reason that this xkcd is funny: https://xkcd.com/1168/

Why does the majority of your post read like you don’t know these exist? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coaxial_power_connector

They’re fine, but as you mentioned in the first paragraph, lack of a standard is their main drawback. You could find two power supplies with the exact same connector but different voltage and polarity.

Surely health insurance would be making a loss on this particular person.
