ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If your happiness is derived from your enjoyment of a false (i.e. fictional) stories, is that truely happiness, or is that technically a delusion?English19·1 month agoIt’s not even necessarily a delusion. You can be aware that something is fiction and still enjoy it.

ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto Tech@programming.dev•AI is killing the web. Can anything save it?English3·2 months agoUsing the web before search engines were really a thing was way more wholesome, following interesting links and stumbling upon wonderful sites (and awful ones too of course). It was based on trust in which site was pointing you where.
Then along came Google and others who supplanted those trusted links and now they are reaping the whirlwind. I’m hoping we go back to curating our own strange collections of web gems.
ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can you see magic eye pictures?English7·2 months agoYep.
If you can do it, you can sometimes use that skill to quickly compare whether two adjacent vertical images are identical. If they are, you will just see a single version of the image as normal. If they are different, you will easily see a ‘fuzzy’ part of the image that won’t resolve and stay still (hard to describe, it’s like when I try to read text in a dream).
A practical application I use now and then is when I want to compare two columns of data on a screen. Use the magic eye technique to overlap the columns and any differences will be immediately obvious, even with a lot of data.

ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto homeassistant@lemmy.world•IKEA moves to Thread (and away from Zigbee)English3·2 months agoMy favourite thing about these non-wifi wireless protocols is that devices using them seem to want cloud connectivity a lot less than those that come with wifi.
ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Bazzite gets a new app store, newly supported devices, improved WiFi and moreEnglish2·2 months agoMaybe the same issue that Silverblue has with the Firefox from the Fedora repo. The Flathub repo Firefox has the non-free codecs in it.
ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto ADHD memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com•You know you're going too far when you're using square bracketsEnglish25·2 months agoAdding and removing parenthetical clauses from my email until they all suddenly resolve, collapsing to nothing and I am left with an empty email. “Brilliant!” I think, and close Outlook, having solved my own problem.
ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto ADHD memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com•You know you're going too far when you're using square bracketsEnglish3·2 months agoWhy haven’t I finished that task from eight weeks ago? I can’t tell you, or it will get even later.

ddh@lemmy.sdf.orgto Programming@programming.dev•Writing Code Was Never The BottleneckEnglish3·3 months agoI’m the last of the original developers of a particular system and now it’s my turn for management to move me on. There’s a new person and they are being instructed to use AI to work on it. It’s like moving the system to hospice care, looked after by the janitor with an Alexa until the lights go out.
If you’re using Chrome, hell, go ahead and change that too.
