Gah! A bit too much for me, but if you want contrast it’s certainly got it.

I want contrast

Sure, but you can also have contrast with a dark background that isn’t constantly shooting a third of the photons your screen can generate (or more, since in some screens blue pixels are the largest), and the most energetic at that, at your eyes… high contrast themes tend to have a black background (not a gray one like most dark themes) precisely as a way to maximise contrast…

(It was even worse when we sat all day in front of a fucking particle accelerator, of course; frankly, as much as I loved CRTs’ ability to work with multiple resolutions I don’t know how we didn’t all end up going blind…)

Nostalgically atrocious.

Aside from racism.

No such thing. It’s racism all the way down, no matter what colour they try to paint it.

You might not like it, but Borland yellow on blue was peak IDE design.

Personally, I have downloaded Borland themes for all my IDEs. I don’t use them, of course, because I’m not entirely insane and I value my eyesight too much, but I have downloaded them.

Personally I’m more of a leg guy 🤷‍♂️.

And I don’t particularly like overly large breasts, which lots of people seem to enjoy. A handful is fine, thank you very much.

I just ask them to please do anything they can to fix whatever my hair is doing, inasmuch as possible, and to remove as much volume as they can without it getting out of control (too long, and it’s a chaotic uncontrollable mess; too short and it’s also a chaotic uncontrollable mess; these two states sometimes overlap… but I don’t want to shave the whole damn thing).

It usually works for a week or two until it starts getting long enough to start getting completely out of control again.

Dunno if you’re joking? (…) Oysters are indeed shellfish.

Hey, when barnacles are apparently friggin’ crustaceans, it’s sort of a fair question, I’d say.

Sea critters are weird.

No, no, that’s pills (unless they make you small; or your mother gave you them, in which case they don’t do anything at all).

Nah. Frieren’s appearance and behaviour are straight from the manga, which isn’t that kind of book (seriously, the author just wanted to write about an unassuming elf John Wicking demons and accidentally turned it into a great story about death, and friendship, and whatnot) and only ever uses raunchiness in humorous contexts (the clothes dissolving potion, Flamme’s “secret seduction technique”, Fern constantly considering everyone a pervert, and so on).

This isn’t Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid (though that also accidentally turned out deeper than what it was supposed to be, which in that case was smut).

What Madhouse clearly are into in any case is feet (seriously, this show looks like a Tarantino film at times). Serie’s, especially. And Übel’s armpits, for some reason. Both of those are much more present in the anime than the books (also, excellent animation, like the fights or the dance scene, which in the books are usually just a couple panels; that’s probably not a fetish, though).

And Fern acts as a mother to her in the mornings, and when she’s shopping / scavenging. It’s a bit mutual, at this point.

(Though, yeah, I’m fairly certain that Frieren’s childish behaviour is almost entirely intentional on her part, and that she can turn it off and act like an adult when she wants to, which admittedly isn’t very often; she might also be a bit feral from all the time she lived alone in the woods.)

AFAIK you would not have had to open the .lnk file yourself.

Wait, what? A .lnk file is a shortcut… you still have to click those for them to open whatever they’re pointing to.

Unhiding extensions wouldn’t help here, as the .lnk extension is hidden even if you unhide the others, as it’s the extension for shortcut files; you have to edit an obscure registry key if you want to unhide it.

(That said, it being a shortcut it should have the small shortcut arrow in the icon, unless you’ve used a third party tool or the registry to disable it, so it should still be easily recognisable as a shortcut.)

No it’s not.

One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred squats, and a ten kilometre run, every single day.

Also, never, ever use the air conditioning in the summer or heat in the winter, to strengthen the mind.

And of course, eat three meals daily, but just a banana in the morning is fine.

Eventually you’ll go bald, and become fast enough to be able to, while standing with your back to a mirror, turn around and see the back of your head.

Very disco, though, the way it happened.

When one instance enshittifies itself you can just block it.

Also, no greedy little pigboy Spez.

I also pay Prime for the delivery (it’s a cheap annual payment around these parts).

I also still torrent Prime shows, not out of instinct, but because it’s more convenient and less of a hassle, I get them in higher quality, and I can archive them for later.

A proper engineer would make the tag absorbent and use the principle of capillarity to transfer the water to the bag (and the other way round once tea flavoured) to cover this case.

Users can’t avoid being stupid, but a proper engineer should be able to cover all cases.
