- Comment on After 40 years of being free Microsoft has added a paywall to Notepad 1 week ago:
Notepad has long been a testbed for new technology in Windows. This isn’t just a sign of enshittification, it’s a warning that they want to do more.

Well yeah, they hadn’t managed to get past bananas in their self defense classes.

- Comment on Good morning I choose creativity and recycling. 3 weeks ago:
Given that this is changing the product itself, it’s more repurposing than reusing, which I’d say fits between reuse and recycle.
- Comment on Framework ships RISC-V board for its 13" laptops along with "boardless" laptop chassis. 3 weeks ago:
If someone who makes ARM hardware wants to make a mainboard, I’d imagine Framework will work with them under the same conditions they’re working with DeepComputing on the RISC-V one.

Somewhat relevant to your example, recipes should have numbers in digits too. (But then again recipes are basically an engineering text.)
- Comment on Uninstalled Copilot? Microsoft will let you reprogram your keyboard’s Copilot key 4 months ago:
So you know the built-in keyboard shortcut on Windows that opens LinkedIn? (IIRC it’s Ctrl+Alt+Win+Shift+L)
That’s because Microsoft sold keyboards for a while with “Office keys,” so you could hit Office+W for Word, Office+X for Excel, etc. All that key would do is send all those modifiers. There are plenty of unused modifier key codes they could use instead, but they did this.
I’m guessing this key works the same.

All I care to know is what code it sends to the machine so I can submit a merge to Plasma to default that key to opening krunner.

- Comment on What? 4 months ago:
“Birds fly south for the winter” was the second example I remember of my classmates having only learned things with northern hemisphere bias after moving to the northern hemisphere.
The first was my classmates not grasping that while it was spring here, it was autumn back home.

- Comment on 16GB of RAM Could Be the New Minimum in Apple's Upcoming M4 Macs 5 months ago:
For me in particular I’m a software developer who works on developer tools, so I have a lot of tests running in VMs so I can test on different operating systems. I just finished running a test suite that used up over 50 gigs of RAM
