  yes, there are “characters” from linux universe (like bsd puffer fish, or krita female something, goat (fsf) and more))

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I played super tux kart (or any kind of cart racing game for that matter) and had a great time

  SO we atleast got the “IND” part common.

  I have almost never checked any other user’s profile. SOmehow feels creepy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp is officially getting ads⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I said India, because I am an Indian, and our government also does use whatsapp. In some way, our countries have some kinship

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search engine or not⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That would be great. I did hear the news of their joint venture, but have not heard anything since. If anything comes out of this, that would be great

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search engine or not⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  what does that mean

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search engine or not⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  fair point, you currently have to compromise on either “ethics” (a bit stronger word than I would like to use) or result quality. My only try is to promote independent engines in hope to improve them such that market gets more competitive

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search engine or not⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I can only suggest you to try the engines in the linked article, maybe something serves your wants better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search engine or not⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  i have tried them, but can not use them as first either. but it is fun to sometimes search stuff on it and it goes off the rails

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search engine or not⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  thanks, fixed

  considering it is made by sigma aldrich, atleast a 10x markup plus your first born child

  that explains it

  lemmings.world or pifed.social both are general purpose, and relatively small

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Material scientist wet dream⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  most solids and liquids are practically incompressible (when comparing with gasses). there is a relationship between bulk compressibility, shear stress and youngs modulus for solids, which can be extended for liquids. It does not work for gasses

  you are not adding enough water, add more

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Piss off!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  how are we quantising water shape (droplet vs jet)? Is it amount of pee generated/unit amount of time or something similar?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you put a ship inside a Klein bottle?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  by a very specific definition of “inside”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are roundabouts made?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well it depnds on what amount of cost you want to put in, and how are you making the roundabout, and are you going to put something on it, and essentially wht budgets you have. Where I live, we almost always have some statues or soemthing put on them.

  They are made with essentially make shift compasses where I live. This is what is done for a roundabout of radius, lets say in ball park of 5-10 m. Initially marking is done (this is simply done by measuring out a tape of desired radius, and holding wwhen end at center, and other person revolvinng around it, and laying down something - could be simple as white chalk, or use jackhammer to make actual indents to ground, or lay down some bricks) This will serve as guide for curve, and any further curved elements could be made by just maintaining a constant distance from this circumference. Then the interior is usually dug to lay a foundation for whatever you put on it (could be as simple as excavating, and just plastering, but that is still expensive, often manually digging and then laying a firm dirt layer is enough). then it is covered with something (could be custom designed pizza slice shaped stone or marble wedges, but usually just bricks or cinderblocks). While making, we do not really make a great curved edge, and just make a n-gon, where n can be 20 or 50 or 100. This is simpler because straight edged bricks are cheaps, and you can lay them vertical, filling the gaps with plaster. The depending on your budget, you could get great finishing, again done with applying plaster, but this time, excess is applied, and some is removed, so we get a curved edge. Now you mostly have the exterior ready. On the top, you could have marble or stone, which can be grinded to match the curved edge, or it could be a thin plaster layer, which will take the shape of boundary.

  i am not sure, but what i think i read somewhere is “ren” (as in pa"ren"t), so you would go like my ren dropped me to school or something.

  I am a mod, recieved such messages, and have reverted decisions. Often jsut knowing the person on other side is a human person, with some senses, gives you enough confidence to unban

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4 fundamental forces⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  maybe it is because being so weak, it allows things to be come together, and eventually be strong enough, by power of family.

  thank you, but what was the most amazing thing for me is a 5 year old post on lemmy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK you can use custom keyboard symbols(keys), so you can easily enter symbols like αβγδ, or swap : -> ; and ; -> :⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  sorry i am unware of it. I looked up, and from github page they are are remapper. They are great too, but they are a additional thing to install and run. For layers, you can already use keyboard shortcut to switch between predefined layouts in most setups, but thanks

  I don’t know what is concerning, me knowing how to read this, or being able to read this even when I am not from a sms generation (not that i am very youung, but where i live, sms was very expensive, so many people did not message untill we had internet based messengers)

  nobody said it has to be a 16h flight, it could be a picnic or camping, at a place which is a 2-3 hours walk, or 1 hr drive

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Absolutely true!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am sorry for your experiences, but my mother would differ. I know we (my sibling) were a pain in my parents’ ass, but our journeys are one of her most cherrished memories. I understand as parent it is not as stress free , you have to worry about safety and comfort of children, many times above your own, but I think that is a part of parents life, they have to bear this pain, but some parents also consider this not a pain, but cherrish this, they enjoy the cute moments.
