Still doesn’t help in finding where your cursor is currently.
Even worse when running multiple VMs.
Half a dozen blinking cursors, but only one of them is actually active… - Comment on What's your opinion on post-game content? do you do it? or are you done with the game when the credits roll? 2 weeks ago:
Currently playing Morrowind.
Had to even remind myself recently to do some main quest for a change.Completely and immersively lost myself in sidequests before. :-)
Sooo… post-game-content seems to be just game content here…
- Comment on When they play reruns of the News, it shouldn't be called News anymore, now it should be called Olds, or Old News for you purists out there.. 2 weeks ago:
Ok, when thinking way back, they might have done something similar here 30 years ago or so.
Don’t think it is a thing today anymore.
But I have not been watching linear TV since the mid-00s anymore though, so may be mistaken… - Comment on When they play reruns of the News, it shouldn't be called News anymore, now it should be called Olds, or Old News for you purists out there.. 2 weeks ago:
I have to ask:
“Reruns of the News”… ???

Had to uninstall Unciv from my phone.
Having a Civ-like install 24/7 available in my pocket isn’t something I can handle… - Comment on No gas? 4 weeks ago:
Nothing cooler than a bicycle that looks ridiculous
l experienced that feeling for a while about 15 years ago, riding one of the then very rare 29" drop bar mountain bikes.
Looked like a legit frankenbike.People turned their heads and started asking me about it out of the blue at predestrian crossings or so (a very unusual behaviour here in Germany).
With the somewhat similar looking gravelbikes becoming a thing during the recent years, the bike doesn’t stand out that much anymore, so situation is more relaxed now.
Although I miss the extra attention a tiny bit… - Comment on No gas? 4 weeks ago:
A bicycle is more practical
But has waayyy less style!

Would be kinda hard for an international company that has several work locations in the US… ;-)

Hot take:
If DST still makes the evening on Halloween too bright, you actually don’t need DST. - Comment on I blame Obama 4 weeks ago:
Yes, but in this states it’s in three weeks…
- Comment on I blame Obama 4 weeks ago:
But daylight savings day is on March, 29. 🤔
And what does this strange word “international” mean?

I doubt the fun would last long for you…

My German company has a travel directive to use clean-slate Laptops and virgin burner phones when going to the US for some time now already.
There are reasons for that… - Comment on Remembering the good times 4 weeks ago:

Sure I’ll support, but let’s talk about adequate weekend bonuses first.
And you sure won’t mind that I’ll take Monday off in exchange, will you? - Comment on You can tell a lot about a man when you discover the thing he is most proud about .Of what are you proudest?” January 17,1937. 5 weeks ago:
Didn’t know that Linkedin has been around that long already.
- Comment on what is with the "I personally" epidemic!? 5 weeks ago:
I initially upvoted the post, but just changed that to a downvote when I saw OP had later switched to insulting the commenters in his post instead of interacting with them in the discussion.
There is nothing wrong about the initial rant itself, but that’s just not the proper way to take part in the community.
- Comment on British children are growing taller but not for the right reasons 5 weeks ago:
Body-fat caused hormonal imbalances (mentioned in the article).
This also includes estrogen and testosterone, linking it to precocious (early) puberty.
And it doesn’t exactly cause tallness, but often quite the opposite: Affected persons typically are shorter than the norm.
It just triggers growth at an earlier point in life. - Comment on It's kind of funny how we mocked old people for years over mispronouncing "meme" and as soon as they got it right, we came up with "Pepe" 5 weeks ago:
I am pretty sure that Pepe already had been a few years old when I first heard “old” persons use the word “meme” (apart from the ancient internet founding fathers that helped invent memes in the first place).
And was anyone seriously mocking them instead of just telling them how to pronounce it? - Comment on British children are growing taller but not for the right reasons 5 weeks ago:
The missing line from the summarizing lead:
The increases in average height are closely linked to rising childhood obesity among poorer children and widening socioeconomic inequalities.
So the reasons are child poverty and the accompanying unhealthy diet.
- Comment on what is with the "I personally" epidemic!? 5 weeks ago:
I personally use “I personally” occasionally.
I think it stresses the fact that the statement you are about to make is more deeply rooted in your personal believes and behaviours or even a major part of your personality and not only a random thought that just crossed your mind. - Comment on Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features 5 weeks ago:
Dream on…
Motorola has continuously been moving headphone jack down to ever lower spec devices.
Has been the reason I bought a used G84 half a year ago, as this has been the last Motorola with at least somewhat decent specs to support those. (On top of it, it runs LineageOS really well!).
But the GrapheneOS phone will be a high-end-device, so you can probably forget about it… - Comment on Why nor???? 5 weeks ago:

Comment was not about what is, but what the rest of the world thinks it to be.

TBF, this doesn’t look like a security feature, but just a convenient way to span the chain taut.
- Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 1 month ago:
Dude’s coming from a Swedish Lemmy instance, so quite probably is a Swede.
Swedes don’t eat Hagelslag, that’s a Dutch thing, so I guess he is entitled to stay ;-)
