The word 'blitz' nowadays is used to describe an offensive tactics when you capture as much ground as possible when the enemy is unprepared. I would use the word 'blitzkrieg' to refer to the historic tactics used by WW2 Germany.

But anyway, it's not very fitting for drones, because they are not capturing any territory.

You don't need to close it, your HTML will be rendered correctly anyway.

Even if this miracle technology works, which is questionable, it would be like constructing a giant antenna to catch tiny amount of cosmic microwave background radiation to convert into electricity.

Catching up from that time when Github CEO stepped down. I guess I'll just move back to sourceforge.

They'll simply switch fully to outsourcing. There's no language barrier if all your middle managers are also from India.

I'm surprised that Tic Tac Toe is even winnable. There is always a perfect strategy to force a draw.

That's not a quartet, that's like a whole isekai stadium

It makes so much sense on a plane. If you lose attention and lean on the control stick, the plane will tilt the nose down and yank you back into the seat. If the direction was up, the plane would slam you into the stick and the plane would do infinite loops, especially if you black out.

I consider 'based' an opposite of 'sour' or 'acidic'. That is, being alkaline and having high pH is considered socially desirable. Mixing based and sour personalities will naturally produce salt, that is, dried tears.

Cooking is a term for any time-consuming chemical reaction, which happens to include food preparation.

I have no chemistry-related explanation for rizz. Something to do with sparks?

More like, take a bunch of screenshots of vibe coded website, and treat that as design document while rewriting the whole thing from scratch with clean architecture.

I am sorry, two random Internet users in Korea and Germany, your IP addresses are simply special.

 

Google had removed my X server app from Play Store, because it was too old (is 2022 too old?)

But no more! I have recompiled it for the newest Android version and published it back. And you can use it to run GUI apps from Termux. Launch X server first, then run these commands in Termux, then switch back to X server:

pkg install x11-repo
pkg install xfce4
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
export PULSE_SERVER=tcp:127.0.0.1:4713
xfce4-session

Termux now has it's own X server, my app is pretty similar, except that it's landscape by default.

 

I have mixed sour cream with Marmite to make it spread more evenly over banana, and the taste is... not good. The salt overpowers all other components. It's even worse than plain Marmite banana, because you can actually taste the banana before Marmite diffuses over your tongue. The best combination was cream banana without Marmite, to no surprise.

Marmite cream oat cookie is a surprising discovery. The overpowering saltness of Marmite is balanced by the overpowering sweetness of the oat cookie, the same way salted caramel works. I don't think the cream is even necessary, you can rub Marmite on the cookie's hard surface much easier than on the soft banana.

 

If combining two things from a fridge could be called a new recipe. It tastes good, I promise.

The shop also had regular sprink bottles with the same cologne, but this bottle is shaped like a fuel can, so it looked manlier to me. It contains 80% alcohol, so it's also a disinfectant and an after-shave.

 

I don't need any fancy tiling window managers. One fullscreen window per desktop, and 12 virtual desktops, that was my workflow for 10 years. Then I incorporated KDE activities into my workflow, which are exactly like virtual desktops but switched with Meta-Tab not with Ctrl-F1 - Ctrl-F12. Wonderful!

And then, Plasma devs broke it. Switching activities now puts my foreground fullscreen window (one per desktop) into background, and switches keyboard focus to the desktop. Give me back my keyboard shortcuts, and you could also rename Plasma back to KDE while you're at it, thank you very much.

At least there is a bug opened, but it's doubtful that Plasma devs will fix it before Debian 13 release. I can't even find motivation to update my OS anymore.

 

Also works for searches 'Times new roman' and 'Courier new font', but not for 'Lucida console font' or 'Dejavu sans font'.

 

Lemmy Connect attempts to add ?format=webp to the image URL when loading .gif image, this makes many Lemmy servers return an error. When opening the post in the web browser, without the extra addition to the image URL, the image loads correctly.

I often want to copy some phrase from a post to search it on the web. Long-pressing post text minimizes this post into a single line, which is not very useful IMO, I would rather have text selection cursor like in a web browser.

 

Some studios are still releasing premium games in 2023. Undead Horde 2 is a dungeon crawler with no ads or IAP, and it costs $10.

It features 3D blocky graphics, although less blocky than Undead Horde 1. The combat is moderately paced and depends more on upgrades than on button mashing, most of the time your minions do all the fighting. There are no puzzles, just some fetch quests to progress the story.

 

I've unlocked all weapons in Vampire Survivors, and I'm too bored to grind the remaining 14 unlocks.

Please recommend me some proper, $10 up-front games.
