  • Why trash it? Give it away, maybe someone else will have a router that the printer accepts. If they get it working, they won't buy a new one and give HP money. (Warn them about the Instant Ink trap though)

  • 74-point margin

    Why not just say 86% Trump? Much easier.(Harris 13 %, others 1 %, as per Frontier County results of 1413 votes)

  • Imagine if there's a very socialist world government that forces carpooling, so everyone's commute becomes a bus line.

    Or if on-demand services count each route variation.

  • I don't play Geoguessr, and I don't even really know which countries have left side driving or yellow paint. I am good with maps though, and there were only around 10 stops on the route @ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com identified, and the size of the building and parking lot narrowed it down to a few.

  • In campaign promises only, of course.

  • That's correct, it's in the town of Ödåkra, and the round glassy building reflecting in the window is the Väla shopping center.

  • You just revealed the IP address of a device near you, and thus your location! Learn better OPSEC! /s

  • Wikipedia only mentions analog/digital terrestrial, IPTV and cable as of 2020. They cite a 2013 article with this info: "Imported TV sets that are able to operate on both PAL and NTSC, such as those from Japan, have their NTSC abilities disabled by the government on import." I can't imagine how they do it on flat screens (it was not really feasible to import a new CRT in 2013+) because LCDs/OLEDs do all scaling in a single chip. Presumably, they could shut down the system if they detect 59.94 Hz with an added circuit but that's easy to find and remove.

  • Does DPRK really have a TV satellite or is that guy just capturing analog (yes, analog) PAL or DVB-T2 terrestrial signals that make it to South Korea?

  • "We have ἤλεκτρον (elektron), can you show us?"

  • Wow, I just learnt from your comment history that you likely don't even speak Czech. This must have been hell.

    By the way, English not being my first language is one of the factors why I'm not a programmer, see the edit to the above comment.

  • I found a random PHP file online and recreated your trauma:

    Is this what it looked like? (I also took the liberty of replacing $ with § because of the Czech keyboard layout; FYI: yes we do have a $ available as AltGr+ů but § is in the base layer; I would also replace the backtick/grève , which is obtained by pressing AltGr+š once or twice (OS-dependent), with °).

    Edit: BTW my first code was in the "Imagine" program, a Logo IDE with Czech localization (including syntax: do, vz, vp, vl, puntík, smaž, domů, příkaz, konec, piš etc.). The documentation was piss-poor, I never learnt if it had arrays or code comments. The textbook I had didn't even mention variables, I only learned about them in a short PDF guide I found online. Before that, I would use pixels on the canvas as variables.

    Had my 10yo self received a Python runtime instead, I wouldn't be stimied by the "you don't need to pass arguments if every variable is global" mindset I'm still struggling to overcome. I found programming challenges online and was able to solve most theoretical ones, but Imagine was too limited to implement all but the basic practical ones, not to mention that it ran way slower than Python would. I was convinced that the lack of speed was mostly the hardware's fault and that I would need a low-level language like C++ to solve the 1000×1000 inputs in some puzzles. I got in touch with the challenge authors and they suggested Eclipse but I couldn't get it to work. I was too overwhelmed by the English interface and documentation and barely knew what a compiler was. I learnt decent English soon after but the fear of IDEs stayed, and eventually I turned towards electronics instead.

  • Mist.

    As you may have learnt in Last Week Tonight S12E23, "Mist" means "crap" in German.

  • Haha, and insert chest joke

  • You can type "qr url" and have it done in one step. However, unlike your two-step process that most likely just fetches results for the common "qr code" query from cache, this loads their servers unnecessarily. The same can be achieved in Firefox by bookmarking "https://qr.15c.me/qr.html#%s" (or a local copy of tiny-qr.html) and settting its keyword (not to be confused with tags) to "qr".

  • 3D-flat as opposed to 2D-flat, or a bigger, crazier theory?
