  • Algeria kept Bouteflika in a near-vegetative state for years. They didn't hide him, they paraded him around in a wheelchair.

  • This happened to Facebook in 2021. They messed up their DNS and employee badges stopped working.

  • I never noticed but yeah, I can see it. Not 100% since it's been ages since I was around vanilla, but distantly I can see it.

  • PipePipe is a fork of Newpipe that has more features (such as SponsorBlock) and gets fixes faster whenever YouTube changes something.

  • No, it's named after 🤗 (I'm being completely serious).

  • What does this have to do with VR? VR doesn't remove anything, it's just a fancy monitor.

  • Coyotes are smart.

    I saw a documentary on CBS that said otherwise. A coyote couldn't even catch a bird.

  • It's actually worse than that. Boeing bought MD with stocks, which means MD essentially bought Boeing with Boeing's money.

  • Sleep tight!

  • Ackchually it was founded in the US.

  • Didn't they change it recently for this exact reason ?

  • You can define the folder structure used by the app, so if needed, you can backup your documents as raw files (of course, you'll lose metadata from Paperless).

  • Maybe you should get your eyes checked if you think a banner several times bigger than the age rating badge is not visible enough.

    I'm not addressing any other point because they all revolve around the banner being somehow misleading even though it isn't.

  • How am I as a regular consumer supposed to know what a game key card is?

    It's explained on the box. The important information ("full game download required") is on the front, and more details are printed on the back.

  • How is it deceptive? It's clearly stated on the box in unambiguous terms. In fact, the warning banner for key cards is bigger than the banner for codes in a box. Nintendo isn't responsible for your inability to read.

  • AC here are nearly always split units though. Our windows don't slide up, so harder to install that type of AC unit that sits on the sill.

    I have windows that slide sideways, and an AC unit with two pipes (intake and exhaust) that go through a piece of plastic sitting in the window's rail.

    It's terrible. Super loud, and the room gets hot again in a couple minutes after I turn it off.

    Split units are almost always illegal to install because of local urbanism laws, or apartment lot rules.

  • There is a huge banner at the bottom of the cover art that clearly states that a download is required. It's only misleading if you can't read.

  • Today I Learned @lemmy.world

    TIL James Matthew Barrie, author of Peter Pan, founded an amateur cricket team called the Allahakbarries
