Let it go

This was my first exposure to Linux - one of the PCs in high school had it installed. (I had read about Linux before then, but not had a chance to try it)

It had a little foam Tux in the box, and I got to keep it:

The Man in the Moon.

Like so many people answering this, my height.

In my case it contrasts with my wife’s height - I’m half a yard (nearly half a meter) taller than she is.

Genshin has a 7 elements system that partially does what you describe: Wood (or anything made of or affected by dendro) burns when exposed to fire (pyro), fire melts ice (cryo) and vaporizes water (hydro), water conducts (well, causes a damage reaction with) electricity (electro), etc. The outliers are stone (geo) which makes forcefield shields with some of the other elements, and air (anemo) which swirls up and spreads and reacts together some of the other elements.

I have the opposite issue with background apps - I have 12 GB of RAM (16 on the tablet) and it still closes utilities sometimes and forces me to relaunch them (in some cases going back into settings and re-enabling accessibility services for example. That should never happen, in case it’s Really for accessibility)

I don’t follow music much, but I have a guess anyway. It seems like the number and diversity of genres just absolutely exploded since trading .mp3 files became a thing. And with digital stores and YouTube, distribution isn’t a hurdle anymore, publishers don’t have to pick and choose which albums to release, they can just do ‘all’ of them.

So there’s just no longer one single sound that can define a decade the way it used to be, now people hear hundreds of wildly different bands in a year instead of a few dozen that were hand picked by studios because they had trendy sounds.

Undead Deity is in fact a great answer to the question.

If the money eventually gets to the people of Botswana then it could help them. Feels like a long shot though.

Software and hardware support definitely counts.

I would also guess that probably a lot of Microsoft enterprise stuff like active directory group policies likely aren’t supported well, but I don’t have enough knowledge to back that up.

I guess I’ll be the thread’s normie:

Deadpool & Wolverine

And yes I would recommend it. (If one is a fan of the genre of course)

They REALLY would. (A few other examples are mentioned also)

In the US it’s Scotch tape, we never had that UK brand, so it’s unheard of as a generic also.

And Hoover is a brand, but I guess wasn’t as dominant, so nearly everyone just says vacuum as the verb.

@MargotRobbie@lemmy.world obviously

I’ve only done a cold approach a couple times in my life, and it did indeed always end in disaster. So I gave up on that fully. Eventually met my wife on a dating site, but I understand that that’s becoming much more difficult now with the enshitification, and it was never easy.

Well Now you could have shorted NVDA. It’s down like 12 points from a few days ago.

I’m a little surprised they are even still going. I guess staying small really was a goal.

Also in the US, the dollar sign is written before the number, like $5, not 5$
(Even though it’s spoken after the number, and almost all other units are after the number in both speech and writing)

When I saw the title I was seriously expecting a lot more replies like this.

Never read it, but the adaptation - a.k.a. “Cinematography: The Movie” is an amazing watch as long as you ignore the plot.
