Jessica@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Mitch McConnell escorted away from cameras after freezing during a news conferenceEnglish752·2 years agoI mean the man is directly responsible for blocking several Supreme Court justices from being appointed while Obama was president, which led to roe v wade being overturned so uh, Moscow Mitch couldn’t drop dead any faster in my opinion.
Jessica@lemmy.worldto Connect for Lemmy App@lemmy.ca•Can you support Remove Read From Feed like Joey did for Reddit43·2 years agoIf I had a nickel for every post I’ve seen asking this question in the last 60 seconds, I’d have two nickels.
Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice. Check out Voyager because it just got this feature today.
The last comma should have been a period. For some reason on that particular font the period showed up in the center of the line instead of at the bottom and it looked really weird.
Edit: for what it’s worth, the original meme had a comma too for some reason
Okay so it’s not just me. Wild
Jessica@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We love old memes because they remind us of a time when we felt like participants instead of consumersEnglish321·2 years agoYou’re never too old to learn when to use where vs were ;)
This was surprisingly interesting! Thanks for posting it. I didn’t think there was anything noteworthy to glean from it, but @Contramuffin@lemmy.world mentioned down below that USB doesn’t have interrupts, which I was unaware of. I especially liked how he covered different types of USB keyboards running at different speeds, and he briefly covered n-key rollover, or the lack thereof on the two keyboards he had on hand as well as why some key combinations fail due to shared wiring in the keyboard. The latency discussion between PS/2 interrupting and USB being polled for data at the end of the video was also fascinating.
Edit: Ben Eater did a follow-up video on how n-key rollover works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lPzTU-3ONI
No worries! Usually the memes here aren’t so technical. I only got the joke because I was required to take a class on operating systems for my degree, and we covered interrupts.
I don’t know if everyone here is just a galaxy brain or what, but I’m surprised nobody has asked or explained the joke. The red bird is a CPU running lines of assembly instructions and the crow is user input causing an interrupt to press the e key. This particular type of interrupt exists because it would feel really bad if you were typing, and the text didn’t show up until several seconds later when the CPU felt like processing the (hopefully) buffered input.
Quality meme op
Jessica@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Bank of America to Pay Over $100 Million to Customers and $150 Million in Penalties for Illegal and Deceptive Banking Practices6·2 years agoThey’ve unfortunately been doing scummy things for a very long time as well. Over a decade ago I banked with them and my account went a few dollars negative. They charged eight dollars a day every day for like a month and a half and refused to reverse it so I just let it go to collections.

Jessica@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on Lemmy than Reddit?1·2 years agoAh I see. I’ve never heard the term PWA, but yeah I did that as well for lemmyworld on iOS. My one complaint is there doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the “app”
Jessica@lemmy.worldMto General Discussion@lemmy.world•Is it illegal/poor taste to port content from Reddit over to Lemmy?0·2 years agoI mean the beauty of the fediverse is you can have your cake and eat it too in this scenario. If someone wants to spin up an instance that’s just reposts that duplicate communities elsewhere, you could selectively subscribe to both or only the one without reposts.

I didn’t think to try on Google. I believe DuckDuckGo is running on Microsoft Bing so it likely doesn’t work there either
Jessica@lemmy.worldMto General Discussion@lemmy.world•Is it illegal/poor taste to port content from Reddit over to Lemmy?31·2 years agoHave you been paying attention to Reddit content for the past I don’t even know how many years? It’s all TikTok and twitter reposts, and before that it was 9gag and 4chan reposts. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what op is asking if the past is anything to go off of
According to the second video I linked, a resident of Kowloon spent the better part of six years mapping out the city. Here’s the timestamp: https://youtu.be/PcSBOUpgngM?t=794
