wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Open Source@lemmy.ml•GIMP - Development Update: Closing In on the 3.0 Release Candidate1·6 months agoNo, it’s still lacking a few features like CMYK color spaces. The UX issues are those of polish: the feature works if you know exactly how to use it, but a lot of times the workflows are neither intuitive for novices or efficient for proficient users. The team clearly has accepted this too.

I still use it because it’s the only relatively full featured photo editor that works on all my platforms, but… Yea.
wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there any scientific basis on "taste creep?" Example: you've eaten lots of good food and now average food that you used to enjoy grosses you out.61·7 months agoI have this in a big way. My spouse is a master chef and I refuse to eat at restaurants which serve foods from her home country because they can’t compete.

My grandfather’s cat used to play goalie. She would guard some area, like a doorway and expect us to tty to toss a ball or something through. She’d then catch it and return the ball to us for more.
What I meant was (and I was being a little humorous) that your normal type is the one you’d rationally want to like intellectually and emotionally and this dude is the one you.are physically attracted to. I was thinking you were crying over the men you wanted to be similarly physically attracted to and the strong emotional reaction was a result of your surprise at how intense the physical attraction could be.
It’s OK to have more than one type and be attracted to different people for different reasons. I think you have just discovered a new aspect of your own preferences and are trying to reconcile them.
Perhaps you secretly know you’ll end up with a guy much like this one, and are therefore crying for the others…

Khan academy can solve this for you, if you want.
Amazing. I’m not OP and have no use for this info, but it was fun to learn it still.
I think for most web apps it doesn’t make sense to allow the width to get so wide, except when the content being displayed is a columnar list and even then it’s a pretty marginal benefit.
What I’ve done is limit the max-width to some amount of px/chars and allowed the remaining space be empty, with an exception for when displaying tables. Even with tables, the bigger width is only beneficial if either the contents of the columns are large enough, or there are very many columns to show. The solution in my mind is limiting the column widths to the longest content.
Yea, Chinese people understand when you do that, but they first look at you with this confused look thinking ‘he wants two chopstic pieces?’ and then realize you have a vocabulary of a two-year-old.

Whatever they decide can be framed as a reaction to internalized fear.
Not to mention that gender roles also affect men.
Don’t need windows if you live in a basement (and use Linux).
I feel like there are some missed opportunities
- Sensors that don’t work because a proprietary driver is missing
- Having to add repositories to get wifi working
- Voice assistant that only works if you know terminal command parameters by heart
- More tool windows
- More xorg.conf to get displays working
- A flame war about the relative benefits of obscure infrastructure componemts
- 7 package managers, 3 if which are needed to install 90% of needed software. The remaining 10% somehow still needs to be installed via shell scripts
- Completely new UI in each version, still looks like it was designed by german ocelots in the 90s
wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Technology@beehaw.org•But with serverless you don't pay for idle time !8·1 year agoI mean, I am fine with my hobby website being taken down if it starts to consume an unreasonable amount of bandwidth.
They don’t need to give a free tier and I am not entitled to getting anything out of them. Since they have decided to offer one, I do expect to be consulted before sending a bill worth a ferrari.

OP is clearly boasting about how smart they are.
That hiding candy (or other things people wanted) was a universal property of grandmothers.
English is not my first language, but I had heard the expression “search all nooks and crannies”, but thought the last word was grannies - cranny is an unusual word.
Now,my own grandmother was in the habit of hiding candy for us to find. I thought the expression existed because all grannies hid things. Search all nooks and grannies!
