Scroll down a bit in this article. There's a list of what each of the available keys are required to provide. A "key" in this context is basically a notch in a certain location, which then defines the meaning of the various pins of the connector. Some devices have multiple keys, as some of the specifications have a common subset. Like key A+E is common, because E provides almost everything that A does, so a device that only requires the common interfaces can work in both. Cars that rely on one of the exclusive interfaces will have the specific key of course. This A+E communication is often used for WiFi cards.

Sockets always only have one key though, for obvious reasons.

Edit: correction/clarification

I actually have it on my wishlist. One of those games I wanted to play eventually. Had it on my wishlist now. Certain actions by companies make me lose interest.

There's enough good games out there. Can skip some based on company actions just fine.

Close (ish), but no.

Normal bikes that you just push aren't that stable without a rider, but you can get it some distance. They still fall over rather quickly. That's mostly the form of the handlebars like gnu commented. And yes, without a rider, the gyroscopic effect is relevant. A bike weighs let's say 15 kg, and a rider is commonly like 75kg. Of course removing like 80% of the weight changes if the gyroscopic has a meaningful influence. Add the rider back, and it becomes negligible again.

This is of course even more pronounced if you push only a wheel with nothing else, then there's nothing left but momentum and the gyroscopic effect.

The reason you lean into a turn is exclusively the centrifugal force (not sure that's the right twin), if you don't you fall over because you have nothing to turn against. Changing direction needs something to push against.

The gyroscopic effect of slowly spinning, light bicycle wheels is negligible compared to the weight of the bike and it's rider. If it was what keeps you upright, riding a tiny scooter-thing with skateboard/inliner wheels would be impossible. I mean those without motor, pedals, where you push yourself forward with one foot on the ground), often for kids.

What actually keeps you upright isn't a physical effect, but just training your brain to instinctually keep you upright. While you're moving, turning the handlebar effectively moves the bike below you left and right. So if you start tilting to the right, you turn right (slightly) so the bike/scooter is moving below you to compensate. That's why learning to ride anything that is balancing on 2 wheels takes a relatively long time, but only once. Then your brain knows what to do, and it just works without thinking about it.

The red light on a camera also means it's "recording". Which is the reason the record-action in audio/video software is still a red circle to this day. This being about audio and video recording capability makes this another way to look at it, in a not complicated way.

What in trying to say is that what's intuitive depends on your perspective. Most of all what you've encountered before that's similar. It had nothing to do with overcomplicating anything.

There's also mods in satisfactory. For example "satisfactory plus" is essentially a full rework, increasing complexity by 2-3x. Obviously needs to be updated for 1.0 first though... Just in case you need something until factorio dlc at the end of October.

Edit: if you're familiar with factorio mods, it's similar to and inspired by bobs+angels.

Satisfactory with it's 1.0 release yesterday. Just pure serenity.

Any password manager should be able to "type in" the password. Or be a browser plugin that doesn't rely on copy pasting, but use other mechanisms to inject it directly into the field.

But yes, if that's their online portal, I am not kidding I would change banks.

Getting them there wasn't exactly smooth either...

That story is genuinely hilarious. And from the judges summary judgement it really does sound like the license holder of the disputed songs did some legal juggling just to be able to play the victim and sue Spotify. What an odd business plan...

 

The linked post essentially performed a benchmark of lemmy apps and if they properly display the formating options available. Sync got 3rd last place, position 18 out of 20 apps, with a score of 6.9 out of 10. There's a comment that essentially contains the test set. I hope we get some fixes, cause some of the problems have been around for a while.

In my personal experience the issues with spoiler tags, and some of the embedded images and their sizes is rather annoying. For example this comment shows perfectly fine on desktop, but becomes a garbled mess on sync (as you can tell by my comment, blaming the bot). Also note that while sync technically gets 3/3 for the images, the last image should be text-sized between the "arrows". It isn't, it's just huge (and consequently a pixelated mess).

Edit: fixed link to example comment for spoiler.
