Crul

Prepositions are hard, and these are the ones that confuse me the most:

• It seems (...) [to / for] me
• It looks like (...) [to / for] me
• It feels (...) [to / for] me
• It sounds like (...) [to / for] me
• (...) makes more sense [to / for] me

Questions:

• Are both valid?
  • If both are valid; is there any nuance as to which to use?
  • If they aren't: is there a general rule or is it a case-by-case (as it usually is with prepositions)?

Thanks!

I don't really have anything to add, I just love this book. I searched for "The NeverEnding Story" in this community, saw that there was no post about it and wanted to fix that :).

Image found on Facebook. I think the source of that specific printing is the Spanish version of the book, but it's very similar to some German version covers.

I know Bakshi's version has A LOT of issues, but I grew up watching it again and again and I have very fond memories of it. I'm aware I am in the minority.

One of the scenes I love is Boromir's death (video link)... if you can ignore the "not-enough-budget" Uruk-hai. I like the roughness and lack of music once Boromir's is hit with the first arrow.

HiPOD 26 May 2023: Fans Both Light and Dark

This image is part of a longterm seasonal monitoring site with lots of long bright and dark fans. These are formed as a result of sublimation, when subsurface ice is transformed by sunlight into a gaseous state and exposes the underneath darker material. This is subsequently blown about by the wind and the fans will fade over time.

Hi, I'm focusing on generating content for a few communities that I feel can be successful and have less content than I expected:

• [email protected]: a genre of retrofuturism based on the 70's and 80's (more info)
• [email protected]: cute invertebrates
• [email protected]: weird vehicles (with wheels)
• [email protected]: self-explanatory

EDIT: I did not create any of those communities

I would encourage anyone to participate if you like those topics.

Do you know any other niche-but-not-too-niche communities in which we could focus efforts?
Please, don't post very long lists, I'm already subscribed to almost 300 communities and the idea is to focus on a few ones.

Thanks!

EDIT: Added descriptions for each community.

The Hackamajig is a device that allows Colt to hack turrets, sensors, security shutters or even unlock doors
It's a first person asset used by the player throughout the game
The hackamajig is made out of two parts, a walkie-talkie and a homemade hacking thingy attached to it
Walkie-talkie part was done in placeholder state by an outsourcer before I worked on it

SOLVED: by @[email protected] using columns property

TL;DR: I want to achieve this behavior for the menu layout, but all I can get is this; note the different menu options order.

Two days ago I asked for help for implementing the current behavior without hardcoding the menu height for each resolution step, and there were two suggestions to try display: grid. It looked promising and after reading some documentation I was able to get something very close to what I'm looking for.

The only difference being that I want the chapters to be sorted vertically (as in the current version), but what I got sorts the chapters horizontally.

Here it is (what I think is) the relevant code:

#menu ul {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  grid-auto-flow: row dense;
}

Sorry, I don't have the display: grid version online.

I did a quick search for display grid multiple columns vertical sort and saw this StackOverflow post: CSS Grid vertical columns with infinite rows which, if I understand correctly, says it's not possible. But I'm pretty sure I'm not understanding it correctly.

Any help will be welcome, thanks!

EDIT: I also tried grid-audto-flow: column (as suggested here) but it just renders a single row. Probably because I'm missing something...

#menu ul {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  grid-auto-flow: column;
}

EDIT-2: I was told that for grid-audto-flow: column to work I need to specify the numbers of columns. If I understand correctly, then that doesn't really help. The original issue is that I need to edit the CSS file every time a new chapter is added. Which would be the same if I have to hardcode the number of rows.

I mean, it's a bit cleaner to hardcode the number of rows than the height in pixels, but I was looking for a solution that doesn't require magic numbers in the CSS.
