And certainly now that I've fully left Reddit, I'm no longer spreading the word of Lemmy there

I find any of these dyslexic fonts harder to read. The less uniform it is, the more stuttered and slow I read it. I don't have dyslexia though, so I guess that makes sense maybe

Interestingly, you can break a lot of websites by adding a trailing dot to the URL, like twitter.com..

It's a perfectly valid URL, a fully-qualified one, and should resolve to the same place with or without the trailing dot. Some sites, like google.com. handle it correctly, but many fail completely, or fail partially, or at least don't preserve your login session.

What, isn't DDoS protection one of the main selling points of Cloudflare, if not the primary selling point even‽ Google search seems to agree

Indeed. Many plants even bear fruit that is intended to be eaten. I don't think any animals intend to be eaten. Fruit is specifically supposed to look and taste good, so that animals eat it and crap out the seeds elsewhere. Even edible leaves are beneficial, as the animals leave fertiliser (more shit).

Though, to say the plant wants to be eaten would be a stretch. There's no evidence of a thought process, it's entirely developed just from evolutionary gain. Animals, however, do think.

I'm sore that they'd actually planned single player content for GTA V, akin to that of GTA IV. TBOGT and TLAD were so good, like full standalone games, but just reusing most of the map, assets and engine. However when GTA Online's success exceeded expectations, they cancelled the single player content and cannibalised it into sub-tier disjointed online junk, leaving behind unresolved single player storylines and hints, that were supposed to feature in the expansions, in their wake.

This is just terrible.

However, while it does add a layer of annoyance that'll mess things up for most, like any DRM, it fundamentally is unsound and will get cracked. Us good people have a big incentive to do so here. Reading the spec, it still relies on a trusted party (expected to be the OS) and, unlike ie. games consoles, we already have admin access to that party from the get go.

Where it could be a problem is mobile phones. They could target browsers that support ad blocking and you'd probably need to root the phone to get past that.

I liked the obsolete shim for that: cinst - save some letters.

Same with cup instead of choco update.

I've just reinstated them anyway.

Fixed it for Lemmy:

Yeah, I like vinyl too. But digital to analog conversion is always imperfect. I don't see that being too fitting for an IMAX cinema, where the aim is just biggest and best, no niche. Aesthetic imperfections are more fitting for arthouse and such I think.

However, I read into it some more now and it's quite interesting. In the case of Oppenheimer, they actually do manage to avoid the digital conversion for much of the film!

For movies shot on film, all of the film negatives are scanned to digital files so that they can be edited using AVID, and the process continues as before. The finished movie can then be "printed" back on to physical film using a laser scanner, which is how most film prints are made these days. However, some filmmakers like Christopher Nolan refuse to use this method, because it doesn't allow you to take full advantage of the resolution of IMAX film. So in Nolan's case, once the movie is finished, an Edit Decision List (EDL) is created, which contains a text list of all the edit points in the film, and which physical pieces of film negative those correspond to. Then, a person called a Negative Cutter actually physically cuts together and assembles the film negative to create the movie in the analog realm. It's a very specialized profession - there are only one or two people in Hollywood that still do it!

Yeah, but they're likely digitally editing it all now, so it loses that in the middle of the process. Can't really see why it would make sense to print a digital file back onto film.

EDIT: I did some reading, some movies have a solution for this!

Jerboa has the column separators. Looks like it also has alternately shaded rows.
