Not used widely enough with that intent yet, though. - Comment on I require nothing more 4 days ago:
Don’t use that mop thing. Takes the fun out of it.
Get a cloth, hold it in a good shape on the floor with you hands, put a bit of your weight on it and start running straight forward.
You save on the Gym membership and get to do something much more fun than sitting on synthetic leather and moving a dumb-bell up and down, slowly.

Needs more HDDs.
And more screens.I’m hoping there is an HVAC outlet not in view and the whole room has UPS.

Ionic bonded compounds such as NaCl, when in water, interact with other ions around them.
Even other Na^+^ and Cl^-^ ions… - Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 3 weeks ago:
But that “Peter” guy told me to “eat veggies” when I asked him how he managed to easily and acrobatically evade that incoming high speed vehicle! Why didn’t he tell me to “eat meat” instead?
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 3 weeks ago:
I don’t eat meat (mostly a taste thing), but I’d definitely gift it to a nearby chap doing a bbq after the smack.
Not to waste something that could become food, right? - Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 3 weeks ago:
The dude is just staying alert in case another one comes to the dude, trying to do the same thing as the original one.
Seems like the dude would do the same to any other kind of organism trying the same thing on the dude (perhaps you can try biting the dude’s neck to see if you get the written reaction).I’ll call that immunisation.

Electric cars don’t own credit cards, yet.
You want to charge the credit card of the car’s owner. - Comment on How do you charge an electric car without a credit card? 3 weeks ago:
Calling others “creepy” for putting an effort to help you out, just for fun or sth needs to be de-incentivised. And that’s what the ones above are doing.
Also, the chap who attempted identity theft is probably not going around telling you where they got your information (or that they got it, or that they exist).
- Comment on Asus and Lenovo’s handhelds get price hike as Valve pauses some Steam Deck sales 3 weeks ago:
It would make a lot of sense to the company trying to decide how large their production run should be.
For the customer, it only really makes sense if they are getting something out of it, like immunity to possible price hikes at launch.
I don’t pre-order, but then, I am a late stage buyer, so it doesn’t really apply to me.

love interest
What!? No!
He just fornicates all villain’s wives to churn out their information, which he uses, to destroy the villain or sth.The women are then left for dead. They do survive some times.
Every movie, new villain, new infidel wife.

Yeah, probably just extra weight that interferes with the speed of your cells doing their job.

They are keeping it to be able to sell it to other agencies, who will then use it to open your face-locks.

“he should have been in the cycle lane”
No. He should have had a backwards facing lance, attached to the frame.
- Comment on Batterypunk 1 month ago:
it would do just the same fitting just one battery in the proper orientation
This.
If it’s in parallel anyway, it doesn’t make a difference, slanting it like that, except maybe, making a worse quality connection, that may disconnect with the cell wiggling. - Comment on Grieve with me 1 month ago:
I see. So I’ll have to buy one again 😒.
Well, my fault for keeping it on the handlebar while riding at noon
- Comment on Does the average person know markdown? 1 month ago:
Probably doesn’t follow the spec very closely.
It doesn’t require you to put a double space in the end off a line to get to the next. This is similar to a lot of other implementations you see on web pages.
But it does at least follow through with single level ordered and unordered lists (bullets and numbering) and even automatically adds a bullet when you press Shift+Enter
Also, single line code and code blocks, work.
Then there is the usual italics and bold and even a quote block.It also converts most of them while you type, instead of you having to wait until sending it, which is better than UIs that don’t even have a preview button. I like Preview buttons.

OIC. I should have thought about that.
And here I was considering making this the default way of doing a strikethrough.On the other hand, perhaps we should update the screen readers to make that work. Maybe it can be added as a category of stuff that is to be explained separately.
The least I can do is install a screen reader and know what it does with this.

You mean ̶s̶t̶r̶i̶k̶e̶t̶̶h̶r̶o̶u̶g̶h̶? Yeah. It can be done without markdown.

My phone started doing the thing, where, if I let it discharge to 18% before setting it up to charge, it doesn’t charge unless I turn it off and on again.
No, Restart does not work.

Well, it would really just be a 2 - 10 second read, depending upon how fast you read, so…
On the other hand, do you consider time taken imagining the story, as part of the reading time, because I know a book that would have a months long reading time in that case.

But what if the book were titled, “Here’s how I became a millionaire”
