Technology@lemmy.world•The Latest Windows 11 Update Gets Rid of the Start Menu and ExplorerEnglish
5·17 days agoThe fact that the explorer can regularly completely freeze up nowadays or flat out crash is actually insane.
This was literally the trigger for my very first Linux experience, it’s fucking asinine that something so fundamental to the UX could perform so poorly for such an extended period of time.
I love having to reboot the explorer.exe process in task manager because my taskbar search stops working.

2·4 months agoWeird number of downvotes here – I thought they were meant for low-effort or non contributive comments, not an “I disagree” button. This person is giving a unique perspective as a subscriber (in this thread, anyway) and should be met with curiosity, I think. It is helpful to know that there are people who enjoy paying for it, so thanks for giving your opinion here.
I disagree because they have a dominant position for reasons other than having a good product – they squash competition trying to make the space better while themselves actively making it worse. Subscribing means supporting that style of inhibiting innovation, not to mention the other user-hostile practices they embrace (extend, extinguish). They are an ad company and obligated to make a profit, I get that, but I refuse to abide this style of using investor money to operate at a loss for years while deceptively capturing the market before raising prices. If your product is good, it shouldn’t need to be artificially propped up.
Thanks for taking the time to explain :)
If the ACAB post is just words, then no. If it’s imagery of people being beaten by cops, then yes. There’s no need to argue extremes to make the point seem ridiculous – just use judgment and be kind.
It’s about being considerate; that’s where the conversation starts and ends, so don’t get sidetracked or focus on semantics. It does not matter why someone is browsing any website at their place of work, so let’s not even bring that into the conversation. NFSW is meant to help people view content at work/in public by making it avoidable. It’s a communication from the author/community to the audience that the content may or may not be inappropriate – that’s it. If it’s debatable and isn’t tagged, that’s inconsiderate and a request to tag it should be treated with consideration and kindness (barring trolls, which OP clearly isn’t).
But that’s just my opinion, and I acknowledge yours is different.
Just because there’s no nudity doesn’t mean it’s safe-for-work. This would absolutely make my female colleagues uncomfortable and that falls under the spirit of NSFW. Getting pedantic about what is or isn’t pornographic or nudity to justify having gross pictures up on your screen is entirely beside the point – if there’s any reason it could contribute to a less equitable workplace, it should be labeled NSFW. If there’s any debate about it at all, it’s the considerate thing to do.

Games@lemmy.world•WalkScape's (RuneScape inspired fitness MMORPG) developer here, we've now released support for smartwatches on iOS & a lot of new content, and we are accepting new players to the Closed Beta!English
3·7 months agoThanks for the reply! PEBKAC issue – I was logged in with the right account, but the email I requested to join the beta from was not a google account so I had to make one for this. I forgot to change the email in my Walkscape account portal to the gmail I made. All good now!

4·7 months agoI was accepted into the beta, but I’m unable to find the app in the store. I joined the google group, but I’m not sure what else to check. When I follow the link it shows the app in the browser, but when I try to find it with the play store app it can’t be found. Any ideas?

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK You don't need Teflon pans for nonstick
2·7 months agoSometimes the food can do it too – I scratched my last nonstick pan with a silicone spatula because I ground black pepper on my eggs and caught a craggy piece just right while flipping. After being super careful for months! So irritated.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Scientists just found a way to break through climate apathy: Boiling down data into a binary — a stark this or that — can help break through apathy about climate change.
12·8 months agoAngela Collier has some great thoughts about the shortcomings of scientific communication with the public in general – I think this is the video. Can’t recommend her enough, wonderful breakdowns of very complex topics in a way that doesn’t make me feel dumb.



Damn, those Steam reviews are awful
