for me its 1/10, i can see the orange but can barely tell what it is. unless i circled every orange dot there was no way i was gonna figure it out. i thought it was a diagram
there's a crux linux?

smash hit
i was here for systemd round 2
wasn't 19 june like 2 days ago? what happened?
yeah that makes sense. i was thinking maybe youtube had servers to decide what chunks clients would get, maybe by looking at whether or not they are premium users first. but anyway youtube still needs a way to differentiate between ad chunks and video chunks, otherwise we would just be able to skip 10 seconds through all the ads. surely that can be exploited somehow.
does this mean stuff like yt-dlp will download videos with ads in thrm as well?
huh, so i'm one of the first lemm.ee users (my cake day seems to be tomorrow, might be wrong because timezone stuff)
i remember back then wanting to join an instance but hearing lemmy.ml was overloaded and i should join lemmy.world instead. then over in the comments i saw you say that you made an instance and i decided to just join it. in hindsight i don't know why i expected some instance hosted by some random guy who made a short comment to last longer than 2 weeks but i'm super glad it did (it was extra stable too). well done hosting your instance and helping us all out.
sorry, did middle schoolers get taught the earth spins twice a day? 3 times? 17 times? or maybe they get taught that the time taken for it to spin once is actually called the sidereal day and not the synodic day?
if you want to measure how fast things spin, use angular velocity. your car engine goes at several thousand rpm, not several thousand kilometers per hour. if you were standing at the poles, you would have zero linear velocity. does this mean the earth doesn't spin?
ok maybe you were talking about the time the earth takes to go around the sun. yes that takes a year.

essentially a terminal modal editor (like vim), but instead of specifying the action to perform then what to perform the action on (like "yank 3 lines"), in helix you select first, then perform actions on the selection (like "these 3 lines, i want them yanked"). it's slightly better (according to others) because you get to see what you're going to change in the file so you don't accidentally delete 5 lines instead of deleting 4.
on top of that many features are builtin, like tree-sitter and lsp support, so you don't have to spend 5 hours looking for cool plugins and configuring everything to get started (my config file is only 50 lines of toml).
the downside is that there isn't support for plugins (yet), but there's already things like a file picker, more than 100 themes etc.
