Well, I did say mostly sane. I’ve been on the site longer than most/all of the admins and have never had an issue, but I don’t post often. I know one of the current admins is a Google employee, so maybe they feel the need to defend their evil provider.

I don’t think I’d lump lobste.rs in with hackernews, as it has always been basically a mostly sane alternative to hackernews.

Admittedly, the small file chunks made sense on dialup, but man did it suck when you’d end up with 102 of 110 files and then they’d vanish.

Or the even worse era of trolling IRC chats looking for DCC bots and hoping your feeble attempts at security or obfuscation will hold. Ah, the good ol days.

Exactly the type of super human that would engage in N900 necromancy.

This is one of the dumbest distractions I’ve ever witnessed. I suppose the purposely forcing an acknowledged shitty font that was pushed out for a reason is on brand for such a shitty administration.

A broom? /s, but not really

Well, at least HBO content might become accessible through a decent UI and keep the same name for more than six months.

Well, at least there is some good news today.

The $15 plan used to only be 2GB, which was honestly still enough for people that only use mobile data sparingly.

Or eating toe funk

When I was much younger, I wanted that idealistic thing too. I was so optimistic about new tech that would come out. Decades of companies working on promising tech and turning it into a dystopian or anti-user mess have beaten that spirit out of me. I don’t want “smart” anything, and I certainly don’t trust any of the companies possibly capable of doing these things to be in charge of actually doing it.

This really, really sucks. WhoSampled is awesome, especially for sample heavy music from the 80s and 90s. They’ve been around over a decade, weird to call them a startup. While I am pissed, if Spotify came and offered me a truck load of money for something I was running and probably making little to no money, I can’t say it wouldn’t be tempting.

It isn’t a different use case at all, it is that only KDE calls it meta. Everything else that I know of calls it super. If you’re a KDE user, you’re using it just fine, it is just weird that KDE is the odd man out, especially since meta was traditionally already associated with the alt key. I’m sure someone at KDE had some reason for it and at this point they see no reason to change.

Using Ai to build power plants that will be used for AI to build more power plants that are used for AI to make a bunch of slop. TECHNOLOGY!!

Corne-ish Zen 3x6 I can definitely see why you don’t have a dedicated Windows/Super key then. I do find Super… ahem… super useful though, so you my consider adding it to a layer if it isn’t already there. I was never able to adapt to any of the smaller split or ortho keyboard layouts. I sold my OG Ergodox after stubbornly trying to use it for so long. My only winkeyless boards now are my vintage keyboards that predate the windows key.

No problem, though I must admit I’m curious about your keyboard as it is quite uncommon to not have one. Are you using an older keyboard that lacks one or one of the “winkeyless” enthusiast mechanical keyboards or maybe a really small form factor keyboard?

It’s like riding a bike, you’ll be on it in no time!

AFAIK, only KDE calls it Meta, everything else tends to use Super.

As far as I am aware, the “Windows” key is generally mapped as the Super key, not he Meta key.
