@maltimore that's not really news, bud. she's been public about such views. IDK about the Stalin boosting specifically, but I'm not *surprised*: would a person who maintains something like scihub be expected to hold no unorthodox views?

well I upgraded to Android 12 and the UI is a gooey pile of shit. what's the scuttlebutt on ? also is it any more customizable without needing to make a new ROM?

@izaya I'm confused weren't you playing a VN and losing posting about it but to long ago. I usually don't post about stuff I don't like unless it's important news or something of that ilk

Although this doesn't actually hold much promise on the general problem according to the outside expert cited. Hm.

ok, I got excited and posted without reading the article. This isn't a manual debris collection thing. Still, glad to see there's commercial entities doing something interesting to address this problem.

@readsteven that's just what I was talking about! I don't know what a floppy disk is, but "down folder" should make sense?
I've been thinking though, it probably doesn't really matter: humans have language and can assign meaning to any symbol they can consistently recognize (and even some they can't!). it's probably more important that the visual language you use has internal consistency, and that different icons look different enough. bonus points for using symbols (icons) your users will already recognize without training

Hello folks, I want to learn more about Chinese mythology and am looking for recommendations (please no podcasts, but everything else media-wise is ok) to get into the topic. I know that there's no single China, but several cultural regions, and I know that the legend/tale of the three kingdoms is a big thing, but I only know the beginning of it (though Total War, lol). Feel free to drop your media recommendations in English or German, thanks!

@readsteven so you're in favor of those schemes to let people "tip" recipients of private messages, for instance

@izaya well possible for some subsets of program. I'm thinking of programs that could be represented by a lookup table

I have fiber optic internet service, yet I'm still, somehow, waiting seconds for web pages to load :blobhuh:

I eat raw lemon "flesh", but have only eaten the peel, pith, and a couple pips cooked (and I didn't like it).

@pounce so, they have some proprietary components and distribute under a non-open source license. I wouldn't say that's disqualifying if it's substantially open code. it doesn't make it a "scourge on humanity" either.

still don't see your point regarding other editors. that all seems like a problem for people who make cross-editor plugins: that's a pretty narrow group, nah?
