55·7 days agoIt’s even worse than that and I’m going to ruin the illusion: it’s liquid in a can shaped glass.
You mean you passed last Christmas?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do you personally believe in your religion?
211·10 days agoI used to, because my parents did and I went to church and all that.
But then I started to actually think about it.
Now I don’t believe in anything supernatural.
There are parts of nature we don’t understand (yet) but I don’t think there’s any ‘higher power’ that created the universe, and especially not earth or humankind specifically.

Games@lemmy.world•What game is a guilty pleasure of yours?English
2·11 days agoAh, I got into the dailies immediately in both games, just part of playing for me.

41·11 days agoFor me it’s Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail. It would be super easy to whale out and spend a bunch of money to get the characters and weapons I want, but I (almost 100%) limit myself to the basically fixed monthly costs.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•What are some of the worst code you have seen in a production environment?
19·11 days agoI once saw an ‘encryption’ function where the key had a range of 32. Not 32 bits. I mean there were 32 different keys. And it was prepended as the first byte in the stream, so the decryption function didn’t have to go out of the way to find it.
Thankfully I noticed that it got torn out and replaced with real encryption at some point.

2·12 days agoMods and admins also delete posts. I have some comments I really liked that nobody can see the context of now because the post got deleted.
And entire instances can vanish.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL Thanksgiving was moved earlier so Christmas shopping could start sooner.English

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL John Williams (star wars composer) wrote the original theme song for Gilligan's Island. (and it's calypso!)English
3·15 days agoOne of my favorite little bits of trivia for such a list is that it includes the NBC News theme.
I was going to go for “Ouya trying to fool with this post?”

Technology@lemmy.world•It's your fault my laptop knows where I amEnglish
8·16 days agoI actually had to do that with my phone’s hotspot name because I used to play Pokemon Go on a tablet which was Wi-Fi tethered to the phone. Before I renamed it to opt out, the game would randomly jump me to wherever the network had last been scanned any time the tablet’s GPS got too flaky.

Android@lemdro.id•Google releases its 'Google Sans Flex' font to the publicEnglish
19·17 days agoWhy is it still considered acceptable to make I and l look the same? I get that “Sans Serif” means avoiding dangly bits, but it doesn’t have to be absolutely 100%. At the very least they could be different heights.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you were forced to play one professional sport as your job until you were 65, which would you pick?
2·17 days agoAlso good. I can reach over the net in that one. (Doesn’t mean I can win, just not lose as bad)

4·17 days agoTable Tennis. (A.K.A. Ping Pong, but that’s actually a trademark)


I generally like music, some kinds more than other kinds. I’m especially fond of novelty music such as Weird Al.
But I don’t usually go out of my way to listen to music. Not even when driving. (But my wife sometimes does which I enjoy.)
But really it’s just not a big part of my life.
