So, I do not menstruate and don’t look like it either - can some affected people elaborate please? Does this happen more with male doctors or female?

That said, I also had situations where my reason for coming in was very clear but the healthcare person (not always an actual doctor) just had to go through that list of questions even if they obviously had nothing to do with the issue, but I did not perceive it to be a gendered issue.

I feel the car owner so hard… 😭

😚👌

Sounds like what these idiots did during Jan6.

All in all it’s just another brick in the wall.

It might take a while, but we will get you all.

crossover supergroup including Tony Foresta from Iron Reagan/Municipal Waste and Paul from Cannibal Corpse.

I didn’t know that. How is that music anything other than Punk? OK, the drummer is a little too good maybe, but that’s not exclusionary.

I guess it doesn’t matter either way but I very rarely like anything that is labeled ‘-metal’.

PS: judging from the upvotes there must be one more person who knows.

Nice. A random find for me, either here on lemmyverse or Bagel Radio.

Heaven’s Gate

Thank fully I now associate an excellent Florida Punk band with that term.

Sounds like whoever decides these things knows nothing about IT.

I guess as a user I just don’t want all my apps to open a tab in my browser. I want to move apps between virtual desktops and monitors independently and I don’t want my app’s window to be clattered by all the menus from my browser.

All this is already possible with most browsers.

All major browsers can do this - with the exception of running something in the background I guess. But that is exactly the sort of usage scenario where an Electron app is the worst choice. Coding a separate utility with no GUI would be the sane thing to do here, not put whole browser stacks into memory.

It’s because people want cross-platform apps and web is the easiest way to do it.

Just use the website then? There already is a suitable browser installed on every system. But no, must have apps. Makes it easier to stop people from having opinions about data collection and such. And the full browser stack needs to be fully reproduced each time. It gets really ridiculous when these apps sit idly in the notification area. Not to speak of security implications because electron apps and such usually don’t get timely updates.

No, Razer, your “mouse driver” does not need to load Chrome at all times, when I’ll only ever look at it once.

It’s funny; on Linux such devices work perfectly but many users complain that they “aren’t supported” because there’s no UI (that sits uselessly in your notification area and eats memory).

I have attempted something like this with many different cats (I’m a slow learner). You’re not wrong, but I maintain that OOP’s cat is a minority here.

Oookay… I mean I get the impulse, but if I attempted this it would end with bloody hands. Very effective to un-impulse such desires. OOP must have a very patient cat.

edit: not saying cats don’t like to be loved; but it has to happen on their terms

If AI is truly an intelligence

And as of 2025 and the foreseeable future, that is where that argument ends.

I am not a Luddite.

doG, I can so relate to this.

The opposition (politically or socially, conversationally) will always try to put you in the extreme opposite corner of whatever they oppose about you. Be it “socialist dreamer” instead of real market economy with social policy, or this. What happened to meeting in the middle? It seems online polarization has made it into our everyday minds.

I get the point of your sarcasm, but seriously: it would still be just capitalism, within a state of law.

Seriously, why merge at all? I guess I’m being naive, but would WB really go under otherwise? Can’t we just have a significant number of competing companies?

On the topic of accidental poetry:

These didn’t start to manifest until the internet protocol suite was released as open source in 1989

To be precise, its source code was released into the public domain by the university who’d developed it. I’m not saying this to nitpick but because I couldn’t find info on this with the specific keywords “open source”.

I had so far always argued that the invention of the WWW & HTML (not completely simultaneously but almost) 2 years later was the beginning of what most people now call the internet.

It can’t be pinned down to a single moment, but to a relatively short (considering this was a global phenomenon) timespan.
