@lemmy.worldSo what's the deal with GNU? When I first saw it, I was sure the G was silent, or formed a dipthong, like gnat or gnocchi or gnaw or gnarly or gnome or just any word starting with gn in English. But IRL, I've only heard it pronounced with a hard G, same with Gnome.
Free outdoor seating is extremely common though, it's not that far fetched it could apply to deck chairs too
This is why I rarely get on board with new Google products nowadays. I know they'll get half assed support and then be killed off really quickly.
The sort of comeback so good you think of it later on and write a comic, wishing you'd said it at the time
If the system is such that it warrants periodic relieving, doesn't that signify it probably deserves permanent overhaul so it isn't possible to need to borrow so much in the first place
Usually they're building the website with browserlist and polyfills, and they specify how old a browser they wish to support, usually by analysing percentages of public usage, or they allow types only supported in newer browsers. Meaning if they use a feature only available in newer browsers, then it won't be automatically backported to support older browsers.
But that's only if they actually use those features, they're just available to them. And it'll only break in those places they do use them, which could be quite little of the site.
So often it's just "we can't guarantee it'll work in your old browser and enough of our users use newer browsers that we'll block you and not care".
Antarctic ice is actually expanding, despite global warming. Arctic ice is melting, but flatzoids think that's in the middle of a flat earth.
I have ad blockers everywhere, except native mobile apps. I've clicked on an Instagram ad for shirts. I bought the shirts. People keep complimenting me on the shirts. No regrets there
Time is weird. I've changed things up a lot in the past few years and I'm having much more fun. The few years before that seem like nothing. But now time is simultaneously so much faster (I guess more exciting, dragging less), yet so much longer (I guess many more unique memories).
