If it's a niche it should probably have a dedicated community for it: e.g. c/cooking@lemmy.world
Personally I did like the button sewing post, maybe that is generally useful enough that everyone should know. But I'm already in a few repair/DIY community that never get enough posts, and I've just found a 'Sewing, Repairing and Reducing Waste' one where it'd fit too.
Maybe it could be tolerated but should have a tag like [NICHE] in a title and a recommendation that OP should cross-post it as a way to promote/ support the other communities.
'Do' do be doo-doo. /jk (and not 'proper' grammar for anyone still trying to figure it out.)
Like the Sly Stallone comment in demolition man about the Schwarzenegger library.
hand sanitiser probably works.
Favourite book?
Don Key-ote.
I thought applet came first. Then "web apps" - but i think that's a windows perspective.
This claims they came from NEXT which apple bought in the 90s. https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/when-did-programs-become-apps.136416/
The thread also refers to bitmap image files as bumps which I'd still do if I ever saw a bump again. So the thread is legitimate.
Even the airline check in person doesn't bother to check/count the tickets.
Before 9-11 it was pretty easy to get on a plane I guess.
Not even the Suzuki Swift?
Those family guy writers will surely stop picking out idea balls now.
Yes the first thing to cut out is the "unearned income".
Higher income linked to real work / productivity is unlikely to be as big a problem unless the higher paid/skilled workers start gathering market power and controlling stuff (unearned income like a monopoly premium).
But the original thought experiment seems cart about horse to me - the work and product comes first, coins come along second to make it easier to specialise and trade.
White background? Interesting.
"Americans" is a stupidly large and diverse population to say anything meaningful about. It's extremely unlikely that that any population of humans of such a size doesn't include some individuals who are more extreme than you, both more and less, for almost all traits.
You're less likely to observe introverts than extroverts because one of those types will tend to do things in a way that are less likely to get your attention. You might well be experiencing observation/selection bias, possibly also reinforced by confirmation bias.
But whatever you think to be the "typical", even if you could estimate it using some unbiased sampling method, it is often not a helpful way describe the whole population, or at best a reductive "average" that has limited useful applications.
TLDR - human populations are diverse. I don't think any nation has ever effectively brainwashed or eugenicised their population into a single homogeneous group.
You've got to stop all those who put: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
That's my password for most things, any hackers die of RSI before they get in.
Does that say "Sir Ballin' wielded the Lance of Longpenis"?
Modern depictions aren't pron enough.
At least those are handling actual data you're doing serious work with.
Chrome is something I'd mostly be using for a few bits (well maybe Kbits) of reference text. I blame the websites as much as chrome itself. I assume the OS is smart enough to cache that somewhere though when I want the ram for something else.
MS teams is just siting there eating c.1gb for nothing but to be an annoying pos. Outlook doing the same but not as much resources I think.
But it's true when I have to kill a task it is much more likely to be one where I've knowingly put several GB of data into ram to do stuff with.
The ifixit toolkit has it - well with a hex shank.
But the last time i actually opened that hatch, i had to split a sliver off a wooden stick (coffee stirrer).
Well, its on lemmy and you're several comments deep.
You're almost bound to hit a vein of unsolicited socialism/communism by that point - it's basic geology.
It seems to me that quite a lot of people want flies and that's why quite a lot of resources are put into that type of shit.
I was trying to explain to this dude in the pub - who didn't understand my explanation that I don't have a hairstyle - that I thought vanity was a waste of resources, and he looked at me like: "but everyone wants to look good, right?" He was confused. I was confused.
