not sure if it counts as a command, but i use the up arrow to scroll through previous commands like, almost every time I open a terminal.

Are sewing machines the new beans?

real talk though, you could litterally buy two steam decks for the price if one ps5 pro.

Sony's EX president is the one who should be driving ubers.

I love my steam deck, but I'm also glad to see more competition in the handheld gaming pc market.

actually I found the joke to be funnier because it was litterally technically correct.

The meme is literally correct. when you make an audio file into an mp3, it takes some of the sonic information that our brains are bad at noticing and just...completely removes it(to save storage space). if it's a high quallity mp3 its essentially completely unnoticable. That's why it's psychoacoustic, it uses psychology to fool your brain into thinking it sounds better than it does, litterally.

Psycoachoustic is basically just a big word for taking into account how our brains deal with what we hear.

Also I'm not saying mp3 is bad, in fact I think the opposite is true. I think it's good to think of it like being the .JPG of audio, you're not getting the original quallity and that's the point and unless you need to do manipulate that audio file and its a reasonable quallity then you likely won't notice the difference.

Ogg vorbis (.ogg) is a better codec though IMO.

Hydrogen should be air, water, and fire.

Fun fact, the shinkansen(bullet train) in Japan has had no fatal crashes or derailments since its opening in 1964, and in case you forgot, Japan is constantly plagued by earthquakes.

I could be mistaken but I believe the hypothesis is that at one point the universe had an average temperature and matter distribution (pressure) to make it so that in most or at least a large portion of the universe it was significantly easier for organic molecules to start forming including the building blocks of DNA and then when it cooled/expanded some of that organic matter made its way to earth to eventually turn into life.

I wish I could turn the amazon ai generated bs in the product info search off permanently, as I only tend to use that search to figure out what actual people have said about the thing I'm looking at and I don't trust a LLM to not hallucinate some random bs for something important I'm trying to figure out thanks.

 
 

Its a shame that they did that, especially since the largest neurodivergent community on lemmy was over there, but for anyone who calls this instance or lemmy.world home I saw we make this the new one.

 

"Business Ready pilot edition to debut in 2024, replacing Doing Business ratings that were found to be influenced by political pressure"

 

"New legislation will mandate paid leave, prohibit non-compete clauses and bar captive anti-union meetings, among other measures"

 
 
 

I can't find any way to change the sorting of comments on a post, I can do this in the web up fairly easily though. I think this is pretty much the only think keeping me from using the app rn.
