ah okay, i see. i will endeavor to do so then

oh of course - sorry, i forgot you could only mod someone who comments… i’ve commented under my latest post
might i ask why it would be preferable though? i have nothing against l.w (i was very happy w/ just a l.w acct.) but i moved to lemm.ee because i felt it better for the health of the fediverse? surely it’s better to spread the load?
yeah, that’s basically when i play most aaa games - when the mood takes me, but mostly ~10 years old. i’ve just recently finally played wofenstein new order, followed by the tomb raider legend trilogy (they’re really short), and i’ve now started on the tomb raider survivor trilogy
indie games i tend to play a bit sooner; partly because they’re cheaper and partly because i feel they’re more likely to use (and need) the money to make more games. although the last indie game i played was fez, and the dev of that has quit completely…
as a way to search inside communities: https://www.search-lemmy.com/ is in early development but it works surprisingly well usually
pretty unpopular opinion i believe, but i loathe them. they feel like installing apps from the windows store, but worse. i use them on steam deck and my laptop, but they often fail to launch with no feedback[1], won’t accept drag&dropped files, store their dotfiles in weird places, take up much more disc space (and therefore take literally almost 10x as long to download), won’t inherit the theme (i think because plasma stores the gtk theme in a non-standard place), etc. they feel like they’ve been designed to flout what os developers have built up over many decades and are just a struggle to use.
on steam deck particularly (so i know it’s not a configuration i’ve screwed up) no flatpaks will launch unless i launch them twice. even after that, there’s a long delay (~1 minute) and then two instances launch. i know this sounds like i should just wait until the first one launches, but that doesn’t work ↩︎
sublemmy is cute, trips off the tongue, and can be shortened to sub. community is more awkward to say, and shortens to comm or commie. c/ (cee-slash?) is just awful. until someone suggests something better (lemmons? lemmunities?) i’m going to keep using sublemmy
edit 2023-07-17. i have settled on lemmysphere. it is a pun, and i like it
thank you : )
you should! i started out with a much simpler jekyll generated site
meh, i’d say they’re obviously buttons from context (why would a calculator app just have a bunch of random unclickable symbols?). but assuming they don’t immediately read to you as buttons; md3 calc app only has 8 buttons: AC

. the rest is just exactly the same mess of text randomly laid out edit 2023-08-03: i have now looked at this image on a better calibrated monitor. the numbers actually do have background circles (why did no-one pick me up on this). however, this does prove my point about the complete lack of any contrast on anything
having areas is good as it allows the eye to do a sort of binary search: if i want a scientific function i’ll look in the white on blue, operators in blue on white, numbers in black on white; then search for the exact button i want. without that, everything’s an unorganised mess (for instance why are brackets in the same section as operators?), with some functions hidden in the v
button at the top right
also i’ve just noticed - how do the brackets work in md3? do you have to tap the button once to bring up a menu and then tap the bracket you want? or does it automatically insert one based on whether you’re inside a set? if it’s the latter, how does one do nested brackets?
personal opinion, i think padding is worse for delineating objects than a bit of colour; or just, like, a line. look at this example - there are four distinct segments on the left, whereas on the right they all merge into one and a half
padding is really useful, yes, but if you put padding on everything then what’s there to be separated?
yeah, i hated material ew as soon as it was announced. so much padding everywhere, and so little contrast - to paraphrase the incredibles: if everything’s orange, nothing is. i want actionable items to stand out, not be a slightly lighter shade of the same colour
i like it. i’m glad to see a bit of depth and personality coming back into the design à la mode
i imagine a fedisearch engine will come out that can search lemmy, kbin, mastodon, etc. efficiently; so instead of googling “how to x site:reddit.com”, we’ll just fedisearch “how to x”
in fact, i’m pretty sure i already found one but it wasn’t very good, and i’ve forgotten it’s name
have you got an 88x31 button? i’d like to link to this
(no worries if you haven’t, i’ll just use a text link)
i agree with almost all of this, but i just want to say:
How in windows 10 can I tell if a window has focus or not? In Win 3.1 to 7 and anything running on Linux it was easy: the title bar colour was different. But since Win 8 that was dropped, windows still have focus and modal dialogs but you, the user, can not determine which has what and when.
if you tick “show accent colour on titlebars”, windows does draw the current window titlebar distinctly coloured (so i guess it’s actually better than gnome in that sense)
ah nice i didn’t know about the double bang, thank you
is there a list of bangs available? because i just tried a few and none worked
yeah it’s dumb, i’d rather just search for a song but i can’t do that without loading about 7 ads, 3 of which are reasonably high def animated images
i don’t usually search for new songs when i’m out and about, but if i did this would probably put me off completely
the “risk” of false positives comes down to the consequence. if the consequence is being stuck in the slammer, don’t use ai. if the consequence is you can’t upload the image unless you manually appeal, or even maybe have to use an external image host; i think ai is fine
edit: ah bugger, wrong acct. ah well
