Do you copy/paste with one hand or two?

Who gives a flying fuck what others think? Fuck that egotistical bullshit.

Isn’t egoism kinda the opposite of caring about what others think?

I agree, but I don’t think that’s gonna happen soon, sadly.

I guess they’re saying the workers will get lower pay/ no raises because of the increased operational costs.

My best guess would be that the customers will have to deal with higher prices, though.

Elections in the US aren’t really all that fair TBH.

Researchers at the Brookings Institution agree that the strategic manipulation of our electoral process is largely to blame for the erosion of US democracy in recent years. Brookings says this manipulation takes various forms: the intentional addition of administrative barriers to voting, unfairly drawing electoral maps, the subversion of the election certification and counting process, and the violent coup attempt on January 6, 2021.

The United States is experiencing two major forms of democratic erosion in its governing institutions:

• Strategic manipulation of elections. Distinct from “voter fraud,” which is almost non-existent in the United States, election manipulation has become increasingly common and increasingly extreme. Examples include election procedures that make it harder to vote (like inadequate polling facilities) or that reduce the opposing party’s representation (like gerrymandering).
• Executive aggrandizement. Even a legitimately elected leader can undermine democracy if they eliminate governmental “checks and balances” or consolidate power in unaccountable institutions. The United States has seen substantial expansions of executive power and serious efforts to erode the independence of the civil service. In addition, there are serious questions about the impartiality of the judiciary.

I’m pretty happy with all of those

If you (or any passerby) happens to like German hip hop, I can only recommend Pöbel MC.

There’s plenty of games with low hardware requirements

I recently learned this and bought one of those sieve tongs , but because I still have a bunch of tea bags left over, I opted to just rip them open and put the tea in the tongs. Works like a treat, once you figure out how to rip them without spilling everything lol

Having more beautiful and structured URLs. I suppose for those cases it’s more of a preference, and with the tooling I use (.NET) it’s not too difficult to achieve.

I guess my gripe with your original statement was that I was thinking mostly of state like user login etc. I have to concede it’s not totally garbage for the cases you mentioned.

omg thanks for this

have multiple routes point to the same endpoint, dynamically adding the parameters serverside

I disagree. I definitely prefer REST APIs that use the file path for searches, filters, sorting. You get most if not all benefits from query parameters, and if done correctly it is just as clearly readable as query params.

Oops, must have overlooked it. Thanks!

As a WebDev… URL parameters are definitely not the place to keep state… Were not in the 00’s anymore. They do have legit uses, but we have JS localStorage nowadays.

There was another app, but that was a closed beta and I just couldn’t find it until I searched for the full package name, not just the display name. So yeah, boost is th e only app I’m having issues with so far. Which really surprises me, too.

Oh, nice! That’s definitely valuable info. Personally, I do think it’s too much work to implement that properly, though.

Fair enough, I haven’t given that too much thought myself until now. After playing around with Firefox’s URL cleaning, I realized there are some parameters I want to keep. So, by clean I mean removing all unnecessary parameters in the URL.

For example, https://youtu.be/jNQXAC9IVRw would become https://youtu.be/jNQXAC9IVRw, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw keeps it’s parameter, because it is necessary.

I guess replicating the logic for deciding which parameters to keep is not trivial, so the easiest solution is probably just manually pasting links into firefox, and just copying them cleanly from there. Thanks for providing some code, though!

ahh well, guess that is my !wooosh@lemmy.world moment of the day
