Humans are afraid of death. Thus we don’t like to talk about it. Thus being more afraid of it. Thus treating it as an exception.

That’s why I love Caitlin Doughty’s YouTube channel

Nice try, Mengele

just all the videos from your subs in order of most recently uploaded.

What’s the difference to https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions ?

Edit: It’s a genuine question. Is there a functional difference, or simply privacy reasons?

Not really, I would just pronounce that the (mostly 😅) correct French way. Because the Swiss German “Omelette” pronunciation is a butchered version of the French one (I guess), and sounds more like Ohm-uh-let-uh [ˈɔməlɛtə].

Omelette or Crêpe in my area (Swiss German).

I’m actually not really sure what the difference is (if any), but I personally usually use Omelette for salty ones and Crêpe for sweet ones. OR Omelette for those made in a frying pan and Crêpe for those made on a Crêpe iron/plate (whatever that is called). OR Omelette for the thicker ones (>=5mm) and Crêpe for the thiner ones.

I also know the German term Pfannkuchen, but if someone uses that, then I immediately assume they’re from Germany. It’s not really used by Swiss people as far as I can tell (at least in my area).

Desk and chair optional.

I should defrost my French skills.

Wow, you have some very old kids 😵😆

does anyone know why ubuntu-latest.torrent would try to download 22 instead of 24 LTS?

ubuntu-latest.torrent (what’s written after -o) is the output name. You should be very careful with executing commands that you don’t fully understand. Might save you a lot of trouble in the future.

In German:

• “Je X, je Y.”

statt eines davon

• “Je X, desto Y.”
• “Je X, umso Y.”

Because in terms of features/usability it was a downgrade from Skype for Business for my usage.

Sorting the contacts was better in Skype and I was able to have the window as a narrow strip on the leftmost screen, for showing the status of all team members. Teams doesn’t allow resizing freely.

When watching a screen share of somebody, Teams has a lot of unnecessary unhidable UI elements that just take up space. For the ones that you can hide there is no setting to have it that way by default, and there are also no shortcuts for them.

Also screen sharing was quite laggy right after switching from Skype, but that might have been an internal IT problem, not sure. But it didn’t help make Teams more popular anyhow.

Does anyone have the link to the blog post?

That’s also very true, unfortunately.

It should never be “Do we need religion?”, it should be “Do I need religion?”. Some people might need it, but it doesn’t need to be pressed upon others.

Yo dawg, I heard you like try-catch blocks

What kind of “bikini model” were they looking for? 😏

Ah no wait, that’s Limmy not Lemmy, my bad.
