Good touch or bad touch?

I hear 'weary' used in place of 'wary', I don't think I've come across the reverse. Drives me crazy though.

Unless you bake some incriminating evidence into it.

Thank you! I've always heard the former and never felt it quite made sense. Now I understand why.

I think you're right. It's like the styrofoam of rocks.

I question that because its the stone age so what else could he have ordered? I kind of wonder if the joke is that its not a regular rock.

Do you mean 'scalded' as in the technique used for grain additions? Did you scald some or all of the khorasan before adding?

I have a really hard time believing the two metals differ enough in how much they contract in cold temperatures to make the balls pop out.

I know nothing about Norway but in the US in the early to mid 20th century, electric clocks used the 60 hz frequency of the electrical grid to keep accurate time. They even used to keep that frequency carefully calibrated for that purpose.

But a typical clock outlet is a touch lower then the one here and would never stick out like that. Often they were even set in a bit because you'd typically put the (big, round, analog) clock over the outlet to hide it.

 

So is this Thunder itself or some app it is deferring to whose config I should look at?

Basically videos start out dim for a few seconds until the video controls fade out. This means the first few seconds of every video are basically unwatchable, and with short videos this is all or most of the video. For example https://lemmy.world/post/17884719

 

Of the many Lemmy clients I've tried, Thunder is the one I like the best, but the one place I have nits is the creating a comment experience.

After typing the comment you have close you keyboard, to have any hope of the create button being visible (if your comment is really short) and then scroll all the way back up to the top. Isn't the bottom the obviously better place for this button?

Even worse, if in trying to scroll the screen, you accidentally hit the little horizontal bar at the top, you just lose your comment.

Finally, it seems to always lose my place in the thread and put me back at the top after entering a comment.
