They seriously gave people a placebo for pain after surgery? That sounds horrible.

My grandmother died in a car accident in the early 70s. My mother still has her purse. In it, there is a receipt for her last rent payment (for a house, not an apartment) which was something ridiculously small, around $35. This was rural Tennessee.

Well, thank goodness the riots worked and the USA was never forged.

(This is a joke, and I know nothing about the riots and their effects.)

Everyone knows if you let another man touch your balls, you're gay. He had to do it himself.

Kinda looks like Darren is about to ink.

Bruh, my nephew... They had to delay his circumcision because the poor guy's member was "too small." I tried to convince my family members that they should just not do it.

But, no. They waited until he was big enough and went ahead with the circumcision. This was only about 13 years ago.

At no point in the geological record has atmospheric carbon increased this quickly. We do not know if the systems can adapt quickly enough. Just because it's not going to happen in my lifetime does not mean it's not going to happen.

It kinda is the end of the world though. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves into the ocean, making it more acidic. When it reaches a certain point, marine life starts dying. Complex terrestrial life won't last long without it.

Not today, maybe not even this century. But, eventually.

Steam should still have grey as a user interface color option.

I can just imagine my whole-ass piano glaring at me while I use my computer to play midi music!

Thanks for the reply. I might try that out.

 

It's a fresh install of 15.6 Leap that I downloaded and installed last night. Device is a 1st generation Surface Go. I just can't seem to get the onscreen keyboard to stay up when I swipe it up from the bottom.

Also, the keyboard does not appear when I click a text input box.

I thought maybe the long click of swiping up was triggering a right-click, but the problem persists when I disable the long-click option in settings.

I'm stumped. Everything else is working great. I really like that long-click right-click is working, and this is the first Gnome distro I've tried where Firefox touch-scroll works out of the box. And, in general, the system seems faster than other gnome distros I've tried. (The device isn't exactly a powerhouse.)

Thank you in advance for any replies.

 
 

Hello all!

My new phone (Moto G Stylus 5G 2024 running Android 14) keeps giving me this alert that an app is giving full screen notifications. The app in question is the freaking telephone app, which I of course want full screen notifications from! There's no option to disable the alert. (The two choices are "go to options" and "not now," by the way. And "go to options" takes you to the telephone app's notification settings.) I cannot seem to find a setting related to this, and I've disabled every Motorola app (including system apps) that I can find in the app list. Although, some of them don't allow disabling.

Anybody familiar with this by chance? I'm getting this stupid alert for every other phone call.

Thank you!

So far, I'm liking it. I rinsed it out before using, and there was trace amounts of blue ink already in the pen. Mysterious.

I filled it with Noodler's Heart of Darkness, and it writes very smoothly. Left it sitting overnight, and it continued writing smoothly this morning with no hiccups whatsoever. Very nice! It's supposed to be a "fine," but it really seems like more of a "medium" to me. It comes with a piston filling cartridge converter which didn't seem removable at first, but it just slides out if you pull on it a little.

I got it from AliExpress, if you're wondering. It will surely be available on eBay soon enough.

 

I tried to make my duplicate as different from the original as possible, but they fell in love anyway

 

I've tried to find them to no avail. I'm guessing the box sets just aren't made anymore, but I figured it's worth asking in case there's some obscure one out there somewhere.

To clarify, I'm looking for a more recent Linux version. I know the older ones can be found on auction sites and the like.

 

I remember finding them on the Internet somewhere in the early 2000s. I remember that Kimi was one of them, so it would have to have been after the second movie (Rugrats in Paris). Anybody remember these things? I can't find any details about them online.

When I am making a post or a comment through jerboa, I am having a weird issue where if I backspace/delete, the text of the word I'm writing will combine with the word before it.

As an example, if I type

The quick brown foz

And I backspace to fix the typo, I get this

The quick brownfo

If I keep backspacing to fix the problem, it keeps combining words like this

Thequickbrown

It's very annoying and sometimes I have to delete entire sentences and start over. Also, if I have a wall of text and click somewhere in the text to make an edit, sometimes it will keep typing where I was before. Also annoying.

Does anybody else have this issue? It could be a product of my keyboard, which is Open Board from F-Droid. But I usually only have issues like this when trying to type my information into websites that aren't designed for mobile. (Fennec, if it matters.)

 

I chose my instance 9 or so months ago purely because it was suggested by the Jerboa app at the time. In lieu of making numerous accounts to access communities that aren't federated with my instance, I was hoping to make a second account with a very "federated" instance. Any suggestions?

Despite being here for a while, I've mostly been a lurker til recently and haven't learned a lot. Thanks in advance.
