My standard is “Fast Draw”. F-Droid

The only limitation is you can only have one widget. So if your home screen is typically widget-heavy, this probably isn’t for you.

It also only sorts apps alphabetically, but that’s how I like it, so isn’t an issue for me.

I don’t even remember how I learned about Meshtastic. It was just one day I’d never heard of it and the next day I was obsessed and had multiple radios to play with. How I got there? Total mystery.

Star Trek lied to us about the competency levels of our co-workers.

Kayhla, but spelled in very complicated ways for zero reason. A machine wouldn’t do that even if it was trying to force an awkward acronym.

The irony there is that there’s a link between microplastics and Parkinson’s.

I have an Omega Molecule joke, but we’re not allowed to talk about it.

Both from 30 Rock and it’s a tie between Elizabeth Banks’ Maryland accent and Julianne Moore’s Boston accent. To be fair, they were both intended to be terrible.

Link for both

For ones that aren’t intentional, I wish they’d have just had Melanie Liburd’s character be British in Dark Matter because it would not have made any difference to her character’s backstory at all. She does okay with the future space Canadian accent but it slips constantly.

And the trend of that same design trickling down to FOSS projects because “that’s what people want, apparently” is also (mildly) infuriating.

It’s not an “or” situation. It is and always has been an “and”.

My gripe is with people refusing to do anything on a personal level because “what does it matter when X industry pollutes more in 5 minutes than I do in a year?”.

As a current web developer I’m with you except for the tables. I hate tables with a burning, fiery passion.

I do like responsive design to account for mobile, tablet, and desktop so I try to blend that with classic “just works / just here for the data” layouts and generally minimize the flash in favor of the content. In other words, my projects go to a lot of work to look that simple lol.

No one seems to know exactly what “modern” means when it comes to “modern design”. If you ask ten different developers, you get 11 different answers.

My rule of thumb when I see “modern design” touted as a feature is that the developer chose form over function at every turn.

I get what you’re saying and the “individual carbon footprint” is often used to blame shift to regular people just living their lives, but we do still have a carbon footprint. It may be a tiny, rodent-sized footprint compared to the Kaiju-sized ones of big industries, but our actions and choices do have an effect (especially collectively).

I just don’t like dismissing the individual carbon footprint as total propaganda because it’s not wrong (though I acknowledge it is abused). Dismissing it like that just puts out a defeatist “nothing I do matters” message when our individual choices do matter and add up.

Can you live a totally carbon-neutral life in the modern age? No, probably not. But we also shouldn’t throw the baby out with the bathwater and do nothing.

Metric for most measurements except temperature (Fahrenheit - same reason you gave) and colloquial distances/velocities (e.g miles to the store, miles per hour).

As someone who is lactose intolerant but still loves cheese:

Yep, that’s the one.

I’ll reserve a phone but not a truck, lol. Looks like those are scheduled to be out late 2026, so probably at least next year before I can even think about getting my hands on one.

At least it’s still a thing.

I used to drive a 2004 Ranger and loved it. Would absolutely love an EV version even if the range isn’t super great. Mostly need a truck occasionally and for hauling stuff from the home improvement store or if I find furniture at a garage sale or something.

Need to check and see if that $20,000 no-frills EV truck is making any progress.

I never had one but they had them at school. Thought they were the coolest thing ever and also assumed digital because CDs were starting to become popular.

“What if it won’t turn off?”

“What if it won’t turn back on?”

“What if the valve just snaps off and sprays everywhere?”

Yep, I understand completely.
