  • Yeah, I once watched a video that explained that one part of Feng Shui is to create a room layout that does not block the flow of energy, but you just substitute “energy” with “where people walk” and suddenly is makes sense. You identify the most frequented locations of a room, draw walking pathways that lead to and from each location, and make sure that you don’t have anything blocking those paths.

    Nothing revolutional, but I never thought about room design that way.

    Some C/C++ extension process once reduced my laptop to a crawl, and I couldn’t close VS Code, so I killed the process through the task manager, simple enough, right?

    Long story short, I started smelling burning plastic and saw that, somehow, there was no VS Code process, but the extension had a separate process that was still running at full speed doing idk what. I almost burned myself when I picked up my laptop. So I’m not very happy when I see VS Code













  • And that “no poop challenge” that was everywhere on lemmy about a year ago. Not sure whether that was a lemmy thing or wider, as I don’t use anything besides lemmy.

    I’m glad a local culture is growing here naturally, but I didn’t expect it to be beans, jeans and no poop


  • I know how you feel. I often find myself typing :w into notepad/word at work to save something. Or when I log into a machine that doesn’t have the vim extension in vscode I constantly type /something to search, only to realize that I actually wrote that in the file. Then using ‘u’ to undo just adds more characters and people look at me like I’m on some drugs. Just embrace it!

    :wq





  • I actually like the idea of being able to see how many upvotes/downvotes came from specific instances much more than seeing the actual users. It would cover some of the positives mentioned in the github discussion:

    -Could help fight bot and multiple-account voting (if we assume that people who make multiple accounts do it on the same instance)
    -Could help identify voting-patterns from specific servers (obviously)

    And then if something looks suspicious, the admins can already see who voted, so they could check out whether some user is abusing the mechanics.

    I find that this approach might be worth talking about, but making user votes visible to all seems very unnecessary.
