i felt the same way, but then i took a look at esports and something just clicked.

op’s just trying to make that happen so they can justify the “graphics not jraphics” excuse

In the meantime, there is a Joint Photographics Experts Group. I love me some deep fried jfegs!

Also “laser” as lah-seer

This is a jem of a response, but by jeneralizing pronunciations of acronyms only by the way they are spelt, you are opening a jigantic can of worms on etymology and linguistics.

The jist of it is that English is a weird language, jenerally descriptive, and there can be many correct answers to the same pronunciation problem.

As for me? I’m a choosy developer, and I choose jif.

Geoff is a gentle German giant with ginger hair. He’s also a germaphobe, though generally he’s still a genuine gentleman. You get the gist.

The A in amplification and E in emission are pronounced differently too, so the “correct” pronunciation would be “lah-seer”.

just wish people understood the difference between a paraphilia and a crime.

funnily enough, my twitter feed doesn’t have any conservative media.

it is full of gay bara scalie porn, though.

The same way creative professionals learn keyboard shortcuts for software like Blender, Photoshop, or Premier: practice.

It seems daunting, but honestly it’s not that difficult to adjust to using layers or chords on a smaller keyboard, especially when you can assign all those inputs to any key combo you want.

Chords and layers, my guy. Much in the same way you type a capital letter with a combination of two keys (shift + letter), people using smaller keyboards do the same thing for any key you deem “missing”, just with more keys being pressed. There’s even functionality where each key behaves differently depending on whether you tap or hold it.

Technically, you can have only 10 keys (one for each digit on your hands) and still get 2^10 = 1024 unique actions! Forget letters; you can have have whole words encoded in those keys, and voila ~ that’s basically stenography!

If you don’t like it, that’s okay! I’d never be able to use one myself either, but the people who can use it do like it; and besides, it’s all good fun to see what people can do with these layouts.

The QAZ keys on the right is a joke. This keyboard layout is called a QAZ/35% layout, where the Q, A, and Z keys are gone. The Esc, Tab, and Shift keys on the left side default to typing Q, A, and Z respectively, with further keys hidden behind chords and layers.

I believe OP is making this keyboard as a response to someone’s reaction to the QAZ board, right here on Lemmy.

To answer your question, many people prefer smaller keyboards mainly because 1. they’re gamers and want more space for their mouse, and 2. smaller keyboards minimize hand movements and therefore are more ergonomic.

“linux is hard” is a subjective opinion and he is entitled to it. it does not make it misinformation. he is free to express his frustrations at the learning curve, just like any learning curve in any other software.

you don’t. you can try to mitigate it by using less plastic yourself, buying local foods, whatever, but it won’t make much of an impact.

the less bad news is that plastic, by its own properties, is chemically relatively inert, so they’re really not that harmful. they’re still bad, mind you, just not all that hyped up to be.

Fun fact, BG3 only has a max of 4 body types per race, and the lower genitalia each have their own models to fit each body type, and that’s just for the “normal” sized races. The short races also have their body types, and so does the Dragonborn. Each armour and clothing piece has to have one unique model and rig to fit each of those body types; that’s a lot of modeling and rigging work.

Now how much gear is there in Runescape?

disagree with you on the photo quality claims; the increase in photo quality across generations is obvious. whether or not most people need that quality is another problem entirely.

i would happily settle for mid-2010 phone levels of photo quality if it means getting rid of the bump. alternatively, i would prefer to have a thicker phone with no bump; extra room for extra battery capacity.

balding < bald

just shave it. get a buzz cut if you’re uncomfortable. i know once my hairline starts receding i won’t try to kid myself by spending money on temporary fixes.

depends on the thing; i almost never actively switch programs and apps off their default light/dark modes, so if im used to youtube on light mode, im keeping it on light mode.

you uh… probably should not be on your phone while driving. stay safe, friend.

that’d be $4400 and $6000
