Evince (the standard GNOME pdf reader) has night mode that you can toggle with “Ctrl + i” by default.

Mont-Saint-Michel definitely was a special place. Already driving up to it and seeing it from a distance was surreal and then walking through this tightly packed place seemingly in the middle of the sea is unlike anything else.

I was very active on Reddit for a long time but for some reason I also don’t miss it. I think it’s because the big subreddits felt “too big” for quite some time before and even in the smaller subreddits there was often too much unnecessary negativity.

What are those shortcomings?

With that username I totally believe you wish for nothing more.

I also try to get along with a small amount of software and I also mainly stick with default configurations. It is a great feeling when setting up a new PC or a device that there is little need to install a bunch of software and mess with a lot of configurations just to get my learned workflow up and running. Therefore there also isn’t really a need to follow new software releases.

I guess it could be that it’s easier to build. You have a tower that only gives structural support and you have a gondola that only deals with all the rotation. In general it is difficult to have something that rotates and also carries a large load. And the rotating gondola technology is a solved problem. Plus you have a large rotor area that is always facing the wind instead of half your blade area going opposite to the wind. These are just guesses though.

I guess you mainly use Autocad for creating 2D sketches? Maybe Inkscape could already be enough for that. It’s not really made for engineering stuff but you can add plugins to add dimensions for example and make accurate drawings relatively easily.

It was an great moment when I learned that bangs exist. I only use two or three but it’s still amazing.

I use the progressive web app version and it’s all I need. the only thing i dont like is that you can no longer pull down on a post to refresh the comments. some time ago this worked but it doesn’t anymore.

it’s definitely harder than it may seem in videos. but I’ve seen people getting the hang of it in a few sessions in the sim. I’d say it you’re okay at flying in the simulator and close to actually buying a real done you could get FPV goggles and practice some more with them. it all depends on how determined you are too get into the hobby.

If you’re new to FPV flying and unsure I can recommend getting the controller first and practicing in a simulator. it will save you a lot of money since your first crashes won’t cost anything.

I read that some people on here go about it by blocking accounts that are repeatedly toxic. I like this approach since it directly improves your own feed and if a lot of people do it with time the reduced exposure these accounts get could improve the platform as a whole.

I did take all my notes for university on pen and paper because I don’t have a laptop with a touchscreen and pen. But I was never quite happy, since I would lose some notes or not find something specific that I knew I wrote down somewhere. This semester I tried using Obsidian and I and it has been great so far. I am now able to search my notes by text and I can back them up somewhere safe. When I’m not on my laptop I take quick notes on my phone but the important ones will then later be transferred to Obsidian.

This is the way. Maybe this should be shown to everyone who signs up and everyone should be reminded once in a while to keep up this system.

Since switching to Lemmy I use my up/downvote in a different way than on reddit. Upvote now means I think the comment/post contributes something valuable while downvote means the comment/post is unnecessarily unfriendly or just not contributing anything constructive.

What makes you say that there will never be “a poop knife”?

But that’s why federation is great. If you don’t like how one instance handles stuff you can move to any other instance that suits you or even host your own.

Don’t know if it really is the favourite one since I like a lot of cars but the Alpine A110 is definitely close to the top. It just embodies everything that I think a car should aim to be. Light, inexpensive, great handling, good looking.

I’ve never player truth or dare but I never wanted to because I didn’t want to tell people I hardly know very personal stuff. Not that long ago I learned that people apparently frequently lie while playing it, but honestly why are you playing it then?
