Has anyone used ReactOS IRL? Can it run Windows 10 stuff or isit still at Windows XP-level?

Bruh that 3d printer must have been huge

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 5 points 13 hours ago

That one's massive! Here in the UK we only had (have) fixed ones without motors.

That said I have seen Brasillian communities

To attract a partner. I'm sure the mares can't resist them

I think it's a bird

Nahh, I keep facing yesterday as I get dragged backwards into tomorrow, flailing and screaming

Ideal for postage

That's probably enough for its stupid mental health

Yeah. Also you Germans tend to give things very descriptive names (like this one) which I like. Nobody in England would think to call this a queue slicer, to us it'd be a turnstile.

I think it's been repealed btw. :'(

So essentially a 'queue slicer'?

Bruh. Why does German make so much sense

Technically these are all still Latin leters, just that they're written in a weird way that evolved from middle-aged Gothic handwriting as opposed to Latin directly which was the case with English cursive. This style of writing, along with the print-oriented 𝔣𝔯𝔞𝔨𝔱𝔲𝔯, was abandoned for the Latin equivalent by the Nazis for logistical reasons in 1941.

I'm completely inept at organizing changes in my life, which means I waste a many weeks being 'stuck' when I could be out living/working somewhere interesting/etc. I was watching Top Gear the other day and I realized that what I really need is to have 'producers' like they do on the show who take care of the logistics of things so that the protagonist can just sail through. I realize that this doesn't come for free so I would be willing to join a group where one such plan is made for the whole group, or switch to a job where having someone plan your life (at least the working part) is a requirement of the job. In other words, I am willing to trade some of my sovereignty/independence for this. Any recommendations? (Just for context, I am not in the US and I'm not old.)

 

I'd really like to study genetic engineering because I find it a cool skill. But at the same time, job positions for genetic engineers are few and far inbetween. So while I'd potentially be good at something few people can do (=high paying). If I studied something like law, I'd be much more flexible geographiclally in terms of finding employment. So I'm wondering whether to aspire to a more common career and take GE as a hobby that I'm studying, or if I should double down on GE and work in a café until I find a job in that. (I might decide I want to pivot away from GE once I learn it anyway.) What do you recomend?

 

Let's see if they make it into the Euros

 

I know depression usually has a grave cause and astronauts have quite an active schedule. But say their family dies. Depression makes you think and perceive time differently. Surely wouldn't it become a risk to the mission? You can't steamroll over it...

Does anyone know why I'm getting this when making requests to the lemmy api?

<html>
<head><title>403 Forbidden</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>403 Forbidden</h1></center>

</html>

The request in quesiton is a GET request to https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/post/list?community_name=asklemmy. It only happens when making the request to lemmy.ml, not to other instances. When I paste the url into my browser address bar it works.

 

Turning the tap on that nice bed-like environment is a real dopamine hurdle. And I keep getting lost in my thoughts. Bathrooms are practically stimulation-less spaces.
