These do not look like they are anywhere near 200 years old.

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.

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

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.

You don’t even have to save that link. In the online version of lemmy at least it says “Modlog” at the bottom of every page.

I think seeing how fast many people turn into people they would not have liked when they were younger. It’s probably part of growing up but many people seem to not remember what they wanted to do better than their parents.

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.

I feel like consuming any “performance enhancing” substance on a regular basis just leads to needing more and more of it for the same effect. So it would probably be better to use it for “special occasions” where you definitely need the effect. But I have no idea if this is actually how all that works.

Oh, that’s a great idea. I’l probably build this even if I never get the house with the landing strip.

A landing strip for model aircraft with lights.

What a legend.

This one

And then the same dude asked…

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.

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.

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.

Yeah and then in the next section they reveal that you have to use to official Reddit app to even be able to do anything with your points. It’s a joke.
