Fun little side fact. That first video with the Shining parody is what inspired VSauce to start making YouTube videos.

As I understand it, LJ gave another developer his blessing to take a stab at Sync for iOS (I imagine with some sort of financial arrangement) but development had been very slow, and it never left TestFlight.

Furthermore, apps using the unicode versions of functions (which all apps should be doing for a couple decades now) have 32kb maximum character length paths.

The book that contains the story Arrival is based on, Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang, is my favorite short story collection.

Vonnegut's Welcome to the Monkey House is also a good short story collection.

Sync for Lemmy internal build.

It's good, guys. Real good.

Tomorrow is the google play signup form for everyone else (pending google approving it)

Masters of Doom is an amazing book about id's history. Not like, "good for a video game book". A legitimately good book for anyone.

If you're talking about the more limited set of options you get when you right click a file in Windows 11, just hold shift while right clicking to get the original options. You've actually been able to hold shift to get additional options going way back, I think to windows XP.

Just open https://m.lemmy.world on your phone then go to Settings then Install App.

The latest release added Lemmy support but it's pretty basic. It just let's you browse a specific instance as a timeline.

The sub headline is:

The price of the pill, which has not been announced, will determine how affordable it will be when it becomes available in early 2024.

What do mean? It's used pretty extensively.

What people call GIFs these days are almost always not actually GIFs. GIFs will usually have high dithering due to it using an 8-bit color palette and an odd frame rate because the per-frame delay is specified in jiffies so you can't really get normal framerates (especially high ones).

What dethroned GIFs was the <video> HTML element. The video format doesn't matter.

I've read that a high-end electrical tape like Scotch Super33+ doesn't leave residue, but I've never tried it myself.
