I mean, I actually do think there's significantly more supply than demand in this case. The thing is, you typically want some semi-credible backstory why these people know each other well enough to have the hots. And for that, stepfamily is really quick to explain and you can just film in someone's house...

Apparently, it's right-wing trolls who made up this non-binary thing. So, you are correct, but it came from the other side of the culture war.

They're not talking about language with the male-as-default, but rather for example this:

The depiction with less discerning features is what we assume to be male. If you want to express female, you have to add a dress or long hair or curves etc..
There's actual scientific research on this bias existing, although I don't know in what way this extends to animal depictions.

There's also analog computers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_computer

Alas, they got largely displaced by digital computers...

These days, you also likely get faster loading times when you self-host the font, because it can be sent through the same HTTPS connection and because caching doesn't work anymore like it used to many years ago (cached files aren't shared anymore between websites).

I'd guess, it's the authtoken cookie, since that has the right kind of expiry date for me and, well, makes sense from an OIDC perspective.

I might see, though, if the suggestion from @AlecSadler@lemmy.dbzer0.com maybe works. The Outlook webpage also redirects to outlook.cloud.microsoft since like, yesterday, which might've also unfucked things somehow? At least, I didn't get the logout loop, when I did try to test Alec's method just now.

So, web Outlook has had a bug with Single-Sign-On for many months now. It independently checks an own cookie, whether it should log you out, so it can happen that you log in via SSO and then it immediately triggers the logout flow of your SSO provider to log you back out.

Well, and when I say "can happen", I mean that this happens every single morning, unless I clear Outlook's cookies beforehand.
So, every morning before I start working, I hit Ctrl+Shift+H in Firefox to bring up the history, type "outlook" into the search, right-click an entry and then select "Forget About This Site" to clear the cookies.

Except, through the magic of doing this regularly, I've started typing just enough to make the Outlook entries appear at the top. Which isn't actually much shorter, but I noticed that I always just type "outloo".

Which sounds like a combination of "outhouse" and "loo". Which very much summarizes my feelings towards this Microsoft™ service, every time I have to do this. Which is every single morning. Fucking hell.

Ah, I meant that as in the individual hair have less circumference and therefore are easier to cut through.

I'm violently in favor of Big Light™. Really wakes you up, especially the flashbang when you turn it on. 🙃

Damn, makes it look like little gremlin hands...

Personally, I find it much easier down under, because the hair is a lot thinner...

The theme comes in three variants, "Soft Light", "Medium Light" and "Hard Light". Soft and Medium are even yellower. This is so often the case with Gruvbox themes. I just want a white background, is that so unusual? 🫠

(Yes, that's a screenshot of my terminal with the theme applied. Yes, I am one of those monsters that use a terminal with light theme.)

 

Always had the problem that if I wanted to just log an error, rather than bubble it all the way up to main(), that you wouldn't get a stacktrace. You could iterate the source chain and plug the stacktrace together yourself, but it's rather complex code.

Now I realized, you can do this to get a stacktrace:

let error = todo!("Get an error somehow...");
let error = anyhow::anyhow!(error); //converts to an `anyhow::Error`
eprintln!("Error with stacktrace: {error:?}");

For converting to an anyhow::Error, it often also makes sense to use anyhow::Context like so:

use anyhow::Context;
let error = error.context("Deleting file failed.");
 

In various point-and-click adventure games, you could enter natural language instructions, way before LLMs were a thing.

And for FMV-style titles, real actors got photographed and filmed to create much more photorealistic games than you could ever hope for with motion capturing, raytracing or by using two GPUs to implant creepy photograph snippets onto rendered gameplay.

So, clearly, we weren't ready yet for point-and-click games. 💩

Find's spannend, wie jung das Wort ist. Da hat nicht jemand vor Hunderten von Jahren mal "Ubuntus Clickus" gesagt und dann ist es durch Dialekte und Eindeutschung usw. irgendwie bei "Klickibunti" angekommen, sondern irgendjemand hat zu einem Zeitpunkt mal das Wort zum ersten Mal verwendet, und es wurde verstanden und weiterverwendet.
