It’s where a guy is raising both their hands with big captions “absolute cinema” (the meme is usually used when something funny or engaging is happening)

Interestingly, in my search for interesting rockish and punkish music, I stumbled across an artist called Kino, a Soviet-era Russian band (that sounds really good, you should check it out!). On the Kino-related subreddits, I found edited versions of the meme that replaces the man with Viktor Tsoi, the now deceased singer from Kino (RIP to him, car accident at a young age) and the caption is “absolute KINO”, since the band is named after the Russian word for “cinema”. This alternate Kino variant of the meme has cropped up in a few other places too, funnily enough.

Ooh yeah Prusa is great! The upgradeability of their printers sounds super cool. I unfortunately have a Bambu printer, and although they sell repair parts, they are going very anti-consumer with recent changes, blocking third party software (so I have mine set to LAN only mode, primarily to continue using OrcaSlicer)

I think that a majority of users on the internet down vote if they see content that is not relevant, breaks the community rules, or simply not very nice.

p.s. “no stupid questions” is a play on the phrase “There are no stupid questions, Timmy!”, but of course you still need to be polite and follow the rules

OK!

I understand that, modern advertising bots are a pain, but I promise I’m not one of those! I’m just a person who’s interested in cool tech and stuff. If it bothers you, do I need to remove the reference to Gulikit?

…what does that mean? How can something be both artificial and organic?

edit: To note, I’m not a Gulikit bot/advertiser/marketer. There are some things that I don’t like about the KK3 Max controller, like how it doesn’t have a removeable faceplate like many other controllers at a similar price range (e.g. GameSir Super Nova).

English really is a funny language

The short answer is, to “lose” means to have lost something (e.g. “Did you lose your keys?”, but in this case it’s electrons) while to “loose” is used to describe getting something to be able to move freely / unstuck (which could arguably be used to describe the loss of electrons in a material, since you’re rubbing them loose)

So both spellings can work :D

My question would be for what time zone? That seems like an important detail

The Philippines were named after a Spanish king, King Phillip, or Felippe in Spanish. Given that the country was first controlled by the Spanish for ages, then the Americans, I’m guessing that at first the Spanish name for both the people and the territory was used, but when the Americans took over, the English-ified name of the territory was used, while the Spanish name for the people stuck as colonial powers use the name for the territory more often? Perhaps the Filipino diaspora also plays a role in this. I don’t know, just my guess.

Pretty cool that both brands show the charging spec on the cable! Props to Startech in particular for labeling that the cables are USB 2 data transfer speeds

Looking at the reviews, the silicone sleeving of these looks pretty cool! And quite neat that Creator Warehouse is able to compete with the bigger brands while not having a ridiculous price tag, the prices seem pretty good actually (but shipping to many countries will be higher, which is understandable as a smaller company). Hopefully they become in stock soon!

Samsung S24 Ultra onwards have the anti-reflective “matte” coating (diffused vs shiny) while the S26 Ultra is the first with the dumb “privacy display” feature.

It’s neat tech, but it significantly reduces the resolution when enabled, it has worse viewing angles when disabled (since half the pixels are less visible when viewing side on) and the feature is done better with a cheap screen protector. Pretty cool that you can use it for notifications, but I think that’s the only part-of-screen tinkering you can do with it, it’s that or the whole screen, so you could just set the notifications to hide message contents?

Math rock is a thing? Quick search tells me that unfortunately it’s not actually about (aboot) mathematics, darn. Pretty neat music though!

If you ever want to try LibreOffice, try using the “tabbed” interface by going to the “user interface” option, then it will look more similar to that! If possible, I would recommend using ODF over MS doc formats (ODT, ODP, ODS vs DOCX, PPT, XLSX). MS Office opens them fine for the most part (aside from specifically PowerPoint on web, it renders reduced opacity images weird! Everything else seems fine though) and the document format isn’t proprietary. Bonus points that it makes it easy to differentiate files (odt is open doc text, odp is open doc presentation, ods is open doc spreadsheets! MS office extensions aren’t standardised at all), downside is you have to try hard not to call presentations “ppts”

Looking up that, it looks pretty similar. The current one has a sword right through the middle, perhaps that was added later? I couldn’t find anything online about a swordless blackarch logo though. This seems like the closest answer - but why have an old blackarch logo and no regular arch logo?

No wonder. Some rich guy must have got very upset. Strange though, plenty of people get punched all the time, and there are plenty more GIFs people getting punched. Banning specifically the Nazi guy getting punched isn’t good PR I think…
