At very least there's an OCX for InteractiveHtmlView or some stuff. It's how South Korean banks apps run. I think even the EU-specific "unbundled IE" versions still have that ActiveX / OLE control registered, though it might be crippled.

On my phone? All the damn time, since I use a lot of jargon and shorthand that it doesn't understand, as well as a few neologisms. But, I'm a much worse typist on my phone.

On my Linux desktop or $dayjob's Windows laptop? Almost never, as it is much less aggressive about replacing what I typed.

Although, he admits in the video to "faking" his footage of it working, by using a off-camera heat source. (His batteries were quite dead.)

But, as someone that lived through this time, they did work, as long as you pressed hard enough in the right places. It was hard to tell if the battery was dead or if you weren't pressing hard enough

Bones evolved for the first time: "485 Ma First vertebrates with true bones (jawless fishes)" -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_evolutionary_history_of_life (Vertebrates existed without a bony notochord before then.)

But the Appalachians were started much earlier: "The geologic processes that led to the formation of the Appalachian Mountains started 1.1 billion years ago." They were basically finished growing by the time bones existed: "Around 480 million years ago, geologic processes began that led to three distinct orogenic eras that created much of the surface structure seen in today's Appalachians. [d] During this period, mountains once reached elevations similar to those of the Alps and the Rockies" Since then, it's just been wearing down. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appalachian_Mountains

I like it, but I like most Mtn. Dew flavors.

Definitely inspired by peach tea, if that helps.

The whole reason I got on YT Premium was because it was free with Google Play Music. I have real issues watch non-Premiun now, because I've always disliked advertising methods. (Not so much th ads, which can be entertaining, but just being shown content I didn't request instead of the content I did request.)

Have you tried Sweet Lightning? It's a KFC exclusive flavor that hasn't escaped containment the way Baja Blast escaped Tace Bell.

Plaid effectively admitted to stealing your transaction history and selling it to the highest bidder in the past. There was a settlement and they agreed to not to that in the future

Just don't ever share your password, and certainly not your banking password, and definitely not with Plaid.

I am impatient with long descriptions, but I do find that in a minority of cases, the description does lead in to a distinction that I would not have intuited.

I try to reflect on that during long descriptions, particularly ones that are highly redundant with something I remember.

Ribs. I don't mind saucy ribs. I suppose if you are supposed to use your hands, maybe it's okay if they get a bit saucy.

I don't really like buffalo wings. I know boneless wings are basically just "nuggies", but I prefer them, especially if things are getting saucy.

A dry spice blend can make for acceptable wings, but I actually still prefer something like a spicy breading and a bigger piece of chicken, if I'm going to have to deal with bones.

But, I will admit that is a good border case, and isn't quite the sin that shrimp w/ tail covered in cream sauce is.

GHC 9.10.1 is now available! (discourse.haskell.org)

On /r/Haskell there was a pinned, monthly thread so that people could ask questions without creating a new top-level post.

  • I'd like to increase traffic to here (or some other Haskell Fediverse threaded-conversation group). Do you think a thread like that might help?
  • Does pinning work here? It's probably not necessary given the posts/month currently, but I suppose it's something to keep in mind.
  • Anyone got a link to Lemmy/KBin/ActivityPub Haskell library that I could use to write a bot, or some other way to schedule a post for yyyy-mm-01T00:00:00Z ?
