I think you meant "morale" instead of "moral."

When I got my first Rubik's cube, I never thought I'd ever be able to solve it in under a minute. I still can't, because it turns like garbage, but I got a 30 second solve on my MoYu cube recently.

My understanding is that admins already have access to see who votes. This feature is to make then visible to everyone.

I prefer wired for almost all cases. The reasons are threefold:

  1. It seems like the only Bluetooth headphones being sold lately are either tiny individual ear buds that are easy to lose or big bulky over-the-ear headphones. Right now, my preferred wireless ear buds are connected by wires to an around-the-neck device, and I'm worried I won't be able to replace them easily when they finish falling apart.

  2. Wireless ear buds are one more thing I have to charge. I already have to charge my phone, watch, game accessories, and vape. I don't need one more battery to manage.

  3. Latency makes it obnoxious to watch video with wireless audio.

Right now, the only use case for my wireless ear buds is when I'm walking the dog and don't want to worry about the wire bouncing around and getting caught on my clothes when I've already got the leash in one hand. The only reason I use Bluetooth in my car is because my old car had annoying feedback when I listened on the aux cable while the phone was charging. I'm considering trying aux again in the new car because the latency on the car's Bluetooth is even worse and I've found myself watching videos in my parked car while on break from work.

At this point, I could honestly see a library being better for fact-checking.

I saw all the announcements for Sync, and remembered that Sync for Reddit was my main app a long time ago. Couldn't recall why I switched to Infinity.

Downloaded Sync for Lemmy today, scrolled past about 4 posts before a box showed up that said "sponsored content." Now I remember why I switched.

ymfah is a mad genius, and everyone should check out his other videos.

I don't even care about the people who don't know which series is which. The whole joke is a fallacy to begin with, and I wish people didn't actually think it was true.

It always seemed like red shirts were most likely to die, but that's only because the majority of crew members wore red. Statistically, gold shirts have a much higher fatality rate.

The point of the dual boot is that you still have everything from before. When you turn on the computer, it'll ask if you want your old Windows or your new Linux.

I started a clean Windows install a few weeks ago. Upon first boot, I immediately deleted the program files folder for Edge in an act of defiance to Microsoft. I then realized I had no browser. Had to ask my son to put a Firefox installer on a flash drive for me.

3 days later, I found out that winget exists.

Thank you. It was my first time hearing the term.
