Exactly. I find that I sign the back of checks and write brief sentences in birthday cards. Neither of those feel like they’ll be around for a lot longer.

Fair enough. Most people don’t encounter analog clocks anymore. And many of us have smart watches or phones where we check the time. Since I have a non-analog watch, I don’t find I ever look at analog clocks anymore. If it’s in a room, I just don’t notice it. Growing up, it was important to know, but now I just never have a use for it. Learning is important, but there are so many more interesting and useful things to learn.

You could also make an argument about automatic or manual cars. Sure, we could teach our kids how to drive manual, but why? Most cars are automatic. If they want to have a manual car, they can learn. Otherwise it’s just a useless skill.

There are fewer and fewer applications for writing, but it’s still more important than reading an analog clock.

I actually agree with you. I can read an analog clock, but what worth is the skill? Most clocks are digital, and it gives me nothing more to read an analog one. People downvoting you is just silly. Some skills are allowed to die out if they add no value in modern life.

I’m willing to bet that they’re using the same Barbie character in the same universe as what Greta and Margot created. It’s well within their rights, but it’s just a bit rude not to include them or even get their input.

Not the thing you want to do if you want their involvement in a sequel live-action movie.

It’ll take so long before you can even leave your physical ID at home and count on everyone accepting your digital one. And it may never happen that people stop accepting your physical one.

It’s so people can trial having digital IDs. Some TSA and others can scan the new IDs, but not everyone can. So in the meantime, you have to carry your physical one too.

People are pointing out potential negatives, but this has some good possibilities for privacy too. If you show your ID at the liquor store, there’s no need for the clerk to know your name or address. The scanner can just verify your age.

White to black, because people say that white and black aren’t colours.

But I just say “FFFFFFuck y000000u!”

Everyone’s talking about the tech, but I’ll talk about the user base. When you make a post or comment on Reddit, it often feels like you get lost in some black hole of other posts or comments. No one sees your comment because there are 1000 other comments on the same post.

At Lemmy, there are fewer users and fewer comments, but your comments actually get seen. People upvote. I weirdly get way more upvotes at Lemmy than I did at Reddit, in spite of the smaller user base here. Because of that, I’m way more active here than I was on Reddit.

Hahhaha. Totally missed that. I just assumed it was a joke.

Makes sense.

1. Create a massive rocket
2. Burn a massive amount of rocket fuel to get it into space
3. Surround the comet ice in enough artificially made heat resistant materials so it doesn’t burn up in the atmosphere
4. Use more rocket fuel to angle the giant ball of ice so it doesn’t burn up on re-entry
5. Burn some more fuel to slow down its descent once inside the atmosphere so it doesn’t crash into the earth, ending all life in the immediate area
6. Drop the ball of unsalted ice in the ocean

You can also use a custom UI. I recommend VueTorrent.

In fact, using this mod, you can even have Docker download it and keep it up to date. In qBittorrent you just need to change the WebUI location to /vuetorrent.
