TIL about the doorway effect a known psychological event where a person's short-term memory declines when passing through a doorway moving from one location to another when it would not if they had remained in the same place.

But the text on her shirt is "NO systemd". WTF is wrong with you guys? 🤯

@rvps2001 She not only failed to condemn, she was officially registered as his trustee on 2012 presidential re-election — the first one that broke constitutional limitation of two terms in the office. And otherwise endorsed him innumerous times. All that while living in Wien.
She's undeniably talented — some of her performances are simply breathtaking, but she's the epitome of hypocrisy 😩

@pernia
I sure am! We're on decentralized social media, who else am I supposed to be? 😜

Looks like Amfora won't be actively developed anymore.
It's a pity as it was one of my favourite Gemini browsers, and I'm sure not mine only. Although some of the reasons stated aren't ungrounded, TBH the whole post looks like a classic case of burnout, not real disappointment in technology, but I'm not judging in either case, I'm just sad :marseysad:

@metallcorn Да, выглядит вполне органично. Мне кажется свой там был во времена StarOffice, потом всё переделывалось на GTK, но что там сейчас не знаю — с одной стороны, в зависимостях GTK есть, с другой — я не знаю для чего GTK там используется, вполне возможно, что только для диалоговых окон типа «Открыть файл», вот эти панели инструментов на GTK совсем не похожи 🤔
Но может быть и так, что это просто тема такая. У меня нет ни Gnome, ни KDE и в целом LibreOffice использует тему GTK.

Damn, season 8 of Futurama is being released. I wonder how many South Park seasons have been released then, 40? 😱

@metallcorn
Последнее особенно странно, я почти уверен, что LibreOffice использует GTK 🤔

Был в Балашихе пару раз в гостях — каждый раз становился участником примерно таких событий 🤣

@useless_idiot @rvps2001
Yeah, exactly! But I have managed to sway my friends and family to install Element and make a matrix.org account. They can still have their favourite channels and mom chats, but at least now they have a backup — and it had already proven to be useful at both WhatsApp and Telegram go down at times. And when I have hardware to host my own Matrix server properly, it won't be hard to migrate them.

@rvps2001
But not Telegram😏
Its story is a bit weird actually, they have cracked down hard on it, I even took part in protests—against Internet censorship in general, but those took place right after attempts to ban T. and it was an important part of the agenda.
Soon after that the restrictions have been lifted and now even state-owned RosTelecom offers data plans excluding Telegram traffic, they definitely know the addresses now.
It's still a great source of info, but I don't trust it anymore.

@Bees I have a very similar cat family living with me and they sleep like that most of the time. Except my younger cat is my older cat's niece in human terms and she's a very lively girl compared to him. Sometimes he gets tired of her antics and likes to spend some time alone. Especially in summer when he can spend hours sunbathing alone on a balcony 😹

@vriska
Okay-okay, @meso is right — no one actually cares. Myself included, I even faved his earlier reply. I don't even know why I replied, probably have to learn how to control my urges better 😩

@pernia @meowski

@meso
No one — that's precisely why you replied, right? 😏

@pernia
Is the last sentence true for WINE though? And I don't really know how exactly WINE works, especially in its current form, but doesn't it just provide staind-ins for Windows libraries? So Guest system isn't really appropriate in case of WINE — there is no such thing, hence "not emulator", it only "emulates" the APIs 🤔
On some level, just knowing what the acronym stands for might make this joke funny, but if you go into depth, it's not 🤷
@meowski @vriska @meso

@pernia
Then you have nothing to lose. And nothing to fear but fear itself. And spiders.
And snakes 🤪

Here is an article about it on BBC's website in case some, like me, prefer to learn about it in text form rather than video: bbc.com/news/uk-66798508

A concept album about an organization offering “lifestyle- and industry-specific applications designed to curate a desired multi-experience,” Integrated Tech Solutions picks apart the charlatan language that hears app inventors put themselves on continuums starting with cavemen and continuing through da Vinci.

Looks interesting. Last album felt kinda bland to me with very few highlights. I hope this one will be better.
