The Information that the stick has begun to move takes time to travel through the stick. Kind of like bending, but not really.

There's a breed of incel who benefits from power tripping in community projects. Think reddit mods.

Slowly my Lemmy feed is becoming an RSS feed for comic strips. I don't know if this is a bad thing...

Should I be concerned about the coloration of these spark plugs? (lemmy.zip)

Bought this car second hand, they apparently put iridium spark plugs in, but i want to know if I should be concerned with the buildup and rusty appearance it's developed. For all I know this spark plug could be from 10 years ago.

Do I need to replace the plugs, and is that actually rust? Does this mean I have an issue with my head gasket?

Edit: Thanks guys! I'll be ordering some new plugs soon.

Other game launchers: "fuck Linux it's so small"

Valve: "everyone deserves to play games :)"

Cuba has the chance to become the world's first 100% Solar Powered Nation. Imagine if they ask China for help.

Hey guys! I just wanted to share a proof of concept real quick. No hate at all to GIMP or Pinta, but I just really love Paint.net as I've been using it for over a decade. And since I completely switched over to Arch a year ago, that means the only way I can enjoy using Paint.net again is if I add all the missing Direct 2D implementations. How hard could it be? 😅

As you can see, it's not perfect.. or even usable, but it loads without crashing! And that's good enough for me to call it quits tonight.

Whoa! Windows 7's market share surged, tripling in users last month (www.pcworld.com)
submitted 7 months ago by spicehoarder@lemmy.zip to c/technology@lemmy.world

As the article notes, the increase seems to be driven mainly by users in Asia, where recycling and reusing older hardware is quite common. I wonder if third-party companies are offering extended security patches there, which could make affordable second-hand Windows 7 machines more appealing for people who just need them for browsing or light tasks. It would certainly make sense given recent fiascos and Microsoft’s current stance on AI, especially with generative AI being used to develop system-level code.

Playing around with the reflections textures and some archival transparencies from some beta builds of windows 8. I can't help but feel this is exactly how this texture was meant to be applied to the explorer shell. Kind of like the office suite at the time, if any of you played around with the different textures you could apply there.

Screenshot information

Note: My change log claims to be version 1.2(which comes after 1.14). Bliss 2016 rescan, a full res version of windows 11 img50, as well as PixelSense and office template backgrounds might be missing from the archive I linked. No idea what's up with that.
