E.g. “we’ll go back to being locked which you said we couldn’t do.

So do you want us to listen to rule A or rule B both of which are in conflict?”

This here is the Volt family.

Marty volt is small and so he can jump across a small stream. Put up a small net and it’s impossible for him

Victor, though. He’s got some strong legs. He can jump the net and the stream.

In fact, he’s so strong he can jump over a small river but not if you put a small wall across the way. Then, even with a running jump, he’ll be blocked.

And finally there’s Kal, ahem, Clark Volt. He’s super strong. So strong it could be an ocean and with a little jaunt before leaping he’d jump it.

The stronger the volt, the further they can go and the bigger the obstacle you need to make it impossible for them to make it.

So high enough voltage can literally leap through air (that’s the arcing you see in power plants shorting or lightning) or even wood itself. Even rubber, with a high enough voltage, will be conductive since the sheer force of the current will find a path for the charge.

That’s also why we have lighting rods, it’s easier to redirect the current to a safe spot made to handle it than to try and make high skyscrapers out of a material that can resist the insane charges of lightning and still be strong enough and light enough to build with.

Like a retweet. People that follow you will see what you boost on their feed.

You can subscribe to magazines/communities but and follow users.

Also, upvotes (on kbin) are favorites. And any upvote/downvote will show you did it and federate to other instances. For example go to “more | activity” on your comment and select “favourites” to see what I mean

What happens to posts/comments and any media/content that is hosted on a server that just goes away (for example if I created one virtually and then deleted it or if a sdcard on a pi is corrupted)

Not to mention that we can “visualize” the segments and networks by the numbers. Makes it easier to recognize, as an analogy,

This state, that city, this road, that house.

Versus ipv6. Of course there’s so much space in v6 that it isn’t an issue except it’s such a pain to work with for people who tend to think in ipv4 octets and bit masks

They could be. Or they could be sales, or brand ad coordination, or hr, or legal handling the various issues related to products, lawsuits, regulations, actual law enforcement inquiries, etc.

Like any corporation there’s a ton of backend staff doing stuff people don’t see because it makes the parts they do see operate.

Yet disorder and ambiguous goals/requirements by management tends to have a domino effect.

True but they can go anytime. In the meantime they’re making a fuss, keeping the issue alive in the news and making Reddit take action instead of making it easy for them.

E.g. “If you want me gone fire me because I’m not quitting so you can save face.”

Might want to put a disclaimer that the WiiU port doesn’t count

Just for starters (knowing that they can be changed with themes) is color contrast

For example up top whether I have subscribed, all, etc selected isn’t clearly obvious.

I mean I can “tell” if I look really closely but there isn’t enough contrast.

There’s some great SASS tooling for identifying if the colors you have meet the recommended WCAG guidance for contrast/visibility.

Alt text and descriptions for items visual elements too.

While it’s hard to enforce across the fediverse I do like how I’ve seen some people post memes and write descriptive text of what is in the panels.

Here’s one I commented on.

Did you use the power suite and use it multiple times?

Seems to be a bug and there’s some fork of it that somebody made to fix the issue

[-] Adama@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

And make it easier for Reddit to take the moral high ground by saying that those protesting the changes are somehow aligned with this group.

All I can say is this. Get off my side, you’re making me look bad whether you intended to or not.
