Find ich schade, dass wir uns da nicht einig werden. Wir haben eine Islandstute die auch echt süß ist. Nicht unbedingt nützlich, aber ich hab sie doch sehr lieb.

Also bis zum letzten Satz war ich ja voll bei dir, aber nimm das über Pferde zurück! Das muss kein entweder oder sein; beide können süß sein.

Yes, the lightsaber is a part of you after all

Einige von denen sind schon

I do

Shai-Hulud actually does some good though. Bless the Maker and His water. Bless the coming and going of Him. May His passage cleanse the world. May He keep the world for His people.

For PC, extra functions should be in the context menu in my opinion. For mobile, that’s a little tougher, but maybe tapping on the selected text should bring up the options? Selecting on mobile is a tough thing anyway, and any solution is probably going to be a problem for someone else.

Actually, that’s probably true for any UI design choices. There are some that are generally a good idea (like defining a reasonable navigation order for your elements or making design respond to viewport sizes to ensure that everything actually fits), but interaction options can get really muddy.

Adding on to the other comment, Nobara is maintained by Glorious Egroll, the same guy that also develops the popular Proton-GE compatibility tool which adds some extra fixes on top of Valve’s Proton.

(Proton is the compatibility tool Steam uses to make Windows games run on Linux, in case you’re unfamiliar)

Danke! – tippt Filzhut

Was heißen die Flaggen da? Ich nehme an y ist “yes” (automatisch bestätigen) wie bei anderen Paketverwaltern auch, u könnte ich noch raten ist update, aber S hab ich keine Idee.

Da hab ich absolut Verständnis für. Ich bastel gerne an Skripten rum, is auch billiger und platzsparender als eine Modelleisenbahn.

Ich weiß noch nicht ob ich froh oder geknickt bin, durch einen Bot ersetzt zu werden. Klar, spart Aufwand und funktioniert schneller als ich, aber irgendwie hatte es auch was nettes, immer wieder mal deine Posts durchzuschauen.

Naja, das ist halt der Preis des Fortschritts… verdient hast du sie sowieso.

Arse nemesis

Prepend “in” to the name of the two Sith first invented.

Glaub die Kirche findet das nicht so lustig, aber ich bin voll dafür. Und die Küken sind auch süß, ja.

Yeah, well, it’s awful and annoying and shitty and I wish it’d stop doing that. I wish it’d stop doing a lot of things, to be honest, but that’s beside the point.

I don’t use it, but my GF does. She’ll have the volume up for some video that does interest her, then be scrolling through and treat me to the audible part of that trend without even seeing the funny / cute / insightful / boring picture to accompany and potentially compensate the acoustic pollution. She’s thoroughly numbed to it, but I’m not and I hate it.

(I’ve dropped the idea of getting her to quit the app, that battle just isn’t worth fighting.)

Half the time, people seem to upload otherwise perfectly complete still pictures as reel with some dumb music over it because if you’re not constantly assaulted by the same popular song snippets over and over on every post, are you even paying attention?

Particularly pernicious are ones with some sad or bittersweet content that will have some variant of “generic slow piano with a female, breathy voice singing some words that sound sad but you couldn’t actually tell what it’s about without listening to more than the five seconds used in this looping video”.

Did George Lucas know that?

I don’t know. There is a certain tendency in western media to overrepresent the significance of swords in pre-gunpowder combat (at least when they’re not treating bows like they’re guns and catapults like artillery).

On the other hand, with well-made swords often serving as a status symbol (due to being more expensive in terms of required material, labour and skill of the craftsman) it makes sense for the Jedi to wield them as a symbol of affiliation and the reputation that accompanies that affiliation. Everyone can buy a Blaster, but a Lightsaber?

Or maybe he just wanted to emphasize the mysticism around katanas.

It doesn’t have to be either/or, I think both are plausible.

There’s plenty of one handed lightsaber usage.

The only one that I’m aware of that uses them exclusively one-handed is Dooku, and he’s a bit of a special case. Otherwise, the cases I’m aware of switch between one- and two-handed strikes, which means they’d want their offhand free.

Ashoka famously dual wields.

Hence my point: Space Wizards can do that, but that still means there’s no offhand free for a blaster.

I think it more like how some samurai considered firearms dishonorable.

Samurai did use bows and other weapons beside their sword, so it’s not that they strictly adhere to one weapon like the Jedi seem to, but yes, Obi-Wan does describe it as “uncivilised”, so that is an element as well.

Since you brought up the analogy, I’ll point out that the Samurai diminished in power and importance as firearms spread, coming to a head with the Satsuma Rebellion that ended with their whole class being disbanded. To a degree, the Jedi being shot down by the newly formed professional army at the behest of the Emperor very much mirrors… well, the Japanese Imperial Army shooting down the Samurai that opposed the reforms (except the Jedi weren’t even given the chance to oppose and rebel, which probably would have gone quite differently).

Not that I know of, but damn if I don’t want that to be a thing now.
