My understanding of the joke is less about tables, more about pontification; I.e. “it is so because we say it is”.

On mine it’s only available from the Izzy repo, not the main fdroid one.

Edit: Here’s the source code. Try with either Izzy or Obtainium to install.

“It’s a deck of playing cards. How much more fun can it be, compared to the 50+ other solitaire games? And why would I want to play poker by myself?”

So I got a bit of money leftover after bills, and decided to get it anyway cause I haven’t played anything fun this year. Went in blind without reading or watching any reviews.

Turns out it’s NOT just your standard deck of playing cards. You can do all sorts of crazy things to your deck. Like playing illegal hands such as five-of-a-kind, or a flush house. It’s a lot of fun.

I really don’t know the Scottish English

If you think American v. British are at 80-90%, Scottish is around 30% and that’s being generous 🙂

My parents still double click everything on their mobile…

Coming off of this discussion, what you have there might be an extreme version of diazeugma, one with an implicit subject.

Either way, I learnt something new today - zeugma. So thank you :)

Edit: I just realised… please, no juvenile jokes about “sugma” in this thread, thank you.

Because if you need your wipers, you need your lights too.

If you have trouble seeing the road, people will have trouble seeing you. Do they not teach that in drivers ed these days?

And somehow it’s always the grey cars…

That is good life advice.

I hammered into my elderly parents that if they ever get a call/text from their “bank”, “tax department”, “insurance”, or literally anything - ask for a case number and hang up. Then call the number listed on the official website.

Now they’re telling everyone they know about it. Good on them.

That’s… two posts

Three, actually. While I agree with you, it is still arguably the number one company that annoys people on that list ʘ‿ʘ

You may get a better answer if you follow the suggestion in the comment at the bottom of your source:

The syntax is specific to Perchance, a website that 99% of the general public have never heard of.

I don’t know where you are, but painter’s tape (or masking tape) comes in all sorts of colours. Including white.

The way I normally do it is the following. Strip the sleeve further back than you need (say, an inch). Untwist the 8 cores and separate them.

Arrange them in the right order (the extra length makes this easy) Flatten, pack them together, and pinch with your thumb and forefinger near the base.

Without letting go of the pinch, use your free hand to cut them to the correct length. Now that you have them flat between your fingers in the right order, it should be pretty straightforward to slide them into the connector.

Commonwealth maybe?

Edit: wiki references seem to indicate it’s predominantly ANZ

she’ll be right… @lemmy.nz

Checks out.

Gun culture, car culture, sports culture, political culture… /s, kinda

So you’re saying it’s meditation in sheep’s clothing?

This article is prime “SelfAwareWolves” material…

Countering this in international media by offering more balanced views for a global audience is near impossible as censorship is rife. There almost seems to be a global compact to control the narrative, a propaganda war powered by today’s digital technology.

Other than desktop pwa, what features do the other browsers have that aren’t available as a Firefox plugin?

It’s literally the only result if you search for “organic”

The og Opera was so good and innovative. Would’ve paid for it (when it was still ad-supported), were I not a poor student at the time.

When they became yet another chromium skin with no soul, I moved fully to FF. Now Vivaldi is my second browser alongside FF.
