My understanding was that overstock.com bought them for their brand only, and then changed their own name to Bed Bath & Beyond. So the old BB&B is now extinct, and overstock.com is now masquerading as BB&B.

If you go to overstock.com or o.co, both actually redirect to Bed Bath & Beyond now (which is presumably just a re-skinned version of the old overstock.com?)

That’s the whole joke. Helicopter blade, hydra head, cut off, regrow

Is anyone even able to reproduce the issue? It cannot be improved if you can’t reproduce it in the first place.

Much nicer than C, much simpler than C++, much less cruft than both.

Their username is also hilarious

I personally would like to become a conscious cloud of gas.

Meh

This post needs to be somehow tagged as misleading. Too many people are going to accept the headline at face value.

Is it used for any serious apps? I saw they released the “cosmos” which is very impressive but mostly seemed like basic utils that were already available in Linux/Mac?

What’s weird is that 17 feels like a small enough number where it seems like we should know intuitively what its multiples are. And it feels like by this point in our lives we should at least know all numbers up to 100 or so that are composite vs prime. But yeah it’s actually not that weird when you consider that the multiplication table usually stops at 12. And also that we really don’t get that much exercise in multiplication in daily life.

This one has always bothered me a bit because …999999 is the same as infinity, so when you’re “proving” this, you’re doing math using infinity as a real number which we all know it’s not.

I see 306 issues and 0 pull requests. That’s got to be a bit discouraging as an open source project maintainer - plenty of people filing bug reports but no one that cares enough to help fix the bugs.

Are you a programmer? If so, the code is open source, so you could try fixing it on your own; it doesn’t seem that hard to fix. You could try to find where they are handling scroll input and see if there is anything that tells you what direction it is. Then if it’s horizontal just ignore it.

You are exactly right. This whole thread is full of people complaining about the price, but it’s perfectly justifiable for this one reason. If you have a significant other then it’s actually cheaper to rent than it is to go to the theater. And big screen TVs are commonplace, so the experience is about the same (arguably better since you can pause if you have to go pee, can rewind if you missed something, can be as obnoxious as you want, don’t have to commute there, and don’t have to deal with sticky floors and overpriced popcorn).

I’m not saying the price is reasonable (it’s too high in my opinion) but people need to stop pretending like it makes no sense from a business perspective. It’s a no-brainer to the average non-pirating consumer: they are getting something better, for cheaper.

The dushbags trashing on Flatpaks and Appimages and Snaps are totally in the right 😈

To be fair, the Fahrenheit measurement should be pretty intuitive here. Fahrenheit is easy because 0 degrees is “really fucking cold” and 100 degrees is “really fucking hot.” So anything triple-digits should be easily recognizable as “yeah that’s way too fucking hot for a phone.”

This is also why I prefer Fahrenheit to Celsius in general (even though I am an engineer and am not a die-hard patriot or anything like that). It is a more practical scale for everyday usage.

Hate to break it to you (and your superiority complex) but Fahrenheit is also a standard.

and don’t call me Shirley.

You’re probably joking but just to save people some time, it does not actually recommend HTMX. (I remembered seeing this website a while back but didn’t recall anything about HTMX so had to check.)
