lol, good question

Love 'em or hate 'em, Apple

Sir, this is a Lemmy

Are homonyms/homophones more common in English? As a non-native speaker, I remember the vowel shift causing more trouble at first. Also, rules for shortening/combining words can be tricky. They’re/their is the obvious example. But then there’s won’t, where the apostrophe doesn’t simply substitute a letter in two words that work independently. And it’s/its is very confusing, as possessive is normally also marked with 's. Is/are is a whole new thing if your native language doesn’t distinguish.

The picture looks like AI. Fucking scary as fuck.

Oh look, incisor straight into molar and weird lip lump. How about that.

Some mechanics are just subjectively annoying, especially in PvE. Enemies healing themselves is one. Enemies stunning the player is another. In MY amazing dev company we would have none of that.

where is it used?

I would be more interested in a budget-camera option if it meant price reduction and no bump. If that were also the one not solely marketed in the hands of 22-year-old fashionistas, all the better.

Razer is great at covering the exact feature-set I want in a product. Fell for it with the Viper Ultimate and got a creaky, grainy button feel and a rubber coating that quickly wore down and felt slimy. Then I bit the bullet with the Barracuda headset, which went straight back. The thing was bulky, hollow, creaky, flimsy, had coil whine, lost audio after idling… I keep telling myself to not fall for it, and then I’m in the market for something, and some Razer product just seems to tick the boxes. NEVER AGAIN!(?)

Taxonomists will be the first to tell you the field itself isn’t an exact science. I think some people find that to be more exiting.

Why is “ios” the only one not in all-caps?

iOS begins with a lower-case ‘i’, making this error more frequent.

Why does the apple hq list their mobile system while the other two list their desktop/workstation/server systems?

Apple’s most iconic product is the iPhone, but the meme compares software. So the ‘Apple’-item then becomes iOS.

Why does each get a different proportion of the screen/why aren’t they equally sized/why are they not stacked vertically?

The rule of three applies to jokes and typically dictates that the punchline is third and given extra emphasis. The layout reflects that tradition.

Why is this man not using dark mode, and how is the obvious and glaring light bleed at the bottom-left of his monitor just get accepted?

From what I’ve seen, Linus Thorvalds uses default work environments and doesn’t care much about hardware beyond functionality.

Anyone who’s given it a good run and want to share?

I’ve been thinking our ‘oiliness’ might be one of our most striking characteristics. If I wipe a finger over any smooth surface, I leave residue. Our exteriors are incredibly greasy compared to most technology.

So basically, it’s like, consciousness just declares … any time … now, so that’s why it’s like, always now you know?

If you ever talk to someone confused by this, maybe ask them to lightly push the front magnet in the direction it’s trying to go.

The inner monologue is thinking by ‘hearing’ your own voice ‘speaking’ in your mind. It’s the mental equivalent of literally talking to yourself.

Do people have a non metaphorical inner monologue where they physically hear thoughts?

Yes, in the sense that they hear themselves ‘voicing’ out their own thoughts. If you have the ability to form images in your mind, it’s like that, but with sound.

I don’t know if there is any, but I just came across this talk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfWjhEWyblo&t=15868s

This language is a bit concerning
