I did wonder if that might prove to be the answer, glad it wasn’t! 😁

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I would like to play a calm game
1·18 days agoMe too. I enjoyed it but reached a point where I just couldn’t figure out how to proceed. Must go have and have another go sometime.
I was saying the same thing just the other day, although in my case it was for something that was ”2 days ago" - totally unhelpful if you need to know the time it was posted! Just put an absolute date and time (and a timezone stamp if necessary).

9·24 days agoFunnily enough, I would refer to a department as “it” rather than “they” 😁

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If it's called open source, then what is the significance of licence ?
3·26 days agoAw man, I remember my kid having the Biff Chip and Kipper books, but we never got to the end of them as far as I know. That magic key bit was a real twist in what had thusfar been a pretty reality-grounded series. I need to go look up how that story progressed.

2·1 month agoAh ok, didn’t know that. And yeah, the numbers just don’t make sense at all! 😁

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•"Stop hiring humans" ad over may day rallyEnglish
5·1 month agoCan’t speak for this specific instance of course, but in the UK you occasionally get people flying messages over football ⚽ grounds or whatever, and I have read more than once that the company doing the flying don’t actually know what message they are pulling - they just get the packaged up message and fly it where the customer asks them to.
Don’t know if that’s true, though and it’s arguable whether that absolves them completely of responsibility for the message being shown.
EDIT - that being said, the first example I found contradicts me - here, the message was known by everyone, including the pilot!
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/26783751
EDIT 2 - a particularly nasty example here, where someone mentions banners not being checked. They definitely should have been.
“Due to the nature of the activity, banners are not checked before take-off and the content is at the operator’s discretion.”

Anyone having any issues with this pic?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What Lemmy Client are you Android users using in 2026?
2·1 month agoThat ad thing is weird, I’ve not seen anything like that at all. In fact I don’t even see video ads. Where is this, in your feed? Or when you open a thread?
I wonder if it’s to do with how the feed is set up? I use Small Cards view, don’t know if that’s maybe preventing me seeing the ads in the first place? I do sometimes see small static ads at the top of a thread, but that’s all.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What Lemmy Client are you Android users using in 2026?
5·1 month agoI still use Sync every day, and I can’t think of any issues I’ve had with it. What sort of bugs do you mean?

3·1 month agoI’m still using Sync (for Lemmy) but I’ll need to check Voyager out, since it seems Sync is now abandoned.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your favorite alternate rules for a sport or game?
1·2 months agoAlways enjoy those videos from Japan of 100 (or more) school kids playing football ⚽ against a handful of professionals.
Eg: https://youtu.be/MYFcTWKcuQM
Another one, this time from Germany: https://youtu.be/iEOKI2jeETM
That middle row is perfect - you could easily just have that, and the point he’s making would be crystal clear.
Trump’s actions don’t even make sense, let alone meet any standard of fairness or intelligence.

0·1 year agoUgh. I’m going to have to seriously look at Linux, aren’t I?
Absolutely no idea where to start with that, nor whether any of the software I need for work (or indeed anything else) is compatible, not how I’m going to find the time to learn all this.
Bleugh 😔
EDIT - Just want to say thanks to everyone for all the helpful tips and advice below. Will make it my mission this summer to at least understand Linux better and work out if it’s for me. Cheers, you lovely people 👍

Is it really rare, or just very hard to spot?
