pretty much every war movie

the classics have got Saving Private Ryan, Nolan’s got Dunkirk, Best Cinematography’s got 1917, Ghibli’s got Grave of the Fireflies (released same day as Totoro even)…

for anti-war that’s not depressing, there’s also AFAIK the over-the-top Helldivers

for things that feel “clean” instead of bloody there’s the elegant video game Nier: Automata

Report also appears to be a one-off, unfortunately

oh these are the digits i assure

what does that mean

great thing that PM2.5’s been vanquished. don’t the visibility issues mostly come from inner-mongolian winds of the north, though?

to be precise: not exactly shut down, but made it really expensive

literally 1984

I consider multitasking a discrete part of the OS, not Liquid Glass. i do have some thoughts on it though

for what it’s worth there are gestures they don’t tell you that make the multitasking so much easier: toggle maximization by tapping the top of the window, and then as they mention you can snap it to either side by smashing the window in a direction

also they added back drag and drop to Split View in iPadOS 26.2. after three months they finally have a stable release of this multitasking thing

I have found multitasking useful especially with stage manager, but I completely understand those who don’t like it and just want an option to restore the old multitasking. I also miss Quick Notes (workaround through a shortcut button just isn’t the same)

i’ve never seen a meta thread in that commag. i suspect that Jordanl enforces the “post news articles only” rule quite well. here’s where it’s been discussed:

Jordanl simply repeats the same argument about X and disengages when people ask him to respond to the well-known refutation

i find it great on the iphone too, especially with the new swipe interaction to go between tabs (not the safari kind; like in the app store swiping from today to apps). the cornering of buttons works wonders. plus i personally dig the aesthetic though i understand a ton of people don’t

ah i have had that happen before lol. it does copy spaces but it doesn’t overwrite your main clipboard so i don’t have qualms about it. every app you’d expect to support middle-mouse drag except notepad/gedit/kwrite/etc supports it instead of pasting unless you use chromium without the relevant extension or remain static over a textbox.

it did make things feel better and easier-to-interact though … on the touchscreen ipad. it looks like hell on macbook

“hard to justify”, on par with “mostly harmless” turn-of-phrase (9)—ＷＯＮＤＥＲＦＵＬ

(i mean like the expression itself lol i love it i’m stealing it; my goodness what have they done with the menus)

interesting; how does one copy from an empty field by accidnet? /geniunely curious and oblivious

but it’s quite intuitive to realize what it does

first thing i was thinking of too as a chemistry fan

Okay, so the software’s technical debt just stays there, forever piling up bugs

It’s doing the same thing it did 10 years ago

Have you been following Wikipedia’s development of its own software, and the massively increased amounts of transparency and dialogue with editors (the people who actually create Wikipedia’s content) under the outgoing CEO?

(I agree, but for what it’s worth, the 3.4M number which is actually 3.5M does include all WMF web hosting, not just Wikipedia.)

i think most corporate media meet the standard of not hosting nazis
