Debian used to be so good. What happened!? (lemmy.world)

Firefox on Debian stable is so old that websites yell at you to upgrade to a newer browser. And last time I tried installing Debian testing (or was it debian unstable?), the installer shat itself trying to make the bootloader.

Annoyingly similar buttons with very different functions (lemmy.world)

One of the buttons laps the stopwatch, the other resets the entire session clearing all lap markers and stopping the counter. Better not forget which is which, especially given that you're probably timing something in the physical world not paying much attention to your phone...

The placement of the numbers and their relative size are ugly too. I understand why the sizes are different, but it looks ugly nonetheless.

The "fix" would be to not allow themes to execute code in the first place.

My guy, any amount of school shooting is more common than they should be.

Could you please clarify why the baseline needs to be at 0? I'm genuinely curious.

How do you know a Windows user?

Don't worry, they'll bitch and moan about all the different ways Windows sucks.
