Running… For now.

I think what you’re seeing is that the OP of the post is rendered differently from everyone else. But what OP is referring to is how that one specific user that they replied to has his username in purple, instead of the white everyone else has.

It appears that we have been graced with the presence of the lead developer of Voyager himself! I wonder how many times he gets this question and if he regrets giving his user a special color :P

Okay, don’t get me wrong I’m impressed and I also enjoy macgyvering things like that… But if it’s for a work thing, surely it can’t be that hard to go out and buy a new cable from any old shop nearby? I would think the cable is common enough to still be in stock in a lot of places, even if it’s ancient.

So, uhh, are you good and comfortable at using the mouse with your right hand? If so you have no reason to use your left. I have a left-handed friend who has always exclusivity used his right for the mouse. Ain’t no law saying your mouse hand must be your writing hand. Not to mention the benefits: it’s the default setting on any system, and there are lots of great quality asymmetric mouses that only fit the right hand.

I’m not trying to change you, by all means if you like the trackpad more power to you. Just curious why you’d try to mouse with your left if you’ve already learned to use it with your right.

I think it’s an excellent compromise for being a portable PC. If I’m going to university, to a study space or a lecture, a laptop is freaking fantastic.

Also all laptops universally have one killer feature that nearly no desktop PC has: a built-in UPS. If power goes out, the laptop just keeps chugging along on battery power, giving you an extra few hours of work.

It’s not my workstation of choice by any means, but I wouldn’t call it miserable. It’s fine.

Man, that meme bred so much creativity. Every time you heard it it was different. I don’t know anything about Chuck Norris but that meme was always one of my favorites.

Is there any current meme with lots of variation like that?

But even so, “it just works” = “this is boring!”

Strange weather this time of year. Frequent missile showers. Good thing there’s bomb shelters.

Don’t cats also keep rodent populations in check? It’s not all bad. Cities are completely transformed for humans anyway, so it’s hard to say what fauna “should” survive on the streets.

But outside of cities, you’re damn right. There was that one individual cat that is responsible for the extinction of multiple species!

I think(?) the the screencaps are from the Matrix franchise, but the text feels very Tron.

… Seriously though what scene is this, I can’t place it

That’s literally Bazzite in this chart

I never learned cursive (can’t even read it most of the time) but I don’t think my answer would be helpful to you. But it might be interesting.

My signature isn’t my full name, it’s just an arrangement of 3 alphanumeric symbols that has meaning to me but to anyone else probably looks like a meaningless scribble. If someone ever tries to forge my signature, they’ll almost definitely do it wrong.

But the reason my answer isn’t useful is that English isn’t my native tongue, and neither is the Latin alphabet. My native tongue is Hebrew. Hebrew cursive is very different from Latin cursive, in that the letters don’t flow into each other. It’s still “block letters”, just a different variant of them. I’ve never looked at many signatures but I think a lot of people just write their name quickly, and that inevitably involves lifting the pen from the paper between letters multiple times.

In a lot of less important contexts that require signature (e.g. receiving a package), many people just make a really quick meaningless scribble, which might look like α or φ or whatever to just get on with it. Workers asking for these signatures often humorously say “give me a scribble here” in those scenarios.

TIL, thank you. Still not gonna say it like that.

Hebrew and English. I have tried once or twice to learn a third language but I just don’t have the discipline for it.

Hebrew is my native tongue, and English I speak pretty much at a native level simply by lots and lots of being online and watching TV from a young age, and often chatting with my sister in English for no real reason. I’ve even got a pretty convincing American accent. In hindsight I would have preferred most British accents, but I can’t seem to change it now (refer to the aforementioned discipline issue).

I still regularly talk to two of my friends in English, still for no apparent reason. We just switch between Hebrew and English arbitrarily.

It have a T-shirt that says “MOOD” in just that style! Of course, since I’m the one wearing it I only ever see it in the mirror.

Fish are fishy.

I’ve long since decided that these are probably fake, but that doesn’t make them any less entertaining. Keep them coming!
