So the characters are still words, right? As in not phonetics? Would it be like someone named Tristan getting the Spanish word Triste because it sounds like Tristan?

Alexa, what's a tampon?

Did you watch the clip? It's clearly tongue in cheek. Way to self report though, jeez.

It was a weird sounding scream though. It reminds me of Jeb's "please clap" moment.

Only Visual Studio Products Can Access the Extension Marketplace

While all of the projects listed above support VS Code extensions, only Microsoft products can use and connect to Microsoft’s Extension Marketplace. The terms of use for the Marketplace prevent any non-Visual Studio products from accessing it.

Gitpod employs a workaround where users upload .vsix files to install extensions. This causes unnecessary overhead as users have to download the files from GitHub, then upload them to Gitpod. Downloading extensions from the Microsoft Marketplace for any use other than in Microsoft products is prohibited as well.

Most extensions are developed by communities and published under permissive open source licenses. The requirement to distribute and access these community-owned extensions in a system with such restrictive terms of service does not seem right.

Our goal is to resolve this issue by hosting an open source extension registry at the Eclipse Foundation, a vendor-neutral organization. We’re doing this through the Eclipse Open VSX Registry project.

No, it's not a fork.

  • Code - OSS is what's actually open source. It's like Chromium.
  • VS Code is not open source and built on Code - OSS. This is like Google Chrome.
  • VS Codium is open source and built on Code - OSS. It's like Degoogled Chromium.

Codium also used an open extension marketplace. Microsoft's cannot be used except by Microsoft products.

VS Code is the epitome of fauxpen source.

It was way more emotional than I expected. I loved it.

Sun Clock (sunclock.net)
 

(I did not make this project.)

I love this website. It helps me visualize time with regards to the sun very well. If I could get my FitBit to display this as a clock face I definitely would. It's such a beautifully simple site.

I'm sharing it in honor of the solstice today. It's (roughly) solar noon on the east coast. I think I found this site on Reddit prior to the Lemmy Exodus, so I'd like to share it here for everyone to enjoy. Happy solstice. Happy summer (or winter for our friends in the southern hemisphere).

Also, based on the community info panel I believe this is on topic here, but if there is a better community for "cool site I found" let me know. ❤️☀️

 

I feel like a case can really make or break a build. Or at least your enjoyment of it. My specs are below, but I sort of picked a case at random. I'm looking for suggestions.

My current build has served me since 2010 and it's time to upgrade the CPU, Motherboard, and case. Everything that can be replaced easily has been and it's really showing it's age. I mention this because it's likely the case I pick will be used for the next ten years of my life!

Stuff I care about

  • Ease of opening for cleaning/assembling. Part of why I don't clean my current on as much as I should is how annoying it is to open.
  • Ease of moving. I'm more interested in handles than weight, but I still don't want something stupidly heavy.
  • Size. I'd prefer something a little too big rather than something a little too small. I don't necessarily want a full tower though. As long as I can get in easily and there is some extra room for the next GPU I'll inevitably buy in the next 10 years I'm good.

Stuff I don't care about

  • Water cooling. I have zero interest in getting custom water cooling. Too much effort for me.
  • Looks. I don't really want some crazy RBG thing, but I also don't specifically need some super minimalist thing either.
  • Price. So, obviously I don't want to waste money, but if I need to splurge a little I'm willing to. Within reason.

I don't get a very detailed error message but it fails and tells me to try reinserting it. I've tried a few times. It fails at different percentages sometimes. Any thoughts or ways to get a more detailed error message? I have Mac and Linux too.

 

Not really Cassette Futurism (or Vaporwave) but I think folks here might like it still.

cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/8081021

Not really Vaporwave, but not too sure where it fits. These styles inspired a lot of Vaporwave things so I thought you might enjoy.

 

I used to be confused why "mi nombre es" and "me llamo" seemed to both mean "my name is". I read that "me llamo" really means "I am called" but I guess culturally they use "me llamo" in the same way we use "my name is" even though "mi nombre es" is a more literal translation.

I'm asking because there are a lot of phrases I'm learning that I know how to use but am still confused. If I knew the actual literal translation I would feel more comfortable. Things like "my brother likes basketball" being "A mi hermano le gusta el baloncesto" are confusing. The use of el doesn't confuse me, that's just how it is and I can see past it, we just don't say "I like the basketball" in English. But what is the point of "a" at the start? To? To what? To my brother? I sort of understand le. I'm not sure when to use it, I'm developing an intuitive understanding of when to use me/te/le/nos as opposed to yo/tú/él/ella/nosotros but it's still tricky.

So I'm wondering where I can find actually literal translations of these phrases. So many sites seem to use the phrase to mean "translation" (or maybe I'm misunderstanding the term literal translation but I'd think it is as one to one as possible).

 

This thread is frustrating. Everyone seems more interested in nitpicking the specifics of what OP is saying and are ignoring that a forum sends you your password (not an automatically generated one) in an email on registration.

 

I have an unfinished basement. It would be a great place for a workshop but some hobbies don't do well in a dusty environment. Would setting up an air purifier help? Even then I'm concerned it wouldn't get the entire volume of air.

One idea is to just cover the area in a tarp (or something more permanent) while not in use.

I hate to tidy up and will very likely forget even if I don't get lazy and I don't want to have stuff get dusty because it's laying out for a while.

I assume the dust is coming from the rafters when we walk around upstairs but I'm not certain.

The hobbies are pretty varied. Electronics (like Arduinos), sewing, painting, etc. Nothing crazy like woodworking or metalworking which create their own dust though. The dust is just the normal dust you see in basements lol.

 

MSOutlookit is a "skin" for Reddit that makes it look like Outlook. In case the joke isn't clear it makes it easier to hide Reddit browsing at work from folks looking over your shoulder. http://pcottle.github.io/MSOutlookit/

It's just super disheartening to see Reddit themselves show this off after killing third party apps.
