I do appreciate when they put actual effot in but with Sponsorblock i rarely see them. This meme still applies for when they get passed sponsorblock though lol

Sponsorblock

How have I never heard of this?! I just installed it, trialled it on a YouTube video, and it’s instantly one of my favorites.

Thank you!!

For anyone in a similar boat:

On that note… Also take a look at DeArrow

dearrow.ajay.app

Same dev as SponsorBlock, same concept, just for YT Titles and thumbnails.

Users can submit titles that better describe the contents and pick a neutral thumbnail.

i also have DeArrow and it’s such a subtle change that you don’t even realize until you’re browsing the Tube on another device. Hoooly shit. i could feel the pressure from all the clickbait.

Don’t forget to upvote good segments and downvote bad ones. Segments that are downvoted enough get hidden or removed. That’s a pretty big part of how they prevent malicious people (possibly with outside instances) from trying to sabotage the network

I like how garage is a class but car is an intrinsic element.

Ironfacebuster ,

Maybe garage is just a class styling for a generic “room” After all, it’s got 4 walls and a few doors

NiPfi ,

Idk why exactly but using IDs for styling has been discouraged for a while and now every application I’ve ever worked on had been styled using classes that are usually unique anyway

yum ,

Should I bother using just classes or can I keep making ids?

NiPfi ,

Tbh, I think for unique elements that’s a valid approach. It also enables easier element selection in automated e2e testing

dan ,
@dan@upvote.au avatar

In E2E tests you should ideally be finding elements using labels or ARIA roles. The point of an E2E test is to use the app in the same way a user would, and users don’t look for elements by class name or ID, and definitely not by data-testid.

The more your test deviates from how real users use the system, the more likely it is that the test will break even though the actual user experience is fine, or vice versa.

This is encouraged by Testing Library and related libraries like React Testing Library. Those are for unit and integration tests though, not E2E tests. I’m not as familiar with the popular E2E testing frameworks these days (we use an internally developed one at work).

NiPfi ,

I agree, but our tester is a bit lazy I suppose

penquin , to mildlyinfuriating in Windows just changed my desktop wallpaper and re-added the search bar without my permission after an update

Chris Titus made this tool. I use it to debloat windows, disable all the telemetry, then pause all feature updates for two years and let only security updates through. As an added bonus (and if you want win11), he added a tool to create a micro windows iso. I am running the micro and it has been fantastic. I even removed defender and other garbage they force on people.

I wonder how many people confuse him for the comedian.

I assumed it wasn’t the comedian, but bought that he might be angry enough at Windows to make it happen.

He’s pretty good. Kinda like a left leaning Dennis Leary

penquin ,

Who’s Dennis Leary? 😂 Sorry, immigrant here and don’t know many people.

AngryCommieKender ,

He’s an asshole

He’s a comedian from the '90s and early '00s

penquin ,

Oh, ok. Good thing I didn’t know him I guess.

AngryCommieKender ,

Nah, look him up. He is actually funny, but a bit right wing these days. He was closer to mainstream in the '90s

Oh, and watch the video. It is funny.

AngryCommieKender ,

Oh definitely look up Christopher Titus on YouTube he put all his standup specials on there for free.

BeautifulMind , (edited ) to aboringdystopia in "but- But- inflation go brrrr 🥺👉👈"
@BeautifulMind@lemmy.world avatar

It’s been maddening to watch people call price-gouging “inflation”, honestly.

That’s not fucking inflation when someone in the supply chain made things more expensive and pocketed the difference as a wider profit margin; it’s the symptom of non-enforcement of antitrust laws.

I mean, most foodstuffs markets (in the supply chain between farm and grocer or farm -> restaurant) are controlled by very few people or corporations; when the farmers get less for their products but the grocer must pay more for them, that’s not inflation. It’s price-gouging, the symptom of the kinds of market failures that follow regulatory failures to prevent corporate mergers that would reduce competition in those markets.

When you look at food, fuel, housing, the enshittification of basically everything, the acquisition of yesterday’s hot-fresh-streaming services and re-packaging them to be just as predatory as the cable was when you cut the cord and went to streaming- it’s all what we get when private equity owns a piece of everything and they’re running it all to squeeze more out of everyone they can, and they also ensure regulators don’t do a damned thing about it.

There was once a time when regulators had the will to block corporate mergers, and they had the will to tax windfall profits at 100%.

If inflation isn’t based on most prices increasing… What is it based on?

BeautifulMind ,
@BeautifulMind@lemmy.world avatar

If inflation isn’t based on most prices increasing… What is it based on?

It’s the devaluation of currency that happens when too much of it chases too few goods in the marketplace. It’s purely a monetary thing, you get that when the supply of money grows more quickly than the value of real goods in the economy does.

Ideally, we print money (and take it out of circulation) at a pace that keeps the money supply more or less balanced to the value of available goods and services in the economy. If we were to print too much money, or not take enough out of circulation (note: paying taxes does this; when you pay taxes the money doesn’t go into some account somewhere, it’s used to zero out the bonds issued to create it), the amount of money in circulation would become greater than the amount of real valuable goods in the economy. When that happens, the resulting bidding contest to secure those goods (after all, money doesn’t have intrinsic value, it’s only good for buying things that do) drives up the price of those goods in monetary terms.

RattlerSix ,

“Gastroenterologists who X-rayed Lotito’s stomach said he was capable of consuming 2 pounds per day, according to his Guinness World Records entry.”

I often read things and think about them and realize that it’s so absurd I can’t believe anyone tried to pass it off as true, and this is one of them.

Gastroenterologist: “Oh yeah, that stomach can consume metal, I know because…” Because what? You’ve been trained to identify stomachs that can digest metal using X-rays? What day of gastroenterologist school was that?

Go Google abdominal X-ray. You can’t even tell where the stomach is, it’s just a cloudy area.

"Oh yeah, that cloudy area there can definitely digest metal, I can tell just by looking at it. I’d say it can digest, say, a pound and a half easily. Probably two pounds. Probably not two and a half though, I can tell just by looking at it that two pounds would be too much. "

Iron toxicity from a patient that literally just took too many supplements.

You know how they say everybody has about a nail’s worth of iron in their body?

It turns out that you definitely don’t want a pound of it in your stomach.

Also turns out that a lot of other metals are the same kind of thing. Not gold though, it’s generally not chemically active, so eat all the gold you want.

RattlerSix ,

Or maybe, and this may sound a little crazy but maybe the guy didn’t eat an airplane

Longpork3 ,

Now look at an x-ray of an abdomen with a metallic object in it. Seems pretty plausible thata person could look at an x-ray containing a bunch of metal and approximate how much of it there is.
