@cozykaffe@snouts.online They're generally counted as such, yes..

@Terrana@tootplanet.space You're not alone, we can't read them either.

Random gryphtaur, just because. She isn't anyone in particular, but it's a fun body shape to think my way around. Eight limbs in four matched pairs, no pair the same as any other. And they can fly, if awkwardly.

@pearshapes@snouts.online There's a place for it; it's a good mindless break from doing things that need actual effort in the game. Now, if people are automating the whole thing, that's a different matter.

re: sci fi poasting 

@cozykaffe@snouts.online I'm sure I've heard of this being the plot of a mid-20th-century sci-fi novel.

@monorail We're familiar with the clock-to-direction analogy, but we've never heard it with that specific phrasing before.

@cozykaffe@snouts.online What game is that? It looks like a breakout/arkanoid clone.

@Nine Typhoon is another word for hurricane. Be safe.

@cozykaffe@snouts.online We had a canadian professor a few semesters ago whose hometown is home to the world's largest, and only, UFO landing pad.

@dodec It's hard to unpack that kind of stuff. You have our support.

@cozykaffe@snouts.online There are still some problems with it, really, mainly in the selection of different keys available. We would greatly benefit from having a μ key, for example.

@cozykaffe@snouts.online Dragonfruit is cactus! So is prickly pear, and nopales.

@cozykaffe@snouts.online This was actually the design goal of the qwerty layout; though it was initially intended more to prevent typewriters from becoming jammed than anything else. I think people say the dvorak layout is actually better for typing speed, but I doubt it's worth the trouble to switch.

@cozykaffe@snouts.online Have you ever tried pesto-based pastas?

@cozykaffe@snouts.online It's very sophisticated guesswork; I think there's a computerphile video about how password cracking works, if you want to look that up.
