Yes, all Linux system files are readable text files. The only exceptions are bitmap graphics assets and the contents of /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /usr/local/bin etc., which is where any corrupted files go, hence the name. You can check the files, they are indeed unreadable garbage. Reminder to clean your PC’s bin directories to save disk space!

CCTV IS A CRIME! Open the circuit!

Finally one I recognize. Is the 2-portal run all glitchless, in-bounds only, or anything goes?

Probably find-and-replace gone wrong. They should have seen it coming, lots of movies feature their title in the dialogue

It’s where lots of people still are so it’s inevitable

It’s not an easy sexuality to figure out, and I imagine the almost complete lack of ace visibility prior to cca 2020 did not help

Joke as old as the first maps of Europe. Even before modern borders, people knew the Apennian Peninsula as “the boot” and the Scandinavian Penisnula as “dick and balls”.

They’re probably going to make a deal with Google to improve Google Lens. Yes, it will eventually help the blind but Reddit’s shareholders will be getting even richer from people’s donated time.

Depends on what the past participle is

They’re not winning over the blind again after they limited access to screen-reader-accessible apps.

I couldn’t say no to this guy… But I’m not a responsible adult so I don’t count.

Please learn how to draw basic sketches of railway switches. It’s not that hard.

Every device I’ve seen do this can only reach lower levels of volume than most of the ones that don’t (PCs, Walkmans, headphones with built-in radios…)

It’s like that “save electricity, unplug charger” popup that I only ever saw on phones with switching power supplies, whose zero-load power is several orders of magnitude less than the heavy transformer ones. Or the constantly-moving 🔇 icon on LCD TVs, although it takes many consecutive days of a static picture to burn them in as opposed to CRTs, plasma and OLED ones. Even then, shifting it by 1 pixel per minute would be enough and way less annoying.

You’re practically right but…

Since 3.5mm jacks with insertion leaf switches are larger, the audio chips instead check for approx. 32 Ω of impedance on the audio channels, or connection between the first two pins (MIC and GND), which doubles as button press detection (some phones, including every Samsung one, check for several resistance levels, allowing for separate ⏮⏭ buttons rather than just the multipurpose ⏯). This makes sure that (high-impedance) line-in devices whose plugs bridge the first 2 pins get detected (as a side effect, your headset with mic and 1 button will only show up with the micless icon if you hold the button while plugging it in).

Therefore, phones do detect line-level devices vs headphones or aux-in ones (or at least have hardware to do so) but other than perhaps some EQ and level adjuatment in the DAC, there is no effect.

Didn’t notice it, it was a while ago

This is not !outofcontextcomics@lemmy.world but sure, it would fit if unedited

1926: Snakes on a Train

2006: Snakes on a Plane

2086:

The other suit might still have a few deadly snakes without being full of them, and we don’t know how many harmless snakes (or anything else) are there.

Firefox actually shows ∞ tabs open in the icon for 100+
