Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Google now requires JavaScriptEnglish
3·1 年前A large majority of modern web applications are built with Javascript… Both frontend and backend. You do still have a large majority of websites using plain HTML or PHP, with some features requiring JS to function (modals, realtime stats, data input, etc).
You also have alternative languages like Java or C# (and more), but also may use bits of JS on the frontend to drive functionality.
You can bet that the majority of websites you visit nowadays will use some form of JS, unless it’s a static webpage to display basic information.
My cat’s name is Shadow. I do a lot of techy things, so “EXE” felt like a cool thing to add. “ShadowEXE” doesn’t flow as much as “ShadowCatEXE”. I also have alt names with DLL instead of EXE, but it’s not as cool.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the longest line you've ever waited in?
3·2 年前Service Canada. It wasn’t a physically super long line, but the shit people were there for took hours.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My daughter lost her social studies essay because LibreOffice doesn't have autosave on automatically.English
2·2 年前There’s a couple things… First, it’s a habit to be constantly pressing CTRL+S. I’ve been doing it for many years, I’ll continue to do it probably until I stop using a keyboard. It’s such an easy keystroke, since my hands are almost always hovering over the keyboard. Second, in some software you can create new documents without first creating a file on disk. This means that when I go to hit CTRL+S, it prompts me to save the file. That’s not to say that some software can’t save a recovery version of the document in the event the software crashes, but I’m not going to bet money on it working 100% of the time. I’d rather be proactive and personally make sure my work is saved. Gives me peace of mind.

171·2 年前Yeah, I don’t trust the auto save to save my work properly. I work as a Software Engineer, and any small change I make, even if I’m not done with the change and I’m just thinking, my hands immediately default to CTRL+S.
Always always make sure your work is being saved if it means something to you. Especially since windows will force update and reboot your computer. Battery’s can die, power can go out and your computer shuts down. Applications can and will crash.
Skateboarding shoes. I was heavy into skateboarding as a kid, and I’d constantly be buying cheap Walmart shoes, and they’d tear up so quickly, I’d go through a handful of pairs each summer. When I purchased my first pair of actual skate shoes (they were either Globe or Etnies), they lasted longer than an entire summer.
My dad has said on multiple occasions that the best steak he ever made was with just salt and pepper. However, every time he makes steak, he proceeds to put some kind of marinade on it, and it always turns out like leather.
Family history of cancer. My grandmas from both sides had it. Other family members died from it. So, probably from some form of cancer or sickness.
If not, probably due to a motor vehicle accident (motorcycle, ATV, Snowmobile, car) or some other form of stupidity.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Sideloading won't be enabled where I liveEnglish
3·2 年前Not every iOS device uses a SIM card, and not every SIM enabled device uses one. It’s a potential way to verify location, but not a reliable one.

8·2 年前It’s possible, but I wouldn’t put it past Apple to ignore the VPN when checking your location. I’d suspect they’d check using more than 1 approach (Internet, GPS, country on your Apple account, etc) to verify your location.

Would a pregnant cow be a server?
A bit off the rails, since it’s not a particular brand. But anything leather (wallets, belts, pouches, etc). I’ve had my leather wallet for nearly 7 years, maybe more. I haven’t really taken care of it (though I should). It’s been through a lot, and it has held up so well. Leather also ages very well. Whether it’s scuffed or dented, it’ll still look good with added character. As long as you don’t lose it or cut it (and craftsmanship is good), you’ll probably have it for a very long time.
Well, there’s something I haven’t thought of before haha. That’s too simple. I will have to try that next time I have a chance!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s your favorite fantasy universe and why?
3·2 年前The wizarding world. I thoroughly enjoy Harry Potter and anything related to it (the books, movies, Hogwarts Legacy game, etc).
Imagine living in a world where you can enrich your life and the things around you with magic, spells, charms…
Prime Video (since it’s included with a prime membership), Spotify family (all spots filled), and kindle (if you consider it a “streaming” subscription).
I unfortunately can’t tape anything where my cat’s water is, because it’s in front of an attic door that I access from time to time… Unless I stock up on tape and re-tape it every time.
