Arguably, the fix should be to "it" since anon is a utility account, not a user.

footnote 3: And by extension: any feature that speeds up the audio or video we consume

I disagree that speeding up something is the same thing at all. Playing something at a constant rate (faster or slower) still maintains the editorial choices that the author was talking about.

I speed up plenty of things I listen to, and it's not (primarily) to get through them quicker.

Across the world it's the case that city folk tend to speak quicker than their rural countrymen. American speak slower, on average, than Brits. And that's fine! However, I find it hard to maintain focus when the speech is too slow - so speeding it up allows me to enjoy it like intended.

I definitely agree that the trim silence feature sound awful.

In Deep Space 9, Jake Sisko (the station commander's son) is a journalist for the Federation News Service. There's a good episode where he ends up in a war zone and the story covers cowardice and PTSD.

This a great answer in a sea of slightly odd food choices. It's healthy for kids to do this, apparently.

I think part of the problem is that even when you're subscribed to the small communities, it's easy to miss the posts. Sorting by Scaled helps a little, but I still often find a post from days ago that I missed.

I'd like an option where you could "super subscribe" or something which makes those posts show up first, or even in the inbox.

No, it'll be fine 99% of the time.

Nowadays, feature detection is done within browsers, and the differences between browsers are small enough that servers generally will serve the same version of a page to all.

The fact that it's Nintendo's IP seems the key thing here.

So did Nintendo get Valve to do this, or is Valve just covering its back from the notoriously-litigious Nintendo?

Ah, ok, that makes more sense. That also solves any ordering problem if you, say, you're running local and elsewhere commands and a sync means pressing up gives you an unexpected item.

Sync seems like it's going to be more pain than its worth unless you have all your machines configured the same. I'm not even running the same distros between machines...

I've just installed this from your recommendation and it's brilliant. I love the amateur graphics, it just adds to the charm.

Agreed - it's 25 minutes without filler or repetition. Good stuff.

I'm not sure what you're asking. Do you mean Lemmy communities, Lemmy instances, or something else?
