My washing machine has a wheel to select multiple, heat-specific programs but also has a “cold” switch for other programs. I seldom use the heat specific ones, unless I’m particularly interested in a hot wash.
So I guess that the mileage may vary by country (I’m in Spain) and how old a washing machine is (mine is quite old).
At some point you learn to cope. “esta mañana”, “el día de mañana”, “mañana por la mañana”…
Spanish has two: de día roughly “by daytime” and un dia exactly “a day”.
In places like Spain, there are different energy plans and some do include “Peak” and “Valley” price variances. Peaks are high demand, like when cooking dinner, “Valley” are the opposite.
I have an electric kettle of ~1.6L capacity. I fill it with the minimum 0.5L and it boils in less than a minute.
If you’re using a stove kettle, I understand why Microwaves can be faster, but outright saying so is a bit of an exaggeration.
Not trying to defend Russia, but the concept of a Pyrrhic Victory has existed for quite some time.
There’s a tiny game called Loop Hero where your hero goes on a literal loop around the world, facing enemies as they go and while you craft a world of out existence. Pretty fun.
It seems that Meta is low-key following the “everything app” goal that Elon Musk wanted for Twitter/X, tying products like WhatsApp, Instagram, Threads while at the same time distancing themselves from the Facebook brand.
For example, WhatsApp is a chat app that has been enhanced to have Business Accounts, which allows for Bots, Stores and Payments. Further integration with Instagram could potentially use these features to tie together content+business. Threads is an enhancement over Instagram to add textual content.
Not OP, but wren sounds amazing. Thanks for sharing!
Apple won, Epic lost.
As far as I recall and for Linux, the shebang is interpreted by the kernel to execute the text file as the input of a given program. Are you talking about adding a shebang to a C source file? If so, this would not work, because the hash could be interpreted as a preprocessor instruction.
Take into consideration that, in bash, you can use ${0} to get the filename of the current script. If you want the count of lines in your script wc -l ${0} ought do the trick.
If you’re using C, you could rely on the FILE define for your imolementation but the rest implies reading the source code and then acting on it.
From other comments, it seems that there’s regional pricing in place. In Spain, it’s around 20 euros.
Lemmy has a very 2000s forum feeling. Hopefully, smaller communities will continue to exists but we’ll still get some well moderated, huge communities like in Reddit.

While PDX-published games may suffer from the decouplement of features between DLCs, at the very least PDS-developed games have a built-up expertise when it comes to managing this.
As for MMO model, it’s a hard sell because purchased things get made “free” for new comers. It’s one of the crux that EU4 faced when they rolled many DLC features into the base game.
