I thought it was tuna (or other sashimi) with a little fat on it. Either way, that emoji does not convey my reaction at all.

I don't often eat these nowadays, but if you remind me that they used to be called Opal Fruits they taste better.

I thought at some point they were calling 720p "HD ready" and reserving "HD" for 1080p. It's all a bit of a mess, but that's pretty standard for tech names, as well as the TLAs, ETLAs and DETLAs.

lemmy.ml is replacing some of your word with another one. Good ol' Scunthorpe problem!

4 out of 4, which seems a slightly unintuitive scale

Finally, there’s a level 4 sting, which is as bad as it can get. Schmidt knows of only three critters capable of inflicting level-4 suffering: the warrior wasp (Synoeca septentrionalis), a two-and-a-half-inch-long black bug found in the tropics; the bullet ant (Paraponera clavata), also tropical; and the tarantula hawk (genus Pepsis), two inches long, which Schmidt can find in his yard in Tucson.

btw, this image is a legit snippet from the wikipedia page Schmidt sting pain index although it doesn't make clear that Schmidt didn't get stung on purpose for science.

I just accidentally stumbled across some proof for my looks-over-usability statement:

In addition, the “Search Bar” settings in Settings > Search, which let you choose between using the address bar for search and navigation or add the search bar in the toolbar, is also gone in Firefox 122.

This doesn't affect me, but I'm sure there's going to be a vocal tiny percent that absolutely hate this news.

Something I missed first time was

The data was collected from 2011–2015

Hopefully, it's better now (based on nothing).

I know most people don't seem to have the ability to look through menus and identify the thing closest to what they want to do. I think software might be more difficult to use now, too - the trend for "clean" design means that usability and discoverability goes out the window.
