A.
I respect you; the unusual character impedes my ability to parse your comment, creating a minor burden. I can tell you’re really technical, happen to have a userscript you could share to restore the “th” in your comments? Or could include normal version in spoiler tags? (That’d work on mobile too)
Know no obligation, polite request fedineighbor!
B.
Thx for expanding my brain via challenging parsing

2·19 days agoyo WTF
all nations are being targeted by foreign automated propaganda through their social networks to promote shifts in their governments
Did we win WWII? Did we lead tech for years and years? WHAT HAPPENED? Why USA so friggin exposed to social media equivalent of script kiddies (no, worse/dumber). Like SERIOUSLY we still have some of the best bombs and while we were spending billions developing those WE IGNORED THE FUCKING INTERNET?!
(Yes I would work to make this better, have some small skills here, but don’t understand how we missed an INTERNET sized risk)

3·1 month agoBut but but that’s unacceptable!
Custom hotkey to trigger simple plaintext clipboard script, couldn’t live without it.
(“Script“ is a scary word for many of us but you probably only ever see the code once or instead use some free open source clipboard manager that has “replace clipboard with plain text“ built-in.)

Anyway you’re right, I probably still use a similar workaround once a week!

Technology@lemmy.world•HP's ink-blocking firmware may violate new global sustainability rulesEnglish
3·1 month agoDidn’t expect this in my search results
Inkjet printers are prone to clogging when they aren’t used regularly. The print heads have microscopic nozzles that can dry out and block, leading to poor print quality, streaks, or missing colors. To keep them clear, it’s essential to run a small amount of ink through them periodically.
InkjetStandby solves this problem with a simple, yearly solution. Each week, we provide a printable page with a tiny, multi-colour test pattern. The pattern is placed in a different position each week on a 52-grid layout, allowing you to use a single sheet of paper for an entire year. Just print the page, and you’re done.
(emphasis mine)
Was looking for a weekly cron script as an example of the ink drying issue being prevalent, but this is neat

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I love password based loginEnglish
7·1 month agoBut you know what’s the safest way for us to keep your password safe? Not asking for one to begin with. By not creating a password with us you have no risk of it leaking, and we don’t have to deal with the responsibility of keeping it secure. The sign in link is going to your email, which presumably is protected with two-factor authentication, if you have it set up (which you should!).

They had a follow up later too (paywall)
