I feel like the joke would’ve landed better if it said “first”. I know it’s pronounced the same way, but I’m gonna argue anyway that there’s a subtle difference. I’ve heard 0th used in cs to describe what was at the 0-index, so in that context 1st would be"second", but “first” generally means “nothing before it”. English is weird. I wonder if anyone knows whether the word “first” or “1st” came 1st (lol)?

I just nab one of these bad boys every few years. Don’t fall for big-electrolyte’s propaganda
Too many puppies in my ass
Underlying kernel aside, I think that the Steamdeck’s SteamOS is an excellent example of how “easy to use” != “smaller feature-set”. I’ve heard countless times from apple dudes that the reason that their stuff allegedly “just works” is because of the lack of some functionally that if present would overwhelm the user. You know, as if ios and android don’t share fundamentally the same user interface principles. But they do have a point, a green user can be overwhelmed when presented with a huge feature set all at once. Yet, despite SteamOS literally having a full-blown desktop environment, the UI frankly is way less confusing than my Xbox. It just goes to show that it’s not about the number of features, it’s about how they’re presented. Power users don’t mind digging into a (well designed) settings menu to enable some advanced functionality, and keeping those advanced features and settings (with reasonable defaults) hidden around the corner behind an unlocked door helps the newbie get started with confidence.
Oh that’s easy. Connecticut
Color is the first thing the eyes tend to notice, then shape, then lines and details. The new icons all look the same at the edge of my vision, I have to look at them straight on to distinguish them. Individually each one is fine but together, like what the hell?
I don’t rawdog Google icons anymore anyway, I use an icon pack
What programming language is Afungus Amongus?
I like to do new Haven style pies. With those there isn’t much crust in the first place, so I try to spread the sauce as close to the edge as I can
51·1 month agoIt’s just another tool. For me personally, at worst it’s like advanced rubber ducky programming. As long as you have the discipline to not use code that you don’t understand you’ll be fine, but that goes for any resources, LLM or not.
I don’t even play any of the games being mentioned, but I’m with you. The commenters here are getting so gatekeepy about, essentially, how other people use their favorite toys. This is fucking entertainment we’re talking about here. Is it really so inconceivable that many people just like those games? There’s a whole world of people beyond yourselves guys.
Depends on the client too I think
I’m the same way with Kazakhstan and Saskatchewan

I kind of brought this up in another comment, that “first” and “1st” aren’t really the same thing. Which is confusing when you extend that to fourth/4th five/5th. I don’t generally see someone write “zeroith”, but I’ll see “0th”.
