    The book that contains the story Arrival is based on, Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang, is my favorite short story collection.

    Vonnegut’s Welcome to the Monkey House is also a good short story collection.

    Thingiverse was stagnant and underdeveloped for many years and borderline unusable at times, so a lot of people feel pretty strongly about migrating to other sites.


  • If you’re talking about the more limited set of options you get when you right click a file in Windows 11, just hold shift while right clicking to get the original options. You’ve actually been able to hold shift to get additional options going way back, I think to windows XP.

    There’s a lot of extra useful options in there too like opening command prompts to the current folder and copying file paths to the clipboard.

    What do mean? It’s used pretty extensively.

    What people call GIFs these days are almost always not actually GIFs. GIFs will usually have high dithering due to it using an 8-bit color palette and an odd frame rate because the per-frame delay is specified in jiffies so you can’t really get normal framerates (especially high ones).

    What dethroned GIFs was the <video> HTML element. The video format doesn’t matter.
