I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you take the deal: Musk admits he rigged the election and provides proof in exchange for a pardon from the next Democratic president.
5·6 months agoIf what the Bernie Democrats want can nearly all get done, sure. But just having a Democratic president doesn’t mean that. It doesn’t even mean what Democrats want would necessarily get done. Look at Biden’s student loan relief.

1·6 months agothat just says there’s no evidence for the apocryphal theory of it slowing typing down, not what you said about speeding it up. plus “slows it down” is a corruption of the original apocryphal idea that it speeds up typewriting by preventing jams due to neighboring keys being pressed

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do Americans want to know the month first and the day second?
2·6 months agoThat’s an apocryphal explanation for QWERTY’s design. I personally doubt it since “a” and “s” are placed right next to each other. Additionally, placing keys further apart doesn’t mean they’re slower to type. (In fact, anecdotally, it can be the opposite. In piano, incorrect fingering disproportionately affects playing keys that are right next to each other.)

some studies on keyboard layout have suggested that, for a skilled typist, layout is largely irrelevant – even randomized and alphabetical keyboards allow for similar typing speeds to QWERTY and Dvorak keyboards – and that switching costs always outweigh the benefits of further training with a keyboard layout a person has already learned

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Hey Lemmy, what browser do you use and why?

I thought it was Latin and not Greek and wanted to confirm. In hindsight the -ic should’ve made it obvious; maybe I thought it was a construction made after Ancient Greece.
We don’t surface downvotes. I find no issue with surfacing upvotes. If someone would want to snoop through every comment looking for some upvote from a specific user, that unfortunate victim would’ve gotten some other and easier harassment directed at them from that someone anyway.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do websites still include those buttons to share articles in 2025? does anyone even still use them?
1·8 months agoI don’t do ts either. I just often saw them in URL parameters and searched up UTMs a few years ago and found stuff lol

For me personally I cannot externally observe how obvious my sarcasm is, so I always use it just in case. Plus on many platforms you can spoiler the /s anyways.
