Not a computer game but Tetris-like, Lonpos Cosmic Creatures had me thinking which of the irregular pieces fit allong any jagged edge for a while.

Obviously not the first but might win a “most basic browser currently maintained” competition if it qualifies (not if HTML rendering is a criterion).

I have never used iOS but I’d guess that makes browsing on it a little less convenient than on a terminal with curl.

Electrolytic capacitors are closer to batteries than to non-polarized capacitors. Lithium-ion cells in capacitor housings also exist, presumably to evade tariffs and restrictions involved in shipping batteries.

The Raspberry Pi cam can be used as a webcam by the Pi or another computer connected to the Pi via USB.

But why? That’s like wanting an open source hardware mouse – look up the datasheet of the main IC and the suggested design is pretty much the entire schematic.

Some name brands still just rebrand white label products. Look if the same form factor appears on Ebay or has been reviwed by a YouTuber. Most will internally deinterlace the video with a terrible algorithm.

1923 people expected mechanical heart transplants to be available today

You couldn’t buy a factory for rubles in 1923…

Only the richest people have horses. Most just use cars.

Most tram networks and passenger trains have been abolished. Yeah, and you can’t walk on the street anymore.

I’m Czech, and exactly 105 years ago (October 30, 1918) the approximately dozen nationally aware Slovaks met in an inn and wrote a letter to Prague that they agree to be part of Czechoslovakia as the “Czechoslovak nation” because they knew they couldn’t form a state on their own, and split off the hated Hungary. The 4 people who signed our “Declaration of Independence” 2 days prior needed someone to represent Slovakia so they went in the streets searching for a Slovak. Vavro Šrobár, a nationally Slovak lawyer who incidentally just arrived to Prague, came forth and signes the document, and became Minister of Slovakia a few weeks later.

The Republic helped Slovakia reach its industrial potential and gave its people democratic values (except for WWII, we don’t talk about Slovakia in WWII). Eventually, Slovak politicians wanted power so they broke off after true democracy was restored in 1989. The Velvet Divorce was so uneventful compared to the end of Communism that people did not really care at all.

So I agree that to informed people in 1923, Slovakia being separate a century later would be no surprise. However, the formation of USSR (which I know much less about) was pretty controversial and involved a civil war so they might be actually be surprised it did last 80 years.

On the other hand, the other changes you glossed over are quite significant, especially with Germany and Poland.

These look very Czech. Thanks!

Everyone gets beautiful people or cool monsters (or both like @Lilith_the_serpent@lemmy.world). Meanwhile DALL-E gives me this for “Chaotic Neutral Czech” and “Chaotic neutral Czech person”, respectively:

Maybe I should get Midjourney?

1 Twitter account is too many.

He just collects content from social media (mainly Twitter search results & comments under Reddit posts). His added value is narration (so that people can listen only) in a unique voice, a few sarcastic remarks and occasionally some boring skits that SponsorBlock rightfully classifies as filler. He is also apparently oblivious to Reddit’s API changes (on the day of the protest, all he stated was that he hopes content returns) and the Twitter acquisition, continuing to use both and never having used content from the Fediverse.

These content-aggregating YouTubers are a dime a dozen, and I would not even call this one a comedian.

Unless your entertainment needs are satisfied with an overly long pronunciation of “skull emojiii”.
