It’s pretty bad because you need to write for multilingual readers, who may not understand the colloquialism “were just that” & can have a difficult time parsing what the pronoun “that” refers to in such a nonstandard and nonlinear sentence.

If this sentence were part of a novel that already has elaborate prose, it would be fine, but in something designed to inform people on the internet you have to keep in mind how varied your audience is.

Oh wow, misread this as Stellaris including for the first couple sentences in the article and was so confused

You could make a new filetype, default new versions to it, & not break compatibility. Wouldn’t do anything for existing workbooks, and keep xlsx an option, but “it would break compatibility” is not a be-all end-all argument against this.

I thought they disabled sending mobi files last August? As in, August 2022? Did they postpone it?

For anyone who was confused by what “vote to propose” means:

If the FCC issues the notice as expected on October 19th, the next steps would be a public comment phase followed by issuance of a final rule. This process could result in a final rule restoring net neutrality requirements around spring of 2024.

I’d do it if you could leave fully anonymous reviews. But I’m not about to review products with my real name attached to them, even if it’s just first name.

yeah sounds like an a11y nightmare, now every thumbnail will look like a youtube thumbnail with block letter all-caps words over it

We used to rent movies every weekend when I was a kid, and we supported our local video rental store instead of Blockbuster. It was so much fun to decide what to rent! The staff there always knew so much about movies too, and we’d follow their recs often. We watched a bunch of classics and silent films that there’s no way would get visibility on streaming libraries today. I wish I’d kept a journal of all the movies we watched, I remember almost no titles now.
