I am confused about the inclusion of Linux as an OS in this survey. Does a Lemmy package exist for desktop Linux? Or is the Linux option for Linux phones?

Same! I was voluntold for the class basketball team because of my height. I was too unathletic for it, however, and I only lasted one week. However, like you, I can throw paper waste from almost anywhere in the classroom and shoot it into the bin. I can also shoot a worn-out piece of chalk to its container from the middle row. I was pretty lousy with paper planes though.

The "throw trash into the bin" ability comes in clutch when I'm too lazy to stand up and put trash into the bin. That's where I got most of my recent practice!

• I have decent throwing aim. I can shoot most trash into the bin from a couple of meters away. With practice, I can probably increase my range.
• I am pretty flexible for someone my size.
• I have a pretty scary evil laugh that can scare the neighborhood children away.

Yeah, that's a good point. Maybe I can just cut to the chase and outright assert "You did a bad job, hand all your power to me." 😅

I agree~ And thus I would agree that arguing with God ("I can do a better job than you!") might be worth a shot.

Well, you may win the argument against the genie, but it doesn't guarantee that the genie would be granting you more wishes--because maybe they just can't (the universe itself might not let it or something).

Just like some convenience store clerk agreeing that your coupon should be accepted, but the higher-ups won't--and she can't pay for it because she's got even less money than you do.

Also why would the “Scan in store” thing pop up when I’m in my bedroom?

When I try using geolocation for my desktop or my phone connected to my home wifi, it is as if I were in the same building as my ISPs offices (or maybe servers?) I suppose it's the same over there. Maybe there's a CVS near (same building?) your ISPs offices.

Worse than the squircle button design?

• the height of the "Home" button isn't even the same as the rest of the other buttons
• no spacing between the buttons
• the element surrounding those buttons don't even contain buttons properly
• lack of proper spacing between the buttons and the containing element

I am not wanting vast swathes of white space between elements, but if you're giving them background colors so that you indicate where the user can click (and thus interact with the button) at least have some decency to give them some breathing room. Sure, when hovering you can add an effect such that it either changes color, brightness, or gains a glowy border or what have you, but most of the time none of those elements are hovered! You'd be seeing them all crammed together like sardines in a tube!!

Oh, and I got so riled up that I didn't even address that out of place "ExtraCare scan in store" element. Why is it even covering the "Discover" text? Was the foreground some interactive element that just popped up?

Sorry. The more I try to make sense of the UI, the more I think rounded/squircle buttons are the least of the problems there.

Very innocuous, even tongue-in-cheek, but never intimidating, almost verging on almost boring to someone who doesn't listen closely.

So... something like these:

Edit:

Added two more tunes

I've always thought the cut-off is whether it's near the speaker ("here") or near the person being spoken to ("there"). My native language has a three-way distinction (near the speaker ("dito"), near the person spoken to ("diyan"), far from both ("doon")), so it's pretty easy to just collapse it to "here" and "there".

Only for a limited amount of time, kenja time.

I try to reach from different directions:

• upper left (using my left hand)
• upper right (using my right hand)
• lower left (using my left hand)
• and lower right (using my right hand).

For the regions I missed, I have a soapy mesh/loofah thing held by some kind of rope on both ends and with both hands, I use it to reach the unreachable areas:

• left hand upper and right hand lower, loofah going diagonally (like this: \)
• right hand upper and left hand lower, loofah going diagonally (like this: /)
• both hands lower, loofah going horizontal (like this: —)

I suppose that should be enough, but I only do that once a week. For the rest of the week, I just reach as far as I can and let the soapy water do what it can.
