Ah of course! That makes more sense. I think it'll take some getting used to but that's already better.
I've just given it a go but unfortunately that's even worse, as I need to reach the very left of the screen. Cheers for the advice though!
There's no way I'd recommend friends and family to the Fediverse, well, at least not Lemmy (can't speak for the wider services).
lo bob
On one hand it's great that they're letting the people vote and debate things like this, but I can't help feel like that this just sets the tone for the party: every single detail needs committees, debates and votes that take a painstakingly long time. Is that how they'd operate if they were in government? There's always going to be factions that argue and delay things. They'll become a bit of a joke if they can't make timely decisions on their positions on matters that require an action relatively quickly.
They're still using computers to do their university work and submit it though. It's more about them not using a laptop in a lecture hall and using pen and paper instead. That's not really a big deal considering that's probably what most people were doing anyway up until relatively recently.
Title is misleading:
Nick, a philosophy student at the University of Cambridge, stopped using his laptop for university work in the last year of his undergraduate degree. He still types his essays, but lecture notes, revision, and essay planning are all done by hand.
The second sentence contradicts the first:
stopped using his laptop for university work
then
He still types his essays
So basically he's not taking a laptop in to the lecture hall to take notes etc but is still using a computer to complete his work. Which makes sense as pen & paper in that environment is way more practical anyway.
I used to work at a popular electrical retailer in the UK, and Samsung had come to our offices with some of their latest appliances, including a fridge freezer with a screen like this. They were trying to demonstrate the feature where you could look inside your fridge so you didn't need to open the door, amongst other things, but it was of course a horrible laggy mess. I told the rep that nobody is going to use this after the first time and it's just easier to open the door and look inside. You could tell he thought it was shit too but couldn't come out and say it, but his smirk said it all.
Sammobile apparently has 1660 "partners", the fuck?
I know it's cool to shit on spotify and streaming services on Lemmy, but personally I disagree. I loved Winamp and had tens of thousands of songs back in the day, downloaded on my zippy 56k dial up connection. But being able to search for and play virtually any song available instantly and share collaborative playlists, no matter where you are, is so much better.
How do you not feel so hungry in the afternoon that you're unable to work effectively?

I was being an idiot, I didn't know you can do it from the right edge.
