The sequence is completely correct until the point it decides that more ◦ less ≡ less.

Meetings! Meetings as far as the eyes can see!

There's no escape, there's no rest. Life is only meetings now.

McDonald’s today looks like the “modern” coffee shops at airports like 10 or 20 years ago.

Yeah, it's the expensive of 20 years ago. It's still chic, because we had a monotone crazy at the 00s, just like we had a plastic crazy in the 70s. It's starting to look tired right now, so expect those places to stop using those soon.

Personally, I do prefer colors, but they are harder to get right, and both examples on the post are horrible. Also, they will probably "upgrade" to some tasteless "rococo" next that won't any better. At least the tasteless monochrome is less imposing than those other ones.

Well, round numbers will indeed make the math easier.

Yes, people some times live up to 120 years. You should start at 60.

Venezuela seems to be having some people revolting (it's hard to say, with them disallowing journalists), but AFAIK nothing changed there.

It's ok, I'll greet most of them back Monday.

And the other ones are just not worth giving.

Looks cheap and uncomfortable.

The 70s had their plastic craziness that lasted for decades, because it was expensive at the beginning. But no, things looking like they are made of plastic is very hard to do well and bad most of the time. Things looking like they are made of wood is normally much better.

That said, yes, your modern example is bland.

Out of two parties in Brazil that make the top 3 rows, one falls all the way to the 4th.

And, of course, out of the 4 main ones that fit the 1st, 3 fit the 4th.

And still don't have enough bandwidth to multiplex all the signals.

Or are they proprietary cables?

Ok, it's cool. But is it good?

It's so hard to find a good gaming mouse!

 

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

 

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

 

The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
