@remi my mom always calls it the Holy Trinity.
I've heard "three-finger salute".
Which is often accompanied by the third finger salute given to the computer by the other hand.

You probably also want to set

@Zerosquare This is why @cartman82 won't hire you.

I'd rather be bitten by an actual snake over having to use Python in any greater capacity
Pythons don't bite
They strangle instead.

He said he'd be here.

@HardwareGeek no, more waiting for myself to actually commit, I suppose. Which, incidentally, is about the same thing.

Wait til you see JSX, which puts HTML into Javascript.

Not to be confused with the KeePassXD extension, which forwards all of your passwords to The Dark Web directly.

@remi said in Cross-platform development:
working with hardware is IMO somewhat uncommon
Hmmm.....
I know you do, and the other person I was talking with above does, and on top of my head I can name at least one other regular that I'm pretty sure does hardware development.
But then again, on the same sample (of members of this forum), I don't do anything with hardware, the other person with whom this discussion started also doesn't, and if I were to list all people that I'm pretty sure also don't (except maybe for "configuring a router" or similar, which isn't really "working with hardware" in the context of this discussion about Qt), it would be faster for me to link to https://what.thedailywtf.com/users.
So yeah, you're uncommon. Here's your gold star: .

@Gurth said in HTML accessibility for the vision-impaired:
I fairly frequently have things like
φυβαρ (“foobar”)
in the text and don’t want a screen reader to say words like that twice.Especially since the pronunciation is very different.
φυβαρ
would be pronouncedfivar
. To getfoobar
, you'd need to writeφούμπαρ

@Arantor said in The forum life:
There is a need to be able to display the same topic in multiple contexts, indeed I can think of several beyond this specific use case.
Is there?
I've never encountered the need to post a topic in multiple categories on a forum.But, but... how about having a new tag cloud to attack?
-
@Zecc we always need a new tag cloud to attack.

@Gustav said in What gaming monitor to get?:
If I had a nickel for every time someone skips reading the part in parentheses... I'd have two nickels. So far.
If I had a nickel for every time someone on a help thread humblebragged what they can "see" (or start on a tangent about movie projectors and some such shit), I'd have nickel poisoning.

In a place called Vertigo?

Not sure I get that reference.
-
@Dragoon Oh well then

Ah, yeah not a U2 fan so not familiar with anything of theirs that doesn't see ad nauseam airplay.
I have heard the song before(after pulling it up on youtube), but not something that I would ever recall otherwise.

@Zecc said in Semi-quasi-unofficial unhelpful comments:
Fun fact: "lambada" means, besides the dance (and in PT-PT in particular), slapping someone. Dictionary says in PT-BR it means hitting with a flexible object, like a whip.
Puts @1:36 in a new perspective, doesn't it?
in pt-br I never saw it used for anything other than the dance, slapping someone could be a palmada
-
@sockpuppet7 Now I'm curious. How about "chapada"? I'm guessing no.
-
@Zecc chapada(o) on pt-br would normally mean someone on drugs

I have said similar to my wife. It redirects the fury at me instead of whatever it was. Then, eventually, we can deal with the problem.

A phrase surprisingly absent from the bio, so information is entirely likely to be more cromulent.

Because this crowd isn’t just some forum randos! I’ve been here long enough to have some idea how much competence there is and how much trust I can place in that.
Unlike a certain other forum I could mention.

If you have to ask then he probably wasn't asking you.

@boomzilla I wasn’t, but mostly because last I checked HardwareGeek wasn’t a web dev…

More trust than I do, obviously.

Well I'll be damned. For running Windows 7 in a mode capable of hitting the Internet.

Your commitment to acquiring qualitative data is commendable, but wholly unnecessary.

It's the only thing that keeps me sane.
