I think the origin was that Surface devices had a dedicated Office button, so you could press Office+W to open Word and such. Office+L opened LinkedIn

But this button was internally just mapped to Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Win, giving this shortcut. I am actually impressed that it uses your default browser though instead of forcing Edge.

I think I've heard that Microsoft is replacing it though unfortunately (but I don't have a source, so take it with a grain of salt)

I also talked to a design student who said that the whole design community hated the current save icon, so we might be doomed to a new meaningless minimalistic icon.

Cat.

Or you could get a QR code reader that displays the URL before opening the browser.

CloneZilla has worked well for me in the past

Travel agents are still widely used by small and medium sized businesses. It's much faster to say "Get these two people to London for these days" in an email instead of manually looking for flight tickets and hotels.

But I haven't heard of anyone using them for private trips in a long time.

I'd guess it depends on the chain. I know of one retailer where a store pickup would count as an in-store sale, which gave revenue to that particular store. This applied even if the in-store pickup required the item to be shipped to the store first

Probably just that Pikachu often says "pika pika", and sometimes variations like "pika pi"

One way is to go to [instance url]/instances to get a list of federated instances, and see if it appears there. For example, to see who lemmy.world federates with, go to https://lemmy.world/instances

I picked a dragon because I like dragons

This list contains pretty much everything I wanted in this app. Thank you for your work

This looks really nice, I'll star it so I remember to download it later

Some password hashing functions have a maximum input length. That could be a reason for some of the requirements. E.g. if I remember correctly, bcrypt used a maximum of 60 characters, while still being an ok choice for a hashing function

I really love concept albums where the chorus of the first song makes a return in the finale. Makes it feel so conplete.

Examples, all power metal:

• Gloryhammer - Return to the kingdom of Fife
• Memories of Old - The Zeramin Game
• Marius Danielsen's Legend of Valley Doom - (all three albums listened to together)

Same here. I really want to like The Witcher 3, but after trying to play it for 10 hours without feeling any enjoyment, I just gave up.

I love Loftoff so far, but I'll probably move to Boost once it's released, since that's what I used for Reddit for many years

"Do you want millions? Millions of my children?"

I've used Mint since I started using Linux, and never had any major issues. I've therefore just stuck with it. I don't always have the time to tinker with my machine if something should break, and Mint usually just works when I need it, while still providing flexibility when I want it (and Timeshift to fix it when I break stuff)

The font on that website is so thin and bright (on my device) that I can't even read it
