Do you purposefully include "their neighbor" because you know your statements would apply the the US invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan otherwise? Is invading a neighboring country somehow worse than invading one on the other side of the world?

Generally aligning stuff isn’t nice. But if you do, it’s tabs up to whatever level of indentation you’re at then spaces the rest of the way. So you wouldn’t have to assume a tab size. And the tabs and spaces have different semantic meaning (indent vs alignment) so mixing them makes sense. It's even built into Jetbrains IDEs, where it's called "Smart Tabs".

Although really just adding a level of indent is better than aligning.

Tabs make more sense because that’s exactly what they’re for, indents. Ignoring how it looks, which makes more semantic sense for an indent, or ? You wouldn’t use a bunch of spaces to indent a paragraph, so why would you use it to indent code?

mediabiasfactcheck, the site that squashes two complex spectrums (left vs right, unbiased vs biased) into a one dimensional line, making no distinction between centrism and being unbiased.

Type: Statutory corporation with a royal charter

A statutory corporation is a government entity created as a statutory body by statute.

It doesn't matter what language you try to couch it in, "state funded", "editorial independence", whatever. It was founded by the state, is funded by the state, and is a government entity. If it quacks like a duck.

What lies? Pushing back against western propaganda isn't lying.

and reliable reporting as you can get outside the BBC

"Russian state owned media bad. British state owned media good."

I guess you’re just assuming it’s bad based on its name

No, we know it's bad because it's literally run by the US government.

But with tabs each contributor is free to choose how the indent looks. If it looks horrible on some system, that’s a configuration issue.

if you change tab with then your space alignment breaks

No, it doesn't? Here's the exact same text content with different tab widths:

The tabs are smaller but the spaces are the same, so the alignment remains.

You're supporting US foreign policy by repeating pro-NATO talking points.

I also have another colleague from Ukraine who left in 2014… Guess why

The US backed coup led by militant fascists? The new government's violent response to people of the Donbass wanting to secede?

what I’m surprised about is to find people like you in the main instance of lemmy. I thought that they were contained into the lemmygrad sub but I was wrong, you somehow made your way to the mainstream meeting point.

Do you not know what the ml in lemmy.ml is supposed to mean? It's Marxist-Leninist. This is a general purpose instance, but it was made by "tankies" as you'd probably call them.

Putin isn’t a Nazi, Prigozhen is.

And even if it was Nazi vs Nazi, you shouldn’t be rooting for either side.

Imagine not having an IDE that automatically fixes the spacing of pasted text.

Hi, I'm a dev from hexbear and it looks like my first UI changes (relating to post listings) were included in this release.

Here are the changes I made:

  • Expanded image and body now show below the rest of the listing.
    • And also offset to not be under the votes and thumbnail.
  • Post title doesn't jump to a new line when you expand the image.
  • Thumbnail doesn't disappear when you expand the image.
    • Does not apply on mobile since things don't jump around as much.
  • Clicking expanded image opens the original in a new tab.
    • Does not apply on mobile since you can just long press.
    • Instead tapping the image closes it.
  • pictrs images now prefer the original format over jpg.
  • Rendering split into many functions to improve readability.
  • Post actions are now on the same line as the comments button.
  • Post actions now show on mobile.
  • Comments button made larger.
  • Expanding or contracting an image now expands or contracts the body.

I'd love to hear any feedback or ideas anyone here may have.

Besides your IDE of choice screaming at you that you are mixing tabs and spaces that is

JetBrains IDEs actually have it built in, it's called "smart tabs".
