not() is a base function that negates what’s inside (turning True to False and vice versa) giving it no parameter returns “True” (because no parameter counts as False)

Actually, not is an operator. It makes more sense if you write not() as not () - the () is an empty tuple. An empty tuple is falsy in Python, so not () evaluates to True.

Oh, really? That’s disappointing to hear; I had no idea he was like that.

Oh hey, it’s the Minecraft guy

Last I heard they want to switch to another platform, and don’t consider it worth upgrading to 0.19 because they’re leaving soon so it wouldn’t be worth the hassle.

This is pure guesswork on my part, but they could be waiting for Sublinks (a Lemmy-compatible backend) to get up to speed before switching to that. They say that the new platform is “compatible with all Lemmy apps”, and Sublinks is the only project I know of that fits that criteria.

It’s a joke.

It’s a milk bottle warmer; you can see the milk bottle sticking out of the top.

On macOS you can hold down ‘e’ to do this, too.

Italy, Spain and Austria are in purple. “Mixed” means that there was a mix of left and right in various regions of the country.

I didn’t know about that community, but I also don’t see why I shouldn’t post here? The beauty of the Fediverse is that there can be many places that serve the same purpose.

Yeah, data could be skewed for countries with very low populations. That could be why Greenland is left out, despite data being available from the wikipedia page that the data is taken from.

That would be correct. There are clearer ways that the data could have been displayed

OC isn’t claiming that the shift in the industry is solely Apple’s fault:

I don’t hate Apple but I do hate their influence

The reality is that what OC said is exactly what happened. Apple removed the headphone jack to coerce people into buying AirPods. Everyone else released their own wireless earbuds to compete, and also removes their headphone jacks for the same reason.

Lemmy can do this natively on instances running 0.19.0 or above, too.

Swift’s extensions system has spoiled me, and I feel the pain of this whenever I have to write Java

Right click on a MacBook depends on how the user configured it, which always trips me up whenever I use someone else’s. The default behaviour is a two-finger click, but it can be changed to single-finger clicking in the bottom-right corner instead. You can control+click too with both configurations, but that sucks
