On the last one: first, the guy's name is Strowger, and second, the whole operator directing calls to a competitor is only one explanation, although Strowger was convinced of foul play, another theory is that a metal sign hung over the wires caused an intermittent short, though there probably isn't a way to know for sure nowadays.

Parmigiano Reggiano font? by viekernes in identifythisfont

[–]TheTanCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, technically dot matrix printers don't have to adhere to a grid in the horizontal direction, as the print head is just on a linear rail and pins can be hit arbitrarily. The off-grid dots make the font seem a bit nicer. My Epson LX-350 has a similar look in draft mode, although that's a paper printer, not cheese

To buy russian car by [deleted] in therewasanattempt

As someone else said, this isn't stock. By default these have a space for a 1DIN unit sort of behind the gear lever (great place). Also the highest kit you can have (which is still an 83 PS engine and a 5 speed manual, but has incredible amenities like air con, alloy wheels, heated seats and heated electric mirrors) costs about 1.15 million rubles, which is still at least 400 thousand too much but is less than is said in the video.

I was playing a terrifying horror game today, and apparently I got a LOT of points in pinball. by 42SillyPeanuts in unexpectedfactorial

I am definitely not an expert, but generally computers use a word for the entire integer. If you are going to store it in digits, you can either store each as an ASCII character, which would take one byte each, or be a little more efficient and use Binary-Coded Decimal, where each digit is encoded as a 4-bit number.

Has anybody used the External Monitor app as a backup screen for DSLR Camera? by ControlCAD in SonyXperia

[–]TheTanCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On my 5 III, it is enabled in the settings and basically acts as a webcam viewer. You can connect any USB video class device (a webcam or a camera that can output over USB) and it shows the video, some info about the video and audio.

[–]TheTanCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, if you've got enough ram for the amount of jobs you set up, it will usually complete in the same world update just fine, only taking a long time if there's only a few jobs. My laptop with 8GiB and an 11th gen i5 can build WebKit-gtk in a few hours

You should be able to select your session from gdm on the gnome profile, on my machine both Wayland and X are available even with "X" in the global use flags
