… I’m struggling to understand what you mean by “wider”. As in the physical size? It is slightly larger, but even so why is that a factor?

Yes

My biggest problem with that “monstrosity” is that it’s ortholinear.

You imply that such a thing being “optimal” is absurd, but if you had infinite usable desk space then what, exactly, would be the argument against it? If space is not a consideration then what does it matter if you don’t use every key?

Lots of people like smaller keyboards, and that’s perfectly fine. I get it as an aesthetic choice, and for many people it may not impact their daily use at all. But you will not convince me that removing the option of having additional keys for binding is a non-zero cost, even if they’re not currently being used.

For what it’s worth, I never used anything like that monstrosity, but I was quite happy with my G15 for the time that I had it which had 18 additional keys, plus media control, over a typical full size.

Full-size is objectively superior, everything else is a mitigation for sub-optimal circumstances.

If you have reduced desk space and need to conserve your keyboard size to allow more room for a mouse then absolutely, pick as small a keyboard as you’re comfortable with to get sufficient mousing space.

Anything beyond that is subjective personal preference, which again I have no qualms with, but calling it better without further qualification is going to invite incredulity.

PDF to JPEG

Don’t most pdf viewers have an export to image option?

AVC to MP4

Do you actually have files with an .avc extension? AVC is a codec that can be used in many different container formats, including MP4. Where did these files come from?

OPUS to MP3

I actually agree that most audio conversion tools are needlessly awkward. Audacity will convert these just fine, though doesn’t really do bulk conversion. Foobar2000 will do it in bulk if you’re on windows.

Canada can also meet most or all of its own dairy needs. There’s no reason a Canadian should be buying dairy from other countries aside from a few niche/luxury products, so that tariff is fine.

Charging tariffs on things a country needs to import is crazy.

I don’t really like Discord, but it supports message pinning, threaded conversation, as well as a full blown discussion forum option for community channels. Your complaints seem to be more about the moderation of that specific community than Discord itself.

You stated the reason yourself. Those are different values and matching in a case-insensitive manner is more work under the hood.

This was my exact experience as well. I’ll never know how Plex compares to Jellyfin because I immediately noped out when I ran into the account creation.

Frankly baffling to me that anyone with the wherewithal to self host thought that was okay.

My first read of this headline had me thinking “that’s strange, gendered bathrooms are still pretty normal, they can’t possibly have been banned, could they?”

…it hadn’t even passed within miles of my mind that this was talking about racial segregation. I can’t even comprehend this level of regression.

It cannot be overstated how much of a boon Discord’s lack of friction is for connecting with people and forming communities. It is mind-flatteningly easy to get onto Discord and into a community, and while the content of those communities is woefully unindexed deep web, forever sequestered, the external discoverability of the communities themselves is exceptional.

You will not ever reach the same people with the same ease of use as Discord if you use a hosted alternative.

Work, home, online (anonymous), online (WoW friends), online (Elite Dangerous friends), online (Street Fighter friends), IRL friends.

My most common use for Google assistant was an extremely simple command. “Ok Google, set a timer for ten minutes.” I used this frequently and flawlessly for a long time.

Much like in your situation it just stopped working at some point. Either asking for more info it doesn’t need, or reporting success while not actually doing it. I just gave up trying and haven’t used any voice assistant in a couple of years now.

Some people prefer it.

I maintain a small piece of Windows software and originally just provided an installer, but I received enough requests for it that now when I publish releases I provide both an installer and a zipped portable build.

Your laptop uses an iGPU. The “i” stands for integrated, as it’s built into the same package as the CPU.

The alternative, a dGPU, is a discrete part, separate from other components.

They’re saying that your situation is becoming increasingly common. People can do the gaming they want to without a dGPU more easily as time goes by.

I’d argue that Li should be red and Hg should be yellow.

Elemental mercury in liquid form is fairly safe. It needs to get into your blood in order to be a problem, and even if some does stick to your tongue and get swallowed the digestive absorption is extremely low.

Mine does something similar but there’s simply more pixels for it to float around in, so nothing clips. It’s a 3440x1440 display, but the actual physical screen is something like 3460x1460 so the image can shift without clipping.

Depending on the division you ended up in at the company I work you might need one or more of MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, C#, TypeScript, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, VB.NET, Terraform, Groovyscript, or PowerBuilder.

OP doesn’t seem to have responded, so no, but that’s not the fault of the question.

Because of the XY problem. The problem OP is stating may not actually be the source of the issues OP is experiencing.

Finding out what OP is trying to do will better inform a solution and may make the stated problem irrelevant.
