Tax cuts only benefit corporations. They already price their goods at the maximum that consumers will (read: are able to) pay. Guess what happens if consumers can suddenly pay 10% more because they don’t have to pay 10% tax?

discount selections made a fraction of a second before it changes position maybe.

This. I don’t understand why the hit areas for popups are hot immediately. That also applies to notifications on phones or new windows on desktop computers.

can you elaborate on type=“datetime-local” not existing?

Oh goddamn, I hate web standards sometimes.

There used to be a proposal for datetime-local, but it was dropped, even though some browsers already supported it. That’s what I meant.

However, some years later the W3C added it to the standard again.

So 1993?

What is wrong with the simple type=“datetime-local”

The problem with that is that it doesn’t exist.

Nitpicking aside, the problem with native browser widgets, in my opinion, are:

• tiny hit areas for desktop users
• no way to highlight certain dates (e.g., holidays) or mark dates ineligible for selection (e.g., future dates)
• no way to indicate the week of year (not an issue for most use cases)
• users don’t know how to un-select a date (you’d think the ‘clear’ button would give that away and you’d be wrong)
• the widget lets you enter invalid dates without telling the user (or the programmer, for that matter), e.g., 31 Sep.

Widgets where you need to click 3 times for a simple selection, as you mentioned, have one of two origin stories:

• They were designed ‘mobile first’ with screen sizes of 320×200px in mind and therefore put a premium on screen real estate.
• The “seeing many things is confusing” camp of designers got hold of them. The fact that my users fail to recognize the ‘clear’ button in the datepicker widget seems to agree with them, but it’s still annoying for people without ADHD.

None of the things in this picture makes sense. It’s a gold mine of Mildly Infuriating

If there’s a whole process about gathering resources, then I agree with you. I was talking about games like <Whatever> Tycoon, where the only resource is money and the only way to get it is to wait for it to accumulate.

You missed the point of my comment: There is always someone waiting. This isn’t cooperative. It’s a waiting game with turns.

For Project Zomboid that take is obviously stupid. But any builder where you’d share a bank account or otherwise a shared bank of resources gets a hard No from me, too. You’re always waiting for the bank account to fill up for the thing you want to build while the other person is throwing money away. Best-case scenario is you’re taking turns, with one person not doing much while the other builds.

If you want to play a game with friends, choose a game that you can actually play with friends, not one where you take turns playing a single-player game.

My opinion. Feel free to disagree.

That never happened to me in the last 10 years of dual-booting.

I found that fairly obvious.

The question why is “lesbian” porn, in the “straight” section?

That’s just a matter of catering to your audience. Some 80% of porn is consumed by men. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0747563225001785 (section 3.2). Any store will display the right-handed scissors more prominently than the left-handed scissors, just because they’re more likely to be looked for.

“Straight” refers to the target audience, not the actors.

Or, if we turn down the tune of “All Men Are Evil” a little bit, heterosexual men find naked women attractive. And two naked women are more attractive than one.

I love to think that my country doesn’t hand out automatic rifles to anyone with a pulse.

As a person living in a civilized country I find it amusing that you have levels for your gear, like in a video game. “Aww man, I didn’t get enough XP in that last level to buy the level 4 chest plate!”

Oh, I misread your comment.

I agree that the uppercase I should be larger than the lowercase L, but i disagree that that’s how most fonts do it.

Only it’s not a cylinder but more like a funnel, where snow can clog up the upper part and not even reach the cylindrical part.
