Unlike on Reddit, you can still edit the titile. And add a source link.

Renumbering characters during font minimization? I haven’t encountered that, it would break searching and copying.

Anyway, PDFs for example don’t even say whether a line of text is left, center or justified – they usually store the coordinates of the first character and then spacing to each subsequent one unless defined by the font.

And what if the document contains text boxes, or other Word objects? Well, the text is separate from the underlying rectangle (if there is one) and it’s up to the conversion tool to guess if it’s part of the main text layer.

Sorry, it’s really hard to edit PDFs. You might want to use Inkscape for editing the graphical parts. If you also need to edit paragraphs, I suggest recreating the document by pasting them into Word/LibreOffice, and importing any graphical shapes as SVGs (use Inkscape for the conversion, then you can try Word’s “Graphic > Convert to Shapes” feature).

Really, every software that outputs PDF should treat it as an export process, hopefully making it clearer that “saving as PDF” is visually lossless but structurally lossy and messy.

Not very rubber now, is it?

The way you wrote it, there is no formatting distinction between emphasis (nonbinary) and stage directions (laugh track). I suggest you use something else for one of these, preferably the latter:

u might even say its a nonbinary choice *laugh track*

u might even say its a nonbinary choice [laugh track]

Please use different formatting for emphasis and non-speech. I recommend escaping the asterisks with backslashes for the latter.

Notepad++'s performance is one of the main reasons I run it under Wine despite the filesystem annoyances. VSCodium is not not nearly as responsive.

Because development of mechanical devices does not hype investors nearly as much

What are good Notepad++ alternatives that run natively on Linux?

Is there a tool to automatically check partitions for excessive log files, caches or other junk? The root partition of a Linux box I have is 60 GiB and almost full, and XFCE will fail to start when there’s no space. I would use WinDirStat on Windows but the Linux alternatives can’t do the job properly because they scan by file tree and some subdirectories of / are on other partitions because of symlinks… I guess I could boot a live USB and mount my ext4 root partition but not the NTFS storage one but I’d rather avoid that.

There’s a god of gender fluid?

There are some on Friendlica and Pixelfed but otherwise, you need to get outside the Fediverse to spot them.

I sure hope so. Half of the Fediverse uses them. We don’t want people thinking “no way I’m clicking sh.itjust.works”

We’re really consuming them at an alarming rate. Soon, the only affordable ones will have either 20+ characters, a sus TLD, or just be a nonsensical string nobody can pronounce.

I guess the dumb one just shows a number, the smart one will also tell you “it’s not bones or muscles but fat, dumbass” and tell a data broker so the health insurance company can update your plan accordingly
