Gestrid

It doesn't just happen when both people are trying to turn. I have a busy multi-lane road near me with a left turn lane that's just past a stoplight (the stoplight is behind me, but in front of the people whose lanes I need to cross to get to where I need to go.

I'll be stopped in the turn lane waiting for traffic to clear. The stoplight will turn red, and oncoming traffic will back up past the turn lane I'm in. Someone in one of the oncoming traffic lanes will stop before the turn lane to try to let me past, but the people in the other oncoming traffic lane (who are now in my blind spot thanks to the car that stopped to try to let me through) will keep on coming. That's just an accident waiting to happen at that point.

That's... a great question. What's the purpose of a gif with only one frame?

A server I'm in actually has a bot that, whenever a user types a command, will respond to a question with an answer.

Simple example:

@\Johnny: "Hey, my browser says 404, what does that mean?"

@\Support: !\404 @\Johnny"

@\Bot (using Discord's reply feature to reply to Johnny's post): "'404' is a common error message that can be caused by a variety of issues. Here are steps to resolve the most common issues:..."

I didn't feel like typing out steps to check if the website is down for everyone or to fix it if it's just you, but you get the idea.

The server I'm in doesn't typically handle questions about that, either. They're more specialized to something more specific that that, but, again, you get the idea.

and is already getting enshittified.

Not yet. They're still trying to squeeze money out of people with their profile pic frames and stuff. They've yet to introduce ads into app (for now).

I just got a ping the other day from a Discord server that said they'd finished moving their support onto a forum on their website specifically because Discord's forum feature is terrible.

Oh, look, it's Reddit all over again.

(Yes, yes, different reason. Same user response, though.)

With the second paragraph, I was mainly referring to your first comment about it being cumbersome (sorry for doing that out of order), which I took to be referring to the whole process. I probably could've phrased that a lot better.

Honestly, it's easier for me to just double-tap the power button to open the camera and scan the QR code than to have to open my bookmarks.

And I don't mind that the SSID for the wifi changes every time. Again, it's simply faster to turn off data and scan the QR code than it is to force my phone to connect to a network that isn't connected to the internet.

Yeah, there's more convenient ways this could've been done, but it's not a horrible design.

Edit: fixed a typo ("eventually time" -> "every time")

It's been a function for at least a few years. And they didn't mention whether it had to be new or not.

You can actually go on your PS5 and re-send those photos or videos if you need to. Just hit select when you've got the photo you want to re-send highlighted, and an option to send it to the PS App will appear.

You can directly connect to the Switch over a wifi network it creates. You can select up to 10 photos to share at a time. It'll create a one-time-use wifi network (the connection details are different every time) and generate a QR code so you can connect to it. After your phone is connected, it'll generate another QR code that'll direct you to a webpage (a local IP address, specifically) where you can browse and download the photos from.

Make sure to turn off data on your phone while you're trying to do this. Some phones use data as a fallback if the wifi network they're connected to isn't connected to the internet.

Posting photos and videos from the Switch directly onto Twitter.
