Assuming that the mouse pointer is parallel to the display and that a light themes is used, the visual click zone is positioned below and to the right of the upper left corner.

E: correct content

E₂ (correction): The visual click zone should be more than 1 px², but it's not misaligned.

The IME is in Chinese mode, so the turtle would have likely typed nothing.

Using 24-hour format and 12-hour format together is worse than using either of those alone. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Now I'm wondering whether corporations would use 6-hour shifts (2.5 dec) instead of 8-hour shifts (3.33... dec) when switching to decimal time.

Probably. The sample size of this showerthough is pretty small.

I assumed that lunar months are delimited by full moons, but I was wrong.

The metric counterpart to mouse DPI would likely be cm⁻¹. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

mm⁻¹ would be unintuitive since that kind of micro adjustments are uncommon in my opinion.

This is actually a good idea. I have considered "/cm", "pcm" (per centimeter) and "cpcm" (counts per centimeter), but they don't look right in my opinion.

Yes, I know that calling it "mouse DPI" is technically incorrect.
