nice, we could do a lithuanian stress font this way too

Not sure if your comment is sarcastic or not, but I've heard that the best way to start a bar fight in Lithuania is to loudly ask several people a question about stress.

"he will be remembered as the guy i gave an award to", looks like DJT's obituaries

they're made out of water?


i wish a button where a human would have written the text

no offense meant but i find it entertaining that you can be "a big thing" and only a few years in discover that language matters

and the Ampel-couples in Vienna https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampelp%C3%A4rchen


i dunno, if you follow the link to https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/EG.ELC.LOSS.ZS?end=2024... you see Estonia has high distribution losses?


> Albania, Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Estonia, India, Kenya, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Uganda, and Venezuela

Even if Estonia does have stated electricity distribution loss, it still looks so way out of place in this group of countries by so many criteria. I wonder why not pick Egypt or Libya given that they have the same distribution loss.

Edit: this could be the reason - when you click on "Map" above the graph, for some reason Estonia is one of the blue countries shown on the map. Argentina, Brazil, and Kenya are there too (but not others).

'kaod' is losses, this table shows losses from bruto production.

Either someone has been sending wrong data to the world bank or there is some issue with interpreting them before importing to world bank.


Interestingly, this page seems to contain data only until year 2014, but the graph next to Estonia in the grandparent link does show an increase on the right side. Maybe Estonia did indeed experience some changes in overall distribution loss in recent years?


Up from about 6% in 2015-2020 according to the World Bank: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/EG.ELC.LOSS.ZS?location...

But at 2.9% according to Eesti's electricity supplier: https://www.elering.ee/en/electricity-consumption-and-genera...

"In 2024, losses accounted for 2.9% of the total amount of electricity supplied to the transmission system." What does it all mean, who knows.


Elering reports only their part, the very high voltage transmission losses. Then there are the distribution losses on the local level are they're about 4%.

Just because LLMs can write copy for webpages doesn't mean they should. A landing page should not warrant a tl;dr.

good good but are there really websites with 2 or more variously different designs for the same content, like Zen Garden did?


Traditionally, one example is software that supports theming. Site owners who wanted to customize the look of something without getting their hands too dirty writing a whole new theme may duplicate and heavily modify the CSS from an existing one.

For applications people spend a expected to spend a lot of time in, the user may even be able to select the theme.

But, things like CSS custom properties have eaten into some of the basic use cases like palette swaps, assuming they're supported in the default theme.


Absolutely. When I first started building websites in the early 2000s, I was building site networks, where individuals would want their own themable websites quickly spun up. They all used the same backend system and components, each with unique designs and custom stylesheets. This pattern is incredibly common, and a lot of themable website building platforms are built on it.


Light theme and dark theme?


I'd say mobile and desktop (from same html) would be more like css zen garden, than light/dark.


Those are palette variations, not enough Zengarden-like


For some reason this is a thing on almost every private torrent tracker


Don't know why this was downvoted, it is the only zen garden like example I've come across. Multiple completely transformative CSS themes for user selection, not just light/dark/colourisation of the same layout


it's funny because the reference to your quote of her shows it was not a quote of her

we should call that hagbardisms
