That sounds like an XOR pointer, which did used to be a standard feature in Windows. There were patents on it and xorg were threatened with legal action by the patent holder, so I don’t think it was ever added to X. Those patents have probably expired now, so it may be possible to do.

alberttcone@sh.itjust.worksto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•tonight is the night i drink scotch3·11 days agoCaol Isla is my favourite - the best of the Island whisky, in my opinion. If you like it, I’d recommend trying Talisker and Bowmore. If you enjoy the peat notes, Laphroaig is the daddy.

alberttcone@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?6·6 months agoSure it does, but most countries see the US as an ally and a valuable trading partner.
alberttcone@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?9·6 months agoCountries outside the US don’t see it as an enemy, but as a wealthy partner. Having that partner suddenly go insane and lashing out at its friends due to a malignant brain tumour is sad to see. They might well support surgery to remove the tumour in the hope that their former partner can one day recover.
alberttcone@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•RFK Jr’s claim about Black people’s immune systems is ‘unscientific and terrifying’4·9 months agoIt’s a bit complicated, both because some studies just asked people if they are ‘natural redheads’ and didn’t actually test whether they have the MCR1 mutation and because it depends on the mechanism of action of the drug. Some sedatives are less effective, so need higher doses, but the majority of opioid based pain control drugs require lower doses in redheads.
alberttcone@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•RFK Jr’s claim about Black people’s immune systems is ‘unscientific and terrifying’7·9 months agoRedheads need a lower opioid dose than the general population to achieve the same effect. At least those who are redheads because of a mutation in their MCR1 gene, which is about 75%, IIRC. Interestingly, the same mutation group also have worse tolerance of cold, which seems odd given that scotland is the global redhead centre!
I think that it’s implicit that the volume of Godzilla would increase; we need to assume that the bounding layer has a degree of elasticity and that that the matter displaced by the flotation cavity will expand into that, reducing the net density.
Mighty Godzilla, with power untold
Rises through the waves; his powers unfold
Hidden muscles in clever design
Create a new chamber as they realign
Inflating his body, a titanic display
Defying the depths, he floats up and away
No long bound by the oceans’s might
Godzilla soars, a triumphant sight!
Corned beef? What in Gods name would that be doing in a Full English? A proper Full English is served scalding hot on a plate that’s nearly glowing red. The egg is fried and has brown crispy bits, the bacon fat is browned but the meat is tender and the sausages are anything between brown and dark brown. The beans, well, if you aren’t mad you ask for it without those because they’re disgusting. The bread should be either toasted & buttered or fried in the bacon fat. Deranged people will add HP sauce or, heaven forbid, tomato ketchup, but it is best to offer such people pity and support in the hope that they will one day recover.
