AFAIK, they are used as relays.
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-bit_computing#1-bit
Computers and microcomputers may also be used, but they tend to overcomplicate the task and often require highly trained personnel to develop and maintain the system. A simpler device, designed to operate on inputs and outputs one-at-a-time and configured to resemble a relay system, was introduced. These devices became known to the controls industry as programmable logic controllers (PLC).

Not the first time someone says it fails.
But I cannot get it to fail, it works for me.

I tried Pixelfed (very briefly) not so long ago. I didn’t find a propper way to search for content. How do you discover new content?

Notes:
Starting from the 3rd post, most of them are full stories. But I haven’t read everything, so I’m not sure how much of it is really scifi, although he’s most known for his cyberpunk stories in the 80s and 90s.
Here you have one I posted previously: “Homo sapiens declared extinct” by Bruce Sterling (1999)
From his wikipedia page:
Michael Bruce Sterling (born April 14, 1954) is an American science fiction author known for his novels and short fiction and editorship of the Mirrorshades anthology. In particular, he is linked to the cyberpunk subgenre.
Sterling’s first science-fiction story, Man-Made Self, was sold in 1976. He is the author of science-fiction novels, including Schismatrix (1985), Islands in the Net (1988), and Heavy Weather (1994). In 1992, he published his first non-fiction book, The Hacker Crackdown: Law and Disorder on the Electronic Frontier.[1]
The only one I know is Bruce Sterling’s medium:

I’ve been waiting for years for “non-destructive edition” (AKA smart objects). It’s a fundamental feature that I use (almost?) always as a first step. IMHO a lof of professional work is not practical without it.
They had it on the roadmap (see 2020 archive) for years marked as “No[t started]”. The current roadmap looks more promising with “link layers” marked as WIP and saying it could be available on GIMP 3.0.2.
Then I have no idea :/.
Good luck!
That’s weird. The only reason I can think of is, if you have tweaked with userChrome.css
, the toolbar with the question may not be visible. I say that because it has happened to me :). You can try restarting with add-ons disabled (via about:profiles
) and see if there is any difference.
EDIT: Another option would be that there is some setting I’ve changed to allow this. But if I did, I don’t remember doing it :/.
Here it is how it should look like:
Other proposed solutions are valid, I just wanted to add that…
So in my address bar I can type work and it will open up 5 pages that will be associated to that keyword.
To get exactly this behaviour, you can have a bookmarklet with the keyword work
and this in the URL field:
javascript:(() => { ['https://ddg.gg', 'https://google.com'].forEach(w => window.open(w)) })();
Some notes:
I also added the source there :)
