The enemy can’t push a button if you cut off his hand.

Too funny. They’d need to go back to Win95 for all that.

He does Swamp Thing too. Pretty great

I agree 100% with the sentiment, but it 100% does not apply to Linux. The (when it actually exists which too often it doesn’t) ‘manual’ 90% of the time is written out of order by an expert presuming that 98% of what is being stated isn’t greek to the newb and consequently ends up being completely useless if not downright harmful for them.

My favourite so far is: App has feature that can be installed but requires several dependencies before it will install it. The feature has it’s own ‘handy’ cli command to point to an AppImage for a dependency which is useless because THE APP WON"T INSTALL THE FEATURE IN THE FIRST PLACE WITHOUT THE DEPENDENCY.

I don’t want to spend all my spare time for a week learning about commands and syntax for 5 other distros trying to figure out why this fucking [insert device that supposedly nobody else ever has a problem with] isn’t working. I’m not looking for a job in IT. I don’t want to burn my eyeballs out translating nerdspeak. This isn’t fun. I just want to click it and it works, which is apparently still too much to ask for after 20 years and 600 stupid distros later.

RTFM. GFY Linux. Learn how to write manuals first. Far as I can see, it’s a bunch of BS instructions that error out halfway through for some reason or another.

Stop it. I can’t breathe!

When you say “won’t properly display” it is too vague. Just from my experience ‘not properly displaying’ can mean a solid black screen, a black screen full of RGB noise, or a display that is blurry and stripped but you can actually interact with the OS. Could you clarify this?

I’d be happier if they just fix whatever breaks click highlighting in the terminal. I hate that shit and I think it’s accidentally attempting to paste via Ctrl-V that does it so F my habitual ass.

Whenever I need to refuel my rage tank I think of the fact that the Nvidia Settings window cannot be resized AND it’s dimensions are significantly larger than some key display settings like, oh I don’t know 720p . This means you often can’t choose certain settings or APPLY button because it is pushed below screen.

Being able to comfortably change screen resolution is that fucking windows ONE JOB and it fails spectacularly.

Edit: FTR it seems like recent versions do make the window resizable with actual scroll bars but for a long time this basic concept eluded them, and any old windows installs get f’d with this until you update.

Sorry, the absence of god isn’t a hole. It means being a moral person for rational reasons and not because some author of a fairy tale, who also say things like “it’s cool to kill some people”, said so. Even if it ‘was a hole’, filling it with proper education is far superior in all respects.

Edit: and this is the first time I’ve seen someone argue that following a religion is NOT the intellectually lazy thing to do. Amazing.

if that were true she wouldn’t have felt the need to change who she was

It usually looks terrible. Saw the “legit snack” that is Kristen Bell on Hot Ones and it just made me sad seeing what she had done to her face.

Islam is the path forward for the West (and the rest of the world)

… wut.

If anything, Atheism is the way forward.

I have no bans yet feel zero compulsion to return to Bottit

Look, ever since I took that cross Canada passenger flight I’ve constantly bragged about my aeronautical skill.

Kept my seatbelt on when the light was lit: AERONAUGHT!

Don’t take this away from me!

Time can certainly change the answer to a question without any input from the individual user.

If it ‘can’, it can also ‘cannot’. The idiom refers to doing things where time changing is irrelevant.
