Maybe it’s iPhone thing? Usually when I see the news like “this amazing innovative feature will be finally available and will change the world”, and it’s something mundane that I was able to use for years, it means that iPhone is getting this feature finally.

I really wish to work in a team where people have naming conventions for branches that are concerned about stuff like that. Must’ve been a nice place to work at.

You mean “I just sent you zip file with my new changes via email, get fucked looser”?

zsh: command not found: rekt

Hey, if you’re poor, just sell your house and your car, that you have when you poor. Everyone has at least couple of houses to sell, right?

Where the fuck have you found whatever weird esoteric distribs you are talking about, and why on earth did you went with those? Depending on the answer to the question, I kind of understand how you managed to make Arch “perform poorly” whatever that means in that regard, you need to have at least basic understanding to use Arch (or treat it as an opportunity to learn).
But you don’t start your experiments with something from third page of Google, at that point you’re an alpha tester.

I wasn’t saying that we have everything available for Linux. Not yet, anyway. I was saying that whatever we have there is usually free and very customisable.
People committing from Windows and especially Mac infrastructure think that since they spent hundreds of dollars on software they use, they will have to do that again if they will swith to Linux. For a lot of people the thought of free software just never crossing the mind

I think you are talking about the situation that might be true 15 years ago, vut right now you’ll be hardpressed to find anything that doesn’t work out of the box on any modern distribution. I don’t know what plugins and dependancies don’t work on your machine, but I assure you it’s not a universal experience, far from it.
Also, most of the software that you use on Linux is free, so you don’t “buy” new couch if your old is built specifically for your old house, you learn to sit on any of the new ones that you can get for free at any moment

They will put their ads elsewhere, somewhere where actual people might see them

Also known as small government

None of that is set in stone, not even in constitution, it’s just a procedure they have. The number of delegates, the process itself, the way votes are counted can be changed at any point.
Obviously nobody will ever think of changing anything while most of the voters don’t give a shit about it. If the popular vote will be different from what delegates want to vote for, you will have a case. Last primaries, popular vote showed that Biden is twice more popular than all the other candidates combined, and all that stories about delegates doing whatever is irrelevant, since the result matches popular vote. And all your “well, they’re lying so I don’t play their games” shtick is irrelevant either. You did nothing and you’re all out of ideas.

Oh yeah, great, let’s change the fundamental protocol on which all the networks in the world are based. Now two third of the devices in the world crashed because you tried to ping 192.168.0.0.1

Well, turned out it’s perfectly OK to start your interview by stating your allegiance to a christian god, so it’s only fair.

Cyberpunk launch was a disaster and the game was a mess, but I think it wasn’t strictly greed based disaster like many others, but more of a fuckup caused in big part by covid. They didn’t have enough time to adapt to the lockdowns and didn’t have either the budget or the will to postpone the launch once again. I’d argue it’s different from just blatant usual shit that other mentioned companies do

In US law specifically no, the US judicial system is purposefully built to give more power to courts to decide things like that on case by case basis and to get this kind of rules of thumb based on previous rulings, but not bounded by them. That’s why it’s so hard to codify anything into law, compared to other countries.

At this point? I think it’s not unreasonable. Given the state of the Republican party right now, you don’t vote for them for their economical policy or whatever they pretended to care about decades ago. They only concern about culture war bullshit, and by voting for them you agree with it, and that includes unwavering hate for LGBT people.

Nobody wants Palestinians to die. Not even people who throw bombs on them in hopes that there are hamas members somewhere among the population. They throw their bombs hoping they don’t kill anyone, that’s very advance wish-based system

No, I don’t really want to talk about it, because we were talking about how 50 million people just straight up didn’t show up. When two thirds of your voting base just have no idea how the system works and don’t do bare minimum to participate, all that stuff you’re talking about is irrelevant. If people participate, it gets way harder to do all the tricks. So, I guess, the simplest of the tricks is to convince everyone that the system doesn’t work and they should just sit at home since it’s rigged anyway.

Whatever you are referring to, could be avoided if there was more people voting primaries and local elections. Twice as many people voted for Biden than for Sanders and Warren combined, and the combined number of votes was about 30 mil. In contrast, 80 mil voted dem in generals. 50 million people ignored primaries.
