There’s a big chunk of the Linux community that will always want to gatekeep it and push out anything that makes it easier for the layman to use

Labour movements, maybe?

This is the attitude that forced Blizzard to rework everything about themselves, caused FFXIV to launch in a disastrous state, and made Concord

My parents still have cable. The buttons are backlit, they turn on when you pick it up and turn off when you set it down. There’s also a mic button you can hold down and talk to input text by voice instead of typing on a virtual keyboard with a dpad. Not rechargeable but two AAs last for a year so why bother with a battery that eventually fails and renders the remote useless?

Even basic remotes are pretty clever now

Every platform needs a terrible meme that never goes away. Reddit picked a shoebox full of semen, we picked cat starvation.

All meat is processed by definition

Mint condition and the other side story about the position and the game is on the phone

Do they use rainwater collection tanks for showers or is it just a buffer tank on the roof to compensate for low pressure?

so you become a pariah if you don’t properly adhere to 100% of the community consensus behaviors.

Just stand up. Pain stops as soon as you put weight on the leg.

I pissed off a power mod and got banned from a handful of subreddits and accidentally posted on one of them with an alt. Both accounts permabanned for ban evasion - even though one of those subreddits was one I only ever posted on with one account. Alts get nuked as soon as I make a single post anywhere, too.

Could get around it with a new email and IP but meh
