Jesus, this was embarrassing to read. You’re not just wrong, you’re also a massive asshole about it.

That’s exactly what an FBI plant would say!

I’m not sure that it can be clearly delineated as a time loop or a causality loop, it’s honestly a mix of both - though you’d probably call it a causality loop, as each “instance of a person” only experiences the loop once.

Well yes, you didn’t get first ads. But what about second ads?

What about stories about time travel that ultimately form a closed loop? There’s one that has people moving forwards and backwards through time, yet forms a closed loop at the end: >!Dark!<

Absolutely, I’m still regularly shocked how normalized those words have become. They are absolutely accurate from a corporate perspective, but why are we all using those same words? They reduce any creative endeavors to the positive effect on the extraction of wealth by the rich through influencing others into buying shit they don’t need or want. “Influencer” should be a pejorative, not a job title!

“Why are we responsible for the bombs we keep sending to Israel?”

You mean on Iraqi landscapes?

Man, your dad must have had you early, two children before 9…

Well if it were closed source, it would be harder to repackage proprietary apps because you would not know how the snap “root filesystem” translates to $DISTRO root filesystem.

Only if all the other tools (like Snapcraft) were also made closed-source and obfuscated, but that’s besides the point. What if, for example, Snaps start costing money, and you can’t legally turn them into Flatpaks and distribute them? What if the only legal way to get some software for Linux will be the official Snap repository? This approach will make for a far worse user experience than simply using the already working, already open-source and non-enshittifiable alternative.

Because some apps are only packaged as snaps so if you want them to be accessible to users, you have to install snapd. Flatpak can still be the default which on non-Canonical distros already is. Which why I don’t even worry about snap becoming the standard.

And by promoting Snap to the same status as Flatpaks on other distributions, you’re opening the gates for enshittification and a worse user experience tomorrow. Again, why support it as an equal option if we all know the price?

I’m aware, it was mostly a joke about these “features” making Notepad worse. Nevertheless, thank you :)

I could come on your stupidly expensive car, if you want

Like when it’s shipped to you, I could lay on there all sexy

and come

IIUC USB-C puts less mechanical stress on the port and more on the cable connector, so instead of the port breaking the cable should break.

Circular connectors wouldn’t be backwards-compatible either, and would be much harder to manufacture at the size of USB-C. I actually can’t think of circular connectors with more than 2 data channels that can be plugged in in any rotation - do you have an example? All the ones I can think of (PS/2, XLR) have a set orientation.

More like Notepad–, amirite

Have you never boiled your steak? It’s delicious, and you get free steak water.

Could she just get away? It seems the monkey was moving freely, and a monkey can fuck you up pretty hard.

Fuck I just got that, nice!

Pretty much no way to do so without losing most USB-C benefits.
