Wait… You’re supposed to take notes? And study outside of class?!

Is that the Mermaid Man & Barnacle Boy theme song from Sponge Bob…?

I didn’t say “nobody”, I said “practically nobody”, and that’s exactly the amount of users of those OSes/stores. Out of ≈7B smartphone users, even being giga-generous, maybe ≈1M use them (realistically, it’s a fraction of that). That’s ≈0.014%, about the same ratio of people getting struck by lightning annually, or, you know, practically nobody.

Sideloading is just a normal term for a specific kind of installing, different than the default method of using the preinstalled store app. Practically nobody actually installs applications on phones from outside those stores. It’s a useful and meaningful distinction, and much shorter than saying “installing apps by means other than official stores”. You don’t “sideload” an app on your PC because that distinction is useless, as it’s the default approach anyway.

In fact, the term itself has existed since like the 90s, and has just been adopted for use with smartphones.

Being right is my favorite pastime >:-)

But the GIF I reacted with is from Castle, and my interpretation is that that’s your favorite 🤔

P.S. Leave it to me to get unnecessarily pedantic over anything trivial.

Kinda sus that only one is from Castle and the rest are from Firefly.

Well, one thing is for sure, it’s not from Castle.

Firefly (2002). Although it might be from the film Serenity (2005).

Good thing I’m not in US.

I lie* down.

Not if it’s an inline svg, or a base64 embedded png.

Blue whales are so fucked…

Now he has made 4 dad jokes.

I understand that you mean I’m being unnecessarily pedantic, but I feel like in this particular case “everybody” actually has to mean everybody, or else the whole point is moot. There’s very little value in saying “some people deserve love” or even “most people deserve love”.

But once you add any exceptions, it’s no longer “everyone”, excluding a good chunk of the population and, for example, the guy in the meme might be from your exception list.

But in the same comment you said “everyone deserves to be loved” and “[everyone should] avoid toxic people”. That doesn’t follow.

I didn’t say I’m not online, but I’m not “terminally online”. Also, IMO “most people” are more online than me, they just don’t read/watch informative stuff.
