Please. It is a half eaten crayon.

At this rate he will never be able to vote.

By the end I completely forgot he was talking about San Francisco, and I think that is the point.

You aren't wrong that telecom companies are trashy, but being a dick to a support agent isn't the right way to go. Support staff are more willing to help and work with you if you aren't yelling at them right out the gate and blaming them for something they have no control over.

I don't understand how it is so hard for people to clean up after themselves. Our parks and trails in the US are filthy. There is trash on the ground and garbage cans 10 feet away.

It is really sad that they had to erect this barrier, but it is laughable that people can't respect nature when the entire purpose of their visit is to admire it.

Their decision to profit off the project was their downfall.

As others have said, the entire lemmy.ml instance skates on thin ice. While the people on it are generally ok the admins have a clear agenda and are not afraid to suppress ideas and discussions that do not adhere to their ideology. I always triple check any news or political posts that come from that instance.

Nobody wants to invest 2 months paycheck into hardware that the developer is going to drop support for in 6 months.

Hardware is too expensive for the average Joe to buy and those of us who can afford it are tired of being burned by companies that provide subpar service then drop support for the thing. Cool, bleeding edge tech means little if there is little use for it or if nobody can afford it.

January hasn't ended yet and we are at 60% of the total layoffs of last year.

Thankfully this scenario is covered by Steam's refund policy. If Capcom wants to fuck around, let them find out.

Not a hot take at all. Asking someone to go from a GUI heavy operating system to a command line heavy one and be just as productive is lunacy. Like all major changes it is important to ween off the old thing.

My biggest hurdle with the switch has been permission related issues, and you can't deal with those cleanly with a UI, and every help thread under the sun throws out a bunch of command line commands giving a solution without explaining why those changes are needed. It may seem like Unix 101 to experienced Linux users, but it is really cryptic to newcomers coming from operating systems that are...cough more lenient with their permissions.

There is also a mentality that UIs are much more idiot proof than command line. UIs are written by people who actually know the OS so we can't accidentally delete our home folder because of a typo. It is a very legitimate concern.
