AFAIK it was due to the slightly weird jurisdiction that ships fall under due to moving between countries.

Hey guys, did you know that in terms of male human and female Pokemon companionship Vaporeon is the most huggable Pokemon?

...or was that Flareon?

The system can listen to conversations and play ads when there’s a moment of silence. Or play a video when you’re close to the shops.

Oh good, I was worried the slide into dystopia might be slowing down for a second there.

Man, China must be watching this shitshow, looking at Outer Manchuria and wondering what exactly Russia could do about it at this point if they decided to reverse the Treaty of Aigun...

Did not know the thing about purposefully adding rogue tabs to kconfig files to catch poorly written parsers. That's fucking hilarious and I'd love to have the kind of clout to get away with something like that rather than having to constantly work around other people's mistakes.

I mean, the actual source for this statistic is usually "The Overworked American: The Unexpected Decline of Leisure" by Juliet Schor who in turn got the number from an unpublished paper written by Gregory Clark in 1986. Clark did eventually publish a paper in 2018 where he increased his estimate to 250-300 days (which may still be less than some modern workers work).

I just write my config files directly to random unused blocks on /dev/sda, filesystems are overrated.
