Actually there's one part of Windows that doesn't suck – font rendering. Even with fonts copied straight out of C:\Windows\Fonts, no matter how many config files I edited, I couldn't recreate Microsoft's ClearType.

~25% of American adults are functionally illiterate

That ~25% of American adults is too dumb to deserve to vote. You should be able to show some kind of basic intelligence and common sense in order to have a say in how a country should be run – it should be based on merit. I even have a name for that: meritocracy!

I consider them unnecessary layers of abstraction. Why do I need to fiddle with Docker Compose to install Immich, Vaultwarden etc.? Wouldn't it be simpler if I could just run sudo apt install immich vaultwarden, just like I can do sudo apt install qbittorrent-nox today? I don't think there's anything that prohibits them from running on the same bare metal, actually I think they'd both run as well as in Docker (if not better because of lack of overhead)!

There probably were some ads in the past that might've (probably unintentionally) targeted people on the spectrum. The IBM Selectric ad from the 60's instead of bullshitting about changing your lifestyle (like today's car ads do) focuses on the product's technological prowess.

Haven't noticed that. It's dead obvious that desktop PCs aren't mobile at all, and mobility is what makes laptops laptops.

I couldn't find the discussion on both talk pages (for personal article and the killing article)

I'm upgrading to Debian 13 instead, since 13 is bigger number than 11 so obviously it's better

Or Snapchat, or Instagram, doesn't matter. Remember memes like "Microsoft Office will now have Stories"?

multi-modal: and by everywhere we mean FUCKING EVERYWHERE

So, there's non-zero chance that they'll resurrect Windows Phone and Cortana?
