Why even type this out?

Do you just like arguing stupid points for fun even when you know yourself that you are wrong?

Have you never seen an automotive touchscreen before?

Even within one model/brand there are a ton of panes, and layouts. And even when you choose one layout, which apps are open changes the location and size of the buttons. Now add into that multiple brands, models, layout, and years… And your comment gets more worthless at every step.

Beyond that. The screen doesn’t use haptic feedback to tell you where your fingers are so that the parts of your brain that evolved to handle that kind of context can use it without your fucking eyes. ‘Oh I touched the round thing, I know there are 4 rectangles next to this’ is a built-in feedback loop that a touchscreen does not provide at this time.

Do you have problems with object permanence in everyday life? or just in your car?

News report - Date unknown

In the early days of the war the Russian regime made regular threats to use nuclear weaponry, but most experts and lay-people believed that even that brutally sadistic despot would not go the extreme of destroying the earth to achieve his goals.

By 2024 Russia was doing small-scale ecocide in hopes of lending credence to their threats. Looking back, the poisoning of an entire riparian ecosystem connected to the Desna River in what was Ukraine should have been a clear signal of what was to come. But nobody listened and the nuclear weapons flew.

I am not making a joke here. This is where my brain naturally went when reading this. Let’s just hope my invasive thoughts are wrong.

[Edit: I am also not saying to appease this fucking psycho either. This is just a snippet of thought that I felt the urge to share.]

It’s nice to be able to rely on having dog shit stupid takes from the same username all the time. Consistency is key. Keep it up.

sharing their faith respectfully

How can you respectfully tell someone that they will burn for all eternity for not following the same book you do?

Has strawberry gotten any easier to theme? I tried a few years back and just couldn’t handle the aesthetics, and theming it seemed to only do some parts properly.

City of Heroes has been golden by comparison.

-homecoming gang represent.

People said the exact same thing about reddit being only good for technology enthusiasts and porn in the early days.

In my experience that is just how it goes on the internet. Nerds, furries, and porn collectors, are the early adopters for most places. The normies follow along years later.

I don’t disagree on the whole. But I think that putting ‘trust’ in any bot would be silly. However, knowing how right-skewed the bot is and using its blurb as a single data point with that in mind, is better (to me) than just not having it at all.

popos tiling works this way as well.

Your promise is worthless.

Why did you just type a bunch of asterisks in the middle of a sentence?

Despite having possibly one of the least popular cuisines in all of the earth

Are you fucking high? Not that there is anything wrong with being high, but this take is psychedelic levels of weird.

In which way am I complaining? I am explaining why calling a valid solution a bandaid might be construed as belittling their very real knowledge of this process. And how that is a regular pattern in a lot technical fields.

And don’t give me this shit about ‘I’m not the person you were talking to’ This is an open forum not a direct/private message.

You can’t expect people who are knowledgeable about this stuff to just forever accept that someone asks for advice, gets told the solution, and then ignores/belittles the person with knowledge.

This is our daily life experience. We get hired to be experts, and get told by non-experts that our solutions are not tenable every single day. Only for that solution to eventually be accepted when the user in question figures out their idea was not useful and the expert was correct.

We have to put up with it at work, we are not obliged to accept it here.

A leftist who can’t see how the tea party emboldened and created the proto-maga movement just in time for Trump to take it over.

I will once again call bullshit.

You are cute. How far into the shit-filled rabbithole do I have to go into libertarianism before I find your specific flavour of bullshit? Somewhere between rand paul and ayn rand? Or do we go deeper?

Libertarians man. What a fucking joke.

ideas that are objectively similar to maga bullshit.

I should mention that we also really enjoyed the back streets and small neighbourhoods. They made up for a lot of the disappointment.

I wanted to visit Paris my whole life. Pere Lachaise cemetery, the Eiffel tower, the museums, the food.

When I got there the cemetery was filled with lying grifters trying to sell bullshit stories about the people interred there. The tower was full of pick pockets and scumbags ripping off tourists for thread bracelets. The museums were filled with influencers blocking access to a lot of the displays with their stupid duck lips and tag-along ‘photographers’ with their iphones .

The only thing that lived up to the dream was the food. Oh my the food…

Oh… And the experience of seeing a woman shitting in the seine in broad daylight. That was kind of exciting too…
