Because even his idiotic voters wouldn’t intentionally drive up their power bill. Well, some might, but most wouldn’t. But if it’s harder for consumers to make that informed choice his friends in industry can flood the American market with inefficient crap and his voters will probably blame Biden or immigrants or Jewish space lasers for their increased power bill.

You might think that’s no excuse but I’m not fucking with anything running on mains electricity. Thanks, but I like living and not setting the house on fire.

Do you also turn off autocorrect? As for why I’m not proofreading my entries? I am. But typos happen. Try to put yourself into the shoes of the average office drone or consumer just using a PC as a tool. I’m pretty sure I’ve harped on this before, but most people aren’t experts or enthusiasts, they just want a working computer that’s as simple to use as possible. The benefits of a case sensitive-file system are far outweighed by how susceptible it is to user error.

I’ve used Linux, yes. And I’m not “crying” I just find it annoying. Good grief.

you should have not written them differently.

But you did.

Remember that 99% of the time that’s gonna be because of a typo for 99% users. They won’t have File.txt, FILE.TXT and FiLe.tXt, they’ll have ReportMay.docx and REportMay.docx or whatever.

And yeah, that includes me. I don’t want case-sensitivity for that reason alone. Thanks, but no thanks.

And penicillin. I’ll gladly take the microplastics and credit scores if that’s the price to pay.

They almost certainly expected it. That’s why they’ve tried to cosy up to him, to get exemptions for their businesses.

Ah, yes. The Uyghur genocide: famously free of genocide.

not that difficult to be better than slavery, genocide, war and colonialism

Apparently it is, because other than constant wars China does all of those things.

Two bad things can be true at the same time.

Israel is currently engaged in ethnic cleansings in Gaza and the West Bank.

True.

Many of Israel’s neighbours would “drive the Jews into the sea” if they ever got the chance.

Also true.

The answer to genocide is not inviting more genocide.

And yes, nukes are effective as a deterrent. Look at how reluctant the West is to support Ukraine against a genocidal invasion because of Russia’s repeated nuclear threats. There’s no way any country is going to give up its nuclear weapons after Ukraine showed just how little security guarantees from the great powers are actually worth.

The first one is a long s, the second is the “normal” s.

It’s a problem of reliability. If you need to be at work at 08:00 and your train is regularly late or getting cancelled, you can’t take the train to work.

Hair ties, hair clips, hair pins, those spiral thingies you twist in (no idea what they’re called in English) and hairspray to keep it from fluttering about. Lots of ways to keep your hair up and in shape, depends on what exactly you want to achieve.

That said, I don’t know anyone, like literally anyone, who thinks that keeping your hair up is more comfortable.

Two minutes (and you’re being very optimistic here, for someone who isn’t technically inclined it’s almost certainly going to be more) of required reading on a subject that’s just not even remotely interesting to 99% of people eliminates basically all non technical people. Because they just don’t care enough to devote that time. If that’s the user base you want, that works out, but I’d like people here who can hold a conversation about something other than Linux and Star Trek. It’s honestly kinda boring here.

/r/retrogaming’s definition doesn’t work anymore now that there are multiple generations that grew up with video games. Just because it doesn’t feel retro to the 40 year old who remembers playing the PS2 as a teenager doesn’t mean it’s not retro. The PS2 is absolutely a retro console, and the PS3 is very much getting there.

There’s zero indication that OP is ordering delivery often, so I’m not sure why you have jumped to that conclusion?

Besides, whether or not ordering delivery often depends on what you’re ordering and on your disposable income. McDonald’s is far from the only option, plenty of real restaurants offer delivery too these days. If you can afford it, you can probably eat a fairly healthy diet even if you never cook. Not for me, in no small part because I usually enjoy cooking, but I’m not gonna judge people who don’t. Doesn’t affect me, I’m not gonna go out of my way to be annoyed.

And sometimes you’re too tired for that or want something you can’t reasonably make at home. There’s nothing wrong with ordering food.

That’s because NTFS isn’t case-insensitive. If it was there’d be no two folders. Windows is a case-insensitive operating system running on a case-sensitive file system. It’s pretty clear Microsoft wanted case sensitivity and then realised how much legacy software that’d break.

Lions might not, but housecats do. Bears are also known to be very wasteful with the salmon they catch.

Mike Pence’s advocacy group, Advancing American Freedom (AAF), opposes Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination as Secretary of Health and Human Services, citing concerns about his inconsistent abortion stance.

Killing children after birth by spreading vaccine misinformation and conspiracy theories is fine, though.

Really? Because in my experience you have to wade through racist, homo- and transphobic, and misogynistic shit the second you foolishly open the discussions page on any game that features black or brown, LGBTQIA, and/or female characters.
