While I respect the intent, I do think that you probably need to consider the reasoning as well. Putting black and white morality over actions isn't necessarily correct either.

Poking fun at someone who is objectively evil over their appearance is "something" that an average person can do that might actually affect the person in question. It might not do anything, but it's sure as hell more appropriate and effective than trying to point out the issue with their moral stance. You can't always make a difference through peaceful or indirect means.

I think it's important to point out that body shaming someone who isn't a bad person is wrong, but it is also important to point out that for most people our words are our only recourse. You can insult a terrible person for one thing, while ignoring or praising the same trait in someone who is good.

Maybe it should be though

Well my dreams last night were about a group of people that were having a competition in a barber shop to see who could cut out holes from the skin on the top of their heads without looking at how deep the incisions were and without any anesthetic...

So honestly - not looking at my phone is really the most reasonable part of the majority of my dreams.

Given that most of the temperature differential is due to heat transfer, it's really almost completely irrelevant. A refrigerator doesn't generate cold. It moves heat out and insulates. The only actual "gain" would be from the residual heat generated by the inefficiency of the electrical components. You'd probably negate any benefits just by opening the door to the house to get the ice.

Their solution to a problem is to pretend like it doesn't exist simply because it will go away in the future? It's a reason, but it isn't a good one.

Gnome does some questionable things, and some are just personal preference, but there is at least one thing that they do that makes zero sense regardless of how you use your system...

The AppIndicator extension SHOULD be default. There is no reason for it to be an extension other than pure stubbornness. There are applications that literally require it in order to function at all.

"Creativity" was actually just a poor translation. What they meant to say was "enhanced legal department". Easy mistake.

It's Teams and/or the Office 365 interface. Because everyone just loved teams 😐

The whole point of doing a separate partition for your home directory is to do just that... The fuck is this even supposed to mean.

Eh, Vesktop already works and is actually open source. My issue has always been the fact that discord was built on an old version of electron that didn't support Wayland screen share at all. I didn't see any mention in this article if that was ever rectified, but with the issue already resolved by a third party, why even bother now.

It was always so ridiculous that you could just open the website and it worked perfectly fine, but the official application didn't work.

"The company does not provide pricing information for the Compact3588S SBC and asks customers to request a quotation."

So it's only a pi5 competitor if you're a company willing to buy in bulk... Nobody is going to hold prices of a sub-$100 product hostage if it were ever intended to go to individuals or hobbyists.
