Not execs, read the OP. The theory is GL got scared of fan reactions to jarjar so he didn't want to make jarjar that central.

Having the tools and knowledge to keep yourself safe does not make you radicalized. That's like saying learning how to swim or getting a boat means you were radicalized by water. Or learning first aid makes you a radicalized combat medic.

Getting a gun is a much less radical plan than changing countries....

I want an actual real time strategy game. All popular RTSs are actually just about tactics and micro. I mean every SC2 guide will tell you that up to a very high level of play, if you're just doing more you'll be more efficient and win regardless of strategy. Why can't you just set a standing order of "make unit x" or "make unit x while we have gas until we get to 50 of them"? That's strategy. Having to tab back to a building and manually queue a couple of units every several seconds is just creating busywork for players, but thats what's necessary and optimal for playing SC2 and most RTS games well

Why should this be at the editor level? There should be a linter that applies all these stylistic formatting changes to all files automatically. If the developer's own editing tools or personal workflow have a chance to introduce non-standard styles to the codebase, you have a deeper problem.

You just havent seen much true multimedia, what the web was originally optimized for. You've just seen designer barf and marketing's wet dreams, but not sites actually meant to convey information efficiency.

Text, videos, images, and interactive elements are all individually not that great. The magic is when you can have all of them on one page, each for the parts where they are the best option for part of a whole idea.

But that doesn't jive well with medium that just wants everything to be text, or YouTube/TikTok that wants everything to be a video, etc.

I listed two examples of things right in my post.

The problem is, in Linux once you know how things work, most things are pretty easy. In Windows, even when you know how things work, if you want to change your system at all you're fighting the OS the whole way.

For example, in Linux it's trivial to set up my notifications to be in the bottom middle, except when I'm coding to have them in the top right, with various hotkeys to manage them. Or to have custom window layouts. Or to do anything, every part of the stack is easy to change. On Windows you just get a blob and it assumes everybody wants it to work the same way.

Humans can be cheaper than robots if properly exploited!

That's not merch, that's the Veil of Veronica. Very significant catholic story/artifact. The story is that when she wiped the blood and sweat off of Jesus his face appeared on the cloth. You'll find depictions of this in most old catholic churches and many paintings

This is correct though. The first line didn't say "given name" or "first name"

The correct way to fill out that paper as asked would be "peter Parker" and "Parker"

Exactly, so the people in favor of keeping the fucked up system are part of the problem
