Windows still does that to this day. For some random reason, it will often create the EFI boot partition in a different drive than the one you're installing Windows to.

I'd love one running an ARM build of Fedora or something

Of course it is, because the point isn't whether or not they could deny doing the bare minimum - they can't.

The point is companies like LTT use a "extended warranty!", "lifetime warranty!", "never have a headache with our products in your life!" as part of their marketing, so they make these claims to change how the customer will evaluate their purchase... yet they try to get away with having undefined terms, because this way, they can actually deny the promised lifetime warranty for whatever random bullshit they come up with.

Both situations are protected in Brazilian law. Certainly the bare minimum doesn't have to be written, the law does so for you already, but any claims of further protections need to be written and can't be changed after the fact.

with Democrats on the left

Do keep in mind the most left leaning democrat you can think of would be a center-right candidate in my country. It's unfortunate that indeed you can only work with what you got, but don't be surprised when others cringe at the thought of calling your democratic party leftist.

The point is that you don’t know the first thing about American politics,

You couldn't even comprehend the point being made, misinterpreting it so fundamentally I genuinely - non-ironically - believe you struggled reading the words being written.

and are wholly unqualified to make any comments about it.

And yet, what I wrote is an aspect of democratic structures so fundamentally basic it wouldn't even matter if the US was the target of the comment. Funny how that is.

Let me hijack your comment mentioning Krita with another KDE app: Okular!

I simply can't believe a PDF app can be this performant, this fully featured, and entirely free. It even works on Windows, if you're trapped in that nightmare.

Adobe Acrobat Reader, from the people who created the PDF format, is unbelievably slow, it takes a thousand steps through an ugly UI to do anything useful, and any feature you actually care about is locked behind payment. Okular, a free tool, will load PDFs instantly, render previews flawlessly, let you edit, sign, merge, add text, select text, whatever you wish.

And KDE creates this app and a thousand others for less money than Mozilla wasted on some random bs last year. Long live KDE.

If you honestly think a military junta would be more representative of the American people than Trump, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Good thing I never made such claim and absolutely nothing on my comment reaches that conclusion, then.

Also our president is not elected via majority (or plurality) vote.

The details about your horrendous electoral system are irrelevant to the point, which by now is very clear you didn't understand.

You're not doing much to fight the stereotype of americans lacking basic reading comprehension though.

Notice how I said brazilian law, yet you're pretending the logic in your country would apply.

A company could write any warranty terms they wanted - hell, they could write a clause claiming "I hate laws and I'm willingly subjecting myself to the terms of this manufacturer, no takesies-backsies" and guess what, I'd still be protected by the lawful warranty process.

A company can set their own terms for additional warranties they might want to offer as part of their marketing, with some restrictions still. But for the legal minimum? No warranty terms in the world could violate them.

What I understand about the “intention of the text” is that:

That's probably the intention, but because it was written by somebody with zero academic biological experience that is also trying to cosplay as a professional writing a rigorous definition, it fails to do so.

XY: male. XX: female.

Would you like to hear a crazy secret? We biologists don't use the words "gender" and "sex" separately because we feel like it, there is a major difference between the too. Want to hear something even crazier? We don't use "XY = male!" as our definition either.

People who’s body or mind don’t match with their genes

Huh... where else do you think their traits come from? Their soul? Their zodiac sign? Your phenotype is nothing but your genes + regulated expression from the environment.

then be a male or a female with one or a combination of hormonal, developmental, or psychological issues

Are blond people just a male or female with a developmental issue in their hair's pigmentation? Or for this specific category of human diversity you're okay with calling them what they are rather than trying to define what wild type genomic expression is the "correct"? I mean, a person with XY chromosomes but a mutated SRY gene would develop entirely as a female, your worldview seems to imply that's "hormonal and developmental issues!" but then I'd love to hear your views on race - or in fact, I would much rather not hear them, if they follow the same logic as your initial proposition.

While we are here, how about the XY individuals with a working SRY gene that physically develop as male, but have certain neural activation patterns only found in women and that swear they were born in the wrong body from a very young age? Why exactly are we going to discard the biological evidence to their subjective perception, just because it makes you uncomfortable? Because if that's the case, maybe your subjectivity makes me uncomfortable... should we start listing and denying aspects of your physiology too?

Every warranty is a “trust me bro” warranty

Try that shit here in Brazil and your company is paying some fines you could not have dreamed of. And guess what, the customer would get their warranty regardless of your desire.

a huge emphasis on giving the people the power to write their own collective destiny.

A functional democracy is not a dictatorship of the majority, and people from the US love making this mistake. It is true that the president gets elected by a majority vote... but this person now represents everyone, including the minority that opposes them. They do not have the right to sink the ship and kill everyone because the majority thinks that's a good idea.

It is natural that their government will make decisions aligned with their voters (in theory) but they shouldn't be allowed to actively undermine the rights of everyone else.

No matter how inflated your perception of your "flawless" constitution and democracy is, this is something many countries understand pretty well and yours struggles with.
