the question is why isn't "made of literal poison" considered "broke" for something that carries drinking water?

You can enable them right now by setting sidebar.verticalTabs = true in about:config

Why can't humanity seem to learn that storing all of our knowledge and cultural artifacts in just one place with no backup is a BAD IDEA? Don't let the library of Alexandria burn again!

a = 1.05
c = 5.2
d = 7.9
r_1 = 1
r_2 = 0.08
h = -6.7
j = 2.5
k = 8
f(y) = cosh(0.5y) (hidden)
(f(t)cos(a) - t*sin(a) - d, f(t)sin(a) + t*cos(a)); -c <= t <= 2π
(-(f(t)cos(a) - t*sin(a) - d), f(t)sin(a) + t*cos(a)); -c <= t <= 2π
(x - h)^2 + (y - j)^2 = r_1^2
(x + h)^2 + (y - j)^2 = r_1^2
(x + h - r_1/k)^2 + (y - j + r_1/k)^2 <= r_2^2
(x - h + r_1/k)^2 + (y - j + r_1/k)^2 <= r_2^2

At least you actually got Xbox Accessories to recognize your controller. I can't even get it to show up even though it's clearly connected and recognized as an xbox controller in device manager. Granted, passing the usb port through to a windows vm in order to do this probably isn't ideal, but I can't install it on my work computer and I'd really rather not have spyware os installed bare metal on any of my personal machines that I actually daily drive. Even when I decided fuck it I'll throw it on an old thinkpad, it just refuses to boot the win10/11 installer.

When troubleshooting, it's nice to be able to ask copilot about the issue in human language and have it actually understand my question (unlike a search engine) and pull from and reference relevant documentation in its answers. Going back and forth with it has saved me several hours of searching for something that I had never even heard of a couple of times.

It's also great for rewriting things in a specific tone. I can give it a bland/terse/matter-of-fact paragraph and get back a more fun or professional or friendly version that would feel ridiculously cringe if I attempted to write it myself, but the AI makes it work somehow.
