Heh, now the parralel in my mind is developpers that put in microtransactions or force a subsribtion model with no option to buy.

By that logic, do you think anybody that works at walmart/amazon/any-company-that-has-shady-suppliers can't be good?

Rough translation, but here it was "Ordinary Nintendo", as opposed to the Super Nintendo

I do not.

But a quick search online says that Stephen Hawking had an IQ of 160.

This feels a lot like pretty people saying that looks don't matter all of a sudden.

I wonder if there's a relation with people saying that what they have is not valuable.

I agree with the sentiment of your post, but I think the examples are a bit too far fetched:

I'd wager most people use a computer/phone on a daily basis, which is why having a basic understanding of it seems like knowledge we should all have.

Inversely, most people don't need even have a turbo in their car and many don't even have a car, so any knowledge relating to that is probably useless for them.

That being said, even if someone is less knowledgeable in a field, respect should always be the baseline, as you illustrate, they're probably skilled in something else!

I'm saying that as an IT person that's aware that I'm making money mostly because people don't bother to learn all this, so in the end I don't mind that much.

Lab grown meat is more efficient, but some place are already outlawing it before it'seven available commercially... So I'm not too sure about the direction we're going.

Could you share the method you used to divide a single monitor from the OS perspective?

If you got the script or wiki page somewhere..

I'm curious

It's an anime, and nearly cheating but for me it was Mushoku Tensei Season 1

There was an intro song, but while it was playing there would be B Rolls of whatever part of the setting was pertinent for the episode.

It was awesome, but then they did a normal intro for Season 2, which struck me as a bad decision.

One thing I find annoying is that there's no way for me to let the company know that this behavior lost me as their customer forever unless they change their tune.

I'm fairly sure I'm the kind of person they'd market those products towards and it hurs them, but there's no wat that I'm aware of to let them know.

If there was a way, and a significant amount of people would do so, maybe the decision makers would understand it's stupid...

I think you are right about the lack of diversity.

My own take on it is that lemmy is currently populated by early adopters. There might be a relation between beign open to try new things and being left-leaning, I don't know.

But I do think that over time, if Lemmy survives it's early day phase, more people joining should bring more doverse point of views.
