“Penduline”? As in… hanging tit?

They also make it unreasonably difficult to move a wiki to another platform, even if the wiki’s owners and the community want it.

VS’s built-in .NET debugger is top tier, though. Especially the ability to edit code while it is running.

It’s not meant to. It’s just an assessment.

To be fair, the average consumer is a lazy, complacent, unaware fucking dumbass. Just the way corporations like them.

Time-based one-time passwords. It’s been used for years for multi-factor authentication.

Not as much as you might think. Space launch rockets don’t carry a lot of extra fuel beyond what’s absolutely needed. Even propulsively landed rockets are almost empty.

If you want to be outraged, look at how much carbon dioxide is produced during ascent.

X11. It will outlive humankind.

I had to do a lot of configuration work on Win10 computers lately. The MMC, Powershell, even Regedit are faster and more intuitive than Settings. It’s fucking ridiculous.

And the fact that Epic couldn’t cobble together a content delivery platform that supported preloading before BL3’s release.

And the fact that they used Steam essentially as an advertising platform until the TOS was changed.

F-droid exists as an alternative. Manually installing APK files is also an alternative. You can have a full and complete experience without ever touching Google Play or Google services.

This is why nobody likes stallmanites. You can nitpick as much as you want with that attitude and find something non-free somewhere in the ecosystem, but that does not mean that the entire project is now non-free. Again, you are arguing in bad faith against the first guaranteed freedom of free software.

Please explain why you think they’re endorsing it.

You can install and run non-free applications (like games or the nvidia driver) on Linux distributions. Does that make Linux non-free?

I would argue that restricting an OS to run exclusively FOSS code robs the user of the first guarantee of free software: “the freedom to use the program for any purpose”.

Youtube Music, with the obvious disadvantage of Google’s involvement.

That’s not the kind of diagonal I expected. I thought it would be something like this:

Let me guess – Java developer?

Yes, but only begrudgingly.

(edit) oh no, I’ve said something bad about the lesser evil, and the people who have made it their identity to violently cum all over the first thing that isn’t owned by Google are after me. I hope the pipe bomb hitman is at least polite.

Revelation is one of the most quoted judeo-christian texts, and I recently learned that it was written as a fanfic and it took the fandom a surprisingly long time to recognise it as part of the official lore.

Exhibit one: Aussie wanker yells at tech.
