Sound on sound was always well worth a read. That said, I haven't read it in about 20 years and don't know if it's even still going.
Your assessment of probability is speculation and I didn't suggest you meant "always".
That's not necessarily true, I dual boot and I've been using Linux for my main OS for about 15 years now. I rarely use mine but it is useful/needed occasionally.

You mention gender role stereotypes but then fall prey to one when you clearly think you should be served first because of your gender.

Just finished Embassytown by China Mieville. Haven't read anything for ages so took the opportunity to get back into it on a lazy holiday. Highly recommend this book, or any by China, if you enjoy dense sci-fi.
