Oh yeah. I've started Marvel Midnight Suns, and 4 hours of cutscene later they show how you deploy on a mission: by walking on a rainbow bridge or something. I'm like: "brilliant, now that's a way to disguise loading with something I'm doing, even if it's just walking" , and then, at a random place of that bridge, an actual loading screen appears for a good minute. What's wrong with you.

Can't believe Nethack doesn't top the list.

If you think that's bad, just look up what happened to her husband.

Is says "on", not "as of", so it's fine.

This, but unironically.

WDYM, the system is still the bad-vs-worse with no path to citizen interests in sight.

consider engaging in the aforementioned tactics

I can't.

instead of yelling at people who have a plan

to fail again. But you're right, that's your country to blow.

Hate to rain on your parade, but it's not like they missed a Shift for a magical language-switch-while-pressed. Mistyping it that way is non-trivial because default language switching is non-trivial.

Syncthing, a peer to peer file synchronize that basically everyone needs, they just don't know it.

Your iDiOtIc CaSe is no substitution for a valid counteaargument. Neither of your parties represent the interest of the people. Get a third one.

NixCon Europe gets sponsor money from a military company. Taxpayers of the greatest democracy ever had a knee-jerk reaction, because not only they were having such a nice peaceful day before getting reminded that military exists, and they themselves are sponsoring it, while, clearly, in the enlightened world like ours military = bad, "every rifle made is money taken from good causes". Also, wars are something that only happens in history books anyway, not, say, present-day Europe, amirite? Tons of internal value dissonance, fediverse buzz and free PR later, said military company gets their money back.

NixCon NA gets sponsor money from the same company, because the value proposition of the previous PR stunt was so sky-high, it'd be negligence to not repeat it. Taxpayers of the greatest democracy ever are reminded once again they don't have a slightest say say in what they're funding, so they try their best to not get funded back with their own money and bury their heads back in the sand again. Tons of free PR later, said military company gets their money back.

Now the foundation publishes a sponsorship policy, the community debates whether it is or is not enough to prevent said military company from diverting funds from the stuff they find so revulsing and towards the stuff they are so excited about. This round of free PR is on the house.

What's gonna happen next, we all wonder.

Firefox ate my RAM joke is ridiculous. Nokia N900 has 256MB RAM. Fennec for Maemo had electrolysis (multiprocessing) turned on. In version 4. Years before the desktop Firefox. You really need to go old-school embedded for Firefox to eat your RAM.
