Don't let it fall
Seriously, anytime people make complaints like these about windows, it just tells me they are either
- Tweaking their system in ways far beyond what the OS is designed for (which is fine, but then don't blame Microsoft when updates break your system)
- Doesn't know how to use a computer
- Knows how to use a computer but is willfully ignorant so they can rant at MS and get clicks
- Incredibly unlucky and not representative of the general population
Only 4% of employees though. Why such a specialized company has thousands of employees is beyond me
My cats were born an outdoor cat and I'd rather they touched some grass and lived an actual life rather than be stuck inside all day even if they die earlier. I'm sure they would too.
Wildlife argument is valid though. They kill some good (rats, mice), but I can't justify them killing birds and lizards.
If you want someone learn something like driving well, you teach it to them when they're developing, not after.
And for the love of all that is holy, please do not give even more political power to old people
Yeah seriously, every time someone makes a generalization online "that subreddit is all 12 year olds anyway", "r/teenagers is mainly grown me", it really bothers me because no, you're just overconfident in estimating people's ages from text
Does it though? This is a very compressable image. It's around 30kb on my system, and that's with the extra text on top
It's fine for nonfiction, but I don't see much point for contemporary fiction books. If it's not on your level, just something easier
Well it can't really be a native gui and be cross platform.

Introducing GPT-4o
We’re announcing GPT-4o, our new flagship model that can reason across audio, vision, and text in real time.
CBT as a kink may be an evolutionary adaptation to protect men's most vulnerable (and evolutionarily useful) body part.
I have no idea why it's out there, but I suppose abusing it a bit may help toughen it up enough to ensure you can still have children when an accident happens.
Why people don't talk about Google Maps' privacy issues
Title is editorialized because the original is, frankly, clickbait garbage
Doesn't the need for a permit fundamentally contradict the US's ideals of free speech?
I went to some palestine protests a while back, and was talking to my brother about the organizing, when revealed something I found pretty shocking, we (the protesters) had acquired a permit to hold the protest. Apparently this is standard policy across the US.
More recently, my University is also having protests, and in their policy, they also require explicit approval for what they call "expressive activity". I'm pretty sure not having a permit has been used as an excuse to arrest students in some other campuses.
My question is as the title, doesn't this fundamentally contradict the US's ideals of free speech? What kind of right needs an extra permit to exercise it?
When I was talking to my brother, he also expressed a couple more points:
- The city will pretty much grant all permits, so it's more of a polite agreement in most cases
- If we can get a permit (which we did) why shouldn't we?
I'm assuming this is because of legal reasons, they pretty much have to grant all permits.
Except I think this makes it all worse. If the government grants almost all permits, then the few rare times it doesn't:
- The protest is instantly de-legitimized due to not having a permit
- There's little legal precedent for the protesters to challenge this
And then of course there's the usual slippery slope argument. You're giving the government a tool they could expand later to oppress you further. Maybe they start with the groups most people don't like and go up from there.
