Damn noob ;-)

It means “I am not a lawyer”, usually at least ;-)

Half-Life 3

You could finally visit the only real Legoland in Billund of course!

You could also see it as you preventing someone else from learning from their own mistakes. Maybe reframing it like that could help with skipping :)

Linux Genuine Advantage

SystemD also contains things like a network manager, dns resolving, ntp time sync and more, which I agree should not be so tightly coupled to the core init system.

It’s in America so yes.

Agreed! He even has the best line of the entire saga.

“Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his power level?? … IT’S OVER 9000!!!”

Yeah I totally agree, I hate that they keep adding new stuff instead of focussing on their core business. It’s especially annoying as the Android Protonmail app and the regular web mail client are really bare bones and have several long standing issues. Honestly if I had set it up with my own domain instead of the @pm.me (which admittedly is a nice suffix) I probably wouldn’t be a paying customer anymore.

Exactly, it’s why I don’t buy Logitech anymore!

Strongly disagree, I think it’s very useful to accept your own addictive tendencies so you can stay mindful of the risks, but as with most of these things it’s probably personal. Use what works for you.

Sorry if I misunderstood your comment, it seemed like a metaphor for social media but perhaps I assumed too much. My bad!

You know you don’t have to doomscroll social media right? You can just, you know, not do social media.

Very optimistic of you to think they actually tested it :)

I don’t think it works that way… on paper it sure looks the way you said but I’m 99% sure there’s all sorts of gentlemen agreements and other back channel stuff going on there.

No worries, it appears that most of the world uses the word “scooter” differently than we do in the Netherlands :-) with your definition of scooter I agree that my statement was ridiculous haha.

Yeah it’s my bad as apparently most of the world uses the word differently :-) I’m a big fan of electric vehicles, both the noise and pollution are reduced which is great!

That’s why I said compared to their speed. I don’t know any brands or example models, all of them are obnoxiously loud and driven by simple minded fools imho. Cars make relatively little noise, and newborns and trees do not belong in this comparison in my opinion.

Edit: tried to find a picture, seems these are not universally called scooters even though they are where I live. I mean models like this: https://www.scooterforyou.nl/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/34_G7_99_KISBEESPORTLINE-1.jpg

Ugh yes, and ban scooters and motors as well, they make such a ridiculous amount of noise compared to their speed.
