I remove that abomination every chance I get.

A fraudulent banker named Bankman-fried … ok well not perfect, but…

It makes sense from MS’s perspective. They started not liking Linux, and now have integrated it in their OS with WSL, thusly becoming a full clown for the great hypocrisy compared to their original dislike of Linux.

I mean, I’d definitely do it to SBF if his crap wasn’t cleaned out already. Though admittedly I’d largely keep going just because this world DESPERATELY needs fewer SBF types in it…

I’ve had both happen a lot. Only the basic stuff gets a correct answer, because nuance is difficult even for the tech savvy.

No, it is always the same question.

… from a person sitting in a very different situation with a slightly different problem.

Yea but we expect them to also know “R” isn’t for “Really fast”.

You need to recognize what defending ignorance is.

Jesus, the self-entitlement of users these days… When saying you might have to RTFM is equivalent to, “that feature never worked or never existed and you should feel bad for wanting it”.

Nobody is gatekeeping anything by merely pointing out that you will very likely be digging through docs to troubleshoot Linux.

That’s just stating a fact. Why does stating a fact offend you so much?

No, that is very much NOT unique to electric cars.

You can only be getting voted down by the illiterate, because you are correct.

I mean, what’s that one complaint about electric cars?

All parsers ignore a shitload of whitespace already. Just compare unformatted code, COMPLETELY unformatted code, code without character returns, and it’ll become obvious how any given language is interpreted around whitespace.

Also fun to see just how infrequent a semicolon is ‘actually’ needed to tell when the end of a statement is here.

You yourself said it was about feeling seen.

Do you think that only comes in one flavor?

I’m not knocking the sentiment you describe. I’m knocking the use of projective and tokenizing bullshittery.

I’m sorry you’re offended, but these jokes specifically are doing culture and acceptance no favors.

You can feel accepted without reducing yourself to a token.

And lo, the Apocrypha were born, for they spoke the truth that no man dare admitt, lest they be marked an apostate.

You are utterly and completely failing to understand that the joke itself is culturally bereft of meaning.

Sad. No gay person ever felt more accepted by society from a joke that was implying gayness on a different minority. If anything, that tokenized gayness for society.

Why do you want to be a token?

Do… do you think a boomer would write out “yawn” and sorta use doge speak in a message about what used to be viewed as progressive!? Or are you a literal child that doesn’t even remember the 2000’s? Either way, fucking pathetic ability to clock someone.

I think you’re right about that being the origins of the joke, but the joke is distinctly trying to infer the reverse. Funny in context, but out of context, it’s just an obnoxious over-association leaking out of a community.

It’s as stupid and culturally braindead as the old 2000s jokes where the entire punchline is the gay guy is flamboyant. haha gay rainbows! Ver funny!

yawn

Probably both.
