You seem very intent on convincing multiple people we are more inconvenienced than we feel.
I think you are missing the feeling of smug superiority that comes from defeating the feeble multi-million dollar attempts to punish us...with 5 mouse clicks. So on the surface level it might be an inconvenience, but you step into the actual activity and boom, we're telling these dumbasses to fuck off. And that's fun.
Onedrive is easy to completely disable with group policy or registry tokens.
Yep
It's like when YouTube finds a way to show you an ad, and then you go to ublock and update filters and boom fixed.
Oh no Italy is requiring something unenforceable, hopefully nobody from other countries ignores this and provides VPN access unhindered.
But did you read the exchange this conversation is about? It sounds like you're operating on month-old headlines.
Why? Are you concerned that the date/time widget author is going to kill themselves? Or do you just not like the concept and don't think people should talk about it? Something else?
One of those options is unlikely and the other is just a taboo.
Don't threaten me with a good time
You really don't seem ok.
Every generation is peddled two insane concepts:
When they are young, they are told that they have a weird bizarre vernacular which sounds stupid to everyone else.
Then when they are old, they are told young people have a weird bizarre vernacular which sounds stupid to everyone else.
Then you die.
You criticized people for "not lifting a finger" and get mad when someone asks which finger you personally lifted? You are only allowed to criticize people for living their life if you are not a hypocrite. It sounds like of the items you listed I'd describe 60% as barely lifting a finger (phone canvas, minimal value; "vocal" online, zero value) and 40% as definitely lifting a finger (volunteering at unspecified org) which makes you not a hypocrite by my personal math.
I personally have no intention at all of answering your question because I didn't make any statements as generally attacking as your own to start with, and feel no need to justify asking you to show your stripes.
I am not sure where guns came into play. However, I don't think you should be owning guns: you don't seem 100% stable given the disproportionate response, and I would worry that disproportionate response would come out while driving or other stressful activities.
But I got the opportunity to make a dumb joke about math that you seemingly got mildly butthurt about, so really it all works out.
I enjoy the argument because it's a taboo, so nobody has a good argument. Nobody thinks it's a real command. Nobody thinks for a moment Linus even wants that person dead. It's Just Not How We Do Things here in Polite Society. We say "fuck you, c-loving geriatric" but "I can't wait to see you in a grave, old man" is considered different even though the literal words are irrelevant. The speaker likely has no real interest in fucking the other coder, nor seeing them in a grave.
This amusingly puts it in precisely the same category as like, grandma being upset that their gkid won't wear a bra or shave their pits.
