There is no sense of pride. Every text/code editor has key combinations that many users will learn eventually. Vim has easier key bindings.

‘Don’t reinvent the wheel’. If the earliest (re-)invention of the wheel, known to us, was flawless, it wouldn’t have been reinvented so many times. There will always be new obstacles, new scenarios and new expectations. I get it. It’s intended as a reminder to look up existing solutions for a problem before starting entirely from scratch. But, especially in software development, where this phrase is often used, this reminder is rarely necessary…

Tech content creators a few years later: Apple was ahead of everyone else!

What is Niki Lauda’s mother’s name?

She, as an obese person herself, proposed that “obese” is equivalent to the n-word. She didn’t censor her word the same way a black person doesn’t have to censor the n-word. That’s not a contradiction. It would be, if she wasn’t obese.

Not that I care about the actual point, just wanted to talk about the logic. My bad, if my assumption that she is obese, is wrong.

Definitely. But if this specific feature, that isn’t even primarily intended as an accessibility feature, has apparently not been available before in this form, does it make sense to call out Spotify for making that feature available “only” limited on the free version?

But yes, I’m aware of the community I’m on right now :D

So how did deaf people enjoy music for free before Spotify?

#1 If someone has the macho habbit of not feeling in need of documentation, they need to unlearn it.

I never dual-booted and I noticed I escaped a few traps. At best I’d base the decision on some research whether or not there is a way to run your irreplaceably essential software.

Thanks for the suggestions! Some have been already on my reading list, because they went into that direction and others I’ve added. I’m not sure, if my wording was understood 100% and if these books are what I’m looking for, but I guess the acknowledgement of the recursion would be a surprise element anyway. Thanks again!

I use mainly fish and occasionally nushell.

If the workflow at a workplace requires a consistent experience across all PCs…why doesn’t that workplace enforce that consistency?

I understand your frustrations, but corporate or organizational needs should not technically limit the personal needs of using a personal computer.

(And when people, used to a strict environment, are overwhelmed by the amount of freedom in their new environment, I think it’s better to guide them through the options instead of just taking away everyone’s freedom)

I much prefer short unskippable ads over conditionally skippable ads without a length max.

When my mom used her laptop, she was using arch btw! It was only for browsing though. Firefox was auto launched and she didn’t have to learn anything. It obviously wouldn’t have been a good choice, if I wasn’t able to do the updates.

Very happy with my Arch setup since 3-4 years I believe. But my laptop that I use and update too irregularly to justify having Arch on it, probably needs an alternative :D

There are cases where this applies, when a significant issue is censored across all media and you can only reach the rest of the people with greater power to resist the oppressors.

In most cases, it doesn’t. We have somehow normalized the assumption that people will listen more to protests. But do you really? Don’t reduce it to issues you already pay attention to. Think from the perspective of the uninformed target people. Think of political ideas you don’t tolerate. Will you listen more to them, if they block your way, ruin your day and may even harm your life instead of having a conversation with you?
