Lol, that was funny! I know I’m being pedantic. I usually make those observations just to scratch an itch. The itch was a bit stronger than usual with this one because it’s a journalistic video. That’s all.

The video has a typo. It uses “it’s” instead of “its”.

Shucks.

Or even trim it.

P-Peertube?

Ha, cool! It’s been a while since I saw that movie.

Man, 1998?! Time flies.

What’s this in reference to?

Hey thanks for explaining!

What did you learn?

Correct. I just want to remain in Linux. Plus the Windows OS will be unmaintained, so I will never connect it to the internet. So I’d be without Internet meanwhile I’m in the other partition. A VM solves that.

I don’t know, I still haven’t done this yet!

But my needs might be different from yours. In my case, my music production skills just require an old version of FL Studio. I’m sure it will run fine in a VM.

Sure, but the question still remains…

In my case, I will NEVER upgrade to Windows 11. I’d rather use another OS.

I miss Windows 7.

But why would you upgrade if forced? You know you will have a subpar experience. Is it because of software you use that only runs on Windows?

The software I need on Windows will live on an isolated instance of Windows 10 in a VM on Linux when the time comes that MS stops releasing security updates for 10.

Plus the web is not the whole internet.

You could stick to Gopher.

Or use other search engines. There are hundreds. Hundreds.

Maybe not as useful as the dominant ones, though.

Yeah, I know that. But why get mad at that, though? Like, if I am in a restaurant that said “For Android users only” and I see an iPhone user being served, why the fuck would I care? I’d be puzzled and intrigued. Not enraged.

‘a need for better education and communication within the EV community’

That Rivian driver is being way too nice about the situation.

Imagine someone calling the police on you because you bought pepsi instead of coke. It’s not about education and communication. It’s about a fucking asshole doing asshole shit. You can’t reason with people like that. You tell them to fuck off.

Edit: hm, he was taking two spots. Not exactly his fault, but I can understand 0.00001% more the Tesla driver. Still an asshole, though.

Edit 2: If I was in a charging station that said “For Ford vehicles only” and I saw a BMW coming in and using it, I’d be more like “How is that possible? Huh. Interesting!” Then I’d mind my fucking business.

Edit 2: Well, at least I know I’m right. Downvote away.

Sorry, I’m all for net neutrality, but behavior based on browser usage, while dickish, has nothing to do with it.

Edit: it seems like I’m being schooled. Got any sources to back up your downvotes?

Edit 3: nope. I’m not being schooled. The downvoters should either get better informed or stop downvoting with their emotions.

Kinda stupid that they say it’s a terms violation. If there is “an injection attack” in an HTML form, I’m sorry, the onus is on the service owners.

Did you order it on Amazon?
