Actually I think I get what you’re saying now and I think you have a point. I am not sure the two can be directly compared that way, though. There are different reasons for why people think each is bad once they hear the name and I don’t think the meme is actually saying that this is an argument for or against anything. Just a funny observation.

This is all just semantics and how the word ‘opposite’ can be applied in different ways. I wouldn’t spend too much time on this.

I went full steam ahead down the keyboard nerd rabbit hole for a little while and ended up with a split matrix board that I can fully remap to how I like so I never have to worry about windows and I can make a button toggle to qwerty for games. Obviously that’s a bit more than what most people need or are willing to do, but I love it, I actually enjoy using a keyboard now.

I changed away from qwerty and now my wrist pain is gone. I get this is meant to be funny but for real, don’t be afraid to rethink old behaviors. It didn’t take that long and the benefits are great (for me).✌️

Yeah, I did something for work where I had to study up about it and instead of being angry it’s just kind of a fun fact. I don’t actually mind what people say, I think everyone understands what you mean regardless.

Nah, but if you count the distance between eyebrows and hairline in fingers - it’s about two fingers as opposed to the usual four.

Not sure regards to photoshopping but it’s not unreasonably low. I have a pal with a much lower hairline than this.

I am the guy in the middle, except I’m telling people it’s octopuses.

TIL, thanks for the informative comment!

This is where I’m trying to get to. Any new software I try to make sure is foss and linux where possible. It’s just a bit of a pain with music because there’s a lot of tools I’ve bought over the years and would like to continue using.

Yes, I’ve been trying hard to squeeze some linux into my life, currently trying to turn an old laptop into a little music machine for jamming with on me midi keyboard. I’ve run across quite a few issues just trying to get specific software working. I did cave at one point and try to use windows 10 but their installation media tool would fail every time I tried and the hardware is too old for windows 11 lol. It also triggered my gag reflex just thinking of all the ads it would feed me and all the bullshit I’d have to disable to make it respect my privacy. A number of different distros just worked flawlessly, though, and if all I needed to do was simple computer things and web I’d be laughing.

Yeah, there’s still some other little things, but it’s surprising just how good the out of the box experience is, especially considering how little support the project has had from hardware and software vendors.

Linux is honestly great, literally the only things holding it back is programs supporting it. I’m painfully tied to a select few windows programs for work and hobbies, Wine tries its best but programs need to start supporting linux before proper adoption can kick off.

Yes, I agree. I’m trying to rid myself of as much as I can, but unfortunately it’s not always practical.

I actually don’t hate onedrive that much. I’ve used it for a while now and it’s one of the best ways to just share a folder with some people very easily. And they can even use the desktop app and you can all have a cloud synced folder, it’s really convenient for collaborating on projects. I know other things can do this, but few do it as seamlessly.

That said I’m trying pretty hard to ditch it because I hate how Microsoft are just making it the default behaviour without really making it apparent that all your documents just get uploaded to their servers. I hope proton drive gets the features I need soon,.

If anyone genuinely enjoys this you can check my comments for a very spicy way too long argument we’re both way too involved in. TRIGGER WARNING: I am a vegan and it is about that, but also not really?

Also no more vegan arguments for me tonight, let’s just keep the argument about that one guys mum.

Same here.

PS: Apparently a lot of Americans aren’t even familiar with the word fortnight.

It means two weeks if anyone hasn’t heard it before.

I just feel incredibly angry all of a sudden.

That’s not what I was trying to say. I was specifically referring to you talking about how animals treat each other.

I don’t want anyone to suffer which is why I have mixed feelings about this.

edit: actually go fuck yourself, I don’t care, you’ve continuously put words in my mouth and obviously don’t care about having a reasonable conversation.

I literally don’t even know what you’re trying to say, I haven’t cast any judgements or told anyone to do anything. Get off your soapbox.
