Hell yeah 🤘🏻

I worked at a place where I could carry over something like 2 extra weeks I think?

Here, I gotchu:

The phrase "you stupid fuck" Implies the existence of irrational fucks.

It's not so much whether the word is spelled with a vowel, but whether it makes a vowel sound.

In English, the y sound is considered a consonant when at the beginning of a word but a vowel elsewhere.

Europe makes a similar y initial sound as, e.g., yurt, young, yellow, yell, youth, etc. so in those cases the words take the "a" article instead of "an".

A yurt, a youth, a yell, etc.

Likewise Euclidian, European, Uranus, ewe, union, user, universe, unit, usage, all take the "a" article instead of "an".

And in the reverse, words like hour and heir become "an hour" and "an heir" because the initial sound is a vowel even though the first letter is a consonant.

Yeah I'm incredibly impressed with Fedora. Rides the fine line of cutting edge, without tipping over, any time something matures enough to adopt, so it's still stable—which means I've found the typical Linux faffing about is optional if I want to do it, rather than mandatory, which isn't always the case for distros that adopt cutting edge sooner.

That said, distros that pioneer new stuff quickly can be fun in their own right, but right now I'm just happy to have that balance.

Another thing I've found is that it makes tinkering easier any time I want to try something new, since the whole distro tends to be on newer but still stable packages, so there's less breakage. That isn't always the case on Debian based distros which can sometimes be a little too conservative to make adopting newer things simple, or bleeding edge distros where things tend to break just by virtue of being bleeding edge.

It's quite literally the Goldilocks distro for me and my needs right now.

It's trivially easy on everything—except maybe Windows. I use them because I like the way they look.

Android: long press the dash

Linux: Compose Key + three dashes (you can set the Compose Key to whatever you want, I use the Right Alt key).

macOS: Opt + Shift + dash

I just use sick days for that. Sick doesn't exclusively mean physical health and they're not obligated to know why you're taking time off — although thankfully most of my employers especially ones with younger management understood that sick = mental health too and it wasn't a taboo.

Mmm, not sure I like this better. If the majority in your community are filled with religious crazies suddenly you're ruled by backwards ass religious laws from millenia ago. Laws and enforcement would be even more incoherent, not less. No matter who is enforcing the laws, we need ways to keep ALL people in power accountable regardless of how it's organized and I don't think that goes away in a more anarchist kind of world.

Fella, the stuff Gen Z struggles with is the light switch.

Nah sorry we're not taking the red states. They can be their own Christofascist hell elsewhere.

No hate, I'm just surprised. I've legitimately never not had a game work so far, and most people I know only seem to have issues on games with anti-cheat.

Doesn't mean I don't believe you though, I just might have horseshoes in my ass, such that I somehow have only played games that are largely compatible without issues.

I am curious what games had issues for you though.
