That went well then... kinda like the problem never really went away.

Charge it in the morning and it's dead when you go to use it. Good news is: your bag is nice and warm now. That's what you wanted, right? .... right?

The initial release was a bit rough but holy shit that OS was basically magic when it was dialed in. 100% my favorite.

Next to no resource usage. Reasonably secure (for its time - especially compared to other offerings) ... and all settings were right in reach.

No bullshit, no fluff. It played the os role perfectly. Run your shit and get the hell out of your way. I still believe they killed it off early to force people to switch. It was murdering the new os in performance benchmarks.

I control everyone's speed. I am god.

- Just about every truck owner who pulls the above mentioned shit.

Bonus points for lifted, extra big wheels, and whatever other shit country music suckered them into buying. Meanwhile their truck bed has no scratches, or is covered, and the truck itself only has seen the highway. They don't own a truck - they own a clowned up SUV and a testosterone deficiency.

And nothing of value was lost.

This right here is why it's so VERY important to read things before accepting what is presented as the unblemished truth. 🍻

Sorry, were you quoting someone? I can't see that anywhere else... but perhaps I missed it.

I've had this discussion quite a bit, and it's tough to break the 77 cents on the dollar and whatnot rhetoric, because those people are convinced that a man and a woman doing the same job with equal experience, the woman just automatically makes on average 23% less than a man. And it's easy to prove that wrong, and entirely misses the point.

With the pervasiveness of social media, outrage culture, and, frankly, the steadily increasing difficulty to finding credible sources of information... it's just far too easy to just revert to our baser "tribalistic" tendencies and blame someone and get mad. Toss into the mix the fact that a lot of these topics are sensitive issues and boy howdy EVERYTHING is a powderkeg and ONLY black and white despite evidence to the contrary.

[...] Now, I imagine a lot has changed in 23 years, so maybe that mentality has changed, but if all else is fixed and there is a "pay gap" based on choice like that... that's not a problem that needs to be solved.

Agreed on this point. Different strokes for different folks.

So to recap, we need to stop talking about cents on the dollar and start talking about making rejoining the workforce more available and appealing after having babies, and giving dads more time with their kids to let their wives work.

I'd really like to see a world where it'd be possible for both parents to get leave, be able to work part time while not being put in a financially dire situation, and still have access to crucial things like affordable healthcare and insurance. A pipedream - without question... but one can hope.

This was my thought. It could be done with reinforced materials and then have a wood veneer or facade placed over it... but if someone was going to actually do that - they'd definitely have finished the buildings before assembly.

Don't be caught being evil....
