Now if only they could add “swipe to go back” to their Linux client. Only thing keeping me off of Vivaldi these days.

Did I even watch the movie which hasn’t come out yet? I’m pretty sure I know which of us is a bot.

No.
Bring back my hopeful vision of the future Star Trek, I’m all done with this new wave.

- Comment on is it possible to be married and still feel lonely? 3 months ago:
Anyone can be lonely at any time, even surrounded by people who love them.
I’m happily married, I love my wife very much, she is my favorite person and I would be devastated and lost without her. Still, sometimes I feel lonely.
Sometimes I think about my dad who isn’t with us any longer and I feel lonely. Sometimes I think about work stress and I feel lonely. Sometimes I feel lonely for no damn reason at all.
None of that has anything to do with how much I love my wife, or her ability to “provide”; people are just complicated.
- Comment on I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07. 4 months ago:
Maybe this is a regional thing, but every pizza place that I’m aware of which delivers requires the delivery driver to use their personal vehicle… and does not reimburse for wear and tear.

There’s a reason for this, they want you to download the app because you’re paying for that coupon via primary access to your personal data. Dominos isn’t just a pizza company, for a long time now they have been a data broker too.
Which I guess isn’t surprising, everyone and their mother wants to be a data broker today. It’s a good reason not to install any apps from anyone though.

Have you seen the responses here? Paints a picture on why they felt the need to defend themselves.

I just take it as an opportunity to block people these days. “You gave your kid pizza so you’re a shit lazy parent and no mitigating factor will be considered” is a pretty clear indicator that they don’t need any openings into my attention span lol.

It’s crazy that you went way out of your way to placate the internet assholes and they still found something to be insufferable about.

- Comment on Windows just changed the desktop wallpaper and re-added the search bar without my permission after an update 5 months ago:
Sure, because it logically follows that the troll here is the “I had an irritating and unexpected behavior on windows” person, not the “Linux users are troglodytes” person.
FWIW, windows also did this to me as a part of the “oh god please oh please use Bing search on Edge” campaign.

I’m not sure how you messed up, because I was able to not blame the user for decisions made on their behalf without their consent, and I too saw this post.
- Comment on Guild Wars 2: Janthir Wilds - Expansion Announcement 5 months ago:
I had a setup that turned on the action camera when I put my thumb on the steam decks left stick, so I was always in normal mode unless I was actively looking around or moving.
It was pretty natural and the next experience I came up with, but I still felt like it was a compromise I was frustrated to have to make.
- Comment on Guild Wars 2: Janthir Wilds - Expansion Announcement 5 months ago:
I set up a pretty workable controller config that I played with for like two months, but even with many hours invested in fine tuning it I just felt like I was fighting the game’s UI and I gave up.
What’s really frustrating is that the game is totally playable with a controller. ANet just needs to update the menus and it would be a fantastic experience.

Or just “request desktop website”.
- Comment on How to ease up the return to GW2 6 months ago:
I would kill for controller support on this game. I have my steam deck set up with some pretty ok mappings that make the game playable, but compared to like FF14 the experience is just annoying enough to keep me from really digging in. It’s mostly the menu system.

Remember folks, it’s a crime to force a baker to bake a cake for a gay person, but totally fine to force a company to employ a bigot against their will.
