tbh I like your take too ;-)

Samsung’s pre-installed photo apps do that by default, I believe, unless you spot it and go digging where to turn it off (which seems do differ between some models, if I recall correctly)

I think they just ended the quote too early while still relaying indirect speech
- Comment on Drake's lawsuit over Kendrick Lamar diss track Not Like Us is dismissed 3 days ago:
On the track Taylor Made Freestyle, Drake used the AI-generated voice of Tupac Shakur to give Lamar advice on how to win the rap battle.
“Talk about him likin’ young girls, that’s a gift from me,” the song suggested.
“It is in this context in which such lyrics as 'Say, Drake, I hear you like ‘em young’ must be assessed,” wrote Judge Vargas.
Bruh. Drake literally publishes a song going “what you gonna do, hit me?” and then cries foul when he does, in fact get hit

Well, there’s a free bonus in the fact that unhealthy people also require more healthcare. Probably not intended, but you’d have hard time convincing me that it’s an unwelcome side effect.
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 6 days ago:
It’s fine, that’s just writing in first person perspective as rhetorical device.

Maybe they did. Once. Long ago. Because the tester was even less fit and the only criterion was if a bunch of 17-year-olds could outrun a 60-something with a 40 years of military-sponsored junk food headstart and was half out of breath just shouting “ready – set – huff Go!”

- Comment on New phonetic alphabet just dropped 2 weeks ago:
Þere’s a user around hat always writes like þis, substituting all “th” digraphs with the archaic letter Þ/þ (þhorn) or Ð/ð (eð). Þey were adapted and used interchangeably in Old English in place of “th”, before eventually being replaced by þe digraph again.
Þe user in question found it entertaining to use þem once more. Some people find it extremely annoying and tedious to read.
If you need it in modern English characters, tap here

Strategy vs. Operations
He was good at the latter, as far as I understand, but a General needs to coordinate multiple operations to support and build off of each other.

Then you open it after flushing to check and potentially clean skidmarks?

That’s what I was getting at, yes.
I genuinely believe it might not fix everything, but will go one hell of a long way to making a lot of things easier to fix.

There should be a mechanism to reward artists for their work and enable them to keep creating, but without also allowing a system of vampires to control that mechanism and enslave them in a twisted web of dependency and power.

I really intensely love adverbs though
- Comment on Some Grammaticial voices. 5 months ago:
I get why it’s done from a narrative point of view, but some obnoxious pedantic voice in my head never stops wondering why people would write down obscure lore notes in the middle of a disaster or when they’re about to die. It makes sense for some organisation’s agents to document their discoveries and leave (incremental) reports on-site in case they don’t make it back for a full report, but some random raider in FO4 noting down how pissed he is with his boss?
Of course, I’m a sucker for lore, so I’ll take it, particularly when it’s in audio log form during exploration sections so I can keep exploring and listen instead of stopping to read.

Gonna be hard around here. They recently fixed all the cracks.
- Comment on Anon watches her boyfriend play videogames 7 months ago:
It’s probably more seeing how he reacts when frustrated that’s the red flag.
If he kept his composure until he eventually stopped playing and said “I don’t think this is my type of game”, that would have been a more mature approach to the issue than whining.
