When I first started using Linux I was impressed with how easily everything seemed to work. Then over time I started to get annoyed with all the things that I had no idea how to fix without looking up, and thought about going back to Windows.
Then I used windows again and was immediately reminded of all the stupid bullshit I had to constantly fight with and forgot about because that was just the norm when windows is the only OS you ever use.

That statement is an absolute.

Even then, a person can survive just fine with $900 million dollars, and $100 million to the right charity can do a world changing amount of good.

There are no ethical billionaires.

Was that all Gabe? Or was that people at Valve who had the ideas and executed the ideas and Gabe is given credit for?

Gabe Newell has a net worth of $9.5 billion and there is no such thing as an ethical billionaire. Steam is great and as long as the company behaves well there’s no reason not to use it, but billionaires are not your friends.

I’m not going to use something that’s shitty now in hopes it will be better later in order to avoid using something that’s better now out of fear it might become shitty later.

If Steam becomes shitty I have no issue dropping it and pirating my already paid for collection.

Cows are the most fit for their environment. Their environment being a useful and sustainable food source for humans to cultivate.

As long as people do nothing other than complain and continue to use the product they have no reason to change.

Probably should be, but isn’t. Bimonthly can mean twice a month or every two months.

You’d be surprised how little that definition helps when someone insists a tomato is not a fruit.

12:00:00 exists in both AM and PM. I have my lunch at 12 PM.

An event that happens biweekly could occur at the same frequency as an event that happens bimonthly.

Fruits are the reproductive organs of plants designed to be eaten by other animals in order to spread their seeds.

Botanically fruit is basically defined as anything with a seed in it.

Although I think botanically vegetable is defined as edible plant matter, so strictly speaking all fruits are vegetables but not all vegetables are fruits.

Thanks tips.

My point is if someone did show up at your house gifting you a horse for Christmas it would be appropriate for you to respond with “what am I supposed to do with this?” And someone telling you “it’s a nice gift, be thankful for it” would be an unreasonable response.

It’s an example that not every gift is thoughtful just because it’s a gift.

I know nothing about horses. I won’t look this gift horse in the mouth because I don’t know know what I’m looking at, but I’m also not going to be thrilled with the horse you’ve gifted me that I have no idea what to do with.
