not long before dropping out in the 90s in a conservative, backwards, rural area – the need to cite sources and do extensive research, and have a willingness to have my ideas challenged, was something I grokked from high school. i don’t expect much from from West Virginia, but I didn’t then either.

he was a zombie, and no other zombies have survived for the fossil and archaeological record. so… eaten by other zombies? yes or no.

no one has forgotten that Windows is the most popular. who cares. you’re the one yelling about windows on mobile platforms and it is the best shit ever. I still think linux is better, but it’s debatable. this is like arguing with my grandpa after he got DOS 6.0 in a box, on 3.5" disks. He thought he was the most clever of fellows. Fuck him.

i’m comfortable with windows and with linux. the hardware in all these things is interesting. so you want to go with proprietary software. love you for it.

i meant I’ve never physically been near one of these things, specifically the Steam Deck or its competitors.

 You’re not on many gaming forums then, especially not PC ones.

yeah, I’m not. i build my own, but i don’t need that toxic silly trash.

i learned when i was maybe 16, 17, you can just ask a guy who works with leather – “can you make a belt that will hold my pants up” – the dude was so confused and so happy to help me and it did not cost very much. that guy was so nice.

i haven’t even personally seen any of these things. so no, I literally can’t handle that. i’m also very annoyed buy steam and valve, in general. but windows? windows is the worst.

so you’re a windows stan, or what’s your deal?

Apple has a new event and a new phone and a new watch EVERY YEAR. aren’t we obligated to buy all this shit every year?

I want that spicy, chunky chili. but windows brings bugs and ads. windows is like getting eat up by mosquitos while the chili is thin and tepid.

no, from perspiration. salty!

you know what, for all builders and contractors: please build things in a way that people don’t die. forgot about that part.

I’m on your side friend. Your goals are true. Sorry I still don’t know the answer.

i’m sorry that I was too aggressive. I still feel that a lot of commenters were throwing shade where it didn’t belong.

Nope, that’s on you. Go ahead, cyberpunk007, and explain how to survive.

I’m not endorsing it, but it definitely happens. It’s like this: measure twice. cut once, or more than once. Put door in hole. Fill gaps with whatever caulk gun or whatever. …

Collect rent.

Again, I am not against building to code. “Code” doesn’t exist in much of the world, and sometimes the materials aren’t available to make it possible.

sounds like a door on the side of a trailer or some such. people live and raise kids in a wide variety of environments.
