Typewriters have hard line breaks. This aesthetic makes RFCs harder to read than necessary on the majority of consumer devices sold since 2012. Form should match the shape of the medium, not fight it.

What about situations where being vulgar is appropriate? Can google vacuum up the context directly from the writer's brain? As an aside, I find it funny how the English language shies away from calling vulgar words what they are in abs

I think Mobian is available there. Once it gets towboot support, it'll be able to run way more UEFI OS.

Sounds like the Librem 5 would fit your bill. Or some single-board computer with USB-C.

Well, I tried to save you from fighting a view that no one represents. That only brings further misunderstanding. Good luck.

You seem to think about "vital for every individual" when no one said that but you. There were various weaker versions of "powerful" considered.

You served the wrong number: this is the share of population on Twitter. I asked about the share of non-Twitterers sharing your values.

That's all true regardless if your world is composed of houses, villages, countries, continents, or whatever else. What matters here is aggression, not aggression to countries, and focusing on countries only blurs the message. That

My guess is that they query a service that does file operations for no good reason, and then busy wait for it.

Which is my point: if you don't care about "your" country, the theories don't go out the window. You might stay consistent and move instead of deciding that killing the invaders is what you do now.

> it’s the value judgment of the ~75% of adults in the US who don’t use Twitter. So 5% of all adults? Yes, I just made up that number, just like you did.

It's not the same claim as being indispensible, but it's the same claim as being extremely vowen into everyday life. I think that claim reflects what is actually being discussed better. What I offer is not a defense of the claim,

It does absolutely matter if you care about countries, because "country" does not have to be how you slice your world when asked "where do you live". You may have your family spread across the continent, on your island,

Not OP, but plasmashell, activitymanagerd, recently krunner. The first two because I have a sshfs mount, the latter only recently for no good reason.

Collecting personal data is insidious: it doesn't manifest itself until it does. It's no different from having your password leaked, or from having your mortgage application rejected for opaque reasons. The data is there, silently

That works only when nationalism is your worldview. It doesn't make sense to care about the country being invaded if country has no value to you.

I didn't set the goalposts :) I just noticed that there is a miscommunication. The miscommunication is that you presume "That doesn’t mean", whereas the whole discussion is about whether that's desired or not.

Size. Market penetration of Twitter is orders of magnitude above that of Nintendo or your friend. You should rather ask: how does influence scale relative to size?

A backup solution. A bank statement scraper. An alarm clock. A GPS track extractor. A time tracker. More that haven't seen regular use or which are just configuration.
