@thor I honestly don't think I've used my mouse to move the pointer to the start menu button and click it in the past decade. Slamming super and immediately typing whatever I want to launch is so much faster. Also super+arrows is great for tiling windows, especially on multiple screens where dragging a window to the shared edge to make it tile to half of the screen is a pain in the ass. Oh, and super+c and super+v work for advanced copy+paste on Windows with clipboard history.
@thor win10 being actually kinda efficient was my biggest shock related to MS products and I'm still bewildered they managed to do something somewhat right. It's better for running on weak hardware than win7 and Vista designed for that hardware.
@admitsWrongIfProven @bonifartius this directly translates into disincentivising attacks.
@admitsWrongIfProven @bonifartius you do realise that the victim potentially having hammers and knives yields less risk for the attacker, right? One of the cool things about guns is that a victim armed with a gun gas much better chances of defending themselves from an attacker with a gun than the same situation with melee weapons, especially since thugs tend to target weaker marks like women.
@kroner @coolboymew ok that sounds amazing, what's it called?
Microsoft talking about internationalization is like Facebook talking about UX or Oracle talking about Open Source.

@ryanmiglavs also pretty funny that it got so popular and Facebook engineers are still invited to front-end conferences, when Facebook web apps are so awful.
They made the framework, and used it to create some of the worst web app garbage known to man outside government and corpo internal systems, and everyone saw it and was like "yup, seems perfect, let's use this".

I am extremely grateful to people that give me extra chances to be civil after I jump into a thread and shit all over everything before calming down.

@coolboymew @D00B y'know, it just occurred to me that I haven't seen it in a while either, even though it was pretty much standard 15 or so years ago. I guess it was an artifact of manual animation, and the automagical layer-based rendering of modern studios made it obsolete? It makes sense that it survived a bit longer than needed due to being a convention.
@thecyberd3m0n what? How? I remember trying it 2 or so years after it mostly died (so ancient history at this point) and it was still dead. Some sort of revival happening?

People lie to minorities about Mastodon-compatible servers being heckin' based and epic for their privacy and resisting harassment. This might be spicy for some people, but unless you're on a private instance with a disabled API for unauthenticated users and make serious concessions like instance whitelisting, Twitter is probably better for your privacy. That's how bad it is. Fuck, secure fetch being widespread isn't even that old.
Every instance of people who follows you logs your posts, private or not, potentially forever. It's an open secret that many people do not respect post deletes for performance reasons. So when the lies of slimy fucks falls apart when people start deflecting blame. I've seen people criticise even /screenshotting/ posts, calling it stalking. Bitch, every server is practically archiving all your posts in a database with zero encryption. Those remote instances could have security of Swiss cheese. It's too many points of failure to trust. The absolute hypocrisy and false advertising this place has gotten is fucking ridiculous.
Mastodon-compatible networks are not a private place. It is not decentralised. You have less control over your data than /fucking Twitter./ You are probably more safe on Twitter as well. You do not have control over your identity.
Fuck you to the people who built your communities, Patreons, companies on these false pretenses. Rot in hell.
