I’m sorry but that’s absolutely not true

I have to use Windows 11, New Outlook and Excel for work, so… frequently.

No. But we’re not trying to encourage people to drive more motorcycles.

We want to reduce the barrier to someone using a pedal bike, and if they have to fart around trying to find a helmet or worry about getting a ticket, they’re more likely to just not bother and use a car instead.

No. Obviously I think if you can wear them you should, but making them required reduces the willingness of people to cycle, so as a strategy for swapping from car to bike, it is less effective.

You… ever been in a Tarkalian prison?

Just like anyone with a massive and mostly unvisited Steam library…

You’ve got to almost admire the “well I don’t do anything that requires precision or collaborating with others, so eyeballing my own body parts should be fine for everyone” attitude there…

I’m reversing the polarity, you’re reversing it back again. We’re confusing the polarity!

I am happy to finally learn the actual name of the symbol and simultaneously sad to learn it’s not called the ampers_at_

Also downloads comics from the future and can boil an egg at thirty paces. You need to stay away from chickens… it’s not pretty when they blow

I guess she was right that it should never have been put to referendum if that’s what the average person thought.

If you don’t know, vote to keep the status quo. Or don’t vote. What the fuck did she think she was doing?

Jesus, these people.

It’s funny because people are saying this about new Star Trek shows to this day. As if there’s only one type of Trek, rather than, oh, I don’t know, Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations or something…
