Reminds me of the time I worked at the Sears repair call center... A woman who lived on the island of Nantucket needed her washing machine repaired - Sears only went out there two days a week, and they were booked for a couple weeks, so of course she asked "what am I supposed to do until then?" I suggested a laundromat. "Have you seen the kind of people who go to the laundromat?" I said "yup, I'm there once a week." Was quite proud of myself, usually I don't think of the perfect response until minutes later...
I tend to agree that this is how it should be, that doesn't mean that's how it is. If you walk around with a T-shirt that says "kill all CEOs" along with where to find them, you're going to run into some trouble, despite being a similar situation- you're just giving instructions, it's up to the viewer what to do with them.
I have a shirt with a QR code that goes to a Rick roll. It doesn't work nearly as well as I'd hoped. Even people trying to scan it have a hard time, forget about anyone scanning it unknowingly. Mr. Astley did in fact let me down.
In my 20s, I (a guy) briefly dated a girl who was hopelessly infatuated with a gay guy. I guess technically it wasn't a triangle because the gay guy had a pretty serious boyfriend, so more of a quadrangle... She got in between them, got him drunk & got herself knocked up, he "did the right thing" and married her, had another kid, then they got divorced after he had an affair with a guy...
It's funny, I have her friended on Facebook, mostly because the drama is often entertaining, but I usually keep my comments to myself. When the divorce happened, she made this long post that basically said "woe is me, how could this have happened?" I couldn't resist responding with "maybe because you married a gay guy?"
Not at all. OS should just be core functionality, all bells and whistles should be add-ons so they can be added, replaced, or done without if not needed.
It pisses me off so much when Farcebook puts one of those rage-bait stories in my feed that I feel compelled to respond to, but I don't want to go off half cocked, so I take a minute to Google it, or maybe just grab an image to make a witty response, and as soon as I click back on the tab, it refreshes and the post is gone, never to be seen again...
What even is plain text anymore? If you mean ASCII, ok, but that leaves out a lot. Should it include a minimal utf-8 detector? Utf-16? The latest goofy encoding? Should zcat duplicate the functionality of file? Generally, unix-like commands do one thing, and do it well, combining multiple functions is frowned upon.
