Stupid rules like "only refuse once". You have to refuse once because it's considered polite to offer, even if they don't want to, so you have to refuse once. If they actually meant it they can now go "oh, but I insist", at which point you should accept, otherwise it's impolite to refuse.
Attacking how communication is done instead of what's being communicated is a form of subversion the CIA uses to mess with foreign actors. The left and its tolerance towards others (e. g. misgendering by accident) is very susceptible to such attacks and they've let themselves be decimated on the public stage because of it.
I have a watch that shows binary time. Two rows, I think 12 hour cycle, no seconds. Pretty easy to read, honestly. Also an absolute nerd gadget and I loved it.
Everything goes through our brains and therefore filters and interpretations. Science doesn't happen if grants are approved and that usually means someone has something to gain. Even then, results are skewed by method and biases.
Science very much does care about our feelings, both individual and collective, every step of the way. That's why there needs to be special care to take them out as much as possible.
Because the current requirements are constant and not like a photography flash just a short but extreme amount. There's no point in putting a few Watt seconds into a capacitor if the power requirement is 2kW for minutes.

I just set up a brand new HP Zbook for work with Debian, and apart from disabling secure boot and rebooting a brazilian times to get into different parts of the UEFI it went without a hitch, KDE with wayland and all. WiFi drivers work already during the installation, the docking station was immediately recognized. It just works now.
Everyone already using it is just going to roll their eyes, maybe hate-tweet about it, and move on. CEOs, middle managers, and sales people are salivating open-mouthedly.
The best moment to delete your Twitter account was ten years ago. The second best is now.
