@TeaTootler my number one argument is that it doesn't come preinstalled on computers that are sold in stores. Normies check email and use Facebook and play phone games. Most of them wouldn't have to deal with any of the "issues" Linux presents when moving your work or game environment.

Which has always been funny to me. If computer makers sold comps with Linux they would make a little more money from not having to buy windows for every single profit turn.

@PurpCat @beardalaxy The fact that even 8chan users didn't put up with it meant that you will be purging more than just normies.

@beardalaxy I'm reminded of the FOSS mascot threads on 8chan's /tech/ board and how they were mostly furbait, but a lot of people hated those threads for that.

@tomie @hachi I remember accidentally enabling Microsoft Narrator on our Windows 7 family computer as a kid and not knowing any way to disable it.

It was extremely annoying because it will narrate EVERYTHING, which it's supposed to do, obviously, but most people who can actually see don't read everything on a single page. There are things that we seeing people don't read that the thing will read like disclaimer texts on the footers, hidden HTML elements, and other things.

I feel like even for a blind person, those things are probably annoying to use, unless it's one of those screen-readers that can output braille.

What did I do to attract so many furries on this account?

It can't be my pfp because furries are generally more attracted to realistic depictions of anthropomorphic animals. Usagi is nowhere near that level.

The climate movement’s annual showpiece, the United Nation’s Conference of Parties (COP), held this year in Baku, Azerbaijan, has been exposed to an unprecedented level of disinterest—even dissent—from developing nations.

@jensorensen I go out of my way to make sure the things I buy are dumb! Like my Air Fryer Oven is the good old fashioned analogue dails - no app and it does what I want it to! 😁

It's coincidental that last week, a Homeland Security joint subcommittee held a hearing on a bill that would renew and reform counter-UAS legal authorities and strengthen the FAA's oversight powers of drones.

God's Disdain has 296 wishlists on Steam! Wow! That's actually really incredible and much more than I thought it'd get. Can we get just 4 more to push it to 300? That would be awesome!

What's the gayest shit we can add to our game?
Idk, we can make it so the player has to bottom to complete the mission...
That's too obvious, not creative.
Hmmm, I have an idea:

I simply can't compose music. Like I can come up with simple scales and that stuff, but trying to compose something of a specific genre or to fit a certain situation is something I simply can't do. Part of that is because I always associate certain situations with songs/pieces I already know and I can never come up with anything else. Like, I always associate being underwater with the Dire Dire Docks/Jolly Roger Bay OST from Super Mario 64. It evens plays in my head when I'm underwater IRL. I can't think of anything else, even in my own games I have a copyrighted song playing in my head when visioning a certain situation.

I guess I'm stuck with using stock music or having to get someone else to compose music for my games.
