One of my best instances of this was when I pronounced “ricochet” as “rich-oh-chett” (rhymes with Boba Fett) as a kid. Never gonna live that one down.

Wrote a paper on this for a network theory class back in college and came to pretty much the same conclusion. Pages tend to lead to “funnels” of similar general topics, such as Earth, science, etc. and they all make their way upward into philosophy, which is the study of thinking, since thinking is at its core how we perceive the world.

Interestingly there’s two distances from philosophy that pages tend to hover around, the closer one of which is more full of technology and science stuff while the farther one is mostly places. It’s a pretty interesting deep dive

I’ve got a folder called “apps with a white background” for shits and giggles. Still adhere to it to this day

Spent like 80 hours in the last two weeks playing Space Exploration. Send help

Came here to say this. I was super surprised when I first found out that this came from Spy Kids.

I installed one when I made my first Linux PC last month in case I needed to use Windows for anything that wouldn’t work fine enough on Linux.

One month later and I still haven’t used it for anything. I think I may have underestimated how fleshed out the Linux ecosystem is these days.

It’s mostly just a stereotype. I know plenty of young white femboys who use Windows, and I’m a Linux user who is young and white but definitely not a femboy. I would say 90% of Linux users probably know how to program though.

Just made the switch at the end of December alongside making my new PC. Feels very refreshing to actually be in control of my own computer. I’ve barely run into any issues gaming either, which is a welcome surprise - Proton remains one of the best things Valve has ever done.

Man, I’d kill for a 3 day work week. I’m on a 9-80 schedule but also have to go into the office (1hr each way) 2 days a week, so I end up spending around 10 hours per day on avg Mon-Thurs and it’s absolutely miserable.

Even just a 32 hour 4-day work week would be life changing. As is, I feel like I’m just wasting time half the time i spend working because I’m so burnt out that I’m not as productive as I would be otherwise.

Good for you though. Glad to hear some employers are trying out something more conducive to how human beings actually function.

Hard agree. The whole “bigger responsibility justifies bigger paycheck” idea is bullshit when the executives are far more willing to save their own asses by fucking over employees than take a pay cut and only be able to afford 19 yachts this year.

One executive making $50m/yr is equivalent to 500 employees making $100k/yr (a fairly decent salary). Is the work they do 500x more valuable than an average employee? Strongly doubt it. The whole system’s fucking ridiculous and it absolutely disproportionally screws over the average person.

Heh, you called it.
