Genuinely might be my favorite scene in the movie. One conversation and it lays out everything so perfectly and precisely while never leaving the metaphor of the Matrix. Especially the comment about these people being the very people they are trying to save - but until they are, they can't see through the system. It's how I feel every time someone tells me I'm being hyperbolic about capitalism or idealistic about socialism.

Not an insignificant percentage for something this crazy, but I'd like to see this data over time. I worry I sound like I'm awarding Pinocchios but it irks me to see that headline presented as if it's the majority of schools
Including Gerald Ford is a good bit

Recently had the opportunity to set up a new system from basically scratch and tried a few different wayland options, assuming I'd land on hyprland since it seemed to be the most beloved, but then I finished configuring sway and realized it was basically perfect. Might try swayfx at some point but I really don't understand how hyprland got so much of a following
In December 2015 I had already called the nomination for him, and I was the only person I knew who thought that was even remotely possible. Still never thought he'd win the general though.
