No disagreement at all there.

Falling back to insults when you can't provide a source isn't terribly convincing.

I can at least provide examples of them stating directly the opposite.

I use Adobe Premiere for editing, and one of the many fun ways that Adobe is kind of ass is that it just doesn’t work on Linux.

  • Luke, "My Linux Curse is NOT Over... But It's Getting BETTER - Pt.2 Linux 30 Day Challenge 2026", emphasis mine

Adobe is very clearly the party being blamed here, not linux.

Presumably you can point me to a specific video, since you seem so completely sure of it. I'm not scrubbing through potentially hours of footage to try to find something that I don't think exists.

As for your suggestion that he just reviews what he's paid to do, sure, that seems plausible. I'm not trying to argue that it's an impartial channel and people should be watching him. You certainly don't need to defend a decision to not watch it.

There's an important distinction between not caring about race in the sense that you treat all people you encounter with equal consideration, and not caring about race in the sense that you disregard all racially based socio-economic concerns. A person flippantly expressing a lack of caring reeks of the latter.

If a user needs Photoshop in their workflow then Linux isn't an option for them. That is a problem with Linux, from a user perspective.

Who's at fault for that problem is a different question, and I'd be surprised if LTT ever say that Linux is to blame.

The company I work for paid for Claude and has made it mandatory that we use it. It's actually insane.

We also have "Code Rabbit" leaving LLM reviews on our PRs. It's hilarious how often it completely misses the actual change and just waxes eloquent on the formatting changes that our linter enforces when we commit a change to a file that hasn't been touched since prior to our current linter rules.

Even crazier, I've had a VP complain to me directly how much he hates reading LLM generated text that someone just spat out at him.

Yet here we are, still required to use it.

I cancelled my Netflix several years ago literally the very first time I got an error that too many people were watching or a screen wasn't authorized or whatever the specific "you can't share your account anymore" error was at the time.

The fact that account sharing was tacitly allowed was literally the only thing keeping the value proposition of having the account afloat.

Do you have any preferred method for submitting missing data? Peter Pan & Wendy (2023), The Shipping News (2001), and The Grand Seduction (2013) were all filmed in Newfoundland.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

I would be absolutely floored of enough people were on board to even make a noticable difference for just one week. Boycotts in the gaming space have been hilariously ineffectual, historically.

At least most responses seem to be pushing back on OP's implication that this is some kind of double standard.

Does no one else notice that both of these responses point out that how the recipient feels makes a difference? They're addressing the unfortunately most common experience, but also including that how you feel or if you're okay with it is important.

As for the "bias" being presented here, there's nothing wrong with responding to unequal things unequally. Women are far more likely to experience unwanted touching and that's just the sad reality.

 

I, for one, am excited. Yasmine is the character I'm most looking forward to this season. Will come back and post my impressions after the trailer is live.

 

I made a post here a few days ago complaining about content all being elsewhere, which was nice to vent, but doesn't really help the situation. Now I've decided to be the change.

Let's actually talk a little. What games do you all play? Tell me what you like about them!

Personally I've always been big into Street Fighter. I enjoy almost any fighting game, but the SF series is the one that I have by far put the most time into. I'm having a blast with SF6, even if I am just a diamond rated scrub. :D

 

Just venting, but if you want to avoid Twitter it means missing out on easily 90% of FGC activity, and the remaining 10% is almost all Discord and Reddit.

RIP SRK.

 

I can't wait.
