Now the question is: is this a technical?

This looks AI generated, why didn't he just get the clothes and take a damn picture? That way it wouldn't look like shit

And there was a point in... 3, I think, where Harry was instructed to delay catching the snitch until they were at least 50 points up because they wouldn't have enough league points or something to progress if he didn't.

And also Ubisoft isn't American, they're a French company. So instead of Guile we should have Manon.

Vegeta's first act on screen is to blow up an entire planet, probably killing hundreds of millions

And so, to make the DNC face concequences, let's make them lose to the candidate that's aspiring to be a second Mussolini immediately! When he does the Day of the Rope, all those trans people who get hanged will appreciate that we made sure the DNC had concequences!

I work in IT, and every time I do an install (sometimes new computers, sometimes not) for someone I see Microsoft's little News widget they put on the Taskbar, the one that pops up a huge window if you mouse over it. Every time I see that, I ask the person if they ever use it, and they always say no. Then I ask them if they want it gone, and they always say yes, usually with some kind of relief. It's a matter of two clicks to do it, easier than going into the settings menu like your screenshot, but every computer I haven't been on previously has it. Now, I'd wonder why Microsoft would put something on the Taskbar that is, in my experience, universally disliked. To me it reeks of the pathetic, groveling, "I'll suck your dick" energy they have when someone installs Chrome.

Windows 10 changed a lot over the course of its lifetime, and while some feature are good, like Dark Mode, they're mostly useless or downright bad. So putting something that most people will never use and will greatly confuse and annoy the average user in a place that has been dedicated to a single function for at the very least Windows 10's entire lifetime (I think it's there in 8 and maybe 7 also) for seemingly no reason other than to fuck with people's muscle memory is just one more move very worthy of griping about, no matter how easy it is for users to turn off. Because 99% of users just won't, because they aren't confident enough to go futzing around in the settings. But they'll still get whatever god awful popup this button shows every time they try to show desktop like they've been doing for over a decade. It's yet another change that nobody asked for, nobody will use, and that the user will have to remember that it's different now for no reason.

It's wild how people pretend that the prequels weren't hated by a bunch of people. Like, the Plinkett Reviews of the prequels were legendary YouTube videos for years before people started ironically memeing the prequels in, like, 2016.

Fun fact, the X in X-Mas is actually the Greek letter X (pronounced Chai or Key) that has been an accepted shortening for Christ, oftentimes by the Catholic Church, for literally thousands of years! If you've ever seen that P with an X at the bottom, that's Chi Roh, another Greek shortening of Christ or Christos. So people earnestly bitching about "taking the christ out of Christmas" with Xmas is a moron who doesn't know their own religion's history.

A significant amount of compsci angst post-graduation is caused by business majors and their lack of knowledge about what they're managing. But the people who are currently students aren't complaining about that actual grievance, they're mostly bitter about other majors having more fun.

No, it was him watching Moscow hookers pissing on a bed in the presidential suite of a hotel, with a previous resident of that room being Obama. It's been a while since I thought about the piss tape.

Really makes me think they need a union. Also makes me wonder what all Linus learned from this guy who "taught me everything about management" if this is his style of management.
