I'll take my mentally stable wife scrolling Instagram stuff daily over my nutcase ex that I could game with.

I don't think it's okay to be toxic to newbies but there certainly are cases where the solution to problems was a google search and 10 minutes of reading away.

There are a lot of community heroes out there, that spend their days supporting users in forums, without having any monetary benefit from it, that in my opinion may have a reason to be upset if someone does not want to spend any effort on their own in trying to solve their problem.

Not all of them, but there are more than I thought: Wiki

Notably Humba Wumba and aptly named Bikini Girl.

You can have the best tool in the world and still find people just hitting their own face with it.

Semi related: There's a cool rabbit hole you can dive into when it comes to coastline lengths of some countries. Specifically the UK.

Depending on who measured the coastline and with which method the results can be wildly different because there's always some form of simplification required. See this video for example: Link

Bottom left panel is completely redundant, but it still makes the joke hit so much harder for me

The group I referenced had a paid membership. Scale that up and make it digital and you may end up with a gender exclusive social media app.

I get what you mean though, but I feel there's a bit more nuance than what you imply.

In an upcoming post: "Why can't anyone just make a button that automatically hacks facebook???!!!"

It's really interesting how differently you see technology as a professional compared to "normies". So much stuff is easily solved by following instructions or reading error messages.

Well done, here's your price: 🏅

You may redeem it for a star on a GitHub repo of your choice.

It all gets put into the main method though in this version 😄
