Their active hostility toward Linux users has put me off them pretty much permanently. If they made a big push toward Linux support, I might look at them more favourably.

They clearly don't want me as a customer: fuck 'em.

In the show, gems are asexual, non gendered. They just use female pronouns for convenience.

They never really covered reproduction in depth, except that they're crystals grown in rock substrate. They're closer to computer than biological.

Honestly doesn't sound like a terrible idea on paper, but this spam outbreak could kill it before it gets off paper in a real way. Giving devs a bad taste will stay around a long while.

Edit: and of course the well-earned general attitude toward cryptocurrency as scammer playgrounds is automatically putting it way in the red too.

Thr second is already a metric SI unit. A day happens to be 86.4 kiloseconds. I'm not sure why that is weird.

Redefining the second would be a lot of work for no real benefit.

Hours, days, weeks are not metric, you wouldn't really say kiloday or centiday.
