Being together for a month or less and not only learning that your S.O. is a-okay with being woken up in the middle of the night by manual stimulation but also having the opportunity to do so two or three times seems like an absolutely wild relationship timeline to me.

Disagree. The frustration caused to individuals looking for an answer far outweighs the utterly inconsequential reduction in Reddit's "value" by removing the comment. Burning your Reddit history is performative nonsense that only causes problems for frustrated individuals.

Docker?

…all what things they listed?

Yeah, agree that choosing the same distro again was kind of silly, but understand wanting to give it a second try. I was also disappointed by the decision though. Was glad to see Luke choose CachyOS. I slapped it on a small gaming machine a couple of months ago and have been quite happy with it.

He’s said a couple of times that he’s trying to view it through the lens of a casual, non-technical user, and the fact that similar problems also exist on Windows doesn’t stop them from being problems.

I hate that they didn’t rotate the logos on the 2 and 3.

It’s literally how their wealth is calculated, but okay. Even if I’m incorrect and it’s not already the case they can easily dodge such a tax by buying a bunch of non-liquid assets and making it the case.

Billionaires aren’t sitting on billions in currency held in banking accounts. They are holding billions in assets which are valued at those numbers. You couldn’t just take all of Bezo’s “wealth” above $1b without liquidating most of Amazon. Not that I disagree with you in principle, it’s just not as simple as your proposed solution requires.

I’m one of those deranged few who actually used em dashes in my normal typing habits. Not super often the way LLMs are prone to, maybe once a month tops. Alt+0151 or Compose, dash, dash, dash. Now a find myself reluctant to use what I felt was a useful bit of punctuation out of concern people might think what I’m typing was LLM generated. It sucks.

Eh, no skin off my back. Pretty sure if you search my comment history for the word “grok” this comment chain is the only time I’ve ever used it. It’s not a regular part of my speech, I just never interpreted it in the way you were saying.

or you have such trouble being understood, or understanding neurotypical people, you think you need a new word. My background pretty heavily leans toward comp-sci and hacker culture, and “grok” in those circles is almost never used in the context of people, so I find it a bit odd that this is what you seem to be focusing on. It had very little to do with the difficulty of understanding other people, and much more to do with the understanding of a language, or nuanced hardware interactions, or programming techniques. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grok#In_computer_programmer… For what it’s worth, I agree on your specifics, and if someone is frequently making statements about being unable to grok others, or others not being able to grok them, than it’s at the very least off-putting.

It’s a useful word with no direct equivalent in English. You don’t need to integrate the cult aspect of the book into your identity to understand that.
