What did this accomplish? This person is down $4,000 and sellers just made money off of someone that isn't even a fan. Sounds like a win for everyone but the person that destroyed the guitar. If I sold my car to someone, I don't give a flying fuck what they do with it. I got paid and it's none of my concern anymore.

I'm in the process of this now. I haven't used Linux in like 15 years so I'm starting slow with my laptop. My goal is to be free from windows on my desktop and laptop before I have to go to Windows 11. I have to use Windows 11 at work and it's fucking miserable. I can understand some of the changes from a personal usage standpoint, but from a work related one there are so many features that just make productivity worse. I've had to change shit in the registry like 7 times just to get some quality of life features that they changed.

Regardless of what it's for, companies should not be able to opt people into whatever the fuck they want and make it as difficult as possible to opt out. Like the whole thing with forced arbitration going on right now where the only way to opt out is to send physical mail to an address within a certain amount of days. They make it as difficult as possible so people are less inclined to opt out.

My brother was having the same issue. He could call people just fine while his girlfriend couldn't. He discovered that he can't call anyone that has an iPhone and they can't call anyone else.

Hey, I just got a phone call from my brother because he couldn't call anyone. I have T-Mobile and he has Verizon. Funnily enough our call worked just fine but he couldn't call his girlfriend. Apparently he has no problems calling people that are using Android but can't call anyone using an iPhone.

Oh man, I would have never known if you hadn't pointed it out. Thank you so much! /s

Regardless of the validity of this story, I guarantee someone out there has done this to a certain extent. People get worked up about pronouns to such a degree that this almost seems like a relatively tame reaction.

That would just make them even bigger targets than they already are. And now they won't have a way to defend themselves? That sounds like a nightmare. I used to play Overwatch and would always play support. There's no way in hell i'd trust my team to help me if I'm being attacked. They're probably just gonna jump ahead and say "I need healing!" fifteen times and call me a trash healer as I get the shit beaten out of me with no way to fight back. If this is how support roles worked nobody would play them. I already get left to my own devices as the rest of the team ignores me getting attacked in the back line. It's already a thankless and painful role to play and this would make it unbearable.

Imagine being so scared of pronouns that you tear up a little kid's English homework. Like, can you really be that dense? What's next, Adjectives?!

I bet you $10 he didn't even read the study. This motherfucker literally googled himself and was mad at the results. And when he googled why it was happening he found the study and immediately went to post about it. And honestly, this is the kinda shit I imagine when people say "do your research." Two google searches while reading headlines and poof now they're an expert.

That's why my TV doesn't have internet access. I just bought a cheap laptop and plugged it in. It's probably cheaper and runs software better than the cheap ass hardware they put into TVs.

I mean, we literally train them by completing the CAPTCHAs. Why do you think you were picking things like bikes, traffic lights, cars, and busses? The only question now is what's next...

As a purchaser of many games online, that makes sense to me. Especially for younger people growing up with this kinda stuff it would be nice to differentiate the two.
