I have no concern with being cool or uncool because the only opinion that has bearing on my self worth is my own. Anyway, I'd laugh because being offended by the word is just... baseless? People can be offended by anything, reasonable or not, and it's each individuals responsibility to cope with that. It's not like I'm dropping N bombs or calling them a whore. I'm comparing them to a fucking cat. Cowardice is an unacceptable trait in adults and tolerating it does far more harm to the coward in question than calling them out on it does.

Christ. You are going to need to be surgically detached if you ever decide to get off your high horse. I get that you used to be misogynistic or an asshole or something, so now you're extra sensitive about it, projecting maybe, whatever. This is another one of those things where it's YOUR responsibility to cope with it, not mine.

I say what I mean and I get my point across. Do I actively want to offend people? No, of course not. But it's not nearly at the top of my list of concerns. If it hurts someone's feelings, they are free to talk to me about it. If they make sense, I'll adjust my behavior and apologize. Something along the lines of "when I was a piece of shit I used that word in a piece of shit way" does not sway me. I'm not you bro. I'm not malicious. I'm a straight-talker, and people value that.

good job bud! you get a gold star for respecting women ⭐

jokes aside live your life but I still say it. I'm not gonna stop saying it. If someone accused me of misogyny for it I'd laugh in their face and call them something a lot worse.

You're probably right about pussy (vagina) originally meaning pocket but I don't think it does anymore. People now euphemistically refer to vaginas as a "kitty" or sometimes they even use a cat emoji.

People believing that pussy (coward) is a reference to vaginas AND people who think it's short for pusillanimous are people who let their politics color their perception of the world. Men who hate women, women who hate men, and men who hate that women hate men. It's conspiratorial thinking all around.

"pussy" as in coward and "pussy" as in vagina are both references to cats. pussycats. we call cowards pussies because cats scare easily. we call vaginas pussies because they are soft and delicate (not actually, but that's how we want to treat them)

this doesn't have to be a misogyny thing, and anti-misogyny thing, or an anti-anti-misogyny thing. everyone just fucking chill out about this word, ffs

probably a lot less performant than doing it the old fashioned way. sometimes that matters. you should have the non-grid non-flex method half committed to memory. abusing flex or grid to save 2 lines of code is not a great practice, and having only one child element is usually a pretty clear sign that flex/grid is the wrong tool for the job

at the end of the day though do whatever you want, in fact why not just write a javascript function to recenter it every frame at 60fps cause 99.9% of the software 99.9% of people interact with is pure shit made by developers who don't care for users who don't care.

we live in a slop world, made by and for slop people who love slop. can you tell i've been awake for 30 hours? anyways...

You don't know what a joke is. Lmfao

I don't care one way or the other who uses Linux and who evangelizes or demonizes Linux. I just find bandwagoning and anti-bandwagoning kind of offensive on a visceral level. Think for yourself breh. Letting strangers pull levers and push buttons in your brain is gross.

KDE is objectively the better DE from a technical standpoint (in my objective opinion) but sometimes GNOME just feels right in the moment. I have both installed and switch between them all the time

Letting other people make decisions for you like that is weak-willed. My interest in things is intrinsic and isn't affected by external factors, yours should be too

Nah, I really don't think anyone is naturally computer savvy. Computers are literally the furthest thing from nature in existence. Some children are given the freedom and/or encouragement to explore computers, and some aren't. Giving a child an iPhone or an iPad as their first computer is the opposite of this, btw.

Edit: For the record, nobody I know who uses a terminal on a daily basis used it in class for the first time.

You're delusional in the other direction. Take the normalpill, bro. Reality is more or less neutral to you almost all the time.

dude, 15 minutes? I watched my friend take a dab for the first time and he was unresponsive for two fucking hours. He was standing upright staring at the horizon without moving an inch. He only spoke once, about an hour in, and he said "time is nothing"
