At a previous job I had, we were only given options for 1080p monitors. I ended up with a total of 5 and needed all of them.

Samsung store does that too. It’s quite annoying

Toner in laser printers is powder. Can’t dry out what’s already dry. If you get a brother laser printer, it will last forever.

Sacrificing children is pretty common in Linux

Makes 0 difference. The charging circuit is in charge of that logic and will accept whatever voltage is supplied (within spec) and step it down to what the battery needs.

They all do it now (except USPS?)

It’s not like I dropped Netflix and opted to pirate their content instead because of their password sharing restrictions or anything. Nah, can’t be that.

Hidden messages? There are thousands of messages your device sends every day that you don’t know about. It’s how your phone functions like it does.

No, that’s still mostly the cellular connection.

Servers and engineers to maintain the software and infrastructure are also not free.

Is that why nobody would hire you? /s

I don’t think they have steam installed on them.

You don’t, you just release it as is and call it Early Access

Having coded against them, I’d argue that point. They’re just as bad as Wi-Fi.

Systemd is great for process management. It’s fault is trying to do too much.

It’s an unpopular opinion because you’re belittling programmers without proper considerations. You rather get features or you rather people spend their entire lives sanitizing the living hell out of their code to catch every scenario. That’s not to mention user input errors.

The problem stems from the fact that spaces are what’s used to separate command lines arguments. That’s your separator character. Using the separator character inside of an argument causes headaches for everyone involved. By avoiding the separator character, you will have less issues, the developers will have less issues, and you can keep getting features you actually want.

Keep in mind, this does not apply to anything beyond cli input. UIs have field input separation. URLs force a conversion of special characters using their own scheme as well. A different example would be the use of " inside a string wrapped by ". It’s doable, but you will have much less problems if you use a different string wrapper character assuming your language supports it.

Oh no, white spaces are horrible. They cause lots of headaches for programmers constantly. There are just plenty of other separators to use.

That’s why we have _

Oh look, this one isn’t installed on practically every Linux machine in existence

Yeah, but you really don’t need to be an ass and flaunt it everywhere.
