    There is no coffee shop anywhere in the world where I would leave my laptop unattended. Even if things are unlikely to go wrong the level of avoidable risk is simply too high. A $3…

    Okay, so you're a chump with a slave mentality who can be broken by a spanking but you think other men are weak. Got it. All these corporal punishment societies and families have t…

    That's not actually tiling, is it? To me that reads like fullscreen with workspaces. If one uses a manual tiling window manager like i3 or sway and a large monitor one can divide t…

    Pixel perfect means it looks EXACTLY like the design comp. It goes completely out of the window if the browser window isn't the exact size of the mockup. You might charitably say t…

    It seems like people will do anything to avoid running Linux locally, even when depending on Linux software.

    How about you stop using drugs, how about that? Really if you want to bomb the people responsible for the overdoses it's probably the overdosers parents who abused them. What happe…

    Mobile is completely hamstrung, all of the effort went into creating as much vendor lock-in as possible rather than into creating a useful pocket computer. There's all this cool te…

    "holy FOSS war"? Why not have a commissar sit behind every gamer to make sure they're not cheating? That's a startling degree of access to give to these people for access to cosmet…

    It's one of those things that people who haven't experienced simply wouldn't know to ask for. Wii had motion aiming but it was more of a gimmick, it wasn't until playing FPS games …

    I'm not letting a game company have root on my PC. How does that kind of exposure for something as frivolous as gaming even make sense?

    The Xbox controller doesn't even have a gyro. Xbox controller design is completely stagnant.

    There are fewer people in Finland than there are in Dallas, Texas. "National level" sounds like a big deal but in real terms it's the same effect as your city wide rules for larger…

    Move the browser to the side? I can never understand why anyone would want to manually shuffle windows around as a disorganized stack. From my perspective the desktop metaphor UX w…

    "compiled" isn't a property of a language. I think the distinction that both you and the author of the tool are making is always going to be messy. It seems to me that you're talki…

    I don't think of the things you listed as "topics". Browser, code, slack, etc.. seem more like tasks or activities to me. I used to use i3 on a 49" super ultrawide monitor (32:9) a…
