> Take a step back and ask why - intention and tone are two different things, and if you get the latter wrong then we will misunderstand the former. Good point, OK.

> you know better than them what they’ve done wrong Hardly, since I just agreed with what they said. I suggested what IMHO is a good way to make up for it. Nothing else. > that you…

I am not assuming anything. I made a suggestion, nothing else. They're free to do nothing if they feel like they already did enough. You're assuming I'm assuming , which goes again…

I don't see anything patronizing or showing superiority in what I wrote. I am saying this as a peer, not as a superior. It's kinda weird to expect people not to make mistakes such …

Many electrical outlets now have USB ports... And now it's supposed to be USB-C... And then something else - it's going to be just as hard.

The alternating left-to-right right-to-left lines were done because you could read it easier that way - they used to have gigantic books/scrolls, the lines were very long.

> Even in case of "corpo disallows it" (for whatever idiotic reason) it can be turned off one way or another in OS... Corpo can disallow that too via central policies

I'm usually sending around $500-$1000 once every 2-3 months (per contractor - I work with multiple).
