On-line surveys have always had this problem with bots and people with agendas. Its sad and comical they are pretending this is something new.

There is a point at which we have not struggled enough to understand and empathise with our elders, sure, but almost 100% of the time, its the reverse that's happened;

They have not seen enough of our struggles and lack the capactity to understand or empathize with them as struggles at all. Their struggles, and later comfort, let's be honest, have numbed them and fitted blinders to their judgement.

A noob, or anyone who spends too much time on /UnixDesktops without realizing that /rainmeter is also a thing.

Just answering your question. Debian here

No. Windows has these "issues" if you use a diverse-enough set of apps, and there are quite-a-few things it won't let you tweak without paid or uNtRuSteD apps that Linux will. The difference is that Linux includes more diverse apps by default, and doesn't hide them away very well.

Personally, I love a bit of inconsistency, and Windows resides on my laptop because I'm more concerned with getting Linux onto my phone these days.

I can do the bottom three just fine. I cannot out-rap most professionals at present.

Nah. It ties back to the idea that an adult's handwriting is unique. If everything else matches, but every word is spelled correctly you might have a forgery on your hands, or they could be writing under duress.

Didn't help that all of the "high-society"/"high-minded" types were as obsessed with riddles and codes as the most extreme would-be sleuths you'll meet today ... or maybe the generation of average net denizen has lost out on something.

That 800k number is the saddest I've felt since the morning of the 5th. Wtf?

NIMBYs everywhere, go figure.

The "blue hydrogen", "produced from natural gas which is then sequestered" bit is a ridiculous stretch though. Forcing byproducts back into the ground is one of the "justifications"/"pros" for fracking.

The article is not written for them.

Someone didn't read the article...

I mean, if you have negotiable standards of personal comfort, and poor credit, it becomes difficult to build up that level of crippling debt.

Personally, those are both a requirement and a given.

What about my comment implied I didn't realize that? Anyways, Raktajino was also consumed a lot on Voyager. Its strange that Quark focused on Root Beer in light of all the other stuff people drink, other than, hey, this is the only carbonated thing they drink that's not caffinated or alcoholic ... but that wouldn't be true either?

He did say "Starfleet" drink a lot of it, not "humans", so maybe it is just that pupular with Vulcans, Andorians, Tellerites, etc.
