I think if you click outside of that pop-up it disappears completely, which as you say is totally inconsistent with everything else in Windows, but it is at least possible to get away from it with the mouse.

It would be hilarious if the thing about us not being tankies was an intentional troll...but this cracker was still butthurt about being called a cracker and couldn't help complaining about it

The incident in question occurred when someone (a programming.dev admin, specifically), whose client hides the pronouns, used 'they' to refer to a user with she/her pronouns.

He just died? Wow. I didn’t know that. You are telling me now for the first time. He led an amazing life. What else can you say. Whether you agreed or not, he was an amazing man who led an amazing life. I am actually sad to hear that. I am sad to hear that.

I'm rather fond of James Webb Space Telescope images, myself. It's nice sometimes to close out to desktop and have my breath taken away. Not sure if they have wallpaper-sized images; I like to grab the full-res ones and just look at a portion of the full image.

And they backed into that tiny parking space too, bravo!

How does this shithead not realize that parking like that is practically begging those of us who drive older cars to park right next to them?

Except she uses the term "bedtime abolition discourse" without a hint of irony, as best I can tell; not even a set of scare quotes on it.

The primary thing that annoys me about this person's point is the term "bedtime abolition." She doesn't want bedtime abolition at all; no one does (everyone wants to go to bed at some point, after all). What she wants is wakeup-time abolition. And I agree with that. Calling it bedtime abolition has the dual effect of incorrectly expressing the issue, and making the person saying it sound like a whiny child.
