Dell owns Alienwar3, so generally I don't see the need for that. Perhaps display port? 23 is indeed the manufactured year, like the other Dell monitors in this thread.

I have. (IT has a perhaps not surprising amount of them). Usually at that point it isn't stupidity, it's a form of selfishness. Either they prioritize what they need and either don't see or don't care the harm (some small business owners) or they have a strong belief that they are right, and won't acknowledge any other viewpoint. They can do good work in stuff they know, but may be insufferable if you're trying to correct their way of doing things and they just think their way is better (our whole section of IT lost access to edit firewalls because one of our higher placed techs kept doing things his way and security kept having to fix it. I replaced him when he left). People who are skilled in one area also seem to think they're automatically smart in others, like Ben Carson.

Back to the small business owners, Behind the Bastards has a couple of episodes starting with How Nice, Normal People made the Holocaust Possible. In it he discussed how many small business owners feared becoming destitute, and in that fear despite not needing the help fell for fascism in order to keep their place. I've met people who said they voted for Trump because they thought he'd be better for them as a business owner, and there was pressure from business owners during the pandemic too. These people aren't necessarily idiots, but their priorities put themselves before the other.

There isn't, but emphasis on why it's an issue is always a good thing to do. Same reason people get upset when some articles say "had sex with a minor" or "involved in a relationship with a minor" when the accurate crime is "raped a minor."

People have a particular palate then for some stupid reason make it a trait to be judged. I was explaining what I liked and disliked coconut in until the person informed me I liked savory coconut dishes and didn't like sweet ones, which after review, she was right. This does not mean I think people who like Piña Coladas are inferior people with weird tongues, I just have a difference in taste than them. I do like Pineapple on Pizza though.

My issue with Mass Effect Andromeda. "Maybe it isn't as bad as people say and I somewhat remember. Why did I stop anyway?"

Get to the same thing that lost my interest last time "Ah, right."

Feels like a Nazi just trying to act like a leftist. They either don't understand nuance, are going for gotchas, or trying to recruit.

This is mostly lighting. Changing from a colder light to a warmer light does wonders.

I think it's more the accusation than you, but, /shrug. Unless you're the one who pioneered this whole thing.
