Thanks for your reply, too! I wish every person was as nice as you — sadly, the world is still fucked up, and will remain so, for a long while…

Yeah, I was just pointing out a loophole — and there are likely more.

You could buy them faster than they are built, if you're extremely rich.

They should either keep an OpenGL version, or force GPU companies (mainly Intel, with their iGPUs) to add full Vulkan support.

Keep in mind that this happens in many (specially “romance”) languages, because such gender is grammatical, not literal (unlike in English, where he and she are very much so). For example, in Portuguese (my native language), I can refer to a person as a “pessoa” (“feminine” word gender) — and I can use this to make a grammatically correct, gender-neutral sentence: Ela (essa pessoa) parece bastante simpática. (That person seems quite nice.)

It does not assume gender, as previously mentioned. Since English does not follow the same rules (he/him and she/her refer to actual gender), you can optionally avoid using they/them by using that person's name (or pseudononym): “thatonecoder has some cool projects, although they (the projects) seem to have some flaws. That user seems to be nice, so I might point out some of those issues, in a respectful manner!” (yes, oddly specific example, but I am not very creative, and this gave some ways to refer to a specific person without either using they/them, he/him, or she/her.

Although this video isn't made by me, it is particularly insightful, so I thought I'd share it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf-R7UywbXU

Sorry about this essay, but I really wanted to point this out! If you do have any questions, feel free to ask them!

Yeah… I have tried LLMs, and they have horrible hallucinations. For instance, when I tried to “teach” one about Hit Selecting in Minecraft, I used an example of a player that uses it (EREEN), it kept corrupting it to EREEEN. Even when I clarified, it kept doing it, forever.

Sadly, that is true for many email providers. I do use Tuta, because I use web apps only. However, a decent provider is Disroot. You do have to set up the encryption things by yourself, but IIRC, you can use any desktop/mobile/whatever client you want to.

Good job! Also, just to clarify, there is bitwarden.eu (yes, it is official). Furthermore, uBlock Origin makes Privacy Badger useless.

You should check the Cloud to Butt extension. It is immature, but it can make you laugh

You do need to change the system, but you can keep the President, reduce the President's powers, and have a prime-minister to take care of many areas.

P.S.: I am from Portugal, he's definitely not my President.

You do have a point, but what would be the alternative? I have considered direct democracy, but the ultra-wealthy may still use that to their advantage.
