If you thought making this comment was a good idea you might need to get a grip on life.

If a sample image is “making some women feel unwelcome in the field” you may be too sensitive for life.

And they get mad at you when you are trying to help.

I’ll say too often interfaces are written for devs and not users.

Because if you wear your religion on your sleeve and are highly observant then that means you are conservative and rules focused by nature. People who belong to liberal Christian denominations, like Unitarianism, are rarely heard from because they aren’t vocal by nature.

People who are very religious also want to believe that what they follow is the truth but the very existence of nonbelievers casts doubt on this either consciously or subconsciously. “If my beliefs are self evident then how can so many nonbelievers exist?” So they rationalize this as either thinking of you as a sinner who deliberately refuses to accept the “truth” or a poor lost soul in need of saving. Christianity, and some other faiths, is also missionary minded in nature. They are called upon in the New Testament to “spread the word”. If you want to grow your numbers and/or your income (i.e. Mormon church) then you are aggressive with missionaries and hunting for converts.

People are also very good at rationalizing their views and cherry picking data to force things to fit their emotionally driven beliefs. Look at conspiracy theorists who dismiss anything that contradicts them as “lies” and “propaganda” but their sources are never questioned.

No, that isn’t it

Well you were high so we can’t be sure about those numbers

How do we know your scale is right?

Gaming communities can be incredibly bad. Everyone else is a jerk or moron who wasn’t born knowing that doing X increases your DPS by 2.3% on alternate Tuesdays. DUH

If you truly understand a subject you like helping newbs, not insulting them. It is people who know just enough to sound like they do but are desperate to look like experts who are the biggest pricks.

Either that or you insult them for not knowing the answer already, tell them to google it (then why does this forum exist?) or get mad because they did know that their question had already been answered in a forum post in 2019.

Yup, they are only as good as their programming

The posting essentially says there is no risk than tosses out mercury and lead vapors which don’t exist in a HDD. Then it talks about the lead in solder. You’d have to vigorously rub and handle the solder on circuit boards to get any amount on your skin worth worrying about and then you just wash your hands. That risk is true of all boards that don’t use low or lead free solder. The whole comment is very hypothetical.

If your hard drive has dust it would’ve failed a long time ago. They are designed to be extremely clean. The head is like a 747 flying an inch above the ground. It sounds like an urban myth to scare people.

I used to collect AOL cds. I had a stack a few feet high. I was going to make some sort of artwork out of them.

If you look at history it takes more than this. I doubt people would go to war over illegal immigrants.

I’m not going to try to explain how to use Linux to my wife unless I get a salary for it.

He pushed the whole “the government is the enemy” mentality which has made it almost impossible to have national healthcare among other things. The republicans also jumped into bed with Christian fundamentalists at this point and the NRA went from being for gun regulations to no regulations. It was a continuation of the backlash against the 60s that started with Nixon.

Once they have all been eliminated, then and only then, will your feelings go away.

Guess I needed this “/s”
