Unless you have a waxed mustache, dress mostly in sharp well tailored cloths, preferably with a vest. And have a lexicon the size of the east alantatic with a grasp of grammar to match.
If you don’t fix the visual idea of the words you speak people will almost always assume your untrustworthy, up to something, lying or in some other way fake.
Our words as much as our appearance need to match both ourselves and those around us to be seen as trustworthy.
It’s one of those small things you don’t really thing about.

It’s trivial in the grand scheme of things to release a localhost server to let games run offline. For the amount of work that goes into games already this is a drop in the bucket.
It’s also trivial if you know it’s a requirement at the start of the project.
So even if it does nothing for games out now, if it makes it a requirement going forward that alone would be a massive success all by it self.

Iv always been confused over why he was ever in a meeting with executives when his official job position was QA tester. Not lead, not supervisor. He was a grunt worker.

Even Hitler out of context sounds good. Context is paramount. Never trust a good speaker with the extra time to edit himself in post with out the context of the original or their history.

LTT likely because Linus is extremely out of touch. Like comically so.
Game nexus likely because Steve is more focused on other sectors of the industry. He’s a hardware and news guy more then a “gaming” channel in the strictest of sense. So it just very likely slipped his radar.

Nothing brings the internet together like hating a sexist self centered egotistical narcissist.
Seriously pirate has been an asshole for like 20 years. He’s been banned from furry communities, kicked out of second life communities, rejected from eve communities.
Now people are realizing how much of a scum bag he is in the streamer community.
The only upside his asshole self centeredness has draw crazy attention to the partition.

- Comment on Owners of laptops with very cheap aftermarket batteries, is it worth the discount? 2 weeks ago:
Generally every aftermarket battery iv bought has been like this. Shorter stated lifespan, but perfectly functional and frequently lasts just as long as OEM.
Just go with a private company that specializes in the manufacture of the laptop in question and spend a bit more.
Rare to get a crap battery unless your trying to save every cent possible.

Everyone is a edgy teenager well into their 20s.
As the joke goes, if your 18 your a child, if your 23 your a teenager, if your 29 your 30, if your 34 your late 20s, if your 35 your 35.
Most people in most western worlds don’t even get to start being an adult till they are well into their mid 20s, which means they only START growing up at like 24-25.
It takes years to actually mature. Anyone who understand this has never worked a job that has frequent fresh to the workforce people cycling though frequently.

I’m sorry that you have a physical and painful response to other humans who prefer the opposite sex.
That sounds like a horribly crippling disability.
That or an uncalled for bigoted insult to others based on sexual preferences.
You don’t have to insult entire classes of people to make your point. Be a better person, and don’t perpetuate hate just because you feel it’s ok to attack people for being straight.
- Comment on It is what it is 2 weeks ago:
It actually had bullet points below the initial warning that said websites could track you.
The big warning on top was fine before. It could have been worded better and the update made its wording better. But below that warning it’s always had bullet points over examples of what it would and would not save in website tracking as well as browser data from searches could be saved. Sure, they didn’t explicitly say Google would save your data, but Google being a web browser falls under that bullet point and Google being a website falls under that bullet point. A website falls under that bullet point.
This is people not being able to understand what words mean.
- Comment on It is what it is 2 weeks ago:
From day one it is explicitly said it doesn’t do that. It’s literally always been on the main blank tab page right below the warning over what it does.
How they even had to update the wording because of all of this because people didn’t bother to read three bullet points
- Comment on It is what it is 2 weeks ago:
To be fair nothing was stolen, the lawyers even admitted as much.
This is a user error problem caused by the moron in a hurry problem.
The warning on incognito mode both before and after the change was very explicit that it was local only. It was intended for people sharing a computer, not for privacy to anything you searched, external websites, etc
Below the warning even had examples over exactly what was and was not saved with it explicitly saying that external websites would be able to track and save your data including Google.
The change was to add that warning list to the initial warning itself because Google had assumed people would read the entire page. They did not.
Which means that those morons in a hurry who only skimmed misunderstood what incognito mode was for. Did not read the use case, the warning, the TOs, the manual, or any other information provided both explicitly or implicitly.
Hell even parted the argument of the lawyers was that this is a user issue and that Google had a responsibility to prevent people who were ignorant or in a hurry from misunderstanding. And while they made a good faith effort, it could have been better. Google being the large company is taking the fall for this more than anything but it is at the end of the day a user issue.
- Comment on It is what it is 2 weeks ago:
It IS local incognito. By definition the name is accurate.
The wording on the warning both BEFORE AND AFTER the change says explicitly websites you visit, and anything external WILL still record and track you.
It said BEFORE AND AFTER that ONLY local things such as history omor cookies arnt saved.
It is 100% incognito. For the local browser. It warms BEFORE AND AFTER that it’s not real privacy.
They changed the wording basically from an assumption people will read the examples given on the SAME page as the warning. To having the examples built into the warning.
Basically they assumed their users could read. They were wrong, people can’t read. So they have to scream it now.
- Comment on It is what it is 2 weeks ago:
Even before that change it’s explicit about it… They basically went from “this isn’t real privacy” to screaming at your face cause apparently people can’t read and are idiots.
This is a case of users misusing a tool and not reading. At best you can argue that google should have assumed it’s users were stupid beyond measure from the start and had a tos so verbose that only someone missing a brain could misunderstand the point of the tool.
- Comment on It is what it is 2 weeks ago:
It’s as far as I remember literally always said it’s basically just turning off local history, and not for true privacy. The wording has changed over the years and frankly only become more explicated and clear about that fact.
This is a rare case of google NOT being the problem here. People are misusing a tool that has always been honest about itself.
