I think this is a needlessly combative stance. If your goal is to get new users to engage with the development side, calling their criticism “bitching” isn’t going to do that. Most software users don’t have the first clue about software development and wouldn’t even know what exactly to say if given a suggestion form. The best feedback a lot of new users can give is “the user experience is clunky and unintuitive”.

Plenty of hip hop has all sorts of accents. Also, there’s no such thing as “no accent”.

Shucks that was clever

Just say you made a French variation of it.

Don’t get tennis elbow patting yourself on the back. Your individual actions won’t matter unless you can bring industry with you. The best way to do that is to help people gain class consciousness. The best way to do that is by not considering your individual actions as relevant.

I worked in a factory for a bit. HR designated people as “heavies” or not which meant they could lift 50 pounds. No test or medical exam was done to create this distinction. All men were marked heavies and all women weren’t. It was a way for them to discriminate job roles based on gender without saying it.

Boosts are normal. This specific boost was noteworthy because it had a one-way texture so Olof could see the other team but they couldn’t see him.

I miss being able to play Rivals of Aether 2 with a GameCube controller. My to my knowledge there’s no good way to connect one on Linux.

My mom met a non-binary friend of mine and their girlfriend. My NB friend comes across as a masculine muscular bro dude but their NB and pan. I mentioned to my mom later that they were NB and she was like “but he has a girlfriend…?” I had to walk her through “you’ve heard of men being attracted to women, and women being attracted to women. Well Zack is neither and is attracted to women.” In her mind, gender and sexuality were like, part of the same thing. Which I guess they are but not the way she thought.
