I mean Thunderbird on windows always looked like it could work on windows 95 so I’m not surprised

nah, i realize it’s popular around here but it still acknowledges the rebrand. I just don’t want to.

it’s not though. only musk glazers make an effort to call it x. everyone either says twitter or does something with parentheses. if it were currently known as x people would’ve stopped mentioning both names. it’s been more than a year now. complete failure of a rebrand IMO.

x (formerly twitter)… you mean twitter (desperately x)

even elon calls it twitter dude why are people still pretending they have to honor a rebrand of a company by a dipshit who deadnames and misgenders his own kid.

yeah that has nothing to do with the workers… that person just wanted to get through the queue faster and were concern trolling to make themselves not sound like an impatient toddler.

idk why the workers would feel any way about one person ordering 200 nuggets vs 10 people ordering 20 each.

lol ubisoft publishes a good game once in a blue moon and when they do they disband the team that does it. seriously these motherfuckers need to be jailed.

not being a hunk, for starters… but also it looks uncomfortable

yes it would. we always have redundancy, especially in speech. also we’re not robots, technicality doesn’t matter, how we communicate does. do you get confused when people say something like “that’s all behind us now” meaning the past? do you literally turn around and argue that there’s nothing really behind you and they should have said in the past instead?

you have to have never seen a steering wheel to not understand which side of the circle is being referenced. it’s always the top. who would even reference anything else and why.

“turn it right”

“which part???”

“the middle of course, you absolute alien”

holy shit I should totally call my apartment a museum so I can steal anything I want

and it’s on a quest for a bell

oh yeah there was all that bs too. oh the toolbars!

did you use the internet in '92 or something? because even in mid to late 90s the ads were so cancerous that pop-up blocking eventually became a standard feature of browsers before ad blockers were even a thing.

edit: I just realized I’ve been gushing about affinity for a while. sorry you can just read the next two paragraphs if you just want what’s relevant to you and not “hey you know what else is cool about affinity?”

yeah i haven’t used inkscape but designer 2.x blew my mind. I had a job recently to change the design and my only source was a 2-page PDF. I opened it in illustrator and it just insisted on outlining all text from page 1 and keeping all text for page 2 but in different text objects for every line.

tried it in affinity designer, I noticed there’s an option that says “Favor editable text over fidelity”. voila. both pages with selectable text in a single text box per column. if I don’t select the option it does the line by line separate text object thing but for both pages as well, so it’s still better than illustrator. idk why illustrator insists that the first page cannot possibly be interpreted as text.

also corner rounding, offsetting paths and adding transparency gradients being nondestructive tools rather than the tedious and/or destructive methods in illustrator is enough for me to stick to affinity.

the only things I’m missing is the repeat action command and the view bleeds toggle, which is mind blowing that it didn’t exist in designer. there are dumb workarounds but I don’t like that. also more controls over swatches would be nice, like why don’t they have folders…

still, other than these maybe three things which are not deal breakers for me, I prefer affinity pretty close to 100% of the time now. it’s faster too, and being able to switch personas for most use cases rather than launching Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator at the same time is a godsend.

they also innovated and came up with the patented new concept called Consistency™. apparently if you’re one company that publishes several pieces of software, you can just make it so the same exact tools work the same exact way across all your software. genius!

meanwhile adobe doesn’t even have a standard drop shadow effect for all adobe products.

this doesn’t at all follow my comment so I assume you replied by accident. you’re just airing grievances, which is your right, but it’s a non sequitur.

literally no one lumped you in. you’re being weird right now

also no one here said women can’t rape men, which incidentally is a patriarchal concept to begin with. so consider it fixed. men do it more. significantly more.

those cases are not relevant here. the data we’re talking about is not skewed. they cover all these other situations independent of municipality. also these are not numbers on reported cases (they’re included in the study) but estimated actual numbers.

wow, your argument really becomes impenetrable once you concede to "unless"es and “if” and "should"s.

there is an extended timeline. it’s called lifetime. and it tells a different story.

about the stats: thanks for finding it, I mixed the numbers and was looking for the 1.6% … anyway, looking for lifetime numbers, if you compare women who have been raped vs men who were raped and made to penetrate combined, the numbers add up to 19.3% of women vs 1.7+6.7 = 8.4% of men assuming zero overlap. that’s still more than double the rate of men.

in the same section for sexual violence other than rape, women’s rates nearly double men’s in lifetime numbers. again for some reason much closer in the 12 months preceding.

sexual coercion: 12.5% vs 5.8% lifetime (more than double) and not that close in the 12 months as other categories, 2% vs 1.3% (1.5x approximately)

etc etc…

I don’t know what the fuck happened between 2010 and 2011 but the numbers for that year do not reflect lifetime experiences of people at all. it makes no sense to disregard the extended timeline and instead use the snippet to extrapolate.

it’s funny that affinity designer can parse PDFs much better than illustrator
