FFS, this is quoting you:

One in every 20 computers. Not too shabby.

Then someone clarified.

No, Statcounter measures usage; not machines.

Then you derped back with

So the headline is a lie and it’s not 5% of market share?

Then I made the mistake of indulging.

Go fuck off.

In most places I've lived for the past 40 years, I could just walk to the store. I have now four to choose from, all within 10 minutes of walking, and the city center is about an hour away. Ther are also bicycles.

By having groceries, you can make food yourself, at home. You can do this many times, for each time you actually have to get groceries.

As for eating at a restaurant, collective transport ranges from obvious to absolutely necessary, depending on the population density. When my family go out to eat, it's a lot more convenient to hop on a bus or tram to the city center. It takes half the time, if you consider parking, it's cheaper, and you can have a drink or two as well. You also get to engage with each other, during transit.

In the less car-retarded world, food delivery is also easier to do with non-car methods.

In any case, and because I know the kind of responses people reply with... Please don't. I just gave you some examples and a different perspective. Americans are culturally dumb as shit when it comes to considering the obviously better alternatives, in so many different aspects, and I don't really care all that much.

Good question. How about you share what it is you don't understand? "Market share" depends on some understanding. If it was "Linux machines", there are more than 100 for every 1 of windows or macs. But fewer than one out of these 100 has a monitor, mouse and keyboard connected to them.

Ps: feel free to fuck off, if you're going to be rude and ignorant.

slightly more efficient that each person driving to the restaurant

Of course. But the correct solution here doesn't require any individuals driving.

I don't see what the big deal is. This is just a Roman roof shape.

Until proven otherwise, I assume either ignorance or malicious intentions by those who want to rename these "problematic" terms. It does nothing to improve the actual issues.

The false pretense of having done something, is worse than doing nothing. It's just noise.

To be clear: I don't mind the changing of terms. I'm too old to care about trivial stuff like main vs master. But if the reasoning for such a change is dumb and potentially harmful, you've lost my respect.

Why did he think that? Also, why have no one mentioned Valérian and Laureline? It is much easier to argue was more than just a little inspiration?

The comic was published in 1967, ten years before star wars.

I remember seeing more side by side comparison somewhere, and the list of passing coincidences was very long. I think it was this one

To anyone wondering. Sauna boats are not common in Norway. It's not "a thing". Please don't add it to the list of Scandinavian stereotypes 🙏

Can you point to a way in which the actions, policies, or rhetoric of the Israeli government meaningfully differs from those of Novemberpogrome-era (Krystalnacht-era) Nazi Germany?

They spoke German.

Never trust cloud solutions when it isn't your cloud.

The more accurate description is "Israel's war against Palestine". And, given the power difference and stated goals: "Israel's ongoing genocide of Palestine".

And if you think that it sounds a bit too disturbing, just try to imagine a pile of 4000 children. It might ruin your day.

Could "Billionaire X's latest stupid remark" not be considered "technology" news?
