Fair enough, let me know when you want to provide more opinions you don't want to discuss :)
yamazakiwi··on Android XR
You don't have to make a statement about ranking them when you said "the last thing you'd want". Figure of speech or not. It seems telling to the reader when discussing XR to leave them out, that's all. You could have just clarified and called it a day.

The fact that we're being so pedantic now instead of discussing our actual opinion is making me more certain that your purpose was not to have a discussion so I'll shutup now.

They inferred it because those companies were left out of your category of the "last thing you'd want". Anything left out would be categorized as "not the last thing you'd want" when there are parallels in the omitted yet well known offerings.

I don't know about you but I'm paid to sit in a chair for 12 hours a day.
yamazakiwi··on Every board game rulebook is awful [pdf]
Me and my friends started comming recently on some harder monsters in Monster Hunter but it's completely unnecessary as you said. Stuff like, "mount finisher" "setting trap", all stuff that you could visually observe. The main benefit has been I'm much more cognizant of my teammates than I ever was in the past. Now I actually look at what my teammates are doing instead of just tunneling on myself.

It's easy to see why many commentators on a US company's forum would make said assumptions.
yamazakiwi··on Only buy a magnetic keyboard for gaming
Your mouse not positioned laterally to the keyboard is atypical for gaming.

They are not awful, you just don't like them for your use cases.
yamazakiwi··on Only buy a magnetic keyboard for gaming
It is popular in PC FPS gaming to have a smaller keyboard so you can go more distance to the left with your mouse hand before running out of space. Have you never hit your keyboard with your mouse? More likely to happen when playing with lower DPI/sensitivity. I don't use numpad for anything while gaming so it's extra space I'm happy to get rid of. All these people saying they don't get why someone would want a smaller keyboard are probably confused because they don't play FPS or games that require mouse space beyond their 6 inch mousepad.

Some gamers even position their keyboards at very harsh angles or nigh perpendicular to their body all just to make more space.

yamazakiwi··on Bluesky is ushering in a pick-your-own algorithm era of social media
The tool might be more sophisticated than you need but following only a few people is totally fine and should not be overrun with algo content just to promote ad revenue to the platform owner. Maybe the people you want to follow are only on said platform so you are required to consume it that way.
yamazakiwi··on Scientific American's departing editor and the politicization of science
I rarely see sympathy from anyone, it's easier to be staunch and tapped out unfortunately.
yamazakiwi··on Scientific American's departing editor and the politicization of science
I'm being sarcastic but also agree.
yamazakiwi··on Scientific American's departing editor and the politicization of science
I want to live my life outside of superficial constructs like religions. I do not want to be forced to accommodate people who believe religion is relevant. The current political climate is challenging for areligious people.

I don't get to have this opinion because conservatives are censoring me and are always shoving religion down my throat.

Imitating conservative argument style is fun, you get to tell how you feel but then still get defensive when people say you hate other people based on their identity.

It doesn't matter that we increase the birthrate if quality of life is continually degrading.
yamazakiwi··on Germans decry influence of English as 'idiot's apostrophe' gets approval
That is incorrect.

The amount of fruit and consistency is more important to the outcome of a marmalade or jam then the use of citrus fruits. A lot of recipe sites are flat out wrong about this and state a marmalade has to contain citrus, or worse, Spanish Citrus. If I make orange Jam is it automatically Marmalade? If Korea puts corn on Pizza, is it not Pizza anymore? So as I stated, yes it is about how countries and people deem food authentic.

People who think any food has to be made one way because that's the way it was made "originally" are missing out on potential. Most food origin stories are also stretched truths, lies, or even historically selective for political reasons.

I don't use it out of principle.
yamazakiwi··on Germans decry influence of English as 'idiot's apostrophe' gets approval
Of course but it doesn't have to be. There are tons of fruits that make great tasting marmalades. After watching the Mexican episode of British Bake Off I don't care about their opinions on food authenticity.

Why would you not be able to make it out of Strawberries? You can make Marmalade with any fruit. :)

The opposite, as it is a privilege to work somewhere without externalities.
