Because vampires can’t cross boundaries without permission, the answer is no, they can’t come in until allowed in.

It’s party marketing, yes, but it’s also Quality of Life features. Windows either has a setting you can find by farting around in the settings or it doesn’t work. Linux can have every setting, but most of them need CLI work, research, and the wherewithal to unfuck whatever you fucked.

If CLIs could be listed, explained, and parametrized in a simple GUI, it would make learning them 10x easier. More default scripts for unfucking things would also help (like Window’s old troubleshooting wizards). More status checking and better error messages, so one can tell when something is broken without manually inspecting every module.

It’s gotten much better, and will certainly improve by necessity if more average users pick Linux up, but it’s a step that has to be taken before Linux sees a major marketshare, regardless of marketing.

Ah, so it’s the IRS that was the wrong target. I see.

Are we?

GE made nearly 7 billion dollars in 2023. Do you know how much tax they paid? They didn’t, they got a refund of over 400 million dollars.

Tell me again that tax evasion isn’t a real problem.

Well yes, that makes sense and all, but it’s not nearly as fun as saying mojo is directly controlled by heart health. Or that cancer causes cell phones, or that people named Killian cause air bag recalls. They’re obviously wrong and ridiculous, and that’s funny.

This does insinuate that a high-risk of heart attack causes sexlessness.

Better stock up on advil.

And the alternative to doing that is what? This whole story was started because of windows and windows antivirus being inflexible.

Yeah the pointer is handled differently so the old packages don’t work, and I couldn’t find an updated package possibly because no one has bothered to write one yet. It’s perfectly understandable and not an issue whatsoever.

Trackpads are handled much better though.

My very first experience with Linux last year was switching from X to Wayland to get my touchpad to work properly. The only thing I’ve noticed that doesn’t work on Wayland is that mouse following cat.

Those are supposed to be part of the spoiler tag, but many lemmy clients don’t support those yet.

Even py.game would be better at this point…

Ladux? Linda? +Linux, pronounced “Add a Linux” -> Ada Linux? LinLace?

Maybe the mark is missed for me because no iPhone in existence is marketed as a standard everyday driver. They’re always various levels of “luxury” or “pro”. More comparable to a Lexus or a Lincoln.

It’s also fixed one of the flaws of the original by increasing the time difference. 2005-2024 is a meaningful difference in the market, but 2021-2024 isn’t (unless Apple harped on 2024 specifically for some reason).

A more accurate comparison and one that exposes the weaknesses of the original might be a 2024 BMW vs a 2023 Bugatti, a new upper class car vs a recent top class supercar. Fewer of that argument’s flaws are due to exaggeration and more are presented in the original, which would be a better exposition of truth to satirize with.

I agree, this is poor satire.

You could set up your own cloud, yes, but you could also use only ‘client’ devices, without ever having an off-site computer in the network.

I’ve been using Blokada, and higher in the comments is Mullivad.

Premium only gets a third of the ads anyway. In-video sponsors, Shorts, News, Shopping, Irrelevant search results, Memberships, Data Tracking, and Hidden Dislikes are all still present.

If you want to edit macros in Excel, you’ll see a Vista window. Vista! In 2024!

That is one big advantage of being divine, yes.

Even then, curses can complicate matters, and a pantheon without an applicable power will need to endeavor to make a change.

A Greater Foe could argue for a saving throw, especially if it’s against their will. A Gift might not even be enough if the deformity affects their divine soul, which sounds like a good quest hook.

I think the refractory period is a hormone response and not tissue damage/fatigue. It could be ‘healed’ in a similar way horniness, PMS, pregnancy, tiredness (but not the need for sleep), hunger, and moods can be ‘healed’.

It could also be a peripheral autonomic feedback response, in which case it could be ‘healed’ in a similar way to suppressing automatic breathing, bowel movements, automatic reflexes, and possibly the fine tuning of balance.

Such a spell could porobably exist, alongside a suite of other weird spells that were likely developed first, like Calm Emotions or unnamed but almost guaranteed to exist contraceptive spells. Some debuff spells of a unique variety could be quite interesting too, with breathing suppression being the rare effect that would require an intelligence save.

A potion would probably be the cheaper option though; plain old erection juice should suffice.
