Well, kind of.

Linus needs to call out bad code, it's an important part of Linux's quality control. He doesn't need to tell people to kill themselves.

Edge re-installing itself after I’ve manually taken ownership of its files and purged them from the system 6 fucking times is what’s going to finally drive me to abandon windows and go full linux.

This sort of thing is why I finally switched my gaming PC - I was spending a bunch of time fighting to get Windows to do what I wanted that I figured I might as well be doing all that work on Linux.

At least Linux doesn't deliberately fight me. When I have to spend time getting Linux to do something it's because developers haven't gotten to it yet, not because corporate are enforcing their vision of how I'll use my system.

IIRC you can fit an ICE vehicle with an electric engine block heater which will use mains electricity to heat the water and circulate it through the engine. So you run an extension cord out to your car, leave it plugged in and turn it on half an hour before you leave.

Blinker subscription must've expired.

Don't you know? He's the main character. NPCs are supposed to move out of his way.

Tesla charging stations become ‘car graveyards’ as batteries die in subzero temperatures, abandoned cars left in the lot after cars wouldn’t charge (www.kansascity.com)

It sounded like a bunch of things combined: chargers going down, long queues at the working chargers as people take much longer than usual to charge, Uber drivers with rented EVs who don't really know about charging in the cold, etc.

So people who did do the right things and turned up at a charger with a warm battery ready to charge found themselves on the end of a five hour queue, and by the time they got a turn their cars were cold so they needed a long time on the charger to warm up before they can even start charging.

If you don't have enough working chargers at very low temperatures it can all just kind of snowball. That's not really an EV issue, it's an infrastructure problem. Strangely, you won't hear Faux News advocating for more chargers.

Remember to check that you didn't sign off with "Kind retards".

That's because their code quality is usually an absolute dumpster fire that only works if Wine exactly replicates obscure Windows bugs.

If you want to make a greybeard feel old, find a floppy disk in his cupboard, pick it up and ask him why he 3D printed a save icon.

Your distro is crap, mine is awesome.

What distro do I use? I don't see how that's relevant. No, I don't need to know what you use either.

Edit: we all secretly know that Hannah Montana Linux is the best.
