Can we very briefly touch on the logical inconsistency of the "your body, my choice" crowd losing their shit over being told to wear face masks?

I don't expect them to see this inconsistency, but wanted to touch on it anyway.

Idk much about him, but I keep reading here and there that he was terrible. How did he manage to write Star Trek episodes if he was those things?

Nobody was busted, this is a clickbait post. Even the article just says they hired 2 cosplayers as entertainers, company never pretended that they were robots.

Their hat/house is literally trash though.

But this "unprocessed salami" can speak. Kinda puts them on level playing field.
Unless, of course, salami is voiced by Eddie Murphy, in which case it's an easy pick.

Scientific method is the best tool we have to achieve "pure objectivity and truth", but it's not perfect. The primary point of failure being application of it by extremely subjective creatures.

Here's a lifehack:

  1. Quickly switch your gender to woman.
  2. Womansplain her everything that needs to be explained.
  3. (optional) Undo the gender switch.

Ultimately, both of those commenters are annoying. Saying "I use Arch btw" is a useless self-serving statement that provides no benefit or information to the audience. But engaging with that message in the manner displayed is also pointless and stupid, even if the statement is correct.
The saving grace for the "Linux user" commenter is that they are self aware about being annoying, judging by their last comment. So hopefully they were just being ironic. Or rage baiting.

I use(d) Arch, btw.

"Time traveling sideways" is a genuinely interesting way of calling "traveling between parallel universes".

But for real, it's probably GPT-3.5, which is free anyway.

That Firefox logo was simplified, but not oversimplified. Even with a very small icon size you can still tell it's a fox that is (on?) fire. The Firefox Family logo is oversimplified, just being a swoosh, basically.
