  • saying that culturally the south is 20-30 minutes outside of a population center is entirely inaccurate

    I dont know if there is any baggage on the idea of “Southern culture” im missing, but from what i can tell, its accurate.

    People in (at least) the poorer suburbs still make (what got labeled as) “trash food”, like casorols.

    In the country but also the wooded suburbs, deep red households put up large banners supporting trump.

    The TV companies broadcast old reruns of westerns for people like my grandma in the small towns.

    Go 20 to 30 miles from the heart of the major cities and you risk finding farmland.

    you don’t have to use it.

    On windows, “its optional” means somthing diffrent than on linux.

    On linux a feature like this is just a command or a toggle switch in the settings.

    Its admittedly a neat concept, I use OBS for this verry reason, to capture moments where I didnt think to press “record” beforehand. An (unprivlaged, no internet access) userland foreground app with “start/stop/delete past hour” buttons. All from the easy to understand from a glance taskbar icon.

    Sadly, we only got a few of these safety features later on because like software, people will also refuse to buy a car without seatbelts or working breaks.

    People are saying “no!” now so they dont have to say no later when its much harder to say no (when its in your home, on your pc). Microsoft plugs their ears when their customers say “it’s unsafe” and “no means no” because they want you to partake in this transaction with them reguardless of if you do.
