I wish I could make YouTube “experience suboptimal revenue” in retaliation, but sadly I can’t block more than 100% of ads.

I can’t think of an application where a nail is better. Sure, sometimes a nail will do and there’s no need to use a screw, but that doesn’t make the nail better, just cheaper.

Screws genuinely are better fasteners than nails, though…

I have an HP LaserJet 6L from like 1997. I recently managed to get it working reliably after decades of struggle and frustration that drove me to tears on occasion. So yes, as far as I can tell they’ve always been this bad.

Yes, and the person you replied to gave an example of one. What’s the problem?

Because a lot of people do use Photoshop for painting, and Adobe does recognize that and implement some painting tools into Photoshop.

I have rss feeds that’ll let me know if any of the coins I own spike for some reason.

Ooh, that sounds handy! Mind if I ask where those feeds are coming from?

Note the pattern: a willingness to ignore the details of what could go wrong, YOLO it and just test it out, and the assumption that if nothing goes wrong when you do that, it means that everything is fine and nothing else could possibly go wrong.

Did anyone else reading this bit immediately think of that other rich idiot that died in his ridiculous submarine?

Technically yes, but in practice any gains are going to be counteracted if not outweighed by the electromagnetic noise from the fan’s motor. To avoid that interference and see any real improvement in your signal strength, you’d have to either use a fan with a shielded motor (the last such model went out of production in 1953, so good luck finding one) or a fan driven by an alternative power source such as a water wheel.

So in other words, they can afford to pay damages for it. Make them pay!

Do you get more science or less if you use a baseball bat?
