  • What the actual heck, I have the exact same childhood NOPE memory of a pool with an orca mosaic. You're the first one to validate that, none of my family remembers! I think I might have almost drowned in there too.

  • I don't think you're entirely wrong, but I think maybe you downplay the importance of a good team dynamic when choosing people. I'd take someone less skilled over a highly skilled but unapproachable jerk for the long-term health of the crew. In that way, I don't think it's bad to favor the more likable one depending on how we're defining likable, and I don't think that makes it simply a popularity contest either.

  • This is not a thing because that's not a concern for developers. They make the software in whatever way they think it looks best, maybe add some accessibility options, and leave the fine-tuning to the user's display options. It's strange to me that you interpret this as an ideology issue for developers.

  • I like it for OneNote specifically; in a uni setting it's nice to have a stylus handy to jot margin notes or drawings alongside my text input, do a non-rectangular crop on a photo I just took of the lecture slide to put in notes, or just idly doodle. Stylus pens are super smooth and gives me good brain feel when I do swooshy doodles.

  • Just start searching with your engine of choice. Here is an article that might get you started. I used Mint and it's quite true to the Windows experience in my opinion. For your second question, the answer is maybe! Sometimes it works well in a WINdows Emulator, sometimes there's a good replacement. Diving into tech forum threads is part of the process!

  • Here's the interesting bit for me:

    To begin verification, you must have at least ten gold and 100 karma, according to the code.

    and

    users will have to maintain a certain level of activity and accumulate a designated amount of gold and karma each month to remain eligible for payouts

    Sounds like an attempt to drive up reddit gold sales? I deleted my account and still had that one free gold award from forever ago. Feels like the easiest way to do this is have a second account that buys gold and awards it to the primary earning account to meet the minimum.

    Quick maffs $20 to get 10 gold awards, which also gives the recipient 1000 coins (worth 2 gold awards for another account, so you'll probably see subs devoted to a black market for discounted gold awards for that accumulated coin) and 10 weeks of reddit premium. It honestly sounds like a very complicated subscription.

  • My take from an outside perspective: banning the one account seems like the sensible approach toward the goal of sending a stern message to the creator and establishing an early precedent -- one account is bad enough, imagine more. I think defederating should only be used if the creator doesn't take the hint and creates another account.
