    My ex father in law would always always ALWAYS install random ass flash games / random sketchy software and bork their windows PC.
    He was always complaining about popups and his antivirus was always flagging a threat etc… they’d spend tons of money annually to have their computer fixed and he’d go right back to the same behavior.

    Anyway… I installed a dual boot setup with his windows and Linux mint.

    He bitched and complained about it… but he never had any actual issues. His complaint was it was different. He ran mint until he died like 5 years later.

    Honestly, if my exFIL can run Linux… anyone can.

    You’ve never had infants around other infants.

    We all have the same child. They all act the same behavior is the same… Patterns are the same Etc…

    Humans don’t really start to develop in different directions and speed until they are like 18 months old.

    Our coloring and physical features might not be the same… but the basic operating system and internals are all the same across humanity.

    Man… I got banned from a kink community sub because I edited my comment with a automagical editor…

    It replaced my text with gobbledygook and then was going to delete it…

    The mod came across the text said something to the extent of “this makes no sense” and banned me under their “because we can” rule.

    I sent the mod a message with links and an explanation… he came back with your original post is gone. So you are too.

    My reddit account is 14 years old…

    It bothered me for a while too… and still dones I guess since I’m here talking about it… but honestly mods are gonna mod… they are small people with a smidge of “power” you could have said hope “you folks have a great day!!” And gotten banned.

    It happens. Sucks tho

    If it provides me information I need… I’ll thank the poster.

    I’ve commented a thank you a literal decade after the helpful comment was made.

    When I was on reddit… If the thread was archived, I’d copy the link and send the person a message saying thanks. If it was very helpful.

    I don’t have a problem with it obviously. Back in the day being a thread necromancer was frowned upon. Now, it doesn’t bump the thread to the top of the forum, so who cares

    When I was 16 I worked at at Taco Bell. I watched an older fellow lose his God damned mind at the kid who made his burrito. He screamed at the kid for putting onions on his bean burrito. Screamed. Once he was done screaming he threw the oniony burrito across the counter at the kid. This was on a Sunday afternoon and dude was in his Sunday best.

    From then on I vowed to never be that guy. This was in 1996 I made $4.25 an hour and I assume the kid making the burrito made close to the same.

    Something that gives me comfort about that situation now is that dude is probably dead. So fuck him and his onions.
