I get conventional mail marked up like it is from the manufacturer claiming my warranty is expiring.

With the added fun bonus that all the things they claim to cover are engine related, and my car is an EV with no engine.

You could put a big flashlight up in place of the sun and it would be better, or something. I dunno lol

I would hope the whole thing is a joke in general.

“The sun gives us light when it’s ‘already’ bright” is where the real logic breaks down. “I don’t need <thing> because I already have <benefit from thing>” is circular logic.

So of course we wouldn’t have sunlight at night without the sun. but we also wouldn’t have sunlight at night without the moon.

Whether we want to call it “more useful” than the sun… it is just as useful as the sun at night. We need both of them for the system to work. I was just trying to snarkily emphasize that we shouldn’t downplay the moon because it is “just” reflecting sunlight.

A typo is when you slip up and type/get something wrong because you’re moving too fast to pay attention.

Spelling a word wrong because you don’t know how to spell it isn’t a typo. This person doesn’t strike me as an intellectual that knows complex spellings like “afraid”

I know nothing about this specific person. But the American Republican party is on a bit of a hypocritical purity crusade. They claim that porn is bad. They are the ones getting all worked up about other peoples sexual life, because it somehow affects the sanctity of their marriage.

So this article is pointing out his hypocrisy. He is doing something wrong by his own standards, so what room does he have to try to make laws about his stupid beliefs when he doesn’t even follow them himself.

Wine/proton are great but not perfect. Lots of games don’t work through proton. “Compatible with linux” can mean doing the work to make sure your windows build is proton friendly and will work on Linux. It doesn’t have to mean Linux native.

Because otherwise if you have too many small letters in a row it stops looking like a plural and more like a misspelled word. Because capitalization differences you can make more sense of As but not so much as.

But if the moon wasn’t there, there would be no light reflected. Doesn’t matter the source, we have light at night because of the moon
