He might also want it for natural resources. Curiously it seems like the main reason is simply that he wants it for his ego though. I think he realizes he's getting old and is concerned about his legacy, which he thinks will be improved by expanding the US.

Yay!

Turn-based? That's unexpected, but I'm definitely interested.

They recently improved comment threads by making (shallow?) trees possible, but if the thread is long, you can collapse it until you've expanded it fully (I think?), so all in all ±0?

I haven't had that yet, but sounds like YouTube alright. The last change on YouTube I've liked without reservation is when they reverted the horrible new UI. The last actual change I've liked is, I think, when they introduced comment threads a million years ago. Nothing else has been good.

I'm jealous every time I see your gorgeous rack... and I'm not sure if I'm more so because of the rack itself or you having the space for it.

Shall we discuss the radian next? :)

Following you always seems to be a ride. It's just a question of what kind of a ride it is.

...This might have been my example for too long movies. Even after watching just one LotR movie, I'm glad it's over, because I feel fatigued from watching it despite enjoying it a lot. Then again, movies aren't my go-to medium, so perhaps my tolerance for them is lower.

I also like GOG and achievements (not a huge achievement hunter though), but GOG Galaxy isn't available on Linux, and I don't think there's any way to get achievements for GOG besides Galaxy. This isn't going to be a blocker if Windows gets bad enough, but it's an additional annoyance for sure.

I think I'm fairly well aware of the current situation. Anticheat isn't much of a problem for me, because I don't play online a lot. However, I've checked ProtonDB, and it seems that some of the games I care about might have issues.

As a gamer, I still find it somewhat uncomfortable to do, but I just might when switching to Windows 12 would be effectively forced upon me. For non-gaming needs, switching to Linux (i.e. my laptop, at work) has been easier.

I'm contemplating creating a reminder for myself to reply to this in a few years. If there was ever a post do to this for, it's this one.

I suspect my imagination isn't good enough to correctly guess what this is... but it is good enough to have a guess anyway, correct or not.

And this is regardless of whether you're going to use these languages. Learning different kinds of languages really widens your horizons and enables you to think differently - and who knows, maybe it'll land you a job too at some point.

Probably not, unless job prospects are looking favourable for C. Usually you'd want to pick something else first. After a bit of experience, when you're not a new developer anymore however? Absolutely! I think learning different kinds of languages is valuable, and I'd recommend learning Haskell too.

I guess that's one way to exit vim.
