Well, not always: Plural ‘they’ is a borrowing from Old Norse ca. 1200 AD, and the earliest attestation of singular ‘they’ is about a century later.
But, yeah, you’d think 700 years of continuous use would be enough to make it uncontroversial…

It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it’s just hidden in the cost of the device.
Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.
On the other side [Wayland] is buggy af.
I’ve been having the exact opposite problem since recently coming back to Linux after a long hiatus. For me, Wayland has been flawless, while anything x11 looks like somebody ran the screen through a shredder, discarded half the strips, and smooshed the rest back together.
I don’t know how to troubleshoot that. I don’t even know what to type in a search engine to get relevant results.
Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of hard drives speeding down the highway.
I’ve been having a good time with Heart of the Machine, in which you play as a nascent AI figuring out how to survive in a sprawling cyberpunk city.
First OS on a computer I personally owned? Windows 98. First Linux distro was Source Mage.
If not counting ownership, then Apple IIs at school and then slightly later my family got an Amstrad that was primarily a DOS machine, but could also boot (by switching floppies several times) to some sort of GUI.
That was actually Unix. Specifically the fsn file manager for IRIX.
There’s a Linux clone called fsv.
Or DOS Shell.
This is much prettier, though.
As far as any of those sites are concerned, I was born January first, [the earliest year they allow].
Pfft, catapults. A trebuchet can launch a 90kg advertisement over 300 meters.
He did specify a large 3D printer. So it might be 2 or even 3 feet in length.
I think TES NPCs have been reacting to clothing since Daggerfall. Back then it was just a disposition modifier based on the total value of what you were wearing, but still.
It’s been a while since I read Asimov, but I don’t remember the robots stuff being particularly serialized. Except for the Daneel books (The Caves of Steel, etc.) which should be read in publication order.
Oh, and Robots and Empire should probably be put off until you’ve read both the Daneel series and Foundation, at the very least.
It’s amazing how often things are similar to what they are.
maybe there can be spin-offs in this case
They haven’t said they intend to stop making D&D games. And every D&D crpg in the last 20-odd years (since Torment, I think) has been set in the Forgotten Realms. So it seems highly likely that future games will be loosely related to BG, just without that specific title.
I would love to see them bring back some of the weird old settings, like Dark Sun, Spelljammer, or even Dragonlance. But I’m not holding my breath.
Jojo Rabbit featured Jewish Maori Hitler and was very well received.
Oil is corrosive? Doesn’t it usually prevent steel from rusting?
It’s funny, I just switched to pulseaudio hoping it would fix some issues I’ve been having with pipewire. It did not.
Edit: I’m not on Mint, though, so best of luck.
