When I ran Cinnamon Mint I definitely did this. Looked like Windows 7.

While it is certainly not the only reason, government intervention via zoning laws is definitely a factor in the house crisis. If mixed use zoning was more universally a thing, then that would be the government not intervening in the housing market.

None is specifically called out as being an option.

Mac is my favorite software development OS. Linux has too many issues with related software like Slack and doesn't have good Office software. Windows on the other hand is fucking dog shit for development.

True. Updated the last sentence of my comment slightly. I suspect most people who use the Internet are not basement dwelling trolls and therefore probably are typically in brighter surroundings.

The majority of the research out there does not support dark mode being better for your eyes. Generally, you only experience additional eye strain from a screen when the brightness of the screen is different from surrounding light conditions. So if you want to reduce strain, use brighter screens in bright daylight and dimmer screens in a dark room.

However, the research also indicates that it is easier for most people to focus on text when it is dark text on a light background. This is especially true for people with astigmatism (about 1/3 of Americans).

So, kindly leave your default dark mode off my sites. Thanks.

Make sure the toilet is too tall for most people too.

They only accuse Apple of being backwards in this case because for anyone else to use it they have to pay a licensing fee to Apple. The new standard (USB-C) is free to add to your device.

Yeah, this for sure. Every major carrier has super cheapo smart phone options.

Just look at your watch and give them the exact time until midnight. Problem solved and more menacing.

You know, the post that you're responding to could just be highlighting a parallel rather than being a criticism of the OP.
