In astrophysics it's even easier.

Hydrogen, other.

Chemistry fans: And obscurium is really cool, because it has three stable isotopes right near each other, but it's not really useful for anything...

Chemists: why are my results so weird? Oh, right - hydrogen can have a neutron sometimes.

My Linux machine has 64 GiB of RAM, which is like 128 GiB of Mac RAM. It's still not enough

I'm mad that Android is developed behind closed doors and then dumped out there for us rather than being developed in the open.

Super weird. My laptop had a new enough GPU that Windows didn't even have proper drivers yet and it worked out of the box on Linux.

Android doesn't count, but what about my PinePhone?

Hand them to zoomers as 3d printed save buttons

You know what else would be awesome? "Update, reboot, and (just this once) automatically login"

It would be super useful for when I'm alone at home working but want to do updates over my lunch break.

My sister overcools her house so she doesn't have to run the AC at night (but she lives somewhere hot enough for that to matter - I can just open windows most nights).

I charge my electric car on it (which I guess is stacking a bunch of batteries). I'll also cook during that time to use the energy on that.

No, I can't defend a strawman you're posing. But I don't have to. I only have to defend my own positions, which are:

  1. Under the current system in the US, voting third party is at best ineffective, but often actively harmful.
  2. People who advocate for people on the left voting third-party are either ignorant of the fact that said actions make a fascist takeover of the US more likely or, worse yet, aware of that fact. Either way, their actions are tantamount to advocating for fascism, whether they're an intentional bad actor or not.

Your comment above implies that by supporting people's right to vote, I give up my right to advocate for how they should vote, which is part of where the strawman comes from. I can defend their right to vote whilst also saying that voting certain ways are stupid or harmful. I never have to say "good on ya for making a terrible decision."

Already ahead of you on that as an active member of my state's ranked choice voting initiative.
