Fesshole 🧻At university I dated an American lad who was studying in England. Staying at his place once, I went to make a cup of tea in the morning but couldn't find his kettle. He gave me a demonstration of how he made tea in the microwave. Dumped.

@cks I feel like this is a common lived experience for anyone with a sufficiently eccentric "don't cite the deep magic to me, witch" style X11 environment

@jwz The craziest part is that I'm sure there are strong proponents who look back on X (and probably a lot of things) through the UHH polemic lens and are proud of how this time it's right, it'll work, and we won't just have all of those problems again. It's like talking to someone who experiences a different set of physical laws and trying to relate
@hailey Once a ticket gets to "Fix Understood" you're pretty much on the glide slope!
