Idea: follow these guys around with a stereo playing Sam Hyde saying "Don't you feel silly? Don't you feel stupid? Don't you feel a little ashamed?" on repeat.
Yeah, I honest to God can't understand people willing to degrade themselves like that. I'd rather starve to death - but this is Liverpool, isn't there a huge demand for workers right now there in the UK? They could do literally anything else!
The 21:9 aspect ratio ones kinda make sense because they're so wide, but I can't imagine why I'd want one. Maybe if I was trying to build some sort of racing sim.
Oh I do: this is exactly the sort of pedantic argument that online forums were full of 20+ years ago. "It's 'GNU/Linux', not 'Linux'!" followed by an essay. "That's not 'free software', that's 'open source'!" followed by an essay. "It's 'the world wide web', not 'the internet'!" followed by an essay.
Rare to see this now, so I assume someone who still engages in it is from that era.
Well, you're not wrong there. That still happens, but it happens 140 characters at a time now, so now arguments are not only pedantic but oversimplified and meaningless. I actually miss the days of 10 paragraph long blog posts arguing over meaningless minutiae. It was funny and sometimes informative.
He's also not wrong though. Nobody under 40 calls it a flat screen TV.
I miss it too, kinda. The frequency at which it occurred sometimes became tiresome.
But in any case, I am close to that age cutoff and have used more CRTs than LCDs in my life; so I think I have earned the right to call it a "flat screen".
Not sure I'd be able to cope with the guilt of doing that for a wage, let alone the embarrassment.

As does this level of internet pedantry. But since we're being pedantic I'll point out that some LCDs are curved...
I used to have a curved monitor. I thought it was kind of gimmicky and replaced it after a few months.

I'm not sure you fully understand what the phrase "dates the speaker" means.

Joke's on them: Scousers can't read.
With how ineffective all the vaxxs and boosters have been this needs counter trolling with "Get a real jab!"

This is some cyberpunk level horror right here.
Eat at Joe's
Joe's went out of business during the lockdowns.
And Québec is going back into harsh lockdown tomorrow.
Illegal to visit friends or family, illegal to be outside between 10pm znd 5am, buisness closures, etc.
And yes, they are shutting down buisness where unvaccinated people were banned.
Something something "your vaccines don't do their job, and neither should you".
Oh look, synapse drones for the hive fleet.
