implying threads about other issues are less serious.

I never did this.

Why retaliate at all though?

How the fuck can you reprimand someone for not reporting an incident properly when they report it to their supervisor? The supervisor's responsibility at that point is to either inform the employee of the proper way to report it or report it on their behalf. If the report doesn't come through properly then the supervisor has failed to fulfill their duties, not the other employee.

You can believe both are bad and complain about both while acknowledging they're separate things.

I love this meme, but I feel like including TKL in the circle would be a little more fitting. I know I'm a little biased for being a TKL user, but they really aren't that esoteric. Every key is where you expect it. It just doesn't have a numpad.

One thing I can't help but see all the time is when someone walks to a group of people and singles one person out to talk and the pair say something like "give us the room" and everyone else leaves. Scenes similar to this happen all the time. Even in casual settings in movies. At some point I realized it's probably because it's easier to not have a second set for a private space just for a quick conversation. I can no longer unsee this.

Three of the last three games I've played have numbered levels, what the hell are you talking about? UFO 50 has them all over. Deep Rock Galactic Survivor has numbered floors and tiered levels of hazard. I played some random tower defense game on my phone that has numbered waves.

If you've ever used a lobster grip you aren't allowed to complain about weird grips on controllers on screen.

You can just say "zoom in, enhance" and everyone knows what you mean. It became such a meme that I think shows lean into it.

No it isn't at all. Image to image "AI" is totally different from "AI" that denies insurance claims. Different techniques, different effects, different everything. (Not saying either are okay or not, just that they're different.)

Well, the reason I don't view it as a euphemism is because it's typically associated with totalitarian regimes. The government "disappears" people. See here,

to cause (someone or something) to disappear:

a: to abduct and kill or imprison (someone, such as a political dissident) while withholding information about the person's fate

Her son was disappeared during Argentina's so-called 'Dirty War.'— Associated Press

"Disappearing" someone carries more weight than "abducting" someone.

I mean, technically most people with 401ks are buying the dip.
