You understand Sway is a passion project, distributed with source for free, and Windows is a comercial product licensed to you by a multinational corperation, right?

Dang bro, how much did you pay for it? I’d try to get my money back if I were you.

All good, I’ve been there too :)

My guy they (formerly I) know. After you’re hooked it feels out of your control. It becomes a mechanism your brain uses to alleviate stress or to relax. For me, for a long time, it helped me socialize, as I was alone in a new city, working a serving job. After it became a part of who I was, stopping wasn’t just ceasing buying and smoking cigarettes, it was now changing my identity and my personality.

I’ve quit now but I’m here to tell you its big ask of someone, and you shouldn’t judge folks who try and fail, but treat it as a vallient effort, and encourage them to try again.

I hear you though, having been a non smoker for a few years now I can smell it and I know what you mean. Just try to remember those are real people behind the addiction, and that for those of us old farts, some of us thought it made us look cool, and were led into it, despite the warnings.

Hey I’ve been there, and after reflecting on it, the truth is, (at least from my perspective), you don’t really, truely want it yet. Don’t take that as judgement, I’m certainly not in a place to judge, but I’ve kicked severeral multi-year addictions, and weed was one I had the pleasure of just “deciding to quit”. For me quitting weed came with breaking a friendship of the longtime smoking buddy I had, though after getting off of it and reflecting, I realize he was just using me as a convenient spot to store his weed. YMMV, but I think you got this, and hopefully my experience lends some light onto your difficulties with quitting.

Oh I thought that was an April fools joke! I’m pretty sure I saw something about it on April 1st on the homepage. Had no idea it was a real thing.

What the heck is archinstall?

Hey, I’m not disagreeing with you here, but keep in mind none of those things are necessary for survival, and most such products can last decades if properly maintained.

I think you’re arguing against the most extreme interpretation of what this person said.

To give you an example, I’ll show you what it looks like if I were to interpret your comment in the same way:

In some capacity, you have to admit, self sufficiency is possible. Forged metal, magnets, and batteries aren’t necessary to sanitize water, grow, forage or hunt food, or to build shelter.

S6E4 Game Changers dropped literally yesterday and you wasted no time recycling the joke

Isn’t that… Just like… How you write titles and names?

I think it would look wrong if the title didn’t use title casing.

My solution is to host a virtual machine with my dev workstation, and use Windows or Mac for business admin stuff like email, slack, etc.
