That doesn't mean he should be a jerk about it.

It's blueshifted to looking green because you're excessively speeding.

The last paragraph is completely irrelevant, as it has nothing to do with the ozone layer. You do not want ozone in the troposphere, but you do want it in the stratosphere.

.C came first. I don't usually use it though; I usually use .cc or .cxx, but if I'm making some tiny test source, I often use .C. I'm strongly opposed to the .cpp extension because calling C++ "CPP" leads to confusion with the preexisting (before C++) use of the initialism to refer to the C preprocessor. There's a reason why CPPFLAGS refers to preprocessor flags and CXXFLAGS refers to C++ flags.

Journalism was always like this when it comes to reporting on research.

using copyrighted clips in a monetized video can make you get a strike against your channel

Much of the time, the use of very brief clips is clearly fair use, but the people who issue DMCA claims don't care.

"X" already happened. Musk even stole the logo.

I have obsessive guilt about silly things, but even I cannot comprehend why people would feel guilty about simply not buying something at a store.

He's stealing the X logo, not the X.Org logo. The X.Org logo consists of the X logo with a superimposed "O".

X came way before X.Org. X.Org is just a 21^st^ century implementation of X.

It's just another Chromium browser now.

Simply open about:config, search for dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled, and change it from true to false.

Indeed, the upsides to this outweigh the downsides. I can't even remember the last time I needed to re-enable it.
