Fwiw Linux is way easier today than it was a million years ago. Honestly I find it simpler to use than Windows.

I don't think that's as Indian-specific as you think

They can connect via USB so you can do things like perform a clean shutdown when it loses power

Newspeak is intended to make more complex thoughts impossible. This isn't newspeak; they're still talking about the topics, they're just using dumb filter workarounds.

Though I do feel it'd be obnoxious to actually talk like this when not needed

Personal example: I once asked on the linguistics subreddit why desceiptivist linguistics were preferred to prescriptivist and was downvoted to hell and back. The only replies were to call me a racist. I never got an answer, and I still don’t know. So voting is not the end-all be-all of forum mechanics.

I'mma have to call bullshit here, unless there just so happened to be a different person using the name quindraco on Reddit who asked this very question.

  • Your question was answered.
  • You may have gotten downvotes, but it was certainly not "to hell and back" -- your post is currently sitting at +18.
  • Not a single person called you racist, even after you compared descriptivism to literal genocide.

As the 2024 presidential campaign ramps up, concern is quickly rising that such images might be used to spread false information.

Though, I guess shame on us for expecting better journalism these days.

I did not do any of the side quests as having to redo a bunch of stuff sounds terrible.

This is a game that's really about the sidequests. They're so important that there's a mandatory (iirc) part to get a notebook to help you track them.
