There was a lot of work done behind the scenes to make sure that all those systems still worked. Probably too much, but it did work.

Home button? Where? I don’t see one.

Do you mean the navigation bar at the bottom? That can be changed in OS settings.

The crucifix is an implement of torture and execution, upon which the titular Christian god was executed to fulfill a blood oath. Executionists, torturers, blood magicians, nailers, death cultists, the forsaken (Psalm 22)…

Being shephered by a higher authority is also a common theme. Sheep is right there, although some actually use that directly.

Another common theme is the second arrival of their god, starting the end of the mortal realm and the death of all mortals. Death cultists again, apocalyptics, doomsdayers…

There’s lots of heinous things in their book, but most reject them or are unaware. You could call out lots of things there.

Well there you go, you got it.

This was more like leaving all your valuables in a cardboard box on your front lawn. Anyone can just take it, if they care to look inside the complete unsecured box.

Someone just drove up and tossed the box in their truck. No lock involved.

The topic is sharing culture, where lots of very patriotic US things have their origins in other cultures. How so much of the US identity is a mish mash of other cultures. The US is even known as a cultural melting pot!

The hypocrisy is being ok with other cultures if you’re familiar with them, but hating ‘new’ culture. The comic is criticizing xenophobia by pointing out the (somewhat) xenophilic history of US culture.

The fact that One Trillion is as easy to say as One Million is a travesty. It’s great for coming to terms with astronomic scales, but it really hampers the average person in understanding just how much wealth a single plane of people hold.

This is my favorite attempt to show just how much wealth they’re actually talking about. It’s a bit biased towards phones, and it dates itself a bit, but it certainly makes an impression.

Also from Yeshua we get Josh. And Christ is a title meaning Christened or Anointed (often with oil). Thus Oily Josh, my favorite light-hearted nickname for that brown guy.

That’s a pretty good beginner project. More characters, more stages, and more gimmiks leaves plenty of room grow, but still something to be proud of early.

Plasma lets you pin any window to be always on top (short of fullscreen apps), and you can set up rules to automatically set that behavior for any pip window.

It also argues that municipalities create far too much parking space, reducing the amount of useable area in cities. This is one big reason why most US and Canadian city centers are dying, as more downtown plots are dedicated to parking, and new plots need a crazy amount parking.

New constructions all have huge parking lots like big box stores and fast food islands, surrounded by a sea of pavement. The lower density reduces propery taxes (as they’re usually calculated by the number of properties, not the used land area), and increases the need for a vehicle to reach locations.

Free parking in general may help to keep things accessible to everyone (with a car), but the amount of parking is choking everyone out and increasing reliance on car manufacturers and roadwork companies.

I quite like this one.

Moonbase Alpha has DECTalk as text to speech, and so in-game chat is spoken out by DECTalk. Anything stupid is immediately 10x funnier when a robot says it earnestly, especially when that robot has to interpret it.

It’s 14 years old now, dang

AEIOU repeating is the famous example, and spawned Moonbase Alpha covers of songs and similar text to speech implementations (like in R.E.P.O.).

Seems like Cromebook mode to me. There’s a niche of super light interchangeable tablets or notebooks I could see that working on, but nothing MS makes is light except the theme.

‘ls’ is an abbreviation for ‘list’, not an acronym. Like copy -> cp, and the other keystroke saving abbreviations.

Ah, so now I have 7 workspaces that don’t survive reboots! Wonderful.

Bookmarks would be easier at this point.

Not when window history in only 3 windows long. That deletes 90% of my tabs instantly.

Managing that would be a nightmare too. Good luck alt-tabbing to the one you want.

It doesn’t pay taxes.

It’s kind of a thing in certain animals, but not wolves like originally claimed. The certain animals here being mostly primates, so it’s even more applicable.

That said, the politics of social primates are notoriously complex and many cultures have unique behaviors within the species, so there aren’t really any universal rules particularly among the most social groups.

There’s a reason the guy in the meme is dressed like a clown.
