    God, can we not though? Haha funni meme and all, but like, I’m so tired of seeing this shit. It sucks for the women in the community, and honestly it sucks for the men too. It’s just such boomer humor.

    You’ll have permission if you go $HOME.

    I’m assuming you have a lovely, caring partner there otherwise that sounds wrong.

      From man touch:

      It’s not the size of the boat, it’s the motion of the ocean.

      I’m thinking of old text adventure games where it would repeat your invalid command back to you.

      >eat pussy

      I can't "eat" a "pussy" right now!

      >fuck yourself

      I can't "fuck" a "yourself" right now!

    I think in the middle east group they can chown woman, and that is probably coming to the America group in the next patch.

    I always hate when my own computer says I need permission. “Permission”? I own your damn ass! It should be more like, “Unable to comply due to security settings” - and even better, tell me where the settings are, and add, “Your Majesty”.

      Insert that intentionally unhinged thing I like to post here, about how we should bring back victorian servant-to-master etiquette but only and exclusively for computers trying to communicate with humans.

          Since it seems language AIs are going to become inescapable (not a fan, but if you can’t beat 'em…), make it a toggle so that users who want to can have error messages with different “personalities”, and those who don’t can just have the machinelike codes.

      That’s because ‘users’ in the system are considered different people and there is an admin who doesn’t care about the message anyway(since they are supposed to know what they should do) but thats rarely the case in PCs

      Yeah true and this is especially infuriating on Window$ but luckily on Linux I can fix anything with sudo and terminal

      you forget that UNIX-likes were originally made under the presumption that most users were not the admin nor owned the computer
