    Using “themselves” for a non-binary person or unspecified gender is grammatically incorrect.

    It’s “themself.” (Unless they’re plural.)

    Also, “Latinx” is performative white ally cringe. It’s not pronounceable in Spanish. Use “Latine.” -e is the obvious gender neutral ending.

    • LTS Linux distros are not good for desktop usage and terrible for beginners. (And for servers too but a bit less ig).
    • The current distribution model of Linux apps is garbage. The concept of package maintainers, in most cases, is just redundant, duplicated work.
    • Bash is horrible and relying on it for anything else than personal scripts gets messy really fast.
    • Having a standard “platform” in Linux is key.
    • SystemD is actually good, not perfect but very powerful.
    • Apps not using Portals are a crime.

    Obviously written by NixOS sectarian.

      You are absolutely in the wrong so unfortunately I had to actually make you die on that hill, but I am upvoting anyway to leave a memorial in honor to your bravery for standing up for your principles.

    The race of a voice actor doesn’t matter

    This is a one-way ticket to everyone being the dominant race behind the scenes because studios won’t hire other races.

      How is that true in a way different from other industries? I do think there’s no necessity for the race of the VA to correspond with the race of the character. That might be because I don’t have a good grasp on the arguments otherwise though.

      The argument I’ve heard in favor of VAs matching their characters is to avoid laundering white perspectives to minority characters, which would make sense if the VA didn’t have their livelihood on the line when asked to read from a script written by a cishet white man. I feel like requiring a minority do that makes no difference other than providing a cover of legitimacy for the words said.

      But as a cishet white male myself, maybe I’m mischaracterizing the argument, I’d be curious. I have asked my (racial minority) wife at one point a couple years back and she wasn’t sure.

      It’s a given that there are insensitivities in hirings, but I struggle to imagine a way in which that would be unique to voice acting specifically.

        It is the same in other industries, the dominant race always has better employment opportunities. It’s not really specific to voice acting.

        At least in VA we are able to actually force companies to hire minorities.

          I believe they are asking why should it matter the VA race but not the race of the person who wrote the character, or designed the character, or animated the character.

    1. The big hill in my neighborhood park.

    2. Capital Hill

    I don’t really know of any other hills or why I would be near them so if I die on a hill it will probably be one of these.

    • ISO 8601 (e.g., 2025-05-23) are the only correct date formats.
    • We should stop using time zones and daylight saving.

      Stop using timezones? So every day would actually be two weekdays because at some random point in time it would switch date during the day. Let’s meet next Monday wouldn’t even specify a single day anymore in most countries. And there is no real benefit to stop using timezones, just downsides. Yes you’d know which time it is anywhere but you still wouldn’t know of they are awake or not and have to either look it up or remember it - the same you have to do now.

    1. Rainy, damp, cloudy, windy weather is peak weather and beats a “nice sunny day” 80% of the time.

    2. Ice cream is winter food and not summer food because of how fatty it is. Popsicles are summer food and not so appealing in the winter.

    3. All countries should be making a 100% effort towards eliminating all meat (except that produced by subsistence farmers and the like) in their diets for the sake of the climate. Poverty is not an excuse because vegetarian diets use many many times less resources (which is why wealthy countries eat much more meat).

    4. Large wealthy countries should provide free vitamin supplements worldwide to reduce diseases.
