Most Graphene users are still using Google, but in sandboxed mode. Very few, myself among them, are willing to put up with the downsides of no GPS

Dry microfiber sticks to my fingers and when I tell people that they look at me like I'm crazy

My favorite part of AI PR reviews is that I'll fix one of its comments, which leads to a new comment. I fix that one and the new review suggests I actually try just doing the implementation that I started with

Museums have a ton of stolen artwork in them, that's why I brought it up, but modern acquisitions are typically legitimate (in the sense that someone was paid for making art and the museums have the right to display it). Dead people can't claim copyright, but their living family members can, at least for 70 years after their death. If a living artist sold a piece, and it gets put into a museum, they no longer have a say as to what is done with that art, since they typically sell the rights along with the painting. I know that most at purchases/donations to museums are corporate money laundering, but art really isn't being stolen by museums at large anymore, and the general public has a problem with the artwork in museums that is stolen.

This is such a bad take. Museums pay for the art they show. If they don't, it's because it was donated or on loan. The living artists are compensated, or were happy to give/loan to a museum. The dead artist's art was bought, donated by the artist's family, or loaned. In the cases that the art was looted or stolen back during colonial times, most normal humans want those pieces returned to the rightful owners, because it's theft.

Yeah, I always show up when the movie actually starts. I know that AMC lists the actual start time along with the showing time. This usually happens on accident anyway, my friends are always late to show up to carpool anyways

Yeah. I'm a hobbyist game dev who's used Unreal, Unity and Godot for projects in the past. I'm a software engineer by trade and am familiar with C++, C#, and GDScript. While the other engines out perform Godot, I find that I simply enjoy using Godot more than the others. I find myself happier when making games in Godot versus the other two. With that in mind, it makes perfect sense that it gets used more in game jams than the others, those are supposed to be fun

Yeah, this. I have 850 credit, and I've never carried a balance on any of my cards, not even once. As long as you make your payments on time, even if it's more than the minimum, your credit will slowly creep up. The annoying thing that lowers credit is paying off a loan. Wrapped up your student loans? Credit dip. Pay off the ol' car? Credit dip. Really annoying.
