not only are they selling at a loss, most of the sales aren't even real

Why are you using Chinese enumeration commas?

i.e. "、" instead of ","

How does it compare to PollyMC? It was super easy to use and you can play both offline without an account but also online with a Mojang Account. (Java versions)

Admittedly I didn't actually try to play it online since I just looked it up for a nephew.

I used the Linux AppImage, just download and run it and you're good (might have to install new java runtime depending on what you have already), but there's also Windows and Mac versions.

p.s. I'm not really into Minecraft and don't know what's up, but apparently there's some drama or something and PollyMC (with 2 'L's) is not to be confused with PolyMC (one 'L').

Finally someone that mentions an Enable Right Click extension. There's a few out there but I use "Absolute Enable Right Click & Copy" as well.

On top of return youtube dislike & sponsorblock I will highly recommend BlockTube, it optionally removes shorts, the video pause and & popup asking if you're still there, and a few other things. I've tried the "remove youtube loudness normalization" option but volume is just all over the place no matter what.

Of course these are specific to youtube and not essential for anyone who uses an alternative

Do you type with one hand?

And well even if you did you could hold down right shift instead of left shift to only use a single hand.

well if you're using a mono font (terminal) then there are no such thing as wider characters anyway, so for me that's not a drawback either

why not use underscores?

Does windows add an extra character at the end that gets converted to new line on linux? Because the other day I were copying a script and after pasting it an extra line was added after every single line, even the empty lines.

how it looked when I copied it:

bla
bla

bla

what it turned into:

bla

bla

This was after spending an hour trying to get into the BIOS, only to find that the keyboard doesn’t actually work before the Windows splash screen comes up… I mean who the fuck designs it like that?

Does your laptop have multiple usb ports? And did you try them all?

I had this issue even on my PC until I tried a bunch of different USB ports and found one that worked.

Uhh I just realized that since it's a laptop the keyboard is part of the laptop... Well I'll still leave this in case it helps anyone

TWP is even better than just google translate because it lets you choose between Google, Bing, Yandex, and DeepL translations, if a translation looks sus you can take a look at what the other translation engines say.

At least on PC

Steam has proton which lets you play Windows games on Linux.

You can use Lutris, Heroic Launcher, Bottles, or just plain WINE as well but for a lot of people the easiest way they know is to just add a non-steam game to steam.

Ignoring unauthorized copying

... Bill Gates said "And as long as they're going to steal it, we want them to steal ours. They'll get sort of addicted, and then we'll somehow figure out how to collect sometime in the next decade."

The practice allowed Microsoft to gain some dominance over the Chinese market and only then taking measures against unauthorized copies. In 2008, by means of the Windows update mechanism, a verification program called "Windows Genuine Advantage" (WGA) was downloaded and installed. When WGA detects that the copy of Windows is not genuine, it periodically turns the user's screen black. This behavior angered users and generated complaints in China with a lawyer stating that "Microsoft uses its monopoly to bundle its updates with the validation programs and forces its users to verify the genuineness of their software".

... the documents identified open-source software, and in particular the Linux operating system, as a major threat to Microsoft's domination of the software industry, and suggested tactics Microsoft could use to disrupt the progress of open-source software.
