You realize Naruto is one of the animes in the meme, right?

I reject your premise that the purpose of the terminal is to troubleshoot errors.

That was an example not a premise. But whatever. I give up.

I reject the premise.

Here is a simpler one:

People see computers the same way they see clothes, it's a tool for a job. Some people know a lot about them and some people make their living making or modifying them. But most people just want it to be usable.

In the same vein, saying people should be able to use the terminal to use a computer is like saying that people should be able to sew to wear clothes.

Much like how people don't want to pick up a needle to patch a hole in their clothes, they don't want to mess with the terminal to troubleshoot any errors. People expect things to "just work" and that's not an unreasonable expectation.

It's easy for you to say that everyone should just know how to use the terminal, but it's also easy for someone that sews to say that everyone should know how to use a sewing machine; or for someone that likes hardware to say everyone should be able to open their computers and swap components; or for someone that how to drive to say that everyone should know too; or for someone that diets a lot to say that everyone should know how to count calories; etc. etc. etc.

Point is that people learn different things, not everyone has the same interests or specialties. And just because they don't share specialties, doesn't mean they should be shut out of important or useful tools.

P.S.: the antivax movement happens because of lack of trust in medical institutions. People should be able to trust qualified doctors to inform them and recommend proper procedures, people shouldn't need to be "medicine savvy" enough to know what each drug or procedure does before they seek treatment. If anything, this need for "medicine savviness" is what pushes people into "doing their own research" and becoming antivax.

Do you also think that anyone that wants a car should be a mechanic? Anyone that wants a house should be a builder? Anyone that wants to have electricity should be a electrician? Anyone that wants to listen to music should be a musician? Anyone that wants to eat they should learn how to farm? Anyone that wants a drug should be a pharmacist?

People put their time and effort in different things, you might've learned how to program and became tech literate, but that doesn't mean everyone else wants or should do the same.

Sure life would be easier if everyone was an expert in every field, but that's a clearly ridiculous proposition.

Maybe realize the sheer privilege that is wanting everyone to be a "computer tech" just because you are one yourself. Maybe realize that the only reason you can afford to be a "computer tech" is because someone else is a "hardware tech" or a "architecture tech" or a "electricity tech" or whatever else, and those people would likely also want you to be a "tech" in their field so they don't need to make things that "just work" for non-"tech" people.

If dial gauges weren't what you chuckleheads grew up with (I'm 38 so I understand the nostalgia) you'd realize they aren't really all that well designed.

That's not actually true, studies show that analog dials (or digital imitations) are better than regular numbers or bars as speed displays.

The thing about analog dials is that they offer a lower mental load than a simple number. Seeing the dial move is a better indication of speed change than a number changing, and the "wasted" space in the dial offers a comparative idea of how fast you're going.

The human brain is just much better at perceiving relative changes than absolute ones. Seeing a 20 rise to 80 doesn't convey as much info as seeing a dial in the bottom rise to the middle.

I want my average speed, instantaneous speed, average miles per gallon, instantaneous miles per gallon, range, engine temperature, music track, outside temperature, inside temperature, tire pressure, time, vehicle orientation, all at once. They're normally all available, but hidden in different menus and screens.

The reason this information isn't readily available is probably because putting more information only serves to increase the mental load on the driver which might cause distractions, and consequently, more accidents.

The fact that FIDE still enforces women's chess is a glaring example.

There is no man's chess, you know? Women can and do participate in open tournaments against men.

Woman's chess is a DEI program to incentivize woman's participation in chess in a more inclusive environment, because, surprise surprise, chess has a misogyny problem. You can argue that this doesn't work or something, but it definitely isn't there to protect men's egos (especially considering titles acquired in women's chess tournaments are worth less than regular titles).

That's because conservatives are very individualistic for whatever reason. Instead of seeing systemic issues they see bad apples.

They don't see health insurance as a flawed concept that is made to exploit them, they see it as a system that got corrupted by the "elite" (aka the Jews, probably)

You forgot manual blinking.

Someone downvoted it and I don't upvote anything unless I find it really funny.

Tbf, it's not as if the time of the year you're born doesn't have effects on how you grow.

There's no way to add an easy mode without compromising the dev's vision.

It would be as easy as putting a slider to reduce damage taken/increase damage inflicted.

If people want to go experience they can play the og game.

Take Celeste for example. Celeste is a game meant to be hard, beating Celeste is supposed to be a trial for the player, it's their mountain to conquer.

And yet, Celeste gives so many accessibility options you can trivialize the game. The people that need it get to play the game and the people that don't need it, play the game as intended.

That's not to say that Dark Souls should have an easy mode. Just saying that it could, easily, have one. They don't because they'd rather maintain the image of being a hardcore™ game than help people with less time/skill/capabilities play the game.

I just think it's bizarre to have a black dude protagonist in a historical japanese setting.

Why? He is a historical figure. Why does a historical figure in his historical setting feel bizarre?

I've read through the sources on Yasuke and I think it's a stretch to say he was like a full fledged samurai.

Potato potato. Why him being a "full fledged samurai" even matters? The series is known to take creative liberties with history.

Seriously ask yourself why having ONE SINGULAR black protagonist in a series where protagonists have so far been overwhelmingly white feels like "black people getting pushed into games".

Because to me, it sounds like you have seen too many opinions of people getting outraged and because of that you internalized their views without asking yourself why they (and now you) feel the way they do.
