In germany we don’t open this link, we say “XcQ der Link bleibt zu.” and i think it’s beautiful.

As I wander through the desolate wastes of this once-great land, surrounded by the ruins of structures grand enough to have been constructed by the gods themselves, I am constantly haunted by the glare of the despot responsible for it all. His gaze stares down upon me as though reaching inside my soul to condemn my rebellious heart.
Despite the untold lives he has ruined, my conditioning is so strong that I am compelled to drop to my knees and shout, “Oh, Mighty One! You will never give us up, you will never let me down, you will never hurt me.”
But as I stand in the middle of a desert with nobody to hear my cries, I know deep down that he has indeed let me down. Still, the conditioning is too strong. We are strangers to love, and you know the rules—so do I. I wouldn’t get this from any other guy. The cult would never accept me back if I were to renounce my faith.
With all that in mind, I wander into the desert, knowing there’s no water for miles, promising I’m never gonna run around.
It’s a recent thing for me. I think XQC (think that’s a streamer) and the end of this link is XcQ with an upper case W just before. I don’t think I’ll never not notice now.

“I see you XcQ” or “XcQ I see you”. It’s not the best mnemonic but it has served me well
We work as software engineers and my colleague works on a particular application for one of our clients and I shit you not the following happens regularly.
- Colleague emails client with a change log for the latest publish.
- Client prints off the email and annotates it with a pen.
- Takes a photo of the printed out email.
- Attaches it to his reply.

It’s much faster to take a photo and immediately send it by email, or transfer it via bluetooth/airdrop to your computer.
This is probably preferable to when something is written with a “pen” tool and a mouse, so you have mspaint style handwriting.

In KDE I hotkeyed Super+PrtSc to run
flameshot gui, so I can instantly get very good custom screen shots that I can annotate or whatever if I want. Then Alt+Super+PrtSc takes a screenshot of both displays and saves it to a custom folder

people who take camera pictures of their screen instead of doing a proper screenshot should not call themselves developers

I prefer copying the text on the terminal and pasting it, due to most platforms using jpeg compression on png uploads, making written text worse.
No dev would take a picture of the screen instead of making a screenshot
But what if something pulls a Netflix and blacks out the window when you try to screenshot. The sanctity of the screenshot is ruined, take more pictures.

My colleagues have fancy terminal applications with fancy backgrounds, so I thought the reflection was a cool frosted glass transparency effect, at first.
And with the amount of memes being sent across throughout the day, I reckon if it were silly videos, they would eat that up.
Also : watch a video while that command runs? “Fuck yeah”, they’d say!
