None of which are in this picture. The person in the picture talks only favorably of immutable systems yet is apparently against them, thus making for an easy target by arguing against themselves, so a straw man.

I’m actually positive to immutable systems, I just thought the argument wasn’t great. I realize that’s about what Skinner does in the meme, but it feels weak.

On second thought, I think the reason it was so jarring is because normally points against Skinner are in top picture, and the bottom picture has him abandon that line of thoughts in favor of something simplistic, thus changing his mind from one side to the other. Whereas here, the points against Skinner are at the end point of the meme, and thus he argues in both directions simultaneously.

This seems rather strawman-y

You can have a physical SIM alongside an eSIM. These days you may have to have at least one of them be an eSIM, as many phones only have one physical SIM slot.

64 for the wan interface

Nitpicking, but the address for the wan interface wouldn’t have a prefix, so the host would just set it as a /128 (point-to-point)

Sounds like a typical COBOL dev

Proper firewall

What services does it have that are listening on external interfaces?

It’s not necessarily counterproductive, it depends on what you’re trying to accomplish

Rooted users can probably bypass this issue with some Magisk modules the same way they do with GPay and banking apps.

That doesn’t work anymore due to hardware attestation

How can it tell the difference between spaces used for indentation and spaces used for alignment, if you use the same character for both?

That one was always available though

I find it ridiculous to have a car tied to a specific mobile OS

But then would they die if they don’t slow the train down? The train would necessarily have to impart some energy in order to effect a change in their bodies.

There is a push notification API in web browsers

I’m actually in Europe, so no need for that for me. But it doesn’t have great specs, nor apparently great security, so I’m leaning towards a Pixel with GrapheneOS for my next phone.

A bit late. It’s more that two years old, and it’s based on a SoC that was a year old when it was launched

My house doesn’t even exist on OpenStreetMap, so I don’t have much faith in it

Maybe they just meant that it runs ARM binaries instead of running on Rosetta 2.

It was, nowadays it’s been replaced by Fenix

But they’re way too buggy to be considered premium

Where it really becomes an issue is when they find it so offensive they decide to break things. For example, a function was added to the Debian Buildbot packages so that updating the packages would artificially fail if it detected the worker basedir was in the slaves directory (which used to be the default). Forcing everyone using it to figure out what was wrong and move the directory. Because the Debian project apparently found a file path so offensive they had to ban it, even on your own private server.
