I think I paid $20 for one years ago! Getting the distance between walls within a quarter inch whenever I want has been worth it

Oh yeah, I am with you on the goofiness :3 (Looking back on my comment, it seemed condescending, oopes)
Yeah, Windows is probably the most trusted operating system :(
So use it for your servers : )

Reply to Tired of matching up socks? Throw them all away. Start new, buying one and only one type of sock. Order in bulk! by twovests
I did this when I was in my utilitarian era and it was really nice when I was in a hurry. Eventually though I got tired of having one boring type of sock and picked up some cute ones for a special occasion. 6 months later and I’m back to sock sorting as a chore. C’est la vie.

I was being goofy.
It’s really hard to estimate with any precision, but there is roughly an order of magnitude more windows desktops than there are servers and routers combined. If you use “trusted” to mean “relied on for” (even if the people doing so feel they shouldn’t be), then I think by the numbers windows is “trusted” more than any non-mobile platform.
But my original comment was still wrong because of mobile, which would make android the most “trusted” OS.
oh well lol

This unfortunately did not work for me, I have two socks of the same material and style that I bought at the same time, but due to the uneven frequency of wearing and washing them, they ended up being different textures, and then I lost one half of a pair and couldn't use the remaining half with the other pair :(

I can't believe my suggestion "Peel it from the bottom" was deemed not very good! That is how they do it in the hospital!!! Taste my blade, twovests

I think you may be technically correct…… the best kind of correct.
Edit: so long as we don’t include mobile OSes?

I leave a few of these mailing lists running just so if I need a coupon code to buy something from them I'll have it handy but god, they come every day! And clogs up my emails like crazy so having to go in and delete them feels sisyphean and makes me hate the brand low-key even if it's a store I bought from before and liked
