I mean, Sam should be more of a ghoul with those creepy sunken eyes. And Dario that guy with hair on the sides.

Sakana is certainly a choice of a name. In portuguese, goes from anything between "scoundrel" to "sleazebag".

Hype-based ones like what's described in the original blog post are a nightmare. And I don't even need to pull the privacy card; the UX is already daunting enough.

A good benchmark I have is my wife, who didn't grow messing around with computers and a tinkerer's mindset: if she's taking more than a couple of tries or days to tinker and start living with something new, I need either to prep a better backup plan, or to cut it off. Very specialized stuff (like light bulb colors) are still too expensive to have more manual-like controls, but almost everything toggleable should have something one can press.

I kept forgetting Narrator is a Windows program, and the post read like the author was referring to the "Narrator voice in their head" while testing the UIs.

It made the post more amusing, actually. I sighed when I saw "Windows Narrator" suddenly.

It's really interesting how the _only_ free speech being cared about in this context is specifically the freedom to spread blatantly false information. It's not even stuff that can hide behind plausible deniability, really.

And the specific freedom to defend and spread nazi speak. Which, in Brazil, in paper is a crime.

It's never freedom of speech with a goal other than actively desiring and justifying to hurt others, of belittling and bullying others.

Quite amusing.
