What?! No! How could this have been Linux's "killer feature"?
Am I taking crazy pills? It really matters to you that you can use a single command to upgrade your system?

and the weighing is the entire problem.
It's also the fundamental value prop.
Ha I was writing another comment on this thread when this got posted, but I just feel like it's important, relevant to that, to say that the hairs didn't evolve FOR any specific purpose.
This is funny, and really speaks to a fundamental issue we have during education as to assigning agency for what amount to"random" events.
OP is presumably educated and intelligent, and the takeaway they had was that bees "are pollinators" which is true with regard to our interest in them, but definitely implies agency that they are intentionally pollinating, which (I am pretty sure) isn't true.
It feels like the same question that gets asked in a million different ways of "why did XYZ evolve that way when ABCD?" (Because evolution is random and tends toward selecting for energy conservation. Not to "achieve" some specific goal.)
What the fuck are all these comments?
It's an article about an unresolved and recurring problem with a popular drive that the ostensibly reputable manufacturer is trying to hide.
But 90% of the comments are people jerking themselves off about how smart they are for using RAID, which is irrelevant to the point of the article... But never miss an opportunity to pleasure yourself in public I guess?
I always go .gay myself.
Ha, well, yeah this pretty much tracks.
To paraphrase: "if we only pay attention to the most fundamental requirements and ignore any nuance and subtlety that's added, the implementation is perfect. What's the problem?"
Or: "Why care about the body of the post when there's at title?"
If this comment isn't the perfect distillation of the frustration people have with GIMP, I don't know what is.
OP makes a very even-handed, consciencious treatise to gather more info about alternatives to GIMP based on the UX issues they themselves have been struggling with and which are commonly recognized throughout the community, with at least one example, while acknowledging how incredible and powerful an undertaking a piece of software GIMP definitely is, and...
... The same cookie cutter response on every single GIMP discussion since 1998: "IT IS VERY POWERFUL. WHAT FEATURE IS IT MISSING?"
Similar to GIMP itself: You're not wrong you're just... Not being anywhere near as helpful as you could be.
God willing, Google can have six new apps out this year that each do a piece of what they had accomplished circa 2014.

Good to know we can just "teach" any imaginary thing we want. It sounds like it'd be neat? Fuck it, let's teach it.
