Clothing stores are the worst. I love responding to "what's your phone number?" With "no thank you".

This is an example of kenopsia, not a liminal space.

I've been taking notes religiously at work for years. So many notes. I have gone through dozens of note pads over the years. I recently switched from paper to Microsoft To Do. Works great for my purposes since I'm on my computer most of the time anyway. No more bulky note pads with disorganized chicken scratch.

It's been years since I dual booted. If you want Windows to be default I'm struggling to think of what could be gained by dual booting over just running your Linux system in a vm in Windows.

I think people who would say that might recognize Nirvana as more of a gen z fashion brand than an actual band. Like they know it's a band but the first assumption is that's not the driver of anyone's interest in it.

I think I'm a pretty normal person. Unremarkable.

Actually you're right, it's that person's prerogative to try to make themselves as comfortable as possible with the resources they've been given. They shouldn't care about my comfort just as I do not care about theirs.

I 100% agree with you.

Perhaps your tastes have changed. I'm sure there must still be a game out there for you.

Reclining certainly does make my experience better.

I refuse to accept responsibility for the consequences of a scenario that I didn't create.

Ideally the airline should simply make it so that the seats can't recline.

If we acquiesce and make up for the airline's failures by taking matters into our own hands, that just enables the airline to continue to not fix the issue. It's the same thing as tipping at restaurants. We have to tip because the staff don't get paid enough otherwise. The restaurant is passing off their shortcomings to the customers. The system only works because we agree to participate in it.

So the seat is there and it can be reclined but I'm not allowed to recline it because.... courtesy? What if there just happens to be nobody sitting behind me? Should I still not recline as a gesture of solidarity to the people who feel social pressure not to recline? The airline is at fault if we're going through these mental calculations. Every passenger should feel free and unencumbered to use 100% of the facilities on the plane they paid for. The airline should ensure it. They've failed to keep their passengers comfortable if they don't. The blame for that shouldn't be passed to other passengers.
