When the term leaves the original use, and those using it are referring to something distinctly different, isn’t this just natural evolution of language? English uses tonnes of words from French which are quite disconnected from the original use of the word

Whelks_chance,

KDE. Not a distro, but I can’t get on with it. Too much screen real estate used by flashy things, and everything moves. I want instant transitions not a shwoosh. It’s probably all toggleable, but I don’t want to fiddle with it for every install or release.

Whelks_chance,

Are we considering the notion that Santa doesn’t just know if human children have behaved themselves, but also all ages of various animals too?

Does he know if my goldfish is a dick? Has he ever given anything except coal to a cat? Does he know whether all dogs are good dogs?

Whelks_chance,

It’s their content, they can do anything they like with it. The “shitty move” is demanding someone else’s effort be delivered to to for free in exactly the way you define, and insulting them for not doing so.

Whelks_chance,

Reminds me of Oglaf
