Take away your ability to install apps that aren't stamped approved.

Oh wait, one did it over a decade ago and the other is about to start enforcing it.

Oh, and there's pretty much only the two of them.

I remember whn Linux hit 4% as if it was yesterday.

Also, it's FOSS so you can always make your own skin/theme.

Firstly: I'm not the downvoter.

Secondly: you didn't have to - you chose to.

And as most chatbots list sources, you can always check them out yourself and cut out the middleman. Most of academia - some 45% do that. Another 45% don't even bother. A lone 10% still do things the old fashioned way. In any case, you're not alone in relying on AI to find obscure information.

With search engines becoming increasingly infested with low-quality and obvious-slop sites, relying on the same methods as the slopmasters isn't even a big stain on your morality. Because of it was, the slopmasters would be drowning in the ink required, and billionaires would already have caused another biblical flood of it.

Sidenote: all 4 include plastic.

for up to a minute

I'm not too well versed in animal physiology, but for humans it's closer to 3-4 minutes. And panicking doesn't influence the speed or terror much.

Drowning in water and suffocating with CO2 are the worst feelings of dread in existance. Animal or human, period.

And panicking won't speed it up, nor will doing medidation slow it down much since the body literally fights for its life and the adrenalin makes you very much awake and hyperalert during pretty much the entire process.

I think, it was by using nitrogen

You think right.

When panicking for lack of oxygen, the nervous system (mamallian and human alike) doesn't actually look for the lack of oxygen for some reason, but for the overabundance of certain "common displacers". Such as water and CO2. And that's pretty much the exhaustive list.

Nitrogen doesn't cause a panic response. Neither does CO (carbon monoxide).

You don't feel anything if you're suffocating in nitrogen or are poisoned by CO for a few minutes. Then you might feel a bit drowsy for some 10 seconds right before you lose consciousness.

Then you don't feel anything again. A few more minutes, and you're gone without even knowing.

To be honest, this seems like a stupid fix to a non-issue.

There's already Latex, and the purists calling it Lateh only make it seem like they know and are ashamed.

Or Uranus being pronounced not as your-anus but urine-us. The "alternate/kid-friendly" option is just plain worse. It also teaches kids certain words are bad, which is a bad idea for a multitude of resons I won't get into.

I say keep GIMP GIMP, loud and clear. No need to be ashamed, because it isn't shameful.

Attempting to avoid this absolute non-issue by ingenious pronounciation or rebranding just exacerbates the issue.

It's called "GIMP" and not "Fuck Me then Go Out The Door". Wether or not GIMP was a moment of "funny humor" or not is beside the point. The "official" explanation is perfectly belieavable, and therefore suitable enough. Just run with it.

If an idiot asks "Why's it called like [insert-here]", just say it's a fucking coincidence and you don't care. Call them dirty-minded for bonus points.

It isn't misleading (that'd be a technically true headline, which this isn't). This is a downright lie, or as some might say, "fake news".

"Natural gas" can never be green because it is specifically fossil-fuel gas.

Well, the electoral college isn't actually FPTP, it's even worse than that.

Threats of physical violence are the only tool they have in their toolbox. THE ONLY tool.

And actual gun violence. They're the sniwflakiest and wimpiest of the all, bringing an AK-47 to a civilised discussion and feeling "threatened".

It's not even the highest bidder that gets the data, it's all 1278 data partners. Talk about data prostitution!
