You're getting a lot of retorts in response to your comment, but I 100% agree. Sure telling people happy cake day is fun the first few times, but it inevitably just becomes stale. One of the things that made reddit not enjoyable was people parroting the same phrases all over the site.

I hug my guy friends when I haven't seen them in a while (e.g. my friends who live far away). Snuggling is super weird, and I don't know of any guys who have done that. Feels like if I did, my wife would not be very happy. Affectionate fighting seems just over the top. Seems like something limited to children and movies.
I think the amount of physical affection I get from other men is fine. Don't really need more
plenty of it doesn’t come from a company doing lousy stuff like this
So you only play indie games? Because that's basically the only way you avoid "companies doing lousy stuff."
I don't know why an MSN link was used instead of a direct link to the article:
https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/microsoft-is-warping-the-pc-industry/
I would argue that it is better to have two separate drives for the installation. It simplifies things for non tech savvy people, and I believe Windows has less of an opportunity to mess with your linux install, such as messing with the efi partition.
Again, not giving them a free pass. Just pointing out the terminology used is an overstatement.
I mean, I'm not exactly giving FF a pass here but rewarded is factually incorrect considering FF was paid to do the gig. The show wasn't some free pat on the back for the execs doing such a great job.
Maybe the AI writing the articles are just taking credit for everything. "Yeah, that was me"
Personally I do not let internet trends affect my behavior out in the real world. Why is that? Because if I use the term "short king" anywhere in the real world, 99% of people won't know what I'm talking about. Until you hear a real person say it (that means not on lemmy, not on twitter, not on dating apps, etc. or people you meet through these platforms) you can assume that there is no real impact to be had there. I think we give way too much credit to the internet for affecting real life trends. Most people don't care about these cute terminologies people come up with, and neither should you. The term was made to get someone attention, not to make short people feel better.
Ctrl + Shift + - should decrease the font size of the current terminal, which isn't what you are looking for, but could be useful while you sort it out. Is it possible that the font in the config doesn't exist, causing this issue?
What happens when the defaults change? Is old code all of a sudden not following the style guidelines?
I mean, I'm not calling for a police state to shut down cake day or something. Just saying cake day was a shallow activity imo. People can choose to do whatever they want, but I would rather us think about what was actually valuable about reddit rather than just importing whatever preexisting culture there was.
