I don't want to comment on Cock and Ball Torture but I will say that eccentric people will help you see life in a much wider window than before.
I made a comment somewhere else a few days ago so I'll just copy paste.
Les Misérables is easily the best book I’ve ever read in my entire life. A few years ago I read a shorthened version of it and even then I was fascinated by it. I finished reading the full text two months ago and oh my fucking god this book is the best thing ever written.
I’m Turkish so I read the Turkish translation (will read the full text in English and French when I learn it) and on the back of it, it says something along these lines:
“… Les Misérables is the third and the most majestic collumn of the author’s novel trilogy that tells of the society…”
And I completely agree with that. This book is simply timeless. The characters, situations, unjustice, inequalities, all the suffering in it could be applied to any society. This book is real.
The messages that it sends are solutions to topics that seemingly anybody with a functioning brain should be capable of thinking and realizing. And yet, these solutions are ignored and refused because of greed, revenge, bloodlust and most important of all, ignorance.
The main character of the book, Jean Valjean is the embodiment of redemption. His entire arc teaches us how to treat criminals. Some countries today are taking these lessons and applying them. The lessons being; treat them as human, rehabilitate them. The result? They actually do heal and return to society as normal human beings.
And yet you see people against this practice. Those kinds of people are blinded by bloodlust and revenge. They are the same kind of people that were racist, sexist and much more back in the day. The arguments that these people bring don’t hold up either. The most common one I see (at least from my perspective) is this:
“You wouldn’t react this way if they hurt one of your loved ones!”
The fact that these people don’t know anything about me aside, this argument is pointless as it implies that I would be blind to fact and logic when I’m in pain. And while that is true, me being angry over an apple falling onto my head won’t make gravity any less real. In other words, so what?
The biggest victims of this mentality are pedofiles. Not the ones that do engage in action. But rather the ones that don’t harm anybody are aware of their issue. For instance, if a non-engaging pedo went to a therapist and told them of their issue, what would the therapist do? Call the police of course. And what would that do? Their life would be pretty screwed from that point forward. Assuming they are the non-engaging type, of course. I don’t believe this to be the correct attitude towards these kind of cases.
I would also like to dive into other topics that the book covers (and perhaps extend on this one) but it would be way too long for a comment. Thank you anyone reading this far. I would like to hear your opinions on the matter and discuss even!>>

I can't speak for the privacy scene but in my country it's pretty popular merely because of anonimity (which boils down to not having to use a phone number) and Discord-like server/groups. For porn and other NSFW content, it is pretty popular.
It is Google's. Google uses it on Google products that aren't Android. Such as Google Chrome for PC. It got a MD3 update.
Edited the image link to point to the correct one.
I'm pretty sure the reason why it doesn't use Material Design is to protect it's own branding. Material Design is Google's after all.
I personally think that this merely a miscommunication on Leah's part. If I were you, I would just let it go. From what I understand, Leah remade the patch herself so no work was stolen?
Sure you might feel wronged for being told to wait for a week and that's natural! But as I stated, this was just a miscommunication in my opinion.
This situation is not worth stressing yourself over. You're salty over Leah calling your work "shit"? Work/study harder and improve upon yourself. If I were you, this is what I would gather from all this.
Also, Leah saying "Accepy my authority" is pretty ironic for someone in the FOSS community.
It's usually a plain text that says "Access Denied" on a blank page.
This is the first time in my life that I have seen somebody get offended by the word "disabled".
Assuming they have moderators of course.
I have been using Material files for quite a while now and I really enjoy it. If I want "dual-pane mode" then I just use the "New window" button and split those two.
