This is a boomer ass take

This graph doesn't make sense to me. The drops on the two graphs shouldn't line up, right? Make me sus

That's a very reddit thing to say

Ah makes sense.

I wasn't even concerned about the low priority of passenger cars. I meant the physical condition of the track itself, and the resulting reduction in top speed along many section in the maritimes.

I probably say something
And it gets me in trouble

Edit:
Hahaha I actually forgot my username and thought I was using one that I use elsewhere, but this still applies exactly the same 🤣😭

I wouldn't be surprised, the govt loves investing in things and then just giving it away to private companies to squander. It's the 3pp way.

Also: via rail sucks. They don't actually maintain their tracks, they just keep slowing down the trains instead.

I'm gonna be a bit rude here because you're not reading what I wrote.

I did not say that such apps cannot be updated, I said that they're not updated through a central update manager. So I don't give a flying fuck if you implemented your own custom app updater in your app because that's clearly and explicitly not what I'm talking about.

I also don't give a fuck about throwing config files all over the place, since a) the uninstall script takes care of that and b) this doesn't have to be specific to windows. Having an installer doesn't mean that configs must be thrown everywhere. Afaict apt-get isn't throwing files everywhere.

Again I don't really give a fuck about windows, but saying it hat it's not possible because people don't use the tool that makes it possible is fucking inane bullshit. Idk why you think the windows store "sucks" and I don't really give a fuck, it works fine as a user, even if I don't personally use it.

Cool, that doesn't help because I don't actually want blender.

I'm commenting on how much I hate when software is provided as just a portable executable.

I know that a lot of the time they're also provided as flatpaks or debs or in snap or windows app store, or Apple app store, etc.
But I'm talking about doing the thing that is being described in the image: unpacking a portable executable.

Not really moot, no.

A portable executable can have neither of those things. It also won't show up in the start menu app list.

With an installer, it'll at least show up in the uninstaller, with an install size that I can see when I'm looking to uninstall things, and it'll at least show up in the app list.

But they could also package it through the app store where you get all that plus centralized update management.
But I'd be happy with just having it show up in the app list and uninstaller.

I know I don't NEED an uninstaller. I want to use the uninstaller I already have for all my other apps.

Let me have a consistent user experience.
Automatically figure out the right spot for the app resources and set the appropriate file permissions.
Show up in the list of installed applications, so I can sort them by size, if I'm running out of space.
Don't make me jump through hoops or know the magical directory I need to put it in, in order to have it show up in the start menu or app drawer.

Hot take: I hate when software just extracts an executable.
Fucking install it so that it's registered with the software updater and uninstaller. Don't make me remember that I have to go hunting in the folder to delete this one app.

Bro youve just described appetizers in general 😭
