“Set foot” might be better established (and sound better), but “step foot” is not new.

I did a lazy ginger beer over Christmas, but I wanted it vegan and it didn’t clear in time through an extended cold crash. I put it in a plastic keg with CO2 shortly after Christmas, but I was worried about the haziness so I didn’t share it for New Years either.
I used quite a lot of sugar and it fermented dry, but I didn’t bother checking the OG, so I have no idea how strong it is (though I’d guess it’s 6% or so).
End result: while most people I know are attempting Dry January, I’m drinking a lot of ginger beer.
I’m not on your community, I have absolutely no need to know your community’s rules. Thank you for highlighting the reason this community is named as it is, though.
It’s a shame, I think there’s space for a community for gentle and good-natured roasting of Linux – no one has ever run a Linux OS without encountering some pain points (as with all software, to a greater or lesser extent) and shared frustration through comedy can actually be beneficial. It’s definitely true that the Linux community can take itself too seriously sometimes.
That’s not what this is, though, it’s a furious, blinkered, irrational attack. Fuck that noise. More power to the users.
Just don’t miss out on the spoils.

These seem fair ideas? They’re not paywalling critical functionality and you can’t run a massive social network for free. It’s not the same attitude as the wider Fediverse, and I understand why that rubs people the wrong way, but it’s hardly outrageous.
Chill. The graphic wasn’t made for this specific discussion. It’s a widely accepted way to group users of a service. In this case, the bell curve represents the adoption of something other than Twitter by Twitter users, and the driver isn’t “new thing to try” (in as much as neither federated or newer centralized microblogging platforms have much new to offer), it’s the slowly-heating pot of water that the frog is in.
WhatsApp has channels (public feeds centered around topics, a bit like microblogging), communities (groups about a subject, much like Facebook Groups), and updates (temporal video/photo statuses to share with your friends). You might only use it for DM, but it has much bigger aspirations.
I’m from the UK. I found this funny, unreservedly. But I honestly really wish Americans would drop the “Cockney” thing and take the piss out of modern British accents instead. We’ve got a million of them and most of them are comic - let’s let Cockney die?
I’m Baphomet, and I approve this message.
I’m going to assume you’re being wilfully ignorant but not trying to be an ass. “Gay” is more often used of men than women, and it’s perhaps more common for people to use “lesbian” for gay women, but it just means homosexual (or sometimes more generally not heterosexual), regardless of sex or gender.
Cambridge: “sexually or romantically attracted to people of the same gender or sex”
Merriam-Webster: “of, relating to, or characterized by sexual or romantic attraction to people of one’s same sex”
Oxford: “sexually or romantically attracted to people of the same sex”
Brittanica: “sexually or romantically attracted to someone who is the same sex”
Wiktionary: “Possessing sexual and/or romantic attraction towards people one perceives to be the same sex or gender as oneself.”
Cinematography was on point, acting was excellent, score was cohesive and evocative, dialogue was well-written and compelling. I just have no idea who the target audience was.
Am I the only one who sees a burning ball of malice that knows just the way to break me down? The sun hates me!

Also, here’s the context of the post title.
As detailed in the song bio, Byrne was aping televangelists in the style of the voiceover, which is a neat tie-back to Christian Comics and the rapture.
“A reference community for data and sources,” if you can make sense of that. I’m not sure I can.
Maybe they’ve improved!
I like your comment for the most part, but:
This is assumptive and prescriptive. The link I sent demonstrates that it’s been used extensively and for a long time by people who not only read books, but write books. I’m on board that “set foot” is the better phrase and likely to be the earlier one, but trying to dictate which is correct is - respectfully - a fool’s errand.
