    Like Microsoft enabling existing customers to download Win11 for free but I’d need a fucking new computer so I’ll switch to Linux when support for 10 ends ?

      Enabling as in justifying something that normally cannot be justified.

        Enabling is more than justification. It’s behavior that fuels another behavior.

        Giving a dog a treat every time he rolls over, is enabling the dog to roll over more often.

        Giving a junky cash for “groceries” every time they’re in a pinch, is enabling their drug use.
