He’s also the reason no conservatives believe in climate change. He started the meme that it’s a socialist conspiracy to extract money out of the US. So not only did he not contribute anything worthwhile, he actively worked to make money at the whole world’s expense.

No, they still exist.

In this week’s totally grassroots and natural discussion topics I keep seeing these two themes repeated over and over again (here and elsewhere): Open source developers should be paid employees - nay they must be! - oh and Firefox sucks. Boy does it suck. They’re going to be just like Chrome, just watch.

It’s like the “No for real bro I totally love paying for YouTube what the hell is wrong with you you freeloader” shit all over again.

I don’t feel like an oligarch.

I recently was holding out hope for a franchise that was similarly treated. I can tell you from experience that Sims 5 will make a billion dollars and they will then fire all the programmers who made it.

God I know, Twitter is just the worst!

Not a cent of it was my money.

Oh FFS Akiva Goldsman and JJ Abrams? Well glad we all enjoyed the first one because the sequel is going to SUCK.

Make your own instance and ban that mod from it.

“I want to press the button - an essay” - actually funny stuff! I didn’t expect to chuckle, but I did several times. Wishlisted to keep an eye on it!

Do you exit it with escape colon q bang?

No, mid 70s but try as I might ffs, I can’t remember which of these was the culprit. I want to say the John Saxon one, because it was always John Saxon. But even then I am unsure.

I mean, this all sounds like shit, yes. But sometimes things are only a little bit shit and yet the answer is still “redesign the approach” (ie: start over).

There also is a Wikipedia article which I think is not written that well. And a lot of education material by churches or religious organizations which I did not cite for obvious reasons.

That’s because Christian apologists constantly brigade those articles.

Edit: lol, and downvote lemmy comments I guess

Oh god, I know all of these.

Also fuck Tim Kosse. Bundled Filezilla with malware and fucked up my machine in 2014. Had to reinstall Windows. I’ll never use it again.

I use WinSCP on Windows and Forklift on MacOS.

I’m not certain “narcissist” is the right word.

Tin-foil hat time but I’d be willing to bet they have mechanisms to do something resembling naked shorting with crypto. I have no idea what that voodoo might be, but they conjure shares out of thin air for shorting stocks, and they’ve managed to package crypto into ETFs some-fucking-how so why not. I feel like I’m increasingly noticing that nothing really seems to crash anymore.
