This should cover their asses on that big lawsuit they just lost for harassing that poor old couple. Projected profits would be down ~$300m over the period of time they intended to pay this out, I assume, not much of a mathematician. Gross.
Aren’t Linux people usually programmers anyway? Why develop for developers?
even if it means providing value for some of the stupidest and most malignant people in the world at the same time
This is so emblematic of the human condition. Poisoning ourselves to relieve stress, buying slave-made clothes to stay warm. Burning our skin to attract mates. Toxifying our own environment for convenience. Humans really are some dumb ass creatures. We are reaping what we sow.

Especially relevant considering you can run your own, reputable software on any half-decent PC to generate AI images (not that you should use such a software for this purpose) without ever visiting a sketchy advertiser.
I dunno, that’s pretty subjective really. I’ve seen people who do hard stuff like heroin and meth just straight up quit after using shrooms once, having had an epiphany that they need to live cleaner. Then I’ve seen a young guy stay awake for days talking about how he found the secret to never dying, because he realized sleep is a conspiracy… So maybe you’re right, I dunno lol.
Why not wood? I guess progress is funny like that. We reach the end of one era where we’re masters at one technique, only to leap to the next era where we’re completely clueless using a new one. I’m sticking with wood, it’s been good to me lol.
It’s more obvious than that even; their SEC paperwork states that adblockers are a risk to their profits. That’s more than enough info to assume they’re going to go to war in the near future (now) with them.
It’s pretty simple actually. Big companies took billions upon billions of dollars in federal subsidies and grants handed out to them via taxation of the public, then when they got just about done building the thing they spent all our money on, they erected a nice shiny gate at the front and charged us admission. But not before bribing donating to criminals politicians to ensure zero competition or risk to their non-investment. It’s rampant capitalism defined.
Because material conditions are consistently hovering juuust above revolt levels. If we want a massive sweeping change, shit will get worse first. People will demand change, but I believe a large portion of society will have to be starving and on the streets before we consider movement that actually does anything to change the status quo, due to the risk of death.
Woah there! What are ya; one o’ them filthy pinkos?
I like that you came to set the record straight, then just guessed. Confidence is sexy.
Kind of like when George Carlin said ‘if you want better politicians; make better people.’
I swear the way IT people speak about non-IT people is so funny. You guys act like everyone is borderline retarded because they don’t know intricate details of your hobby/career. Acting like you’re a part of some other group that doesn’t understand human beings and their attraction to shiny things. It’s like watching an alien try to sneak into society.
‘Friends’ was one of the biggest tv series in nearly every country, it’s not just good ol’ American hubris, nor unimportant news to people throughout the world who enjoyed his work. Artists who are known around the world make headlines all the time, no less when they die, obviously. I certainly doubt anyone would read of Patrick Stewart dying, only to rush to the comments to say how irrelevant this British actor’s passing was.
Hey, I make that!
eBay does this too. They told me they can’t access my data to delete it, that I have to log in with their website or app and send information to just get my data, let alone have it deleted.
You have vastly underestimated how much I want people to see my pussy.
You think that’s bad, you should take a gander at the official news sources in Jacksonville Florida. I don’t know if they’re still this bad, but as I recall they have not one, but at least two big news publications, both produce articles that look like they were written by grade schoolers. Anything that wasn’t copy/pasted from the AP seems to be written hastily by somebody who dropped out before understanding English. I’m sure many other cities have the same issue. The one is called news five or Jax 5 news, and the other is first coast news. They’ll hire anybody to write apparently.
