Ceo of company is a capitalist pig who doesn’t mind associating with fascists, womp womp

I mean, signing a change.org petition has resulted in absolutely nothing, ever, so it’s not like your vote is exactly vital here

Who fucking cares what the reddit mod of /r/macos thinks man…

I couldn’t possibly care less about what a megacorp tries telling me what I may or may not do with information that can be copied perfectly and infinitely at 0 cost.

Oh cool then piracy isn’t theft.

My latest project runs on a VM I use vscode’s ssh editing feature on. I edit the only copy of the file in existence (I have made no backup and there is no version control) and then I restart the systems service.

So what if I mess it up? Big deal. The discord bot goes down for a few minutes and I fix it.

Same goes for the machine configs. Ideally the machines are stable, the critical ones get backups, and if they aren’t stable then I suppose the best way to fix it would be in prod ( my VMs run debian, they’re stable).

Gaspacho perhaps? Frozen soup is just fancy ice cubes :D

Very hot!

See the Nothing Phone (2a)

The people responsible for Titanfall no longer work there. Apex is basically on life support by devs that came in after the game released. Nothing good could come out of tf|3

Yeah it does

Because this is a safe space, not connected to my real life identity.

Doesn’t this mean that the system is never up to date? If so, please don’t.

This is precisely what the “much privacy, muh data” crowd was warning us us against. I try to avoid saying I’m queer online, because there’s a very real chance my government turns fascist and asks google/facebook/whatever for a list, and they haven’t given me a reason to think they wouldn’t give that list without thinking about it twice.

I agree with the overall sentiment, however:

Lootboxes are at least a conscious action you must take. They definitely have the same problems as gambling (because that’s what they are), but you can also choose not to engage with them. Ads however, are forced upon you, and do things that you cannot see (track you) and cannot turn off.

I mean fair enough but in the context of indies trying to “hack the algorithm”, you’re probably not even a target because you don’t even look at the Steam store.

Doctorow has never been a practical thinker. That’s just not what he does.

Yes but you have to lobotomize the frogs first.

Either Seagate is doing it or all the retailers get them from the same source (which may not be Seagate) that is doing it or is contaminated by fulfillment pooling

Pretty much all monitoring solutions on the market track cert expiration nowadays. I get an alert when any of my certs have <5 days left
