Even the upstarts are cashing in. I believe CXMT is making some serious cash now.
Just yesterday I saw people saying that Apple wouldn't increase prices until the next refresh. And I agreed! So… holy shit. I think we're going to see even further price increases across the industry. There already were…
Yeah. Sorry if it wasn't clear, it's a stupid habit I picked up from Twitter that I can't quite get rid of.
That's the exclusive work of the Hyprborean dev (who himself is another giant crock of shit who I wish just wouldn't wake up ever again one day). You can install it on your normal, average Arch installation anyways.…

It's not hating, it's just this general reaction against strangers even seeing your posts. I haven't actually been subject to this, yet, but I've seen enough people react negatively against others doing this that it…
It's not even about connecting to other people. I'm a toxic, friendless miserable asshole. I don't have anyone to connect with. All I use social media for is to look at whatever funny piece of media I'm obsessed with…

More fun driving dynamics aren't worth the extra twenty thousand dollars you need to buy the equivalent European car, let alone the ridiculous lifetime costs of ownership, such as maintenance. I mean, seriously. I can…
Systemd will reign supreme for a millennium if the answer to every question or complaint about non-systemd tools is "you're holding it wrong".
Why the fuck is it all focused on Stories? I would understand if it were like Marketplace Premium or something. Stories?
I think this is a good point: this is what they're letting us on.
You've got the good guys and the bad guys mixed up. No Meta "engineer" knows what morals or ethics even are, much less actually apply them in real life.
Regarding Rwanda, I think we're forgetting that a large part of their success comes from their plundering of the Congo's resources, mineral and otherwise. There have been two gigantic continent-wide wars over the Congo,…
Is it really scamming if it was all theirs from the start? We're all their property, you know. G-d said so.
