So mad at them for cancelling that. It was a bright spot in a bleak landscape at the time.

Oh, that sucks. I hadn’t heard about that cancellation. Still, SpaceX set an unreasonable timeline and expectations of the client, and that should have consequences.
yeah, I haven’t had issues getting a webcam to work in years, just plug and go
That would be a very interesting virus.
I’ve been using rspamd for a while. It may be extensible to do token based classification like you want but it may take some work.
They abandoned Linux support. Fuck them. It was one of the only games that did. Linux users were a bug part of their initial success, and they dumped us as soon as the money came in.
Never too late. If they stop now, in a few years most of their collected data is irrelevant or stale.
I feel you’re being a little defeatist.
I’m hoping that Nebula, being run as a coop, will avoid much of that ‘growth at any cost’ mindset.
At work, when I did desktop support, the number of people who would just hit their power bar when they left every day…
I didn’t say it was. I watch Youtube as well. Do not put words in my mouth.
This is a perfect example of someone saying “I like beans” and someone responding “WELL YOU MUST HATE TOMATOES THEN YOU NAZI LOVER” or something. :P
It can work out financially - I don’t know how they do it specifically, but suppose they put all the lifetime subs into one investment pool and used the interest on that to fund operations.
$300 can generate $20 per year for them. So I benefit by only having to pay once, and they benefit by getting a chunk up front instead of having it drip out over time.
Up front cash can also mean the ability to invest in larger things. They can put it into infra budget instead of ops budget.
Nebula is really good. I just bought a lifetime sub. Expensive but pays itself back in only a few years. Plus the creators there run it as a coop that has a takeover poison pill of some kind.
You would also ruin the cocoa.
Not necessarily, I find it moronic too. Like why is it even a discussion? Let people do what they want. It doesn’t harm anyone and might make them a lot happier.
I find a good shovel adequate defense against a cow. And don’t be in a situation where there’s an angry bull. Shockingly easy to avoid that.
That’s fair, I pictured it as more a home system.
That said though:
It goes to show that people are complex, and contain multitudes. Cherrypicking isn’t a bad thing. The older I get, the harder I find it to get along with strangers, because I’ll have some point of contention with them. :/
I can’t speak for the others but Dawkins has fallen into an anti-trans rabbithole lately and has said some pretty hateful stuff. :(
