The discussion around special offers and pricing are actually why I don't subscribe to a lot of things.

It always feels like there's likely going to be a better deal if I just go away and wait and don't bother right now, which typically means I forget I was even interested.

I'd rather places be honest with pricing than play those variable price games because it always feels like I'm going to get scammed if I don't just do nothing and see if the price gets better.

Sounds like he's confused AI and a replicator, neither of which are going to solve his problem of being a complete moron.

The major benefit is that a co-op is owned by the people who live there.

That's still a MASSIVE improvement over outside ownership by someone who is just there to make money.

It's a step in a better direction, if maybe not the ideal solution.

Turned everything into a co-op and killed all the landlords?

Maybe we should try that outside of a video game, too.

Sounds like they're using it on their desktop, so passthru is probably going to be a mess regardless of hypervisor type, since they probably can't do exclusive access to it.

You know, I'd agree with you if it wasn't for the people who were literally in the hospital dying of COVID yelling how it's fake news right up until they drowned in their own goo.

That seriously shook my opinion that a human could typically at least be counted on to do the right thing when they were going to die if they didn't.

I'd love to know what the death percentage needs to be for it to go from 'fake news' to actual problem.

I'd say there's probably NO amount of deaths that could possibly cause that for those people.

Amused that the 'This is private! You no hack!' banner nonsense isn't a dead thing yet.

Life protip: the bots scanning your shit will absolutely not care, and shockingly, criminals will also absolutely not care.

Oh look, a patent troll.

At least they're going after two of the most valuable companies on the planet, and not shitting on a bunch of little startups, I guess.

You'd think the mods would want to remove shit like that because what in the fuck, but I guess not?

Good. He's unquestionably responsible, and deserves to rot.

I'd ask what kind of fucking idiot buys their kid a gun AFTER the FBI shows up to investigate them threatening to shoot their school up and then leaves it unlocked where the kid can access it, but well, we already know the answer there.

Yeah we did security notices based on customers doing stupid shit, and got yelled at for "annoying" them with an email every week or two, depending on when the reports we ingested were turned into notifications.

So many people screeching about spamming them, and harassing them, and how this was bullshit and they never had this problem with other PaaS platforms.

...until, of course, oopsie their shit was hacked, and NOW it's my fault we didn't warn them enough.

I am never working for THE CLOUD ever again, lol.

It is, but he's also known for not using social media at all which I'm sure makes him the right person to have an opinion we should listen to.

Probably not.

Republican's new motto: When the least you can do is too much, just accept it's a fact of life.

That's a pretty great Fairphone ad, ngl.

And yeah, you shouldn't be buying phones that are going to end up software-obsolete in 2 years. Manufacturers, you should really aim for at least 5, but more is better. You can do it!

And if you can't, then maybe your business isn't sustainable and you should consider something else, like running a lemonade stand or a kissing booth.

Ah yes, those crazy random psychos who go busting through the doors to kill kids.

Wait, sorry, I've just been informed the "psychos" in question are the children that go to the schools that are being shot up. Welp. Certainly can't do anything about that, sorry, thoughts and prayers!

Yeah gas stations around here are more the elotes and tacos types.

Which is great, because I'd much rather have elotes and tacos than bitcoin.

I'm of the opinion that if you can charge all sorts of accomplices with murder for doing FAR LESS than buying the guy who did the murder a gun, those parents should be arrested, tried for murder for each dead kid and teacher, then locked the fuck up until everyone forgets they exist and/or they die in prison.

Honestly I get the feeling the problem they're having right now isn't that it was hard to report things to the moderators to action, but rather that telegram is a haven for people who were absolutely there to do unsavory things and were unlikely to report each other.

Perhaps I've misunderstood?

Yeah I've seen one Bitcoin ATM in person, and it was unplugged and had a sign saying it's broken.

I'm not sure where I'd even go to find one if I had to, but I suppose the scammers have a list or something.
