At the moment it looks like what the market is demanding. A few years ago specialisation was in

Springtails and certain mites also love to eat fungus. I use them to keep mold under control in my terrariums

The main issue with YouTube premium is the price, I can’t imagine that they’re making anywhere near $14 a month from showing me ads that I never click on. I’d love to see a breakdown, including how much is subsiding free users, how much is going to creators, and how much is going into the pockets of shareholders.

I think like most if not all of the people I know would easily pay $5 dollars for premium

Women can experience internalised misogyny, you can also internalise your misandry

I know you peeps probably didn’t mean it this way, but men fall victim to the same psychological traps women do. It’s not that easy to just leave a bad relationship, especially if you don’t have the expectations and tools required to identify what’s not normal

So CrowdStrike shouldn’t allow real time threat protection? That’s what caused the issue. It needs to update its threat library to do deal with any day 1 attacks. It’s one of the main reasons it’s used

Forced updates of an optional corporate anti-virus designed to immediately detect and distribute information on threats should be illegal?

Or is this just an unrelated comment?

I don’t understand how so many people are taking “Program with level 0 access shipped faulty code that caused the OS to refuse to boot until a single file is removed” as “Windows bad lmao”. Not that I disagree with Windows bad, just the over liberal application and acting like this is some sort of Linux win.

Give me kernel level access and I can make anything refuse to boot

Just to clarify, at different times and on certain specific distros. So the meme is still correct. It’s not strange that a bug several months ago isn’t affecting Linux at the same time as the Windows bug.

The Linux people can be annoying, but that’s not an excuse to spread arguably false or irrelevant information

I’ve been playing with this thought for a while, and it’s nice to see someone else express it

tbf, it’s likely significantly cheaper than the 30% margin. I still think it’s silly though

By making it seem that Steam is raking in money and uh, money bad?

The case seems like such a reach. At worst it’s an effective monopoly for devs, not consumers. Devs have a really hard time selling elsewhere.

That said, I love Steam and think it’s genuinely one of the best companies out there. And whilst it’s not great that they’re so big, they aren’t that big due to anti-competitive behaviour. It’s quite the opposite. You can add non-Steam games to your library and use Steam features. The fucking Steam deck isn’t locked down, and you can install non-Steam games. Just because Uplay wants to log me out every time I reboot doesn’t mean Steam should be sued.

There are so many other companies more deserving of the lawsuit

You’re welcome <3 You seem like a kind person, and those people are easily taken advantage of. I don’t like seeing people lose that kindness because they forget to put themselves first.

This person you’re dealing with could have any number of good and valid excuses for their behaviour. But it’s still straight up abusive, and could equally stem from a harmful and malicious place. Unless you know for sure, the best you can do is not antagonise them.

An official report would be valid in your situation. But I wouldn’t get involved any further. Just save her messages and any evidence you have of her behaviour, on the off chance it does escalate and you or another coworker need to protect yourselves

Whilst I agree with the above, remember to look out for number one. It’s important that you prioritise your own mental, physical, social, and financial wellbeing over that of a coworker you don’t seem to know all that well.

It’s important to give the benefit of the doubt and be charitable when you can, but not at any significant expense to yourself

The people who are more likely to retain a PC and not just use a phone, are more likely to be tech literate power users.

This selects against casual windows users, and selects for hardcore Linux users

Only because everyone’s on edge, give it a few years and they’ll need “anonymised” data collection to “help improve their service”

Thank you my dude 🙏

Totally, the other thing both of your examples did well is actually integrate the “Woke™” elements into their world in a natural and believable way. None of it unearthed established canon or went out of its way to score rainbow capitalist diversity points

I feel like a lot of “woke” shows are not great, but they get a cult of defenders and haters boosting it’s popularity because of some perceived culture war. When it’s really just execs trying to make their milk toast milquetoast slop shamelessly appeal to a wider audience.

No one complains about Spiderverse (after it came out) because it was good
