I applaud it, really. Maybe it won’t disrupt the system but it’s a first darn step changing habits. This is the opposite of inactivity, of laissez-faire, of “eh we can’t change anything anyway.”

I wish all of you good luck and I hope for those who do change their habits by joining an Amazon boycot the drive to keep going.

I’ve only briefly looked at the comments and my, what party poopers. Small sacrifices are still sacrifices.

On the one hand yes, but on the other hand, I really don’t want to see a power vacuum in this government right now. Before you know it, Elon announces himself the One True Successor™.

Oh look, his age is setting in! He is forgetting things now!

Eh, could be worth a shot!

Most probably, and they would even do it for free in many cases.

Yet the means to democratize shitposting has some form of merit.

Well, there’s also software on vinyl! I think Techmoan has something on that.

And for how long will they be optional this time?

And yet I somehow have a very nagging feeling that they screw it up somehow. Either some expansions missing, lincensed content packs (like the Ikea one) not available or some financial decision that will bleed any fan dry more than anything.

Let’s see when the “one account does all” model makes a return and becomes mandatory.

I give it until 2026.

Yeah, the accumulation of minor issues in the world building is getting out of hand.

Listen, I keep saying that reality is better satire than satire, BUT COME ON!

To make your own distro, you will need two key things: a budget and people. Given how cutting budgets is also a thing with many government things, you run into danger of lesser maintenance standards of the distro as time progresses. Be it important as it may, the institutions will have to shell out money to make and support a standardized system. Using a mainstream or larger existing distro that also covers enterprise use cases can at least offset some of these troubles. Being able to and actually making it a reality are two different things, sadly.

I can’t! I steal my stuff from here!

Oh great, so the AI summary basically turns mum’s texts into dad’s texts!

I’ve rediscovered my passion for Satisfactory once again. In my last save, I’ve made the mistake of rebuilding many of my larger factories in quick succession and the repetitive feeling and frustration I’ve caused myself sucked out the energy to play for quite a while now.

Now I’ve started a new save to see what’s new in 1.0. Semi-automatable biomass burners won me over right away. This time, I plan on not overplanning again. I’m already planning the planning prevention plan preparations.

Who knows, maybe we’ll see something like a Steam Engine processor by 2030, hah!

I’m happy I have y’all because I can satisfy my curiosity sparked by clickbait titles without ever giving those a click.

Seriously, the digest alone looks like the full thing is an absolute non-article.

I’d actually argue that most shareholders do know what a bad move it is but are willing to stay around for it because the average consumer has proven to begrudgingly live with adverts everywhere. Amazom gets away with it on Prime, mobile ads are even worse, and Youtube gets away with it despite the outrage… I wonder whether the ads would also lead to an ad-free Windows 365 subscription for consumers analogous to Youtube Premium.

Now I can’t not think about this.
