Agreed, because them majority of them speak for money and not for people.

Tile would be a poster child for this.

It begs to run constantly and acts pissed when you don’t allow it.

Ah. Thank you, that clarifies things; along with a cuppa java.

Confused? No. Seeking an apt analogy for this situation? Yep. Can you provide one, please?

“And regulating an industry which is on the cusp of working with our government and the states to bring internet everywhere finally could really jeopardize that critical and bipartisan goal by creating regulatory overhang, disincentivizing investment.” said Jonathan Spalter, president and CEO of broadband industry group USTelecom.

WTF bullshit is he spouting? Hate to break it to ya bud, the internet was conceived and executed…by the government. Or did you forget DARPA? On the cusp,ppphht.

And the rest of that word salad? Regulatory overhang? Disincentivizing? It’s all doublespeak for “padding shareholders pockets”.

The 21st century version of a DOS TSR program?

A fuckton of R&D dollars are circling the drain at this point.

Would wager it will earn a place next to the cube.

I beg your pardon, this is cannabis’ high HOLY day. 😶‍🌫️

The meat of the matter is summed up nicely in the following paragraph:

Mr. Trump is at heart a billionaire doing favors for other billionaires by cutting their taxes and eliminating or not enforcing rules that protect the rest of us from asthma and cancer. During his four years in office, he managed to dismantle or degrade over 100 environmental rules, which brought real-world death and suffering. The medical journal The Lancet estimated that in the year 2019 alone these policies led to 22,000 excess deaths from heart disease, asthma and lung cancer, among other causes.

Regionally? The Welman Project attracts many around here.

They are obviously of the “If-It-Ain’t-Broke-Don’t-Fix-It” people. A once dominant group, they also age slowly, have the longest memories and loquaciously share them.

Sadly, you’ve linked the thumbnail.

Oh, def. The fun has just begun.

^This. End stage capitalism at its finest.

CCP missed the memo, identity politics is dead.

End stage capitalism. The snake is eating its tail.

Shit. Here come the commercials on AppleTV+.

In his blog post, Tan defended the subscription-only licensing model, calling it “the industry standard.”

“Industry standard” my ass.

If Adobe hadn’t started the trend by lusting after Blizzard’s subscription model and ultimately emulating it, we’d all be a lot better off.

Not to mention our wallets being eternally thankful.

Yet another reason that odious orange toad should be denied a second term.

TL;DR? > The problem is strictly speaking not even in curl code. It comes with the version of LibreSSL that Apple ships and builds curl to use on their platforms.

But because they’re Apple (right next to the Pope, for infallibility), they know best; same old story, rinse’n’repeat.

Really liked their stuff back in the day. Now? It’s another walled garden they scrabble to maintain.
