Not necessarily. If all I wanted was 'cake', then sure, I'd go for the free cake and the people selling cakes would lose out.

But the people who are selling cakes have to give me a reason to buy from them. It has to be a better tasting cake, it has to be delivered faster, it has to be fresher. If the people selling cakes can't do that, then it's their shitty business model, and not the fault of the people giving cakes away for free.

Take GIMP vs Photoshop for example. Photoshop is objectively better than GIMP, which is why people still pay for it. Now if Adobe decides to just sit on their laurels and one day GIMP improves and passes them in terms of capability, then that's Adobe's shitty business model, and not GIMP's fault.

Sure, but do you live within a few hundred feet of a shelter? Do you walk your dog during the day and see the the daily cavalcade of ambulances and police cars stopped outside one? Ever been stopped at a red light outside your building and had someone walk up to your window asking for change, then curse and spit on you because you don't carry cash?

There's a huge difference between helping people get back on their feet, and just sheltering drug addicts.

I don't even understand how Wayland has diehard fans. Do they just exit out from their hyperland rice into an X11 session whenever they need to share their screen during a Teams meeting, or do they just say "if it doesn't work on Wayland it sucks and I don't use it".

So it looks pretty much like the same story from the movie, even has the same cast (doing voice over instead of acting).

So... why?

The article doesn't mention that YouTube/Google were involved at all. It was the record labels that filed the suit.

... has been blocked due to copyright infringement claims by major music labels Sony, Warner, and Universal ...

In hard cheese if you can cut an inch or two in every direction

Look at Mr Money bags over here, throwing away 3-4 inches of cheese when even the store brand stuff is like $15 a block!

  • patched dwm

  • obsidian

  • discord, element

The only real piece of software I don't like is Zoom; it's the most badly behaved app I've ever seen. Suck my balls Zoom, stay in your own god damned workspace.

I thought the shortage of toilet paper was over?

You could add a backdoor only you know.

Anyone determined will find the backdoor with enough determination, even in the dark.

How fucking bad does your math need to be to not realize that 250k in refunds for a 6 month period where the app is unusable equals 250k in revenue for the first 6 months of the year? All y'all are like "dev needs to eat, he deserves our support!" and the guy's pulling down over 500k/year.
