I doubt he's a dumbass, but he sure has absolutely zero long-term vision. Dude is all about the quarterly increases in profits, and sadly, that's all capitalism give a shit about :(

No idea, but open sourcing old game engines certainly hasn't harmed iD Software's income. It sure has gained them near-universal praise though.

I have a better idea: Crytek should open source it so people can legally do those things

Can it play Crysis?

Honestly, 'Kilmisters' was right there

at what point are we customers going to revolt and demand ownership rights over things we pay for? I pay $300 for a copy of some software I don't own and won't even install after a certain amount of time? I have to submit to forced updates that break functionality I rely on, but any feedback I give is ignored? I'm not allowed to resell games I've finished and no longer want or need in my collection?

I have an expensive computer, but all the processing happens "in the cloud"?

Fuck this.

I'm just kind of sick of Android in general, tbh. Google has killed off almost everything that made it fun to play with new Android versions, and somehow made it less intuitive/easy to use for advanced/experienced users in the constant pursuit of - ironically - ease of use. For example: why is it now a swipe and three taps to disable wifi in the Quick Settings panel, when previously it was a swipe and one tap?

Same! Fart jokes are very funny though. People who don't find farts funny are choosing to have less joy in their life but the same amount of farts ;)

it's lovely and whimsical! Much better than just "posts" which is what they've renamed them to :(

as disgusting as it feels, I think paying for Youtube Premium is a pretty good deal. You get no ads, and creators get much, much more money per view. I'm not sure what it is for videos, but with Youtube Music, by band gets literally ten times as much per listen from as Premium subscriber than an "ad supported" one. Given the sheer amount of otherwise free high quality material on the platform, the tiny amount they ask each month for it is pretty decent. IMO, YMMV, IANAL, consult your doctor before taking, etc

As a guy, I love this story

I'm not quite a raging lefty, but I'm definitely a lefty.

I would not class the goings on over at lemmygrad as "communism" at all. It's absolutely unhinged pro-Russian flavour fascism. Marx would be rolling in his grave; nobody in their right mind should be glorifying anything Stalin did, ffs.
