Consumers don’t need to know how the sausage is made, but they sure as fuck know if it tastes good. Ignoring criticism because consumers don’t know how the sausage machine broke is how you get endless news articles pointing and laughing at Bethesda.

The customer is always right goes beyond the literal words. Perchance it’s a lesson that needs relearned.

Only way to stop piracy is to make it easier and cheaper to buy the goods legitimately in all corners of the world. Since that won’t be happening, and since so much content is an outright gamble if it’s even any good, piracy will continue to grow.

Google claimed to be open but ran backroom deals to ensure low competition. In doing so it proved its weight in the industry could squash competition, proving its monopoly, which is illegal.

Apple never made claims it was open.

As simple as. Toss in one case was decided by a jury, and the other a judge, and you’ll quickly see neither are related.

Basically your question was nonsense from the jump, and pushed by blogs and the like to get idiots to click. Had you read the news, you’d get it. By why read when others will explain it for ya.

Lol, why own up to adding animations the system can’t handle when you can blame app and web devs? Gnome users always know where the blame should be laid, and it’s never Gnome.

Not only slow, it drops frames constantly. Doesn’t matter how good your hardware is.

There’s always the Android route, why fix the animations when you can just add high framerate screens to all the hardware to hide the jank. Ah, who am I kidding, Gnome wouldn’t know how to properly support high framerates across multiple monitors either. How many years did fractional scaling take?

Lol, how does this change the fact their work stinks? Maybe if they didn’t suck at designing the hate would stop? Nah, guilt trip the users instead, that’ll fix it. Free crap is still crap, and pointing it out isn’t a sin. If the devs can’t deal with that, maybe they should go home and cry about it instead of further shitting up the code.

Devs don’t owe users anything? Guess what, users don’t owe devs shit either. If they don’t like criticism, tough tittys, cause shit code will be criticized, which is why Gnome is still considered a joke.

Been ordering from this shop for years, way back when he was cutting foam himself with a cheap laser cutter. He leveled up with the rise of the hobby, bought an industrial cutter from China. China did what China does, fucked him, the machine didn’t work. Fucked the store up for a good while (I’m sure some of you remember the delay in foam), he eventually found someone to cut the foam in Asia and that worked out well.

Seems some GBs didn’t go well for him either, though I hear designers were also flakes.

Basically, dude made a proper go, things didn’t work as planned. Now it kinda sounds like he is terminal, or at least sick enough that things like exits scams are probably the last of his worries.

Rough situation. And more stores will be closing I’m sure, this won’t be the last. Still sucks to see. What other store would commission a freaking X-Files deskmat other than MKUltra? What I really loved was the conspiracy notes included with each order.

Sadly the rest of us have to live in reality. Have fun railing against one of the few sites left that makes an effort. Soon there won’t be any and your fantasy world will magically come true. You’ve definitely thought this through. ;)

The fun of using AdSense or any other ad network. Surprise, Google doesn’t actually vet its ads.

This is why blocking adblockers isn’t safe, Google still can’t guarantee its ads are safe. At the same time, the site doesn’t earn without doing this. Tough spot to be in. This is why so few private sites are left, Google and the rest ran em out of town by controlling the money flow, or buying em up. Valnet didn’t go on a buying spree of the remaining private tech sites for shits and giggles.
